LG UH8500 TV experience is obviously inferior to OLED quality




As we all know, LG has been energetically developing OLED in the field of flat panel TVs. Its high image quality is impressive, and it has also been improved in terms of 4K and large size. However, 4K OLED TVs are still extremely expensive, so LG has not completely given up LED TVs. “Super UHD” is one of its main series.

This year, LG introduced Super UHD's flagship UH8500 series televisions, which are available in sizes from 55 to 75 inches. They are equipped with a Web OS 3.0 platform and support 4K resolution and HDR 10/Dolby Vision HDR standards. The starting price is US$1,399. About RMB 9360). So, is LG's LED TV more attractive than OLED? How is it compared to Samsung's Quantum Dot LED TVs? Take a look.

Slim design but with three HDMI 2.0

The LG UH8500 continues the brand's consistent thin and light design style. The extremely thin metal frame looks very beautiful, and the curved bracket design is also very distinctive. Its back uses a white plastic shell that is more refreshing than the black of a typical TV.


However, despite plenty of space on the back, LG only has three HDMI 2.0 ports for the UH8500, as does the largest 75-inch model. If you have a 4K TV box, a 4K Blu-ray player, and plans to purchase 4K games in the future, obviously there is no room for additional equipment. This is a disadvantage.

Quality advantages: bright, wide viewing angle, good HDR effect

The LG UH8500 is essentially a direct-lit side-lit LED TV with the advantage of a bright, clear picture that can easily reach 300 nits in its brightness and 320 to 550 nits in HDR mode. In addition, its color effects are also excellent in LED TVs. Another advantage of using the IPS panel is the viewing angle. You can see that there is almost no visible color cast from the side, and the viewing angle is more tolerant.


Reviewed also tested the LG UH8500 Blu-ray display effect, using the Samsung UBD-K8500 3D 4K Blu-ray player as an input device, and found that the overall picture is bright and delicate, while the dark parts in the picture have been significantly improved, whether it is brightness or color performance.


In addition, Web OS 3.0 is still a very good smart TV operating system. Its interface is clean and easy to use. All applications are arranged neatly along the screen and support a wide range of applications, such as Netflix.

Disadvantages: The screen is slightly "dirty" The black level is still not as good as OLED


Reviewed also discovered some obvious disadvantages of the LG UH8500 series during testing. First of all, when displaying certain specific images such as the sky and the ocean, it is found that the picture is slightly “dirty” and its uniformity does not seem to be good enough. In fact, this phenomenon is not common in edge-lit LED TVs.


In addition, the LG UH8500's black level and contrast are significantly different from those of the OLED. Even in the 4K HDR mode, the effect of insufficient contrast on the dim scene can be seen. Obviously, the IPS panel is powerless in this regard, and even LED TVs that use quantum dot backlight technology from Samsung and Sony are obviously at a disadvantage.

In addition, the refresh rate of the LG UH8500 when playing Blu-ray discs does not seem to be good enough, although the technical indicators reach 60Hz, but it will see some ambiguity; In addition, the local dimming mode is sometimes not smart enough, may occur Darker dark areas.

summary

Obviously, the LG UH8500 is a product that focuses on the mass market. IPS panels and LED backlights make it cheaper. The same size but LG OLED TVs are at least twice as expensive. In addition, supporting two HDR modes is also a selling point that meets the trend. Relatively speaking, LG UH8500 is more suitable for general family selection, but the OLED TV's shine is too dazzling, making the UH8500 series look less outstanding.
