PRODUCT: 48in 4K OLED TV with Dolby Vision and HDMI 2.1
POSITION: The CX series sits in the middle of LG’s 2020 OLED range
PEERS: Sony KD-48A9; Philips 55OLED805
TYPICALLY AT HCC, we celebrate the larger things in TV life. But we’re happy to make an exception for LG’s OLED48CX: the world’s first 48in an OLED TV.
This finally provides an OLED option for people who just can’t handle a 55in display in their living room. And that's something important to stress, as its £1,500 launch price now barely undercuts – if at all, by the time you read this – LG's larger 55in CX model, which launched earlier in 2020. So get your tape measure out before you buy.
The relatively petite size of the OLED48CX also feels tailor-made for the electronics world's current hot demographic: gamers. Its 48in the panel should fit nicely into studies or dedicated gaming dens and makes it easier for gamers to take in the whole screen at once rather than having to ‘waste time’ flitting their eyes around it.
