What Buyers Say
LG QNED evo AI QNED85A 55"
73 out of 100 medium confidence 17 reviews
The LG QNED85 series delivers outstanding picture quality with vibrant colors, deep blacks, and excellent brightness, making it a top choice for movies, sports, and gaming, especially with 120Hz refresh rate support. However, the remote has been heavily criticized — lacking a dedicated mute button, requiring awkward workarounds or a separate remote app subscription. Setup is easy, but the included documentation is poor, and some users noted issues like white corner rings or sound reverting to internal speakers occasionally. Overall, it offers great value for the price, particularly for the larger screen sizes.
