    Excellent LG TV!!

    This is now the third LG TV we've purchased (32" in Master Bedroom, 50" in Front Room, and this 55" in our Family Room), and the nineth LG product we own, and we are NEVER disappointed with the products they produce. The picture on this TV is EXCEPTIONAL; I mean, it really is truly impressive. And when you pair it up with the LG sound bar and LG 3-D/Blu-Ray player and watch something like Guardians of the Galaxy or Avatar, the color and clarity will just blow your mind! The ONLY "detractor" I can come up with is I guess I expected more from the Magic Remote. Unless I just haven't used it enough to learn everything, the ONLY difference I see over the remotes for our other LG TV's is the mouse and/or tracker. And, to be honest, I find it a little aggravating. Aside from that, our other LG remotes are just as easy (if not easier) to use, but maybe that's only because we're already "trained" on them. That aside, this is an awesome TV with an incredible picture with an endless amount of apps and features. And compared to a 60" or larger screen, the price is more than reasonable for what's offered. Get one; you will NOT be disappointed!!

    I can't get over how clear this picture is for this tv. Its almost like I'm watching through a window at my house.. Very easy to use as well. the remote can be a little tricky at times, but once you get it down it isn't that bad to use.

    TV does not ship well. purchased two of these from an other online vendor and both shipped DOA. Bought third from Best buy for in store pick-up and no issues. Bought service plan also, just in case. TV features are great, love the remote and OS interface. Love the "no bezel" appearances, very sleek. Lacks component connectivity for devices requiring RCA connectivity and only 4 HDMIs but over all meets my needs. Bought around black Friday so ~$1300 wasn't bad price but did see cheaper elsewhere (online retailer in Maine)...as low as $1099 with free shipping but didn't want to chance another DOA with shipping; these are fragile apparently. Also learned to use smartTV apps like Netflix and Amazon Prime video through TV versus other devices like Playstation etc. so you can access 4K and 3D content. When logging into Netflix account on TV for example, Netflix will then identify that your TV can handle 4K and 3D video and will list as options in your account otherwise the 4K and 3D content will not be listed on Netflix etc. I liked the wall-mounted sound (virtual surround) quality considering they are just stock TV speakers. Over all, good TV and if purchased at the right price, is an exceptional value. Do I believe there are superior products out there...? Yes. However, this is a great, feature rich TV for the money so if you're in the market for an inexpensive, 4K, 120hz refresh, etc. TV, this one should be top of your list.

    We love our new LG 4K 55" tv. The picture quality is absolutely outstanding and the audio through our soundbar makes the tv even more enjoyable. We enjoy streaming from Netflix and the picture quality is also outstanding. It is fun listening to music from YouTube via this tv. It is very easy to change from watching DirecTv to streaming to connecting to our DVD/VHS player, much easier than with our other tv which was five years old. It takes a little time to get used to the remote control as it is very sensitive to movement. We love LG products and are very happy with this new tv and all the viewing/listening options it gives us.

    Awesome 2D & 3D display! I believe I paid around the same price for this TV and the Samsung 50". Pros: Great Picture Quality, I found a site where I download instructions on how to tweak the TV. Typical TV applications: Netflix, FB, Skype, Hulu, etc.. Some free 3D Content from the LG Store. Con: UI could use a little work.

    I had this item discounted to me because of an error the staff made giving me a non 3DTV model the day before, and I have to say, this TV set is an AWESOME experience. I have every video game system you can imagine, from the old 8-bit Nintendo, to the Wii U, PS4 and XBox One hooked up to this thing. I also stream Netflix, Hulu and Playstation Vue's streaming service on this, and it's a wonder I ever leave my house. If you buy this set, make sure you go online, or learn how to calibrate this TV so it gets proper color and shadowing. Once you do that, you will be blown away at the quality of the 3-D performance, and the 1080P and Blu-Ray upscaling on this. Honestly, for the price and quality, I've become convinced no one can beat LG's products. I've owned several of them now. But it gets even better. You can actually speak into your remote to post on Facebook, or to search the web. It comes with several pre-installed apps, such as Netflix, Hulu, YouTube and more for quick access. Believe me, this is a quality, quality TV set. They are even now streaming some things in 4K on Netflix, and the picture quality is mind-blowing.

    The picture is AMAZING! 420p all the way to 2160p. We love the smart apps and the USB player, it plays right off my external hard drive or flash drive and passive 3D too! WOW! The colors on this TV really are quite amazing everything is crisp and bright and no motion blur during fast action scenes. This TV is by far the best I ever owned. Watch out Samsung LG really has something here. I can't wait for more 4K content to come out and when it does we will be ready! You can't go wrong with this TV period.

