Slower every day. Inoperable now.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was great in the beginning but now t is so slow you can barely use it. You end up just turning it off. I wish there was a way to update the software or something.

It's a slug

Entry level TV. Backlight is uneven. It shows in dim scenes. TV cpu is a slug. NOTHING snappy about its performance. If I could get a refund, I would. I'm tired of waiting for the TV to catch up to me!

can't stream video from NAS

I am dumbfounded that I am unable to stream video from my NAS to my TV. My "dumb" Vizio TV could do this. I am returning the TV. I can't believe that this simple feature that has been around for years is not present. I guess I'm going to buy a Samsung, Vizio, or TCL TV

not configurable.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] picture and sound are just ok, I haven't found a way to make the picture brighter or the sound (voice) louder, everything is controlled by AI supposedly but it doesn't seem to work properly. and when I turn the TV off then back on, I wish it would go to the home screen instead of going to Sling all the time.

First and foremost, I want to acknowledge that we're falling short of your expectations, and for that, I apologize. I understand that having control over the picture and sound settings is crucial for an enjoyable viewing experience.

Point and click feature works like a mouse.

Bought this a few days ago to take acrylic painting tutorials on YouTube. Needed a sharp picture for close up pictures. Pictures are perfect and having a built in mouse on the remote makes it fast to move around the apps. No more sequential clicking to reach subject matter. Using this as a monitor and a TV is fantastic either way you look at it. Very happy so far.

Slow TV

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this TV two months ago and I regret it ever since. It's too much trouble to return! I have the fastest Internet services and still the TV works like a snail!! I just remember I bought a similar slow LG TV five years ago but now with the new tv I am surprised that the same technology never changes! The mouse on the remote is worse than a snail! The only good thing about LG is the vivid color and picture that other brands can not compete!

Great features!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A good made TV, SO LARGE SCREEN, WHY THE SIDE BY SIDE MODE TO DIVIDE THE SCREEN IN TWO IS SO STRCTLY? WHY CANT I CHOOSE. I.E. ONE SCREEN FOR THE PLAYSTATION AND THE OTHER FOR LOCAL TV. WHY???? DO I NEED AN UPDATE OR DOWLOADING SOME APP?

We Like

We bought this because are 50" UHD tv didn't have near as good a picture as this 55" LG did at Sams. We got home and set it up. Picture is Great when I turn it on the first. Then as I get it connected to Xfinity, I notice picture is not as good, it seems the broadcast picture is not as sharp. Prime TV very much better. I think I will have the cable guy come out and see if we are getting the best signal. It is not the TV.

Alexa smart capabilities disappointing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very disappointed with Alexa smart capabilities. The only thing I can do with my Alexa echo is work the volume on my LG UR8000 50 inch TV. When I ask for any other applications such as turn TV on/off I get the response “LG TV does not support that”. I had my options down for choosing two brands of Smart TV, I think I've made the wrong choice. More than anything first thing in the morning I just wanted to say “ Alexa turn my TV on” and then last thing at night “Alexa turn my TV off”. I don't think that was asking much. I have spent two days playing with getting Alexa to work for this TV registering re-registering unregistering, thin Q app, at one point Alexa app gave me an on/off capabilities within the app, once TV was turned off within the app it would not turn back on from within the app. And this only happened once when resetting and re-registering it. Also for some reason when it discovers the TV it shows two TVs within the app one said “TV” the others said “LG webOS 2023 TV”. Tried managing devices within the app to use with LG TV made no difference. guess I can look on the bright side, don't have to pick up the remote to change volume, at least for now. most of the time TV shows as off-line or unavailable within the app. Not to mention I do not want to be going in the app that is the whole reason for voice recognition to the echo device.

It's a TV and that's what it does.

Otherwise, possible issues you may experience are: 1. If auto-update is turned on, you are likely to experience delay from standby to actually able to view a channel due to an update. 2. Even without an update, it takes this model up to 15 seconds to fully power up for viewing a channel.
