  Owner for about 1.5 years with daily use as a second screen (above the main one) on PC. Used as a second screen for series-movies-Youtube-Netflix-Disney+ etc. when lying down. The screen has a great image, I have no idea why there are negative comments and I have it in front of me.

  Screen: From angles it is very good. Edge LED TVs are bad from an angle, this one is backlit and that was one of the 3 reasons I bought it. I have compared it to an edge LED Hitachi, also full HD with HDR that I bought for another room at 200 (I bought this one for 250). LG is years ahead because of the backlit. The edge LED is not good if you don't look at it directly, which again I say does not apply here!

  Gaming-PC: Excellent BUT you have to set the Picture Mode to "Game". At first, I was frustrated because it had a high latency even on the mouse I was moving, but as soon as I set it to Game, it improved.

  Movies-media etc: It's fine, maybe I would have wanted it bigger and 4K but that's my own issue. Also, don't expect good HDR at these prices and sizes, it's just for marketing. For economical HDR on TV, see Samsung QLED (only) with VA panel and then NEO QLED or OLED. Apart from HDR, the best images are there. 32-inch ones with top image quality are no longer as good no matter how much you spend because VA-QLED starts from larger inches.

  Sound: Generally, I don't think a 32" TV has good sound, it's terrible. On my PC, I have a 5.1 so I play from there. Sometimes when I watch Netflix from the TV, it's okay, but only up to that point. I expected more because it's thicker, but it didn't impress me. I don't see any major difference compared to Hitachi. Look for other reviews with more comparisons.

  CPU-Software: Excellent CPU. This is the second reason I bought it. I have an older Sony in the living room that I paid a lot for 5 years ago and it doesn't even open Ertflix, it kicks me out of Netflix because the RAM never clears, the menus are very slow and the new ones were... So it's an important factor for me in every TV since then, I learned my lesson. It has perfect response in everything and doesn't lag anywhere. It also had an update the other day, LG still releases updates. I was looking for Android but I would compromise on quality and settled for webOS. It's very good, I expected it to be much worse to be honest. I have tested Netflix, Disney+, Youtube, Twitch, screen-share, chrome-cast, Bluetooth headphones, series from the browser. Everything runs smoothly and without any problems. I don't know about more advanced features, I'm saying this for those who are looking for IPTV. I have seen the apps but I don't know how they work. The CPU can handle it, but I don't know the limits of WebOS. I would definitely prefer it to have Android so I can install my own APKs, but for basic use like "let's watch Netflix" it will satisfy everyone.
  Two small comparisons here as well. 1. Hitachi has an open-source OS that is terrible. Even in the update, it lost contact with the speakers. Okay CPU but bad OS, it doesn't even have Disney+. Point for LG. 2. Xiaomi TV stick full HD edition. I bought it for the Sony in the living room that had issues, it also has Android. Many freezes and restarts on its own. I won't blame Android, but the TV stick, whatever the case may be, my experience with LG is much better. Running something smoothly is unfortunately a qualification and not a given in our time.

  Warranty: You won't find a better one in Greece than LG (the third reason I bought it). It has 0 pixels for the 1080p. I had an issue with another monitor, they replaced it 3 or 4 times. The quality control has dropped a lot in monitors, I didn't have such an issue with the TV. I sent it back because I vape a lot in a closed space with the TV right above me and it had caught a drop inside the glass. They cleaned it and sent it back, now I pay a little more attention. It has a strong warranty although a bit bureaucratic.

  Quality: Quality TVs in terms of materials no longer exist, for about a decade now. There are average and poor qualities. If you want quality, give 50-100€ to get a used CRT Sony Trinitron, those were beasts. Or even better, those black and white wooden ones. Unfortunately, this is how the market has gone today and everyone writes reviews about the thin Samsung ones that break easily... Let's not even talk about the backlight bleed issue that has no guarantees, I have already written a lot about it. Due to its thickness and bezel, this one is somewhat sturdy. It doesn't have many vulnerable points like the thinner ones, you can lift it without fearing the panel will detach or break. Yes, it's made of plastic (like all), but good quality plastic, thicker than others. It doesn't bend so easily or creak when you lift it. The quality is top for the category, generally average, definitely not bad though.

