LG NanoCell 65" 4K UHD HDR LED webOS Smart TV (65NANO85APA) - 2021

Purchased a few weeks ago in December very happy with it

DO NOT BUY THIS TV. THESE TVS SUFFER FROM BACKLIGHT BLEEDING THAT CASUSES LIGHT TO SEEK THROUGH THE CORNERS. I SWITCHED THIS TV OUT TWICE AND BOTH HAD THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS DUE TO THE EDGE LIT PANELS. I BOUGHT THIS TO GO WITH MY XBOX SERIES X BUT THE BACKLIGHT BLEEDING IS SUPER ANNOYING WHEN IT'S NOTICEABLE IN DARK SCENES. SEE ATTACHED PHOTOS. LG SUPPORT IS NO HELP SO DON'T BOTHER. THEY'LL TELL YOU THAT THEY'LL SEND A REPAIR TECH BUT NOTHING WILL FIX THIS ISSUE. SO DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY. I SUCKED UP THE EXTRA $200 AND GOT THE SONY X900H 55" AND WHAT AN AMAZING DIFFERENCE.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I read about this TV and it's amazing features, I decided to upgrade my old 55 inch Plasma TV, and I'm glad that I did. The unboxing was really easy and the setup was straight forward. When I turned it on, I was amazed with the visual and sound quality, huge difference from my old TV. I watched some 4K videos and OMG! I also liked the LG Webos features and the smart contents that's offering wide variety of apps such as the LG live free channels app. You can watch more than 200 channels for free! In addition, I like to mention about the magic remote, you can easily configure it to control your bluray player, sound bar.. from any brand!

So this is honest review and I have no bias towards any brand. I’ve owned nothing but Samsung TV’s for for last 13 years. And I’ve been nothing but happy. This is my first LG TV and my first LG product in almost 5 years (cell phone). Personally I’m not a fan of LG but reading reviews I felt strong about there TV’s. First off I bought this TV because I just recently bought a PS5 and wanted to take advantage of the HDMI 2.1 and 4k. I’ll start by saying the picture using the PS5 is phenomenal. I have little to no complaints at all. The instant game mode runs amazing. The HDR paired with the PS5 is excellent and beautiful. The response time is also spot on. Now onto the 120hz feature. Very few games support 120hz 4k. And if they do support 120hz it’s locked to 1080p. So I’m unsure if the 2.1 is really worth it as of 3/27/2021 mostly because it’s seems niche in terms of you lose half your pixels to run at 120hz (120 FPS). (Catch 22 really). But as for normal 4k gaming, I don’t know that the picture could really be any better. It’s honestly that good! My one complaint about gaming is that I feel like the back light could be a bit brighter being as HDR seems to darken some images. Now onto your non gaming needs. One of the best selling points to this TV (and any LG) is the WebOS and the magic remote. The webOS is lighting fast and the magic remote works flawlessly. It’s adds a mouse like cursor to navigate the apps (Netflix, Disney+, Hulu ext.) that’s makes selecting your program a breeze. The 4k picture you get from using the built in Apps like Netflix I feel is unmatched and even better then using the PS5 or 4k Chromecast. One disadvantage of the WebOS is that HBO Max is not yet supported. Which stinks, but fortunately it has a screen share (Air Play) option which easily let me use my IPhone 11 Pro Max to stream my own videos, pictures or apps (HBO Max) at great high quality. My one and only real complaint is the same as others and that’s the light bleed. On movies with black bars because of aspect ratios, you definitely notice the light bleed through the blacks. Which is annoying as heck, but not a complete deal breaker. Some suggest changing settings to calm this, but unless it’s plugged in via HDMI, there’s no real option to change things like local dimming. With all that being said I feel like this LG85 is a excellent buy vs the price you’d pay for a true OLED TV. For 4k gaming it’s easily 5/5 stars for me. Onboard technology 5/5 Stars. Ease of use it’s 5/5 stars. Price 4/5 stars. Watching movies is the only downfall due to the bleed through its 3/5 stars. Making my overall opinion a 4/5 stars. Pictures show gaming, bleed through, magic remote, magic remote cursor.

I am completely blown away by the picture of this television. The pictures is so realistic that you feel like you are it the show. I have used the tv to watch movies, tv shows, and video gaming. The ease of the access to Netflix, Hulu etc are simple and quick with the push of one button. The sound is also great on the tv. I have not even turned on my surround sound since I bought it. It is crisp clean and very clear! I highly highly recommend this tv!!
