Great Tv so far after 2months of owning it. It was worth to pay just a little extra than your basic 4k tv and it still was a reasonable price.

We almost bought an LG TV that's the next level down, but the sales person convinced us to get this model instead. We couldn't be happier, this is a great TV with a sharp picture.

This television is awesome! I’m a sports fan so I love how nice the games look. You will need to add a sound bar because volume on bigger TVs are not that great

240 hz refresh rate can't be beat and the setup was extremely simple. The remote has both Netflix and Amazon quick buttons, which is a bonus for us.

I have owned many TVs over the years from CRT, DLP, Plasma and LCD/LED and this TV is by far the nicest I have had yet. Both the picture and sound quality iare nothing short iof amazing and beyond my expectations given the few negative reviews I have read.
The magic remote and WebOs are fantastic and absolutely blow away the horrible Android system in the TV this one replaced. My previous Sony had a nice 4K picture overall but lacked HDR capability and the slow and just terrible Android interface in it made it where I hated to even use it. This TV on the other hand, actually has brought back my old desire to watch TV again. In the last 2 years that I owned the Sony before it, i had pretty much lost all interest in using the unit because of the terrible interface it had. What a shame that Sony is still using it in their current models being sold.
So I was immediately impressed when I unboxed tge LG and saw the beautiful floating frame design. Everything went perfectly in mounting it on the wall and settting it up, which was extremely quick compared to other brands I have had. Especially the voice prompt assit during the setup which made me laugh and the lightening fadt OTA channel scan. It was so fast I thought there is no way it could have done it already but it did and actually pulled in about 10 more channels on the same antenna than my Sony did. The tuner is rock solid and every channel works perfectly with zero signal loss compared to my previous TV.
The upscaling on 480i is nothing short if amazing and makes old shows appear like they are 720 or better. iit is so good I actually have to keep bringing up the channel info to see if it is really being broadcast in 480. Simply amazing.
The sound it has is just the best built in sound quality I have ever heard in any previus TVs and the unit is in a large room and has no problems with crystal clear full range sound. I don't even need a soundbar with this beauty. I have it hooked to a Denon receiver for when I want to play movies in theater quality, but normal use and TV content does not need the reciver at all.
Inlove the IPS panel and have always been a fan of the technology for wide viewing and colors and I never understood those who complain of its limitation on contrast ratio vs VA panels. The blacks produced by this model are more than adequate for both myself and my wife eyes and the picture actually to us, looks better than our old Plasma abd for an LCD TV that is amazing. We also do not watch in a dark room so in our envioment it is great.
Can,t say enough good things about this TV and for the first time since the 1980's, I bought a new TV that has surpassed my expectations and Thats a great feeling.
The only gripe I have so far with this TV is that the owners manual is terrible and badically tells no details into the settings of this wonderful TV. So I have had to spend many hours thus far exploring the menus and settings but so far thisis my only complaint.
Absolutely wonderful TV and if you can get it on sale its unbeatable IMO.
