I like the product because it is just right not to small but just right for my needs.

LG advertises this TV as being smart but what they don't tell you is that the pre-loaded Google Assistant & Alexa apps don't function because the included remote is outdated with no microphone but if you click on let's say the Google Assistant app it shows you an "LG Magic remote" which has the microphone so you might think maybe I can buy the LG Magic Remote and everything will work as it should but that's not happening because I contacted LG and they said no version of LG's Magic Remotes are compatible with this TV(27LQ625S-PU)
Hey there. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention. The following models are compatible with our magic remotes, such as OLED Models: W8, E8, C8, B8, Super UHD Models: SK9500, SK9000, SK8070, SK8000, UHD 4K Models: UK7700, UK6570, UK6500, UK6300. ~Anthony

PROS:
Got this TV for the kitchen so I wanted a smaller screen, but 24" was too small and 32" a little too big. This was perfect.
Lightweight, so it's easily moved to another room to do work out videos or whatever. Build quality still does seem very nice and solid though.
Sound is actually surprisingly good for such a small tv! The settings allow you to change the sound "style" and there is a significant different between the various styles, so play around with it if you're not immediately happy with the sound quality. For example, I was surprised I liked the "standard" sound setting better than the "AI" one for music.
TV *DOES* have bluetooth capability for audio. Hooked up my bluetooth headphones with no problem - also in sound settings. TV allows you to use sound from both the tv and a wireless bluetooth speaker at the same time, so that's a great option to improve sound quality.
I *LOVE* the 1080p. It's worth the extra money, even in a small tv set IMO. The image quality is very very good! WebOS has all the basics, and screen mirroring is good from my iPhone.
Surprisingly, the TV picked up on all of my Kasa smart home devices/bulbs without me really asking, so that was a cool and unexpected bonus.
A few CONS: agree with another reviewer that the remote *IS* too busy. I regularly press the wrong buttons because it's so crowded and I'm used to using a remote without having to look down at it, especially the up down left right buttons. It's a bit annoying and the remote needs a redesign. Not a deal breaker though. Also, no voice control on the included remote, but I think I can do it from my phone. (I can use my iPhone as a virtual remote, which is nice).
I wish it had a center stand. Center stands are just better and especially for a smaller tv. The legs are too wide for the counter where I have it, so I had to improvise a stand. It has Vesa mount holes but I don't want to spend extra $ on a new stand.
WebOS is actually pretty good, but navigating the settings/ interface combined with a way-too-busy remote might not be so easy for people who aren't tech savvy. I am tech savvy, but could see how it could be a frustrating experience for some people.
Live tv images do take a moment to buffer and get to full image quality. This isn't really a con, just how it works.
I'll be adding a Roku Streambar, but I did debate whether or not I actually even needed to do that because the TV itself is such a great package with very good options.
Overall, I'm super happy with this TV and would recommend it!
Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed product experience feedback. ^Jennifer

This TV is worthless. Bad picture. Best Buy won't take it back after 18 days of trying it.

High quality for both sound and picture. Very easy to set up. All the streaming apps you could want readily available.

This 27 inch lg tv was easy to set up and has a sharp picture. This was our first lg set having purchased other brands for years. We will purchase this brand again in the future. You will not be disappointed with this tvs performance. This tv has crystal clear sound compared to other brands.

The LG Smart TV works well, is easy to set up, has a brilliant picture and passable built-in sound. Best Buy had it at the agreed upon time and the pick-up process was quick and efficient. The packaging was original and complete. None of the listed included contents was missing.

This TV gets a bump from 4 to 5 stars for being a viable 27" TV option, since most brands jump from 24" to 32". I needed a TV about this size to use primarily as a TV to watch while on my computer, and occasionally as a second monitor.
Picture: looks good from 2 feet away, and the preset picture setting options are quite varied. I'll mostly watch sports and movies on it, and the choices work well for me. It also holds up well when there is a lot of sunlight coming in the room.
Sound: as others have noted, is probably as basic as you'd expect from a small TV, but it suits my needs for where I use it. The AI sound choice actually does well for clarity for sports.
I have small complaints about the slow settings menu and the remote buttons are dense and mostly all the same size, so using it without looking at what you're pressing is harder than for some other remotes. But I'll give LG 5 stars for providing a 27" TV with a good picture.
Notes for wall mounting: because this is a small TV, be sure to get a mount with a small enough TV plate. One that is too big will block the inputs. Also note that the input ports point straight out the back, not to the side or down. So any stiff or large input cords will need space between the TV and the wall. That wasn't a problem for me because I specifically wanted an articulating arm mount and never really put mine right against the wall.

