LG NANO 85 Series - Great cheaper OLED altenative
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great TV for the money! HDMI 2.1 to future proof 8K @ 60hz, 4K @ 120hz. This is Dolby Atmos/Vision compatible. The Instant game mode is great for playing games on. I love the presets Expert dark room and HDR Enhance modes. I ended up returning it and getting the 65" 85 Series because I loved it so much. There is some backlight bleed in the corners that are noticable in dark rooms, but the color is amazing, contrast is pretty good, and the picture quality is top notch. Not on OLED levels, but still a great cheaper alternative!

Great value - vibrant colors and sound quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great value for a 120Hz TV. Vibrant colors, blacks not so good but you get what you pay for and I didn’t want to break the bank. Also, OLED was not an option for me as, for better or worse, I tend to leave the TV on in the background even if I’m doing something else. Important: TV came with the Energy Saving setting turned On. First thing you should do, turn it Off! Many other settings should be turned off or adjusted I easily googled recommendations for this particular model and that also made a big difference. Lastly, the sound vastly exceeded my expectations so much so that I haven’t purchased a soundbar yet and I’m not sure when I will.

Great for gaming and easy to use
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This tv is really nice and the hdmi 2.1 was perfect for my price range. I bought it mostly to play my ps5 and I’m happy with the 4K 120hz that this is capable of. It has all the apps you would need like netflix, Hulu, etc and works well with my Alexa. The picture quality is really nice and with all different setting can make what your viewing really pop. If you can afford it and are more sensitive to lighting and true blacks I would say look into the 90 series because the edge lighting is definitely noticeable on this tv. I automatically turned off the local dimming feature for everything because it is really bad on this tv. All in all this is a great led tv for the price range. It is really good for gaming, the picture quality is superb, and the interface is easy and smooth when trying to find something to watch.

LG really does it well
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have always been an LG fan, This TV compared to the equivalent of its competitors at price point makes sense. My only complaint would be the blacks and the local dimming on an edge lit display. you can see the zones and it can be a little annoying at first but can be turned off entirely. regardless, if you are within a 600$ budget and game, This tv will work perfectly on the new consoles and honestly PC as well. 120hertz 4k display is a little tough to come by at this price point and size. would recommend this model for sure!

Amazing price point despite 1 flaw
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price point, with the features this has, the tv was a steal ($500 for the 49in). I had a very strict set of parameters but the 49in was a big need. I purchased this to be able to play my PS5 with a 120 refresh rate and HDMI 2.1. The tv probably deserves 5 stars, honestly, with the only shortcoming being it's viewability for blacks. You notice this most in gaming loading screens where the screen appears blotchy. If you can get past this, it's worth the investment. If you can't you're likely going to pay at least double (if not triple) to get something where this is eliminated.

Excellent Display
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For its price it’s quality and features are many. Today’s tv are lacking in video inputs, choosing to have 2 or 3 hdmi, and that’s the end of it. This LG nano85 at least gives us 4 hdmi and a legacy A/V composite- though I’d have preferred component. It has some of the best upscaling I have seen in a display at this price. I’m using a transcoder to convert component analog to hdmi, the transcoder can only generate 720p but the Nano85 does a phenomenal job of scaling that up to its native 4K. I had seen reviews the panel doesn’t get particularly bright even with the HDR and Dolby Vision support it has, It looks bright and crisp to me, but the point of these and DolbyVision in particular, is the real-time color and brightness levels the produced film wants the display to have per scene, so remember that’s not necessarily the Displays fault. There are many many audio settings for this display Atmos at the top of everyone’s list in sure, and Bluetooth options. It also supports eArc and Optical to slink- and the later accurately lets devices know its capable of 5.1 passthrough, I’d have displays before that could not let communicate edid toslink info and all 5.1 passthrough. The Smart features are also quite good, very stable compared to my experiences on andriod, though it’s nowhere near the library- 90% of the mainstream video streaming services are there— cough- HBO get it together... Remember if gaming the two backside HDMI support VRR/Freesync 120hz (hdmi 3/4 respectively) and a very low latency game mode. Single most con, Bluetooth audio is not supported with Gamemode- latency issues I suspect. For its price and all the pros with this display I certainly would recommend it to gamers and movie watchers alike.

