    Worst remote control I have ever used. You have to roll a thumb dial and most the the time it doesn't work well

      Hi, William. Thank you for reaching out about your LG TV (OLED42C5PUA) model. We understand the importance of having a remote that feels intuitive and responsive.

      One helpful step you can try is resetting the remote’s Bluetooth connection by holding the Home and Back buttons together for a few seconds, then pairing it again when prompted on the TV. This can improve responsiveness if the scroll or pointer feels inconsistent. You can also adjust or disable the pointer settings under Settings > General > AI Service > Pointer Options, which may give you a smoother experience depending on how you prefer to navigate. For more guidance, visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-tv-how-to-troubleshoot-your-lg-magic-remote--1427121727809OLT. We’d be glad to take a closer look into this with you. Please send us an email at [email protected] so we can continue assisting you. ^Juvy LG

      Hi, Sam. Thank you for sharing what happened with your LG TV (OLED42C5PUA) model. We understand the importance of having a TV that performs consistently. For symptoms like screen resets or power cycling, one helpful step is to run a power reset by unplugging the TV for 60 seconds and reconnecting it directly to a wall outlet, bypassing any surge protectors or power strips. This helps rule out power‑delivery interruptions that can cause repeated restarts. For more guidance, visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-tv-screen-cuts-out-and-freezes--20154859965707. We’d be glad to take a closer look from our end. Please send us an email at [email protected] with your model number and a brief description of the behavior so our team can assist you further. ^Juvy LG

    Best Buy Problems

    Well I can't beleive I spent that much money on a TV with no remote. The least Best Buy could have done is provided a universal remote. The TV arrived with unsecured hardware so who knows where all the screws went. Upon arrival I had to spend an additional $50 for a TV stand and remote. And to top it off, the TV came with the previous owners HULU & DISNEY PLUS account.

We understand how important it is for your new TV to arrive complete and ready to enjoy, and we appreciate you taking the time to let us know what happened.

You may contact Best Buy's Customer service 1 (888) 237-8289.

      And if you’d like to connect with us directly for further assistance, please email [email protected]. We’re here to help ensure your LG experience is a great one. -Avril LG

      Hi, Victor. Thank you for sharing your feedback about the LG TV (OLED42C5PUA) model. We appreciate you taking the time to let us know about your viewing and audio experience.

      For picture quality, you might want to check out the Picture Mode Settings by heading to: Settings > All Settings > Picture > Picture Mode Settings. Switching to Cinema or Filmmaker Mode can give you those more natural visuals, and if you’re into brighter colors, Vivid is the way to go. If you need more help, feel free to visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-tv-the-best-picture-settings-for-your-lg-tv--20150577528034.

      As for sound quality, take a look at the Sound Mode Settings under: Settings > All Settings > Sound > Sound Mode Settings. Choosing AI Sound Pro can really enhance clarity and balance, and Cinema mode is just perfect for movie nights. For more tips, check this out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2aF0XLguYBs. If you want us to dig deeper into this, just send us an email at [email protected], and we’ll be happy to help. ^Juvy LG
