Q: Does this TV include a wall mount?

A: No, this TV does not come with a wall mount.

Q: What type of speakers does this LG TV have?

A: This LG TV has front-firing speakers.

Q: Can I adjust the height of the LG Flex TV?

A: Yes, you can adjust the height of the LG Flex TV to your preference.

Q: Does the LG Flex TV support HDR?

A: Yes, the LG Flex TV supports HDR and uses Dolby Vision technology.

Q: How many HDMI ports does this TV have?

A: This TV is equipped with 4 HDMI 2.1 ports.

Q: What is the response time of this LG TV?

A: This LG TV boasts a 0.1 ms response time for a seamless gaming experience.

Q: Can the curve stay at the curve you selected when turning off? I like to push it back in a corner desk and leave it curved.

A: Not sure what exactly the LG tech is stating here. She provided a very convoluted answer. I own is the FLEX and can confirm 100% that any curve setting greater than the 0% flat setting will reset back to flat whenever the TV is turned off. When it is powered back on, the curve setting is resumed. This is the standard feature of this TV and there is currently no work around. If you want the TV to keep a specific curved setting without going back to the flat position, you will have to keep the TV powered on at all times. Hopefully a future firmware update can fix this. LG has yet to explain why it's necessary to reset the TV back to a flat position whenever the TV is powered off.

Q: I would like to know if the “Lg Oled Flex” model number 42LX3QPUA can be mounted on a desk with a monitor arm please make sure because I asked LG Support spealists and they said it cannot but than I ask you guys u say yes it can just please make sure

A: No, the FLEX cannot be mounted separately using a monitor arm. The TV unit itself is integrated into a heavy desk stand and can't be separated. You may want to consider the LG C2 42" as an alternative solution as that TV comes with a VESA mount adapter and can be mounted onto a monitor arm.