VERY NICE NOT A BAD TV.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.READ THIS. NOT A BAD TV. The TV does not get too bright or deal with the black levels to well, but other than that it's Very Nice TV. It does get bright I say just bright enough. I do think the black levels are not as dark as I want. The 120hz is worth it over other TV's in the price range. It gives a nice viewing experience and you notice the movies in 60FPS most of the time. The TV function it tuned very nice. The picture is very Clear and just nice. You do want to calibrate and adjust the PC settings to get it right. I feel every TV needs to be calibrated it just makes it better.

Amazing Television
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is by far our best investment! We’re so glad we went for it with this tv. The visual quality is unmatched and it’s so easy to stream any streaming services (Hulu, Netflix, HBO Go, etc). Quality is great all day for us, whether during the day or in the evening! The 120hz combined with the 4K resolution makes the viewing experience amazing no matter what you are watching! The inclusion of LGs App Store means you can stream just about anything you want and the LG TV app or idea even more content than I knew existed! This TV is so lightning fast that our family is able to stream beautiful 4K videos without having to wait forever for the videos to load, as we had to do with our previous TV!

Next Gen
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great TV especially for the price. I got this for the Xbox Series X and it fits every criteria. 120Hz at 4k, HDR10, Dolby vision, Low-latency-lag, and gaming mode. And I feel 49 is perfect for single player and multipler. Just make sure you update the TV or HDR will make the entire screen green.

Great TV for a great price
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'd like to start off saying this tv is absolutely beautiful. I've purchased around 5 or 6 tv's so far in my adult life and I would easily say this one is my favorite. This tv replaced an older Vizio 4k tv and the difference is night and day. Even the woman noticed the difference and wonderful quality. I wanted a tv that could hold up to the PS5 release and it appears to have the specs for it. Paired currently with my PS4 Pro it is a thing of beauty, it picks up colors my other tvs couldn't dare. Things feel rich and give you that real feel, I can't wait to see how a new age console pairs with this. I would say this is a 9.5/10, with the price for quality at its strongest point. I'm sure you could spend hundreds more and get the perfect boost of whatever you are searching for but for my needs of a reasonable priced tv for gaming and movie watching this was spot on. The lone weakness I found was the "Local dimming" feature, which happens to be terrible. It would darken my tv at times to where it was hard to even see, which made gaming inefficient. But! A simple solution to that is digging into the settings and turning it off. Fixes all the problems. Ps, make sure to run the "game mode" picture setting when gaming. Very crisp.

Xbox series X experience and settings
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m coming from a 1440p 27in monitor that I was using with my series x, but I wanted to take full advantage of hdmi 2.1 and this TV is the smallest option atm besides the CX 48, but I’ve sworn off oled since getting burn in on my B7 last year. This nano85 has a great color range for a tv but I can notice less coverage than the monitor I came from, I would say about 6-7 percent. As far as the brightness and picture quality it’s about on par with my 1440p 27in as this has about 10 less ppi Okay on to the settings for the Xbox series x First off make sure you plug it into hdmi 3 or 4 And go into the input home dashboard and label your input pc this will give chroma 4.4.4 Next turn on ultra deep color, instant game response, and amd freesync to wide in additional settings Make sure energy saving, eye comfort mode, and filmmaker mode auto all are off Next change picture mode to cinema Backlight 100 Contrast 100 Brightness 60 Sharpness 10 Color 100 Tint 0 Advance controls Gamma 1.9 White balance Color temp medium Method 2 Point high Red 50 Green 50 Blue 50 Picture options Black level low Motion eye care off Enjoy :)

Does everything I wanted and expected it to do
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a 55" Samsung UN6950 for about 3 years that I thought was an excellent TV for the price (got it from a bargain outlet store for $299); 4K SmartTV with all the bells and whistles. But then I got a PS5 and that all changed. I wanted a TV that was 120Hz and had Variable Refresh Rate with HDMI 2.1 so that my games would run the best they could... and that's when I ran into this. I watched a few reviews on YouTube and they all said it had what I wanted. I didn't really want to "downgrade" from 55" to 49" but it was the only one within a comfortable price range that was what I was looking for. Most of the reviews I watched said there was a small issue with colors looking washed out and haloing because of the type of lighting this TV uses, but I wanted it more for the performance than any of that. I don't see an issue with the colors, after tinkering with it for a while. The brightness is so good sometimes that it kinda hurts my eyes. But after using it for a longer period I start to get used to it. The sound is good enough, slightly better than the Samsung I had before, and it lets me Bluetooth a speaker to it, which my previous TV didn't, so I can get a boost to make it sound even better. Game mode works just as I wanted it to; games are super smooth, beautifully rendered and function as I believe they are intended. WebOS is one of my favorite SmartTV interfaces, since I've loved it ever since having a Palm Pre back in the day. It's simple and easy to use, and looks really nice. It doesn't have any lag or stutter like other TV's do. I am very happy with this purchase and would do it again if I needed another one.

