LG C2 replacement options

agnes · 21 Mar 2026 at 20:49

I currently have a LG C2 and I love it. However, I'm looking for more frames as the 120hz cap is a bit painful and I feel the 42" size is just a bit too much for a desk monitor.

Are there any gloss oled panels around the 32-37" area at 4k res?

Asus XG32UCWMG springs to mind with a glossy WOLED panel. LG have an equivalent model with the same panel. Or you could look at any of the 32” QD-OLED models perhaps, they all have a semi glossy coating (glossy appearance but with some anti reflective properties)

I am in the same boat and my current PC screen is LG C3 42 inch. Have just ordered XG32UCWMG. Should I have waited for 4th gen true glossy tandem oleds or am I good? Can still cancel the order : )

I have the LG C4 42" and that is 144hz and I find it's a great gaming experience. So much so I use it more than my other 2 monitors, those both being 240hz OLED displays, AW3225QF and Samsung G9.

The S90F 42" looks a good deal ATM, I think it uses the same WOLED panel as the C5, but can he had for £660. I am somewhat tempted, but 4K isn't a jump I'm really sure I want to take as even from 1440p UW it's a lot more demanding.

My son bought one of these and its very impressive. They've gone up in price since he bought one but I am probably going to pick one up myself at some point.

I got the 27 inch version, and the quality of the screen thus far is great. Best monitor I have owned. However, note mine has no speakers.

So, after a few days with XG32 and coming from C3 42 I am absolutely in love with the monitor. The biggest difference is the crispiness of the overall picture - 140 ppi is no joke and compared to 110 ppi of C3 42 the difference is instantly noticeable. Also, for my 80cm deep desk, 32 inch screen is just better - it is less overwhelming, I do not have to move my head that much or at all any more when gaming or reading, it isn't too small and at the same time it isn't too big either. Moreover, after putting it on an arm I have more space on my desk for other things (desk is 160x80cm). Reading texts and browsing websites is also easier to do and easier on the eyes due to clearer and crisper picture and having the full screen in front of you just looking straight.
Have still a week to test it or find any defects, but I think it is a keeper.
