A very good set. I have one myself! Really recommend buying the magic remote too if this screen does not come with one, otherwise it's a real nightmare to use. The magic remote is basically a mouse with a scroll wheel. You just point it to the area on the screen and the mouse moves.
I'm still finding new features, connectivity is excellent, particularly with network content, bluetooth support etc.
The only real downside with these is that the IPS panel has a great viewing angle, but at the cost of getting muddy blacks. The local dimming does help, but the reality is that the local dimming is also a big distraction. You don't really ever get used to it so always noticing.
That said, I wouldn't want to swap it for another set, and will do me until OLED becomes a bit more affordable at this feature level and price point.
Mine was cheaper though, it was an amazon warehouse deal and ultimately only cost me around £400 + £50 for the magic remote.
The interface on these is particularly snappy, and there are continually updated apps so you can throw away the fire tv stick.
wasn't entirely sure, was hoping someone would be along to point these things out lol. To be honest I am stuck between this Tv and the LG 55UH850V which is obviously smaller, but presuming is the better panel of the two

get the 55UH850V, as 60" panels are not premium panels, get 55 or 65, never a 60

Real tempted by this but not sure if there is a better deal or better tv at same price!
Such a big decision

I did not have the magic remote. I installed the LG app on my phone. Had the TV a week and my Puggle ate my remote.:confused:

That's good to know FamGuy. That was my plan also to wait until the OLEDs come down in price. unfortunately my trusty 8 year old LG 50ps3000 1080p plasma got smashed at the weekend so have to make do with offers at the moment. was pretty gutted to be fair, reckon that had a good few years left in it still lol

I have this TV, not bad for PS4 XB1s HDR 4k and UHD Bluray. Paid 675.00 from Very when they had 10% off TV's. It only had 1 USB port and 3 hdmi. The apps are not great. Android is slightly better as you can install kodi.

Not to much of an issue for me in regards to apps etc as I have my pc hooked up for all media purposes. Was that offer just recently?
