What's the input lag these days for Landscape 180 degree rotated mode?
Regular rotation could help with burn-in issues.

It may not cost as much as you think when panels start mass production. We are in a terrible time for monitors at the moment.Yup, expect an OLED "monitor" to cost massive money, just have to look at what is considered to be "top end" LCD monitors.... and what they are costing.....
I would have also preferred a 40" size, but this thing from a meter (or two) away is immense. I've never seen a picture like it. When it gets dark, sunlight can become blinding off the screen. And that's with OLED Light set to 50!
I have noticed that mine recognises games and movies on the Xbox and will select settings to fit. Slightly annoying but once the settings are in, we're good. The motion smoothing stuff is horrid IMO though. That's switched off for all inputs.
I am happy (and a bit envious) that you can accommodate those distances but sadly I can't, I need it around 50-60cm away so 32" would be the max I could tolerate. I wish it were otherwise as the 48 CX is clearly amazing but just too big for use at regular distances on my desk.Yeah, as I mentioned in the post you quoted, the best sized screen and the best distance to view the screen at, is a highly personal choice. Also depends on your room setup, and size of desk. Larger, deeper desk = more room for larger monitors, without having to move your head as much.
The distance I have my CX48 mounted at means I don't move my head at all. I can appreciate the resolution and detail at this distance without any kind of eye strain.

The last great monitor I had was the NEC 20WGX2 with the AS-IPS panel. It's crazy how deep the blacks were for IPS technology, I have never seen anything like it since outside of OLED. Ahh, good times.We have been for the last 4/5 years now...
@Nexus18 was it you that said you use custom resolutions to get ultrawide? If so, how do you get say 3440*1440 and the 4k equivalent?

I had one of those! Loved the glossy screen on it. I sold it on a few weeks ago actually!
The CX48 is the first monitor I've used since the 20WGX2 that has the same type of glossy panel. I really missed it, and can't believe how relatively terrible the matte or semi gloss finishes I've had on the monitors I've used in between.
I upgraded from the 20WGX2 to a NEC 24WMGX3, a 1920x1200 VA monitor. Good upgrade in terms of real estate and resolution, but didn't look half as good as the 20WGX2. Moved to a 27" BenQ XL2730Z a few years later, TN 1440P 144Hz panel. Washed out colours, horrible matte coating, but was very fast and response.
If you liked the 20WGX2 you'll love the CX48. Imagine just a bigger version, with even deeper blacks, instant response time and 120hz!
Hah you had one too, good choice! If only they had made a 24 inch version that was exactly the same panel but higher resolution as the 20gx2. Sadly it wasn't to be.I had one of those! Loved the glossy screen on it. I sold it on a few weeks ago actually!

Have any of you used the Prime Video app on this? I'm getting terrible judder with the native LG app. If I watch via Chromecast Ultra then the judder is gone but it's not HDR.

its not staying here will be going in man-cave eventuallyWould that not look amazing if you remove the picture on the back wall and wall mount the LG with a slim wall mount on the wall against the purple wall colour ?
Those 2-3 inches pushed back would also give a bit more breathing space for your eyes, maybe could move whole desk forward even if you want more space.
