LG 42-inch OLED TV will be postponed until early 2022
As one of the world’s largest TV manufacturers, LG plans to launch 42-inch OLED TVs early next year, which will appear in the new TV lineup in 2022. This TV is optimized for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S/X and other game consoles and is considered to be very suitable for playing games in the room.
This size of the TV is very suitable for the current global home trend, you can experience the visual enjoyment brought by large-screen games in a small room. Currently, LG’s OLED TVs have a minimum size of 48 inches. For example, the size of C1 series OLED TVs is between 48 inches and 83 inches. For some users who live in smaller units or rent a house outside, 42 inches will be more attractive. LG also hopes that this smaller size can attract more gamers, especially users with higher image quality requirements.
Market research firm Omdia predicts that this year’s 120Hz refresh rate TV panel shipments will increase by 7% compared to 2020, while the total TV panel shipments are expected to fall by 1% during the same period. This also shows from the side that the demand for game players is huge, and the number of these players is still growing.
