Our take on the LG 86QNED80TUC 86" 4K UHD LED Smart TV QNED Big Screen Television (2024)

The LG 86QNED80TUC is an 86-inch 4K QNED TV, LG's mid-tier LED line that adds a quantum dot layer and a wide color gamut over plain LED sets. Its size is the main draw: at 86 inches it fills a large wall and gives a big-screen feel for sports and movies without stepping up to Mini LED or OLED. It runs webOS with LG's Magic Remote and the usual streaming apps, and includes HDMI 2.1 features for console gaming. Compared with LG's QNED Mini LED and OLED models it gives up some contrast control and black level, so it suits bright rooms and buyers who want maximum screen for the money rather than the deepest blacks.

Questions and answers

Is the LG 86QNED80TUC good for gaming?

Yes. It has HDMI 2.1 inputs that support 4K at 120Hz and variable refresh rate for current consoles. It is not as fast as an OLED, but it is well suited to big-screen gaming.

How does QNED differ from OLED?

QNED is an LED panel with a quantum dot layer, so it gets bright and holds color well but cannot switch pixels off individually. OLED gives per-pixel contrast and deeper blacks but generally lower peak brightness.

How does it compare with LG's QNED Mini LED models?

Mini LED sets have many more, smaller backlight zones, so they control blooming and black level better. The QNED80TUC is the simpler edge-lit-style LED design and costs less for the same screen size.

What is in the box?

The TV, its stand, the Magic Remote, and the power cable. You supply the HDMI and antenna cables.

Does it support wall mounting?

Yes. It uses a standard VESA mount pattern, and because of its size and weight a heavy-duty bracket and a stud-fixed install are needed.

Is 86 inches too big for a normal room?

For a typical living room it is very large. Viewers should sit roughly 8 to 12 feet back to take in the whole picture comfortably.
