  LG: incredibly easy and user-friendly menu and the magic remote control is an amazing convenience!!! For these reasons, I choose only LG!!

  This review is about the diagonal: 55 "

  There is the issue that other buyers have mentioned with the panel's inconsistency, resulting in vertical dark lines appearing on the image which are very annoying. I bought the first one, the technician came, identified the issue and it was replaced. The second one that came had exactly the same issue so I returned it and got my money back. I spent a bit more money, got an OLED from another company and so far I am super satisfied. Otherwise, good although a bit slow menu, good sound, nice features, quality in relation to its price, good response from the service and overall good service from LG. However, this issue with the image overshadowed all the positives.

  In the short time that I have had the television, it seems to me that it is very good. It has a very good picture, good sound, and user-friendly menu. The remote control is excellent as well as the quality of its materials. I have also added a soundbar and movies become captivating.

  Unfortunately, despite its many features, user-friendly menu, and numerous applications, the poor LED panel ruins the entire experience. It has very bad viewing angles and uneven backlighting to the point of being very bothersome in dark content. LG considers this normal (according to my communication with them). This is the first time I have bought a television and I am looking for an excuse not to open it.

  I took the trouble to write this review to help those who are interested in buying this TV. The review concerns the 43" model with software version 03.20.61.
  Overall, the TV comes pre-set with a bunch of "smart" AI features or energy-saving settings, etc. I found them problematic and I must admit that I was shocked by how poor the sound and image quality was until I figured out what was going on.
  Also, as soon as it turns on for the first time, it asks for registration and creating an account on www.lgappstv.com, which, if I remember correctly, is divided into 2 or 3 sections that you have to agree to (where exactly you agree is several pages) in order to access certain features of the TV. This was the first step that had to be done before even seeing the image. I didn't understand why it was necessary to agree to everything, but on the other hand, access to features based on consent has become tiresome. I won't go into details because I didn't understand how it works. If I find out more, I will update.
  So, initially, don't be scared. Disable any "smart" function, settings that are not clear what they do, or settings that save "something" and start from scratch.
  Overall
  Compared to other models in the category in expos, it has more or less the expected build quality. The plastics are average (probably good), while the frame around the panel is very thin, almost invisible. It has a central support that forms a crescent moon. This suited me because I didn't have space for a TV with legs on the edges. However, if you want to place devices underneath it, it might be a problem.
  Remote Control
  It is large, slightly old-fashioned, and heavy, but it has everything you need, including dedicated buttons for streaming channels (Netflix, Disney+, etc.). It also has a microphone for those interested in using voice commands (I didn't try if they work in Greek). It can also function as a "mouse" with a little practice. The TV can be connected via Bluetooth as well.
  Viewing Angle
  It is very sensitive to the viewing angle, both horizontally and vertically. A small movement is enough for the contrast and color accuracy to change dramatically. So, depending on where you plan to place it, you may need to have it slightly tilted to achieve the best angle. Keep this in mind if you want to see it in an expo before making a purchase. I saw it in a large store in Syntagma, side by side with another LG model that interested me. So, I had the opportunity to see both of them live (in completely wrong viewing positions, of course, as a young salesman told me, they put the "big ones" in the good positions).
  Menu
  It is really slow. Very slow. Sometimes you wait to see what will happen while wondering if you pressed the right button. However, it responds immediately to the +/- channel and volume options. Overall, it is detailed and you can have direct access to the last function you edited.
  Panel Quality
  It reflects a lot and reflects any light source in the room. However, for its price category, it is not bad. When the signal is good, it delivers decent colors, tones, and contrast.
  Sound
  The sound is loud and generally clear. There is the possibility of intervention through the 5-channel equalizer, which improves performance considerably. Obviously, it cannot be compared to the quality of a sound bar or a home theater system, but for watching TV and streaming services at reasonable volumes, I think it will adequately meet expectations. Generally, sound as a parameter of this television is the easiest to reach decent levels (unlike the picture). It has an automatic sound leveling feature that helps prevent sudden changes in volume when switching channels. Finally, it has an AI function for optimal sound adjustment by detecting the room's acoustics through the microphone on the remote control! In practice, it didn't do much, so I went back to full manual settings.
  Picture
  And now we come to the crucial point, the picture. I will present a series of steps, as a methodology, to keep the review short and concise. If you follow them, I believe you will figure it out:
  1. Download the manual from LG. It is quite informative and will save you time from experimenting.
  2. Make yourself a cup of coffee and choose a time when your partner doesn't want to watch anything.
  3. As I mentioned above, disable any pre-settings and start with full manual.
  4. Keep in mind that different picture modes are available for HDR and non-HDR signals. I didn't understand why, but I noticed that the common ones are Vivid, Standard, Cinema, and FILMMAKER MODE. Also, even in the common modes, depending on the signal, the intermediate options are not always the same or not always available. If anyone else in the group knows how HDR affects the way settings are determined, please enlighten us.
  Writing this review, I discovered that FILMMAKER MODE is something like a certification that the TV is capable of delivering the movie experience exactly as the creator intended (quoting as I found it, "watch your movies and TV shows the way the filmmakers intended"). This mode is likely the basis for your experiments (more here: https://www.whathifi.com/advice/what-is-filmmaker-mode-is-it-any-good-and-should-you-turn-it-on).
  5. Choose a good image source. I used Netflix, where there are HD, HD HDR, 4K, and 4K HDR series. The signal from TV channels is HD (non-HDR). When the signal is HDR, the TV displays an icon in the upper left corner.
  6. Select one of the common picture modes and start experimenting with HDR images. Keep the settings and repeat with non-HDR images.
  7. Adjust over time until you achieve a setting that performs "well" with "all" signals.
  Conclusion
  In summary, I would say it is a decent purchase that should be judged based on its price range (≈ $400.00 with shipping) and adjusted according to our requirements and expectations. It is not the model that will be the center of attention in a living room, nor will it impress the masses. However, it can stand up as a low-budget purchase or a second TV in a bedroom or office. If you dedicate some time to experimenting with the settings, I believe you will be able to make the most of it for all types of entertainment.
  Of course, I would prefer if the factory presets were closer to what I ultimately ended up with after experimenting, in order to avoid initial disappointment and save time.
  I am still experimenting, and if there are any significant changes in the future (e.g., a new software version), I will come back with an update. Finally, download the manual from LG because it has quite interesting points.
  The missing star is mainly for the slow menu.

