LG QNED 75QNED70AUC 75"
This LG QNED TV delivers vibrant colors and excellent brightness, making it a solid upgrade from basic UHD models without the high cost of OLED. However, backlight bleed on letterbox content is a notable flaw that affected two units, lowering the overall grade. For casual full-screen viewing, it offers great value, especially at holiday pricing.
Pros
- Vibrant colors and excellent brightness
- Great value for casual full-screen viewing
- Easy to set up and personalize
- Good picture quality for the price
- Clear from all angles

- Backlight bleed on letterbox content
