For those of you shopping around for a smaller gaming TV or a larger gaming monitor, this monster of a deal just went live. As part of the Amazon Prime Early Access Sale, you can get the 2022 LG C2 42" 4K OLED Gaming TV for only $996.99. That's $400 off the $1400 MSRP and I can say with reasonable certainty that it won't go any lower on Black Friday.The 42" replaces LG's 48" as its smallest 4K OLED TV on the market. It performs just as well as its larger sized siblings as a gaming TV, but where it really shines is as a gaming monitor for your PC. The 42" size fits gaming desks better than the 48", which admittedly is still a bit too large, especially since most of us sit only a few feet away from our monitors. It has HDMI 2.1 ports and supports 4K @ 120Hz and VRR when paired with a PS5, Xbox Series X, opr RTX 30 series equipped PC. It also boasts 4:4:4 chroma sampling for clear, sharp text as well as sub-1ms response times, ALLM, and native G-SYNC compatibility for zero tearing and ghosting. The new C2 model introduces native GeForce Now and Stadia streaming support.
The new 2022 C2 model has an improved "Evo" OLED panel over the C1. Previously reserved only for the LG G-series OLED TVs, the Evo panel offers higher brightness levels, one of the few areas that traditional LED LCD TVs have OLEDs beat. As always, OLED panel blows away any IPS, VA, or TN monitor in terms of HDR, black levels and color rendition.
The G Cloud is an interesting device with a 7-inch screen and dimensions slightly larger than a Nintendo Switch, but it also feels a bit redundant: why do we need a dedicated piece of hardware that mostly just runs games off of cloud services (it can also play Android games locally) when one of the biggest selling points of that technology is that you can use your existing laptop, smart TV, tablet, or smartphone

It doesn't have some of the gaming centric features like the 1ms response time, 240Hz refresh rate, or G-SYNC certification, but it's still a damn fine monitor with a 4ms response time, 120Hz refresh rate, and the same quantum dot LED backlit VA panel. Although it's not officially G-SYNC certified, like most monitors these days, it still actually works with G-SYNC.240Hz refresh rate, G-SYNC certification, and a quantum dot LED backlit VA panel, and you essentially have a smaller sized version of the Odyssey G9.
