”LG's mid-tier OLED is the best you'll find at this size.” ’What Hi-Fi?’ 2023 award-winner.

The LG OLED that’s perfect for smaller rooms and desktops

For many years OLED was only available as a 55 inch screen or above. With the recent advent of 42 inch OLED panels, the LG OLED42C34LA brings the brilliance of OLED to smaller spaces. Ideal for use in smaller rooms and secondary rooms, such as bedrooms and the home office, this LG 42 inch TV also makes the perfect desktop TV/monitor combo. Pair with your games console for responsive gaming and all the Smart TV benefits that a monitor can’t deliver.

OLED, enhanced by evo
LG’s OLED evo panel takes an already ‘gold standard’ in TV technology and makes it better. OLED uses self-illuminating pixels for superb contrast and picture realism. Evo technology enhances this with an additional luminous element that makes the picture brighter and the colour more vivid. Put simply, for a combination of natural, lifelike images and vivid detail OLED evo is the one to beat.

New Alpha 9 Gen 6 processor with Alpha Reality
LG’s sixth generation Alpha 9 processor now features Alpha Reality for the most optimised picture yet. Alpha Reality includes AI Super Upscaling Pro – delivering the best possible picture from sub-4K sources, maximising the screen’s potential. OLED Dynamic Tone Mapping Pro uses four times the zone mapping (now 20,000 zones) for enhanced HDR contrast. Object Enhancer and HDR Expression Enhancer optimise specific picture elements for enhanced sharpness.

The beauty of HDR detail – including Dolby Vision
With wide-ranging HDR compatibility, the LG OLED42C34LA maximises media content, giving you the very best levels of detail. Compatible with Dolby Vision, HDR10 and HLG, this LG TV finds detail, even within the darkest areas of the screen, giving you a clearer insight into movies and a gaming advantage with your console.

See the picture exactly as originally intended, with Filmmaker Mode
If you’re mad about movies, you’ll love Filmmaker Mode. Designed in collaboration with filmmakers and Hollywood studios, Filmmaker Mode lets you experience the cinematic vision, exactly as the director intended. Overriding the TV’s own motion and picture processing, Filmmaker Mode presents the correct aspect ratio, colour and frame rate – just as the filmmakers intended.

Sound enhancements – made even better with a matching LG soundbar
It’s not just the picture that benefits from LG’s latest processor, the sound does, too. Virtual sound channel up-mixing increases from 7.1.2 to 9.1.2, giving an even more immersive sound. Pair with an LG soundbar and the sophisticated processing splits the total sound output between TV and soundbar, for a richer, more enveloping sound.

Enjoy ultimate gaming
More than just a winner with movies, this LG is the gamers’ choice, too. LG’s Game Optimiser utilises an enhanced gaming menu, giving you quick access to important settings. A selection of game genre presets, including one for sports games for example, tailor the image to suit the game type. Equipped with 48Gbps HDMI 2.1 sockets, it’s designed to get the very best from today’s, and future, games consoles. QMS (Quick Media Switching), ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode) and VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) mean that your TV automatically adjusts to the optimised settings for gaming – giving you a smoother and faster response.

Smart TV made simpler, with webOS 23
Widely regarded as one of the best smart TV platforms, LG’s webOS system continues to be the system to beat. The latest webOS 23 is easier to use with new Quick Cards folders. These group related content together, making it easier to find the app or source you’re looking for. Recommendations and favourite apps feature on the home screen and are now bespoke to individual users for a more personal interface.

The hub of your home entertainment – with voice control
Featuring LG’s ThinQ AI technology, you can control a Home IoT ecosystem with natural voice recognition. With both Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa built-in, it makes it even easier to control your LG OLED TV and quickly access the entertainment you’re looking for.

Introduce OLED evo to smaller spaces and see the difference, with the LG OLED42C34LA.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great television.If only.... We were delighted to receive our new TV very promptly and are very pleased with the way it has performed over the last week. The picture and sound quality is certainly up to the standard we had been led to expect from our research before buying this model. Our one disappointment was that although there was a sheet of paper outlining how to attach the TV stand to the TV and how to attach, if necessary, to a wall, there was no printed information in the package to explain how to set up the TV and make the minor adjustments to picture and sound (and how to find subtitle controls) as necessary. As older members of society we could have benefitted from such an information booklet. We did work out how to get the basics working, but with a TV of this quality feel that we will not be able to access many of the more advanced features that this TV could provide, if the makers had enclosed some sort of user guide. Hence a four star rather than a five star rating.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great picture and sound We needed a new tv and went to the best place for advice as their knowledge of the products is very fair but valuable. It was also on offer so we were even more delighted with our purchase.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great quality TV I have to say this LG Is something else. When I finally got the TV up and running the picture quality was that good i felt quite disorientated but after about 30 mins your eyes calibrate to it fine. Reason I didn't give the Tele 5 stars is that my SKY Q box can't cope with the power of my TV.....so it trips out intermittently which is that annoying I've unplugged the box. Need to understand why that is. As I've only had the SKY BOX 2 yrs. All in all I've only had the TV 2 days so still figuring it out. Also another pain is the signing in yo LG to ctrate an account to sync with the tele but I guess that's more of a tech ology change than me getting frustrated. Once all passwords are in and connected to streaming channels absolutely fine. Just be expected to spend 1-3 hours setting up based on your tech knowledge. Definitely happy with my purchase

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Everything i want in a TV I had a Panasonic Plasma for 13 years, and I thought it was a pretty decent TV. This blows it out of the water. It makes me want to watch more tv and films, and appreciate the film and TV i already have. Picture: Extraordinary, especially in filmmaker mode Sound: Surprisingly decent and absolutely fine for 80% of people Smart Features: Hugely comprehensive, every service you'd want, and easy to navigate
