Our take on the LG 65SM8100AUA 65" Nano Cell 4K Ultra HD Smart LED TV (2019)
The LG 65SM8100AUA is a 65-inch 4K LCD TV from LG's 2019 Nano Cell line, sold in black. It uses an IPS panel with wide viewing angles, runs the webOS smart platform with Wi-Fi and ATSC tuner, and offers three HDMI inputs. Its edge-lit backlight and modest peak brightness put it below full-array local-dimming sets for HDR punch, but it suits bright rooms and family viewing where off-angle seating matters. Owners generally like webOS and the design; picture-quality enthusiasts often steer toward brighter or full-array rivals.
- Wide viewing angles from the IPS panel
- webOS smart platform with major streaming apps
- Slim, understated black design
- Three HDMI inputs plus USB
- Simple setup and remote
- Edge-lit backlight gives uneven blacks

Questions and answers
- Is this TV good for bright rooms?
- It handles reflections reasonably and has wide viewing angles, but its brightness is modest, so very sunny rooms may wash out HDR highlights.
- Does it support HDR?
- Yes, it accepts HDR10 content, but the panel's limited brightness means the HDR effect is subtle rather than dramatic.
- What is Nano Cell?
- It is LG's name for an LCD panel with a nanoparticle filter layer intended to broaden color. On this model it does not add local dimming or extra brightness.
- How many HDMI ports does it have?
- Three HDMI inputs, along with USB ports for media playback and a tuner for over-the-air channels.
- Is it good for gaming?
- It is a 60Hz panel without advanced gaming features, so it is fine for casual play but not for competitive gaming.
- Does it come with a stand?
- Yes, a tabletop stand is included, and the set can also be wall-mounted with a compatible bracket.