Excellent TV for Xbox Series X
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this TV to use in my man cave with the Xbox series X and I can say this is an awesome TV to play on. I was using an older high end Sharp Quattron that I thought was good enough and I was wrong. Finding a 120hz with HDMI 2.1 on a TV less than 50" is hard to find unless you want to drop $1500 so at $500 for this TV is a bargain. This TV sold out fast so grab one it if gets back in stock. I now have 3 LG TV's in the house and I like them all.

LG 49Nano85 Overall Impression
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Basic: Good TV if you're looking to buy a new one for the PS5 or Xbox Series X on a budget. For regular use or movie fanatics, it may not be the best choice due to the various cons that you can easily find online if you do a bit of research (LG had to cheap out on some aspects for a TV at this price point which is a shame because this TV would've been perfect overall). Although some of the cons stiIl bother me a bit as I really do notice them occasionally, it isn't a deal breaker because I bought this TV with the intention of gaming and it was also on sale for Black Friday. I also knew about the cons this TV had before making the purchase. If your only purpose is for watching movies or TV shows, I would suggest to look at different options. Gaming: This TV hit the sweet spot for gaming because it has HDMI 2.1 for future proofing the PS5/XBOX and gaming at 120hz refresh rate which most TV at this price point can't do at the time of this review (there will most likely be more options in the near future). If you already have a decent 4K TV and is thinking about upgrading for the PS5 or XBOX, my suggestion would be to wait for more options to come or save up for a more expensive TV like the Sony X900H. Overall: Does what it is intended to do and is mainly for gaming and casually watching movies. The TV is good but it didn't awestruck me or anything like that and this is coming from someone who is upgrading from a 2012 1080p TV who never owned a 4K TV before. It is the best TV for gaming when compared to its competitors at this price point at the moment. If you can get it on sale and you can't wait for another TV for the PS5 or XBOX, this TV is definetly worth it.

Not disappointed with this Nano TV purchase
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The LG Nano Cell Series are great TVs. I purchased the Nano Cell 85 Series 49in model, it is a great bedroom TV for me. I personally have an 4K Apple TV box and a 4K Roku box. I like how the 4K Apple TV brings out the colors and displays on this Nano Cell TV. The Apple TV is a better choice for my personal preference on this TV. Also when and a TV program or movie is Dolby Vision capable the Nano TV automatically displays it in Dolby Vision and it looks fantastic. I am very pleased with the picture quality and colors. There is also lots features on this TV to adjust the TV to your personal preference.I also like the fact it has 4 HDMI ports and 3 USB ports and lots of other hook up ports. The TV is Gamer friendly and compatible ready with the latest consoles such as PS5 and Xbox Series X. My PS4 system looks amazing on this TV all my games look like they have been remastered. I also like how loud the TV speakers are you don't really need a sound bar.. But I purchased a sound bar because I wanted some Boom when I watch action movies and play games. I hope this TV lasts me for a minimum of 5yrs or more then I will probably upgrade to the latest TV model. Technology is a beast because it is constantly changing. I like to keep up with the latest technology but only if I can afford it.

Nano Call 85
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have had this TV for about a month, so obviously have not had it long enough to say whether it last long. The picture is great, the sound is nice and the magic remote is great. Would like to have a tv button on the remote so we could go from videos to tv with one click. When using the firestick we lose internet connection at least once during a hour show. We end up having to turn the tv off, re-enter the internet password and resume the show. Don't know if that is the TV or firestick. The remote doesn't recognize some of our older equipment so we still have to use the old remotes to control those. We did buy the 5 year warranty because every Smart TV we have owned has needed a mother board replacement within 3 years and again before 5 years. Hoping that is not the case with this one, but TVs aren't built like they were years ago - everything is disposable these days.

Great TV for all
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Tis TV is amazing, nice quality...almost perfect picture with great HDR and fast instant game response. Also yes it runs at 4k 120hz for the gamers, that's the whole reason I bought it. Only bad thing I could say ab this TV is that the black colors aren't very black...kinda dark grayish but all in all....it's a great TV for gamers and TV watchers.
