Customer Reviews
Good TV, Bad Support from LGBoyan Syarov
I got this TV 5 hours ago from BestBuy for slightly less than offered on Amazon. I've spent every minute since trying to adjust settings and get the Netflix App to work. Here are the highlights of my experience thus far:LG Picture defaults are not good. This is one of the many reasons why their TVs appear to have poorer quality when displayed next to Sony and Samsung models in stores. I was well aware of this as this is not my first LG TV. This would mean you have to spend some amount of time getting things to where you like them. In my case that would be switching to Expert1 settings and lowering the saturation down (the reds are far too saturated in all default modes, which reduces local contrast in my opinion). I also like to turn down or completely off TruMotion, but I know others prefer it especially if spending a lot of time watching sports. The two other TruMotion modes they have are "smoothness preferred" and "clarity preferred" (this is one was default). TruMotion is what's responsible for the "soap opera" appearance of movies. This has improved greatly since it was originally introduced, but I think it actually causes some digital lag in certain scenes. Don't quote me on this it's my personal, and unfounded on any evidence, opinion.HD to 4K conversion is adequate. I did not notice anything apparently wrong here, but I'm sure as I spend more time watching I would have a more to say.The 2D to 3D conversion is actually rather good. I tested by watching tennis, hockey, soccer, and a movie. Of course, the quality is far from something that is natively shot in 3D, but at least you have the option.Read more ›
Great TV for a great priceBalaji Ramasubramanian
I received this TV last week and wanted to use it for at least a week before I wrote a review. Well, after using it for a week, I can conclude that this is indeed a pretty good TV.Firstly, let me start with the delivery. The delivery was done through CEVA logistics (who are supposed to not only deliver but also set up the TV and see whether it was working well). But the problem was, I lived in a gated community and delivery usually happens to the community office. But the delivery guys called me from the lobby and brought the TV intto my apartment and set it up, so that was pretty good.Next, the picture quality. The picture quality is just amazing. I have tested my TV in light/dark conditions and with a variety of bright/dim content and have not noticed any light leakage. There is a very small blooming noticeable in the corners at very extreme lighting but that was negligible and I found it just because I was sharply looking for it. The saturation levels are very good out of the box and I haven't found any problems yet.The main reason I bought this TV was that it is a 4K passive 3D TV. Like CNET says, 4K TVs are stupid, as we don't necessarily sit at the right distance for so many pixels to even be visible to our eye. (Google for "4K Calculator - Do you benefit?") But 4K TVs are great when it comes to one thing: playing passive 3D content (as there is no loss in quality) and me being a 3D fanatic, I realized this was the best TV to buy. I mean, honestly, for the price paid for the features, this indeed was the best option (at least when I bought it). But aside from it, I decided to test some 4K content from YouTube and it turned out pretty well. The quality was great and the playback was good.The one irritating thing I found was LG TruMotion.Read more ›
Awesome 4k for the PRICE! Love the Web OS!Alan T.
I got this 4k tv today and I love it! Did all the research a man can do before buying it! I could definitely afford a 2k+ Samsung 55HU8550 but why spend that much when you can get 1 "fairly" similar TV for $500 cheaper!? Of course the Samsung has a tad bit better picture but like I said even if you're very rich you can't be throwing money away. Just try it and if you don't like it, return it.WebOS: I really love how easy it is to switch between Netflix/Hulu/cable, etc. Not sure about the guy complaining that it takes too long to load? Mine loads in a flash! Well i got Comcast internet so the internet speed definitely plays a role in that. The interface is so user-friendly I have to wonder why nobody's thought of this before! Go to the nearest Best Buy/Sam's club/HHGREGG, etc. and try it! you will not want to go back to pressing buttons anymore after you've tried the LG WebOS.3D: I like the passive 3D a lot more than the active ones. First of all, you don't need to buy expensive glasses for it to work. My daughter took home a pair of 3D theater glasses and it worked perfectly! There's also no hassle of charging/replacing batteries. Plus, the passive 3D glasses never "breaks" not like the active ones because it doesn't have any mechanical activity at all. Quality is AMAZING! 2D to 3D conversion is so-so but that's the same with all other 3D tvs. But watching Avatar 3D blu-ray blew my mind away!Netflix issue: There is no issue! Like some people said, initially it didn't run out-of-the-box but if you'd had any experience with computers/tablets/smart phones/SMART TV... you would know to check for updates the moment you get them!Read more ›