This is the first time I've purchased a TV without needing to use a cable. I have other smart TVs but have not used just wifi to operate. Pretty nifty. The picture and sound are great. Now I have to get used to the remote control. It's kind of small and a bit of a learning curve navigating through the channels.

This small 27" smart tv has a clear picture and exceptional color for the price and quality. If you need an unusual sized tv, this may do the job. Very satisfied!

LG has a good reputation for making reliable TVs and the picture quality of the IPS panel on this TV made for an easy buying decision. Setup was done using the TV controls without any problems. Have a Roku to stream Spectrum TV and various apps (Netflix, etc.), so had no use for the WebOS feature. Setting the Sleep Timer requires numerous steps and the small buttons on the remote makes it challenging. Using the Off Timer instead was a better option for me since it only has to be done once.

Great tv for the price and size. I needed a 27 inch tv, no larger, and i found this at Best Buy. Other places had the same tv for double the price. Picture is perfect. Set up was a breeze. The added LG channels are plenty.

I needed a smaller-sized (27") smart TV for use in the kitchen and the ability to stream was a must-have. I was surprised that it's getting so hard to find a under 32 inches; this was just about the only viable option.
PROS:
Though it doesn't come with a lot of preloaded apps, the LG app page has pretty much everything available so we were able to get everything we needed such as YouTube TV, Paramount +, Discovery + and so on.
Picture is good with high resolution and smooth frame rate.
This TV has optical digital out so we could easily connect to a small sound bar. One change in the setup options changes from internal speaker to digital optical out and it remembers the change so it doesn't have to be reset every time.
CONS:
The stand sets the viewing angle at 90 degrees; i.e. perpendicular to the countertop and is not adjustable so viewing is less than perfect if you aren't positioned directly in front of the screen.
SUPER BIG CON:
The TV that I received was refurbished/renewed, which is normally not a problem and a money saver, but THEY INCLUDED THE WRONG #^%$ING REMOTE. It would do the basic things like turn the TV on and off, volume +/- etc., but there was no way to access the apps without going through a set-up screen and literally reloading an app every time you wanted to use it.
My first thought was to just return it, because I knew that trying to get a big-box retailer like Best Buy to send me the right remote would simply be an exercise in futility because they probably have the refurb units sent from some 3rd-world sweat-shop and have no way to even locate the right remote, much less actually send one to me.
So, I checked eBay and sure enough I found one for about nine bucks. It was just so much easier to spend another $9 for the right remote than going through the hassle of returning this TV and finding another one somewhere. So, Best Buy loses all customer service points for gross incompetence in shipping a complete product.

This set is in a class of its own because there are hardly any sets out there that are larger than 24" but smaller than 32" and it fits the need perfectly. It was purchased for a kitchen to replace a 40-year string of letterbox CRTs of about 13-14 inches (the last of which finally died yesterday). It provides quite a bit more screen real estate than a 24" but isn't overpowering like a 32". It fit perfectly on a very old TV stand with about 0.25 inch to spare on each side. In-store display looked excellent compared to other sets of this approximate size. On left, top, and right sides of the screen, the bezel is extremely thin, allowing the picture to extend almost to the edge. The picture quality is excellent - what I would call "mature," unlike cheap small TVs with oversaturated, overcompensated color. Notably, the blues are deep, true, and natural. Skin tones are natural. Most other colors are natural. Brightness is appropriate and not overpowering. Sound is excellent. It works well with cable adapter box via HDMI and is a smart TV - software is LG's proprietary webOS, which is compatible with an array of streaming apps. Set up is a bit in-depth, so it may be a challenge for technology phobic or elderly people. Turning on/off is super-fast. I was pleased to find the power supply is internal despite the back power port which looks like there might be an external power brick. It comes with a full remote with numeric keypad and is very well laid out. Input changes are very intuitive. Overall, it's very well-made set that is worth the extra cost. It just "works."