    Got a great deal on this at $1299. Depth of colors and picture quality/clarity are outstanding. 3D is pretty realistic too. One improvement would be a better more sturdy stand. The fastening screws are small and short and have a tendency to strip easily. Not an issue if wall mounting but a definite drawback if you need the stand.

    This TV is great for the price. The picture quality is incredible. It's a little work to calibrate it to where it needs to be out of the box, but just be patient. Also note that 4K output is only available on HDMI3. We have an LG 3D bluray player for our other TV (tried it on this and weren't impressed) so I definitely suggest upgrading to a 4K upscaler (we bought the Sony model) to make full use of the quality. Overall, awesome TV, especially if you put a little work into it and accessorize to maximize the potential.

    Great 3D TV

    This is the second 3D tv from LG I bought, but my first 4k tv. I haven't got a chance to test out the 4k feature because I don't have any 4k media. My family and I love the passive 3D on this TV. The remote for this tv takes a little getting used to but if you have ever played Nintendo Wii you will be fine. Accessing the built in apps is simple enough with a press of a button although changing from one input to another is a little tricky at first. Took me a while to figure that out. The design of the tv is great, almost borderless so it is pretty much all screen. The base looks nice but takes up space. I will be mounting the tv to wall soon so that issue will be resolved shortly. Overall the picture quality is good though I think it can be better if I play around with the settings. I placed it on energy saving mode most of the time, so it isn't really used to its true potential. Only have had the tv for a month and half so I haven't had too much time to explore any of the other features.

    I have had this TV for a little over a month and absolutely love it. This is my second LG and I wouldn't have anything else. Watching he Super Bowl in 3D was fun and it really brings NASCAR to life. If you are on the fence about buying this unit I say go for it! I highly recommend the LG - 55" Class (54-5/8" Diag.) - LED - 2160p - Smart - 3D - 4K Ultra HD TV

    The LG UB8500 series is great. Excellent picture, great sound, nice features. I like the ability to browse other apps while still watching programming. There's a decent amount of inputs. I'm disappointed however in the fact that, while the TV is capable, LG is not going to update it with WebOS 2.0. Not updating the TV is an insult to customers who spent, what to many, is a large amount of money. It is certainly something to consider between LG and Samsung, which has the evolution kits.

    I am a non techie and had connected to cable and viewing in about 45 minutes, Another 30 minutes and I had my surround connected and 3D DVD blue ray connected. I read the reviews before purchasing that enabled me to circumvent some of the others frustration. Everyone that has come over to visit has been amazed at the quality of the picture color. Many features to customize viewing experience. Another great LG product.

    Very happy with this LG 4k 3d tv,was easy to set up once I clicked on the little gear symbol at the top right of the screen with the magic remote.Picture is great!! We bought it 4 months ago and it has worked fine,I went into store with Samsung on my list,but after comparing I thought the LG looked just as good and had extra features like 3d,web,voice command etc for the money.Take notice of stand as it has long metal bar on front which requires very wide stand to sit it on,if not hanging on wall!

    I don't use the word great very often but it applies here. I did a lot of homework and chose the LG over the Sony and Samsung. After one month, I can say that I feel great about it. My GoPro 4K footage, all the smart functions and the 3D options are AWESOME. This is everything I was hoping for. Buy one and enjoy it.

    First thing you are going to want to do is upgrade the firmware for the tv. This lets you install the Netflix app without any hiccups. After the update has completed it should be ready to stream 4k from Netflix. The settings I have found to be best (for the picture) backlight:100 contrast:85 brightness:55 color:55 tint:0 dynamic contrast:off.. everything else is user preference. I like to have the noise reduction settings off (both of them) and it looks great. The picture quality is outstanding for the price. Sometimes the contrast isn't as good as I feel it should be, but this is usually in low light scenes. I feel this is the best 4k tv you can get for the price ($1500). The smart remote is great, just takes a few hrs getting used to. My Xbox one looks amazing on the tv. The 3D on the tv looks superb, Netflix has some 3d as well as vudu and the lg store app. Honestly the best tv I've bought.

    I love my new LG 4k ultra TV. The picture is so clear & it syncs up to my LG sound bar so easily. Also I can easily cast from my Samsung note 3 straight to TV without the need for other apps. The 3D is great I didn't know it could look so real like the theater 3D. Amazing we love our LG TV.
