LG C1 uses the same OLED panel as many other OLED TVs, with the same anti-reflective coating.

The ballast and the front metal plate together ensure that the TV stays firmly in place. And since the stand is center-aligned, LG C1 should fit on most furniture unlike large TVs with two-legged stands near the edges of the screen. When using the stand, it is possible to route cables down through the base of the stand. It complicates things and makes it impossible to reach the ports if the TV is mounted close to the wall. Several ports, including one HDMI port, point out towards the wall. One area where LG seems to be resisting change is the connector panel. LG's more expensive G1 model has a fully integrated design – more on that later in our upcoming LG G1 review. Personally, I would prefer an overall slimmer design where the electronics box took up the whole space behind the TV instead of this more clumsy approach. The OLED panel is, of course, very thin at its upper half. The box is slightly deeper than on Sony's A90J (see photo below) and still quite big and bulky. All electronics are integrated in the box on the lower back of the TV. The stand is identical between the models and even identical to last year's CX, meaning that it has a fairly significant ballast behind the TV, to ensure stability, and a metal plate on the front.

They are technical identical and only small details like the color of the TV's back side will vary (black or white). In 2021, LG will make its C series OLED TVs available in multiple design versions (C16, C15, C14 etc). First impressionsThe design of LG C1 has not changed much compared to earlier generations, and if you are planning to wall mount the TV it is unlikely that you will spot any differences.
