What Buyers Say

78 out of 100 low confidence 7 reviews
The LG QNED85 TV receives mostly positive feedback for its picture quality, color vibrancy, and smart features, with many users praising the value for the price. However, a few verified reviews highlight significant issues: one unit failed after several months and LG refused warranty coverage, while another notes light bleed and poor HDR contrast. Sound quality is frequently mentioned as mediocre, but most buyers consider it acceptable given the price point and plan to use external sound systems.