  This review is about the diagonal: 65 "

  While it has excellent contrast for its category and very good "blacks," it has a poor uniformity on the panel that in gray conditions or at other times is very noticeable and annoying. And it's not a defect but a manufacturing issue. It's a shame because otherwise it would be a perfect choice. See the photo and you will understand

  This review is about the diagonal: 50 "

  I bought the TV a few days ago at 50". I can't judge its picture quality yet, although I liked it quite a bit in various stores where I saw it. I am writing to inform potential buyers that it is very fast in menu navigation or channel switching (in contrast to a Samsung 7172 that I also have) and that the magic remote is very convenient and useful. I also really like its sound. Lastly, I would like to note that it is very well-made, in contrast again to the Samsung, and it seems to be made of better quality plastics with better assembly. For now, I am very satisfied with my choice!

  For a simple LED, it has a very good picture and we are talking about 65 inches. The build quality is quite good, definitely worth its money. The photo is bad, but I didn't have another one now

  We have had it for about a month and I believe it is very good for its price. Nice viewing image, very good sound, and user-friendly menu. We are still learning it, of course. So far, it is very good.

  For its price, it is very good. The viewing is good from any angle on the 65" screen. I would prefer the WebOS to be a little faster. The ThinQ app is very good for easy control from a smartphone with touchpad functionality. The Magic remote is exceptional as always.
