Update to my previous answer: so apparently what the LG representative told me over the phone was incorrect; however, I did find info that this specific model In all sizes has two HDMI ports with 4K/120P RGB 4:4:4 10-bit support, and the other two with 4K/60P 4:4:4 RGB 8-bit support. So this isn’t fully 2.1, but it has some 2.1 features and should be able to handle the bandwidth needs for next generation consoles.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.So I was initially confused when I saw the LG representatives respond to your question mentioning that this 2020 TV model contains HDMI 2.0b ports as several tech reviews and the LG website page for this TV model mentions that "the latest HDMI ports with extra bandwidth" is a feature presented on this model. I called LG's customer service line and asked them this question and a representative named Ash mentioned that this TV does feature HDMI 2.1 in all 4 ports. eARC is a feature of HDMI 2.1 so I had a feeling this had HDMI 2.1 in at least one of its ports, but I just wanted to double check due to the confusion with LG's response here. This confirmation was only provided for the 86" model of this TV (86UN8570PUC), so I am unsure of the specifications for the 82" and 75" model at this time.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi Tony. The LG Electronics - 86" 8 Series - 4K UHD TV - Smart - LED - with HDR, Model # 86UN8570PUC does not have HDMI 2.1 ports. It does not support VRR and will not be receiving an upgrade later this year for FreeSync, but it does support ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode). HDMI 3 also supports eARC...^IFV
