    What does it mean that 42LK450 has a vesa mount?
    dannie
    about 1 year ago
    A VESA mount is a device that allows you to mount your TV on a wall or stand in a way that saves space and provides flexibility in terms of positioning. The VESA mount standard specifies the size and placement of the mounting holes on the back of the TV, and using a VESA mount can help you position your TV in a way that is visually pleasing and comfortable to view.