  Other: The thickness is something I would mention as a negative. Generally, this is an issue in LG's economic models because they make them backlit. It's a double-edged sword, I preferred the backlit when I bought it. The bezels could also be smaller. I don't care if the remote is the magic one that everyone complains about, it's a cheap model... but it bothers me that you can't distinguish the buttons by touch, you have to look at it. You can easily find the sound and channel buttons, but not the arrows that I use a lot.

  Overall, very satisfied with my purchase. I heard a lot before buying, that all cheap models are the same, the brand doesn't matter and such. I also have a Hitachi model from 2021, I have that one too and the difference is huge, it was definitely worth the extra 50. I hope there will be good options in android at some point because only TCL plays in similar prices, but I don't read the best reviews about quality and CPU

  The menu could be more user-friendly by providing details, such as a summary of the program - unless I haven't fully understood its function. (For now, I have to go through all the stations and program times to see what I will watch and the summary of each show, and if a 'little picture' or letters appear on the screen with a simple touch of the remote control, you have to delete it to continue browsing. Definitely satisfied with my choice. Thanks to Skoutz, I also had immediate service!!!

  Unfortunately, the panel is a shame for LG to sell such televisions in 2022 that distort the image from such small angles. It reminded me of the times when the first LCD televisions came out so far back. Unfortunately, please note that I have been a certified electronics technician since 1994 and I love what I do very much!

  Personally, I didn't like the image at all. No matter how hard I tried, it didn't come to a satisfactory point. Too bad for LG because I have other products from them. Waste of money

  Unfortunately, the worst purchase I could make, and the worst... due to the good price for what it offers... I bought 2. One in the living room and one in my children's bedroom... Great disappointment...

  The choice was made between TVs mainly from the 2021 lineup.
  Compared to a fairly good LG TV from 10 years ago, the 32LE5300 (450€) of that period, this TV is nothing special in terms of image quality improvement (maybe even worse), it definitely lacks in sound and build quality!

  On the other hand, in terms of menus and options, it is definitely faster and things have definitely evolved in this area. Of course, the menus have become quite complex and useless for many people who do not want Netflix, etc.

  I tried to access some Greek TV channel websites on the internet, but kept getting SSL errors (date correction needed!!!) and long story short, I couldn't watch live streaming from any website! (Useful for us in the countryside since there are short digital signal interruptions in the winter and we don't want satellite). In other cases, when agreeing to privacy consent by clicking "I agree," the website wouldn't proceed!

  In conclusion, if you want a TV that is trouble-free for its price, with satisfactory image and sound quality, it is a good choice.
  It is definitely not a Hi-End option with very good image performance, sound, build quality, but in 32 inches, the truth is I don't know if there is anything top in this category, apart from the significantly more expensive QLED.

  Also, the small remote control of the TV with many small buttons creates a negative impression, not convenient for adults and not practical for others.

  Edit 5/1/22, the issues I mentioned above regarding internet browsing have been resolved with the TV software upgrade. There is no longer any issue with that.
  I stand by my opinion on the rest... and if needed, I will return by identifying something.

  I have spent a lot of time trying to make the picture acceptable. The main problem is that if you sit slightly to the side (and I literally mean a few degrees), the picture looks faded and white. You have to be right in front to see well. I did not expect this from LG. The menu is good, it has fast performance in its smart function and does not freeze.

  With the LG magic remote control (+35€), by far the best choice in its category.

  I have had it for a month now. Its picture quality is satisfactorily good. Its processor is quite fast. Channel switching is quick. Its downside is in its speaker and the remote control is not so user-friendly. Connecting to WiFi is easy and fast. However, it gets the job done.

  Unfortunately, I missed out on this purchase. I chose it for my bedroom to replace a Samsung 32 ... Well, very cheap construction, mediocre colors and the remote control is unacceptable.... Many useless buttons, the menu is not user-friendly.... It doesn't even have the Cosmote TV app.... I do not recommend it.
