LG LSBF012 vs Samsung IW012C

1.25 mm against 1.26 mm · specifications from both manufacturers' datasheets

Side-by-side specifications, then the same wall built from each tile, so the comparison is in panels, kilograms, circuits and data runs rather than in marketing copy.

Whole cabinets rarely hit an identical size, so each wall is the closest build to a real video format (16:9 or 16:10) near 8 m wide for that tile: 8.40 × 4.72 m and 8.06 × 4.54 m respectively.

What the numbers say

• Both resolve to about the same density (640,000 and 629,882 pixels per square metre), so pick on weight, power or what your shop already owns rather than on image detail.
• LG LSBF012 is the lighter rig: 28 kg/m² against 31 kg/m². Across this wall that is 48 kg of difference, 1,217 kg versus 1,265 kg, which moves point loads and can change the hoist call.
• LG LSBF012 draws more: 549 W/m² against 410 W/m² at full white. For this wall that is 21.8 kW versus 15 kW, and 14 versus 10 circuits at a 16 A/230 V supply with an 80% derate.
• Data is lighter on LG LSBF012: 49 runs against 50, at 1 and 2 panels per port respectively (60 Hz, 8-bit, ports loaded to 80%). Fewer runs means fewer home runs to pull and fewer processor ports to find.
• Different cabinet formats: 1200 × 675 mm against 806.4 × 453.6 mm, so 49 tiles versus 100 for the same wall. Fewer, larger cabinets build faster; smaller ones give finer control over wall dimensions and are easier to handle alone.
• Estimated truck space: 7.5 m for LG LSBF012 against 8.1 m for the other, including spares, cases and cabling.
