This is an exceptional buy!
I caught this tv on a great promotion in January. I'm using it in my media room as a computer monitor/media tv. I LOVE it! I didn't realize 4K was that awesome. It has the built in smart tv which offers Netflix in 4k as well as some other apps. Lg smart tv is limited, but its quick and relatively intuitive to use. Picture and sound are both great from this tv. The one complaint i have is the remote. Holy cow. It's bad. Like really bad. In reference to how many keys there are and they are almost all the same shape. You almost have to look at this remote to tell what key you are pressing. I won't be using it much, as i will be adding steaming box soon, but it does stink. The rest of the tv is awesome. For a 4k 50in lg set, you can't beat this tv. Note, it is a 60hz set, which is fine for most viewing. The only time it may be noticeable is when watching sports. Go ahead and pick this one up if you are looking for a great deal on a 4k set.

Loved it when it worked
I bought this TV on Black Friday of 2016 and as of a week and a half after the one-year warranty the TV doesn't work at all I turned it off in the morning and came back in the afternoon and it will not turn back on, the red button blinks and then just goes out and stays out but no picture no sound just black screen the TV was great when it worked, it had a beautiful picture was much easier to connect devices to them the other two Smart TVs in the house but no TV should stop working after one year.

Works great as a 4K monitor
Connected to a Nvidia 950gx with a single HDMI cable it does 4:4:4 chroma and has such good color that it actually makes my ACER touch screen monitor look washed-out in comparison. It may actually be a little bit too big to act as a monitor, probably a 40" would by better if you are doing close work. It retains its settings as a monitor when through a power-off cycle, and hooks up easily directly to the Internet in case you want to watch movies occasionally. Sounds is good and loud, but if you want to add external sound it has to be through TOSLINK (optical) or HDMI. Doesn't do the confusing external control box setup that Samsung does. That's a big plus in my view.
