The usual WiFi issues
As is discussed all over the internet this is a real issue connecting to the WiFi. Had it fixed under warranty and a month out of warranty it did it again. Waste of money.
Purchased in November 2021 at The Good Guys for $1,200.00.

Picture quality and signal issues
This Tv I purchased for the first time as a reputable brand. As I have had Hisense Tvs prior that were perfectly fine and had really good quality pictures. This TV had continual signal issues for Digital TV, and the picture pixelated even after adjusting the speed setting. Even some slow programs caused the same issue. The corners also had a lesser picture quality to them. I tried everything and was going to return under warranty but when moving it I dropped it. This isn't covered under the TV warranty. Go Hisense.

Don’t waste your time
The wifi constantly drops out and shows in Stan & Netflix etc stop playing. Can barely get through one movie or show without it dropping out once or twice. Then you go into settings and try to reconnect and it tells you the wifi is turned off! We had the model before this one and had it replaced under product care through harvey norman for the exact same reason but gave LG the benefit of the doubt as we liked everything else about the tv and that they may have fixed the issue but unfortunately its not the case! And its definitely not our internet connection as friends of ours have the same TV with the same issues!! DON’T BUY THIS TV!

Good TV, like their magic remote
TV good, easy to operate. Picture and sound quality above average. I would like to mention the magic remote, with cursor pointer, and you can even speak to the remote. Disadvantage is short battery life of the remote (about 3 months with light use), app expansion is not good (restricted to their limited apps LG web OS) and only 1 year warranty. Overall, will buy it again.

LG not what they used to be.
The tv had poor sound, it is tilled upwards when on the stand, it had internet filters permanently fitted, the screws ard impossible to fit. The picture is clean but for the money it should be better.
Purchased in February 2021 for $995.00.

Great Value 4K TV with great features
Bought this TV on clearance for just over $1,000.
At this price point I was not looking for OLED quality or direct backlighting, that said, I am very happy with the picture quality. Images are clear and 4K content looks fantastic on this TV. No issues with off centre viewing angles.
The features that come with most LG smart TVs are very good, including easy access to all main viewing apps and the ability to use bluetooth to listen to sound, either through headphones or a bluetooth could bar etc.
Some apps are not available in the LG c...Read more
ontent store at the moment, such as 7plus, but this can be accessed via freeviewplus when watching a 7 network station as well as via other platforms connected, such as AppleTV, PS4 etc, so no huge issue here. Feels like this is a sweet spot for price and value. This model is clearing out in readiness for 2022 models, so a good time to snag a bargain, as some stores still have stockSimilar opinion?

Five Star Reviews, Three Star Product
I was persuaded to buy this TV based on numerous 5 star reviews but this is not, IMHO, a 5 star product. Attractive looking flat screen. Good range of options. Marred by very slow remote response, TV guide display takes forever to come up. Sound quality average. Picture quality average - you need to be pretty much directly in front of the TV to get the best viewing results. Connected by LAN cable - network continually disconnects and connects causing notifications and TV station labels to pop up on screen - really annoying distraction. Don't think it is caused by my LAN connection. Problem seemed to go away when connected thru WiFi. Would I recommend this to anyone else, maybe.

Excellent TV - A First Time LG Buyer
Just bought this TV as a replacement after having to return a brand new Panasonic LED TV which had a terrible quality picture on it and was a complete waste of money.
This TV was very easy to set up and didn't take very long, has a crystal clear picture and natural colour even straight out of the box. There are some great features on it too (ie: apps, bluetooth compatible for headphones and has a 'magic' remote which works like mouse). Works well on all connected devices (Foxtel, TV streaming box, blu-ray and PVR) as well as free-to-air viewi...Read more

I just recently ordered this model tv, but I want to know how it compares to the LG uk7550 and is the extra $200 for that tv worth it? or just stick with this one? I’m primarily getting this tv for gaming and will be in my room for casual use.
1 answer
The UK7550 has "nano cell technology" some sort of LG specific "fancy LCD tech".
Taken from the LG advertising: "Nano Cell Technology Nano Cell Technology with IPS provides breathtakingly vivid and eye catching colour even at wide viewing angles, for an amazing experience."...
Chances are this fancy image filtering is TURNED OFF when running PS4PRO or Xbox One X in the TV's 'game mode'. Many of these fancy visual technologies only apply to playing very specific UHD blu rays or Netflix 4K + HDR. However, the LG LCD tv's are miles ahead of the budget Hisense/TCL/Soniq/Bauhn/other generic brand. If you can afford the better TV, always buy it.
