LG Electronics 55UK6300PUE 55-Inch 4K Ultra HD Smart LED TV (2018 Model)

I have to admit, I am not a "techie" savvy buyer. People who appreciate specs and numbers may not find my review helpful, HOWEVER, if you are someone who appreciates high quality, high ticket items that perform reliably and consistently...keep reading.I recently converted two bedrooms in my home into one large "glam room" fashion/filming studio for vlogging and video editing content for social media. My husband is usually in charge when it comes to electronic purchases and he would be able to rattle off specifications and compare this tv to the other tv's in our home. We have three 75+ inch tv's in other rooms in our home, in addition to a proper screening room/theatre, with some type of high def projector and electronic screen, automatic curtains and whatnot. To be honest, the entire set up is so very complicated that I usually have to have him turn everything on for me. I even find our less complicated LG OLED tv setup in his cigar room with the magic remote a little complicated (and annoying to use). Being that this particular purchase was going to be in a room that he rarely enters, I, quite frankly cared only about the following things:1. Picture quality/brightness2. Integrated sound that was good enough to NOT need a sound bar.3. EASY Internet Connectivity for streaming media4. EASY screen sharing/pairing to my iMac or cameras for video editing5. Reasonably PricedOriginally, I had decided to only get a 50" TV since it was going to essentially be in a giant walk-in closet/makeup room and I was going to be the only one using it. I didn't want to spend much more than $1000 and I really like the picture quality/ease of connectivity of our LG OLEDs so I started browsing LG brand tv's when I stumbled on this LG 65" LED tv at $541.00! I know it is not OLED, but for what I need it for it seemed perfect. I quickly jumped on the chance and had it delivered to my front door (damage free!), within two days using Amazon Prime. I also had pre paid for the expert installation through Amazon and they set up my appointment for the day of delivery, and I am SO glad I did.My TV was mounted, hung and installed within one hour of the technician's arrival. He set up the TV to my router and cable box and connected it to my wifi network. This purchase definitely exceeded my expectations. The brightness is spectacular. The sound is very good without a sound bar. I listen to music and watch videos all day and the sound does not get distorted at higher volumes. The TV was easy to set up and download and install all the apps and updates that I need. The remote is very basic, and easy to use and includes a button for both Netflix and Amazon. I can connect to my computer and other peripherals with one button and the price was an absolute steal.I do think that there is a difference between this TV compared to our OLED's when viewing cinematic movies, but not by that much that I would hesitate to recommend it to someone who is looking to purchase a solid high quality TV at an affordable price. I love it so much I actually ended up purchasing an additional identical set for our home office!

How this TV is listed for this price is beyond me. The picture, sound, interface and quality are incredible. It's so good I got my brother and sister to pull our money to get this same tv for our parents for Christmas.The only annoyance with it is the stupid legs LG uses for this model. My TV packaging also didn't include the screws for the mounting and that was frustrating, but I just chalked it up to a one-off mistake (my parents' tv had the screws). Once those are installed (two people is helpful) then it's smooth sailing from there.Side note, as some reviewers had mentioned, as soon as you set this TV up go to your Settings and TURN OFF the stupid power savings mode. It ruins all of the great features of this TV and any money it would "save" you is trivial anyway. This TV is extremely effficient and my energy bill has remained unchanged from my previous TV and it had fewer capabilities than this new one.I love LGs easy-to-use remote where you can quickly access any online streaming with a click of a button. Having separate Netflix and Amazon Prime buttons is also an awesome feature. Everything about this TV is so simple and the picture and sound quality is out of this world.4k in and of itself is a remarkable picture. 4k with HDR is an entirely different viewing experience. The colors variety within HDR is visible no matter what you're watching or playing. It takes 6-8 year old Xbox 360/PS3 video games and makes them years younger. The lighting/color on TV shows and movies makes any of them worth rewatching when it's with a new picture like this. The TV when it's off is true black and looks beautiful just sitting there. Connecting to Bluetooth speakers/headphones is a breeze and is a great option if you want to watch something but need to keep the volume close to you.Aside from the legs and missing screws I have no complaints about this TV. And trust me, I am never shy about voicing issues about products! I have searched high and low and never found a better value for a TV if the $500-$550 range is your budget. It is the gift that keeps on giving. Thank you, LG!

UPDATE: 2 years later, still great!So surprised at the picture quality for the price! Viewing 4K content is dreamy! Set up was quick and tv walks you through it after plug-in and power on. Remote included is more than sufficient for me, and magic remote is sold separately but I don’t really know if I want one. Preloaded apps update easily and quickly and include Netflix, Hulu, amazon prime video, with others available for download. Bluetooth function plays music or whatever from your smartphone, sound is good, but I’ll be adding a sound bar at some point. Overall, I’m very pleased! Legs are a little flimsy and require a philips head screwdriver FYI.

We had a 24” for he longest time because we lived in a really small apartment, but I have extremely poor vision and am partly colorblind so when we moved to a big place the old tv was impossible to watch with it bein more than a foot away. So I was trying to find a 55” or bigger tv that wasn’t stupidly expensiveBrowsed around and eventually ran into this one and it’s more than I was expectingThe visual and sound settings are perfect and give me options that are easy on my eyes and the picture looks greatNow I’m not one of those super anal about sound and picture people that goes looking for low priced stuff that sounds like super expensive stuff, but it’s what I personally was afterWe mostly play games on it and everything looks amazing
