    Really nice TV...This is the second LG TV we've purchased from Best Buy and we really love it!...Great color and picture quality...I like the WebOS that LG has, easy to use and also add additional downloaded programs...Better user interface than Samsung's OS......

    Decent TV For the Price

    Decent TV for the size and price. PROS** It's and 4K 86" TV for less than $2K! Has a sleek design and looks good. It is HDR and Dolby Vision ready. CONS** Not the best backlight distribution, just ok for uniformity. There are noticeable lighter bands that run vertically up the screen in darker shots and considerable light bloom in the corners. This isn't a deal breaker considering the price range though. All of these issues can be mitigated by adjusting the settings to your own tastes but they never completely go away. (you will really only notice the corner bloom when you are watching a letterboxed program, on full screen programs it is barely noticeable.) I have found that the best picture quality I can get is when connected to a recent model ROKU set to Dolby Vision output and setting the backlighting to 50% From my experience the built in apps (Netflix, VUDU, etc.) don't provide the best picture quality. I recommend a dedicated device such as a ROKU or other streaming box and a quality HDMI cable. Get a sound bar, the built in speakers are acceptable but not the best.

    We just moved to a 2,600 square foot home with a large living room and decided to purchase a large TV. This 86 inch LG TV is perfect for the space above the fireplace. It wasn't too difficult to mount (two people required). Picture and sound quality is excellent.

    For this to be so big, it’s a great TV from every angle. The picture is very clear in the sound is decent too, though we added a sound bar for a real entertainment/movie feel. I’ve had my eye on this for a while and we are thoroughly enjoying it.

    Was looking to upgrade from a 70 inch I bought when they first came out back in 2012. Had to tell the wife that you can never go down in size . 86 inches it is !!! Freak huge and a awesome picture. The apps and OS are definitely an upgrade from my last TV.

    Great t.v. for the money and even better when Best Buy price matches...it is truly a win/win!! This t.v. was a little more difficult to hang because of its outrageous size but we managed to get it into a tight corner in our restaurant!

    I just purchased this tv to replace my 65" LG 4K TV. This thing is huge. The picture out of the box with factory settings isn't very good, but after adjusting the settings in the ADVANCED section of PICTURE settings, the picture is awesome. Worth every penny.

    My wife and I love the size it really fills up the wall and with Aexa built in is a plus. The volume the tv comes with is loud as well so you don't really need a sound bar if you don't want to spend extra. Over all a great tv with a lot built in.

    The picture quality is amazing. The screen is big enough for us. Our kids game on it and we watch sports or movies. It sits in our game room, so it is not our primary TV. It was a great price and we are happy with it.

    This was just an amazing purchase. Great Picture quality and definitely a great price tag. I don't usually watch much tv but have been constantly in front of it since I have purchased it. LG has really showed its chops on this for me.

    I have a smaller, older LG TV and the picture is great. I purchased this one because I was impressed with the original TV. This one is a 4K UHD and the picture is amazing! The large screen is great for watching Sports and Movies!

    It’s not the ultra top of the line TV, but it really does the trick. You can’t go wrong with 86”. Once you play around with the settings a bit, it’s perfect. I got before Black Friday for $1459. That’s a price that can’t be beat!

    Good tv for the price, I ended up paying 1600 plus taxes, which is fair for this size and quality, the resolution is superb, I've seen better but for 4 or 5 grand. I enjoy all my movies on this monster screen,

    This TV is huge! I wish it was a little thinner but for the price you can’t beat it. Display oils good but make sure you get a sound bar because it makes everything else on your living room look really small.

    Can't say it yet because our tv is still in the box. We bought it for our new house. However, we got this TV because o all the other reviews, and after talking to several people about it! Can't wait to use it!

    Its a great TV. Picture is very clear. No need to pay hundreds more for a newer TV. I placed this TV in my Home Theater area in my basement. I had Geek Squad install it along with my sound system. They were great! Only issue I had is that it wont allow me download some Apps like AT&T which I use for my regular TV shows.

    Movies always look better on a big screen and this one is one of the biggest today. Picture quality is great, enough ports to connect anything you need, OS works without problems. Great TV overall.
