High glare, low satisfaction
Disappointed. Yes, it's big and has lots of pixels. But I shopped and shopped trying to find a non-glare, matte LG screen for my computer. This wasn't it. Mostly I see the windows in my office — can't even use the left 20 percent of the monitor. All the LG chats, GPT queries and web searches returned contradictory advice. In-store product experts were absent. I finally took a shot on the 43QNED82A. Missed the target. But wait, there's less: The remote control is a bad joke, the user interface is anti-intuitive, and nothing is documented. Disappointed.

Sound Quality Stinks!
Picture quality is good but I would say if you were watching another lower priced brand you would not notice the difference. The one thing that disappointed me the most (to the point I'm considering a return) is the sound quality. AI sound doesn't allow you to customize using the equalizer and standard sound which does allow the equalizer doesn't produce anything decent. Overall every sound option & setting just makes the tv sound like it's in a tin can. The sound is very hollow & I just can't get past that. People say add a sound bar but that seems like a waste considering the tv isn't cheap. The remote is difficult to navigate with the pointer always seeming like it wants to point somewhere else. The TV does not display the time so if you're watching tv and want to know what time it is, don't trying pressing the menu button. Overall, this tv is more like using a computer than a tv. If you want to watch regular stations, you're better off with an older tv that performs basic functions. I'm not concerned with downloading a bunch of random, untested apps to put on my tv. If I wanted to do that, I have a cell phone with unlimited internet. Overall I'm super disappointed!

Perfect TV for Our Bedroom
We purchased The LG 43-inch 82A QNED 4K TV for our bedroom to replace a 16 year old Sony 1080p TV that finally gave up. It has a substantially better picture -- very sharp, better contrast and blacks, and bright colors and picture. I like the LG OS and (unlike many people) also like the "Magic" Remote, just be patient and learn to use the pointer. All in all, we are very happy with the TV and will seriously consider getting a larger size of the same model for our basement family room. The TV works beautifully with Verizon Fios. The TV speakers sound a little thin and lack bass, but that was an issue with every brand we looked at. Just get an inexpensive sounbar and the problem is solved.
