Is OLED worth it over an LED TV?

If you watch in a dim room and care about black levels and off-angle viewing, yes. In a bright room or on a tight budget, a good LED set is the safer pick.

It is possible with static logos, tickers or game HUDs left on for long stretches. Vary content and use the screen-off and pixel-refresh features to lower the risk.

Is it bright enough for a sunny living room?

It handles normal rooms fine, but it will not match the brightest LED sets in direct daylight. Closing blinds helps for daytime movies.

Does it support voice assistants?

Yes. Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa are built in, alongside LG's own voice control on the remote.

What sizes does it come in?

It is sold in 55, 65 and 77-inch versions. The panel and features are the same; only the size and weight change.

Do I need a soundbar?

For everyday TV it is adequate. For films and music, most owners add a soundbar or AV receiver.

Our take on the LG 4K HDR Smart OLED TV 55-inch

A 55-inch OLED TV from LG's 4K HDR smart line, sold in 55, 65 and 77-inch sizes. OLED panels switch pixels off individually, so blacks are true black and contrast is far deeper than on LED-LCD sets at the same size. It runs LG's webOS smart platform with Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa built in, plus Wi-Fi, Ethernet, HDMI, USB and RCA inputs. It suits movie and dark-room viewers who want wide viewing angles and deep contrast; LED rivals generally go brighter for daytime rooms and cost less at large sizes.

Pros

True black and near-infinite contrast from self-lit OLED pixels
Wide viewing angles with little color shift off-center

OLED panels cost more than same-size LED sets
Built-in speakers are thin; a soundbar helps for films
