LG QNED evo AI QNED85A Series 100QNED85AU 100"
The LG TV receives mostly positive reviews for its excellent picture quality, vibrant colors, and good value for the price. However, a significant number of users report serious issues with the remote control, particularly the lack of a dedicated mute button, which can be very frustrating. While the TV itself performs well for movies, sports, and gaming, the remote problems have led some to use alternative devices like a Fire TV Stick. Overall, it is a great TV marred by a poorly designed remote.

- Vibrant and customizable colors
- Good value for the price
- Immersive 100-inch screen
- Great for sports and gaming
Cons
- No dedicated mute button on remote
- Poor documentation and manual
- Remote sound bar design is inconvenient
- Occasional audio switching to internal speakers
- Cannot set quick access to apps without number pad
