Our take on the LG LED TV 55 4K A5 HDR10 PRO SMART TV WEBOS 22 55UQ80006LB

The LG 55UQ80006LB is a 55-inch 4K LED TV with a direct-lit panel, HDR10 and the a5 Gen5 processor. It runs webOS 22, so you get LG's full smart platform with all the major streaming apps, a Magic Remote-style pointer interface and built-in Wi-Fi and Ethernet. It suits buyers who want a big, simple 4K set for a living room or bedroom and don't need OLED contrast or 120Hz gaming. Against rivals at the same tier it is a solid all-rounder, though its edge-lit-style direct LED panel and 60Hz refresh put it behind mini-LED and OLED sets for blacks and motion.

What reviewers say

5 / 559,797 ratings

Ratings are very high, and owners mostly praise the picture for the size, the easy webOS setup and the built-in apps. Complaints are fewer but consistent: blacks look grey in dark rooms and the panel is not a gaming-first set.

Questions and answers

Is this TV good for gaming?

It handles casual console play, but the 60Hz panel and lack of HDMI 2.1 features mean it is not aimed at competitive gaming. A 120Hz set suits fast shooters better.

Does it support Dolby Vision?

No. It supports HDR10 and HLG, not Dolby Vision. Dolby Vision content plays in standard HDR.

What is in the box?

The TV, a stand, a remote and the power cable. A wall mount and HDMI cables are not included.

Can I wall mount it?

Yes, it uses a standard VESA wall mount pattern. The stand can be removed for wall mounting.

Does it have built-in Wi-Fi?

Yes, Wi-Fi and an Ethernet port are both built in, and webOS apps stream over either connection.

How does it compare with LG's OLED sets?

OLED gives true blacks and much better contrast, while this LED set is brighter for a well-lit room and simpler for everyday viewing.
