What Buyers Say

LG UR340C Series 55UR340C9UD 55"

50 out of 100 low confidence 6 reviews

The single review praises the TV for saving the day after a competitor's delay, but the Q&A reveals significant limitations: no Bluetooth, no smart TV features, and no included mounting screws. The TV has an IP address accessible via the menu and uses M6 screws for VESA mounting. Overall, sentiment is mixed due to the lack of features despite the positive delivery experience.

Pros
  • Saved the day after competitor delay
  • IP address accessible via menu
Cons
  • No Bluetooth connectivity
  • No smart TV features
  • No wall mounting screws included

The TCL QM8K is widely praised for its impressive brightness, vibrant colors, and excellent HDR performance, rivaling OLED at a lower price point.
