LG 42-inch OLED

I've just bought a ps5 that's paired with my c8 in the sitting room so I'll wait a bit. Once I get the c2 I'll put both 3090 and ps5 in the same room and that will be dream gaming heaven for me. I'll be waiting for the 42 c2 to drop under a grand though.

Do we actually know how wide the TV is, left stand foot to right stand foot?
I know the TV is 932mm wide overall, but each foot looks about 100mm in, from each side?

Yeah, that price is silly for a 42”. Needed to be £999 to fly off the shelves.
It’s too late for me thenYup that's the one I got.
Maybe about a week or 2, got it 3 years ago so can't quite remember exactly
I can refer people and we both get cashback
How much cashback? Might do it at a later date
Do you get 1% cash back on everything?
If approved and you spend £1 you get £10It’s too late for me then

I think it has changed now but iirc when I first joined for the first year it was 3 to 5% depending on how much you spent in total. I don't think it's as good of an offer now tbh, as of now, I think it's 0.5 or 1% depending on how much your bill comes to.
I used to have Amex via barclaycard many years ago and that was 1% cashback on everything. Then they removed it and only kept the Visa card which only has 0.5% on everything which I use on big purchases usually.If approved and you spend £1 you get £10

You still can get 125 back during first 3 months:

That’s the one I would consider as no fees:

Your link has a £25 a year fee. I already have a credit card with a fee I use for shopping etc which pays for its self and leaves some cashback each month, don’t need another one with a fee, just need it for cashback offers and big purchases

Yeah the 42" should be £999.
I get the argument is that it costs them more to make tv's of this size, but it's only a matter of time til they hit that price (likely next year). I'd imagine the next series 42" will likely start at that sort of price.
I think it's difficult to justify buying the 42" (unless you're constrained by space) when for just a little bit more you can buy the next size up.
That's true - but if you want to use it as monitor 42 is actually premium over 48

Good news, thanks for flagging.
You UK people are lucky to have such discounts and promos. The Netherlands never does that. I'm not sure who said that 42" would be 999 but this is pretty disappointing so I'll probably wait till June or July or even Black Friday if the crappy prices stays that high. The prices are not silly, they are insane. For me it would be a total of €1730 including 5 years insurance.
I'll also wait on the reviews and if the ABL is still a thing. I hate it when there is dark scenes and suddenly white places like subtitles gets dimmed too.

This site can give you an impression wether you need it or not:

From pics I have seen no. Looks similar to the bigger oleds which you attach directly to the vesa mount, should be able to mount directly it looks like. I hope so anyways as mounting mine as soon as it arrives.
I think he asked for an adapter for a monitor mount - in this case we will need one, as most monitor arms have vesa 75x75 and 100x100, while 42c2 has vesa 200x300. You need adapter like this:

Ahhh got you. I thought was referring to some monitors needing an adaptor to use vesa mounts in first place.
