LG86QNED80T6A 86-Inch 4K UHD Smart TV, (α5 AI Processor Gen7, Freeview Play and Amazon Alexa, 60Hz) [Model 2024]

In short... I paid £322 for this TV and at that price it's an unbeatable deal. It makes a great affordable large format PC monitor.I have used 40"-43" TV's as my computer monitor for some time now and this is the best one yet.It has a fantastic response time meaning no noticeable lag or blur on the mouse cursor. The text is extremely sharp and it's got an excellent viewing angle with no washed out colours in the corners when sat only 70cm away. The colours are vibrant and blacks are pretty good too considering it's an IPS panel. Having a 43" variant is the perfect size for a PC monitor. Some other brands start at 50", which is far too big for this purpose.I have not used the smart or TV features, but they should be similar to my LG OLED as it has the same a5 gen7 AI processor and WebOS system, which is pretty good. The magic remote and menu's feel as responsive as on my OLED.The sound isn't brilliant as it's a little tinny and lacking bass, but that's not an issue for me as I mainly use headphones connected through a DAC from my PC. If you were to use as a TV, I would recommend a separate sound bar.My previous Hisense model lasted less than 4 years and it's a model which is still available at £279. I am so glad I paid a little bit more as this LG QNED is a far superior product.Yes, this QNED is not as good as the LG OLED I have in the living room, but that cost 3x as much.If you are on a budget and if you can stretch to £322-£350 I would highly recommend the LG QNED over the only slighly cheaper standard LED models. More so if you want to use it as a PC monitor.

First unit was DoA, fortunately Amazon quickly replaced - next day. Install on wall was fine. Setting up the apps and things you want should be easy and technically it is. However the On screen menu system is cripplingly slow and really looks like LG skimped on the available memory and processor capability. TV display is good though and Audio is fine. Going to use unit as a work monitor as well as a TV so yet to see how that goes.

Great tv, good price, amazing picture (could be faster, but hey, ok) very easy to setup. I like the fact that the VESA: 200x200 mount is the same as our old 43" tv. So far very happy with the purchase.

Great picture, hasn’t got the deep blacks of OLED but colours are great, very easy on the eye.

Why did you choose this product over others?:So far so good! It’s worth every penny.

Picture quality is great, but sound is terrible. Returned.

The sound on this TV is really really bad, you could probably get better sound from an 80's portable brick of a TV. Very surprised at the poor quality as it is a brand I usually trust, LG!! What happened!So with the combination of poor sound quality (no matter which setting it was on) and slow processing, I returned this TV.

Straight to the point…• Picture quality is great for the price (obviously not as good as oled)• Sound quality is good once played around with a little.• The menus are a little slow as stated in some other reviews but in all honesty once you've set the TV up you don't constantly go in and out of the menus.• Works well with my NAS drive without the need for any software like Plex.• The AI features seem a little gimmicky but don't have to be used, also turn off all the recommended content rubbish it'll only slow the menus down even more.
