    I have the LG Flex 42 OLED. It's a C2 evo panel, and is absolutely fantastic. I bought it over a flat panel display specifically for use with MSFS2020. The full 900r curvature at my normal sitting distance is incredibly immersive. Having said that, I'd happily trade up if LG makes a C3 evo OLED - only make it in 48 inches.

    Hello, I don't speak English, but I can help, I had the same problem, it's a kind of panel, whatever, some don't have so many problems, but it is actually an error that I present, at first I had the 48-inch c3 but I returned it for that problem and I changed to a c3, 42 and the problem no longer existed but the oled habeces present a kind of flickering with the vrr activated that is normal, and I suppose that your panel had banding that is normal to a certain extent period, and it is solved if you do a manual pixel cleaning.
