Rank #8 in Best OLED TV 2026: 10 Ranked, and Why the Price Ladder Is Upside-Down
LG C4 OLED48C45LA 48-Inch OLED evo 4K Smart TV (2024)
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The LG OLED48C45LA is the 48-inch OLED evo set from LG's 2024 C4 range, listed at £799.00 and placed eighth in this guide. That makes it the cheaper end of LG's own line-up here in a way that reads backwards: the 42-inch LG C6 on this page is £1,099, so the smaller screen costs £300 more than this 48-inch one.
The listing does not fully agree with itself either. It gives 76 reviews at 4.6 out of 5, while the star breakdown underneath shows 78 five-star, 12 four-star, 5 three-star and 5 one-star ratings — 100 ratings in total, which is more ratings than the 76 the same page states. The spec table also gives 20 kg with the stand against 14.9 kg without it. None of that is our measurement: every figure on this page comes from the Amazon listing for the LG OLED48C45LA, not from testing of our own.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“I love this TV. Some of the settings aren't great out of the box. All the fluid smoothing, 'natural movement' settings make everything look like trash. But put it in Filmmaker Mode and turn up the brightness and the picture is stunning. Decent sound quality - not amazing but I haven't felt the need to upgrade to a soundbar as yet.Good price.”
Verified purchase“I'm very satisfied, I owned a 4K TV but now I've got to know the real 4K, I recommend you to buy a suitable HD 2.1 cable, the difference is big and this TV has a 2.1 HD output, the TV is easy to use, it's not very heavy or very light it's suitable, I bought it because I'm a gamer and this TV is so good for gaming as a monitor the screen seems more durable than regular TVs, Wonderfully packaged and protected screen,Thank you!”
