Product Information

The 4K Ultra HD (3840 x 2160) resolution and Smooth Motion technology provide a pin-sharp, stunningly realistic picture with beautifully natural motion and incredible detail. The LG displays perfect blacks, with no blooming or uniformity issues, making it a better choice in a dark room.

It's available in a wide range of sizes, from 43 to 85 inches, but the exact performance depends on which size you get.There’s also a direct LED backlight, and while there’s no form of local dimming, the direct nature of the backlight produces decent screen uniformity. It doesn't have advanced gaming features, but its input lag is low, so the overall gaming experience isn't bad. Although it has decent reflection handling, it isn't bright enough to fight glare from bright lights if you watch sports during the day. As a result, the audio performance is perfunctory at best, and the reality is that even a simple single-unit soundbar will deliver a higher quality sonic experience with content like TV shows, movies and games. However, the lack of any bass, and a tendency to sound brittle at higher volumes, makes it unsuitable for blockbuster soundtracks.

There's very little difference in the pixel response time between different transitions; they're all just okay. As a result, the overall SDR picture performance is generally impressive, with images that appear well defined and colours that look natural. The TV ships in Standard mode for SDR, which like most out-of-the-box settings is woefully inaccurate compared to the industry standards. It isn't bright enough to overcome glare in a bright living room and is best suited for a room with low levels of lighting.

The mighty screen truly makes the most of movies, with a sense of immersion that you just don’t get with smaller screens. The direct-lit VA panel delivers decent contrast and screen uniformity, despite the lack of local dimming, but its optimal viewing angles are narrow.

Big screen fun
When it comes to TV screens, bigger is best.

Unfortunately, it's poor for watching movies in dark rooms because it has a low native contrast ratio and sub-par black uniformity.

It allows HDR content to be mapped more precisely to the display’s capabilities, and watching exactly the same test material in Dolby Vision reveals HDR images free of any clipping and with saturated but natural-looking colours. It isn't bright enough to show off highlights in HDR, and without a local dimming feature, small highlights don't pop against the rest of the screen.
