Review of 65 Inch Lg Nano 8 Series 4k

Examination Results

Design

Curved No

The LG 75NANO80UNA has a decent, all the same elementary, pattern. It doesn't take a premium look like other models in the NanoCell Series, such equally the LG NANO81, and looks more similar the LG UN7000. It has somewhat thick bezels and the stand up consists of two feet instead of the centre-mounted stand found on college-end models.

The stand is fabricated of metal feet and it's nigh as broad as the TV itself, so you need a large table to identify it on. Sadly, the feet can't be placed inwards to suit smaller tables. The stand up supports the TV well, but there'southward still some wobble.

Footprint of the 75" inch Television: 62.9" x 13.1".

Wall Mountain VESA 600x400

The dorsum of the Telly is made of shine metal and doesn't accept whatever patterns etched into it. Sadly, there's no cable direction.

Borders 0.71" (1.8 cm)

This Goggle box has adequately thick borders, which may be distracting.

Max Thickness 2.68" (vi.eight cm)

The Boob tube itself is fairly thin, simply it may stick out a chip when wall-mounted due to the bulge at the bottom.

The LG 75NANO80UNA has a decent build quality. It's mainly metal and feels fairly sturdy. However, the back where the inputs are flexes a bit, and the Goggle box wobbles slightly, merely it's non bad.

Movie Quality

Native Contrast i,021 : one

Dissimilarity with local dimming North/A

The LG 75NANO80UNA has a mediocre contrast ratio, which is expected from an IPS panel. Blacks appear closer to grey when viewed in the dark, and there'due south no local dimming characteristic to farther improve the black level.

Automatic Effulgence Limiting (ABL) 0.023

The HDR peak effulgence is poor. It doesn't become bright enough to make vivid colors stand out in HDR and modest highlights are dim due to the TV'southward frame dimming.

We measured HDR summit brightness in the 'HDR Movie theatre' Pic Mode with Backlight and Contrast each at their max and Color Temperature set to 'Warm2'. In one case again, we got the brightest image possible with these settings, as seen in the 10% window.

Our unit has okay gray uniformity, simply this may vary between units. The edges of the screen are visibly darker and at that place's dirty screen upshot in the heart, which can be distracting during sports. Uniformity is much improved in near-night scenes.

Native Std. Dev. 1.958%

Std. Dev. w/ L.D. N/A

This Tv'due south black uniformity is unremarkable, merely it's better than other LG TVs nosotros've tested, such as the LG NANO81. There'due south some clouding throughout and in that location's backlight bleed near the lesser correct corner. Note that black uniformity may vary between units.

Color Washout 31°

Colour Shift 42°

Brightness Loss 34°

Blackness Level Raise lxx°

The LG 75NANO80UNA has adequately wide viewing angles, which is expected from an IPS panel. It'south suitable for broad seating arrangements equally the image remains authentic when viewing from the side.

Screen Terminate Semi-gloss

Total Reflections 5.5%

Indirect Reflections 0.five%

Calculated Direct Reflections four.9%

The LG 75NANO80UNA has decent reflection handling. Information technology performs well in moderately-lit rooms, but the reflections may be besides distracting with straight sunlight on information technology.

White Residue dE two.73

Color dE 2.xvi

Gamma two.05

Color Temperature 7,338 K

Picture Mode Practiced (Night Room)

Color Temp Setting Warm ii

Gamma Setting 2.2

The out-of-the-box accuracy is expert, but this may vary between units. Virtually colors and white rest are only slightly inaccurate, and it shouldn't be too noticeable for nigh people. However, the colour temperature is much colder than our 6500K target, and gamma seems to follow a two.0 target instead of ii.ii, and then most scenes are brighter than they should exist.

White Residue dE 0.39

Colour dE 1.13

Gamma 2.19

Color Temperature 6,941 K

White Balance Calibration 22 point

Color Scale Yeah

The color accuracy after calibration is outstanding. Any remaining inaccuracies with colors and white residue can't be spotted by the naked eye. Gamma follows the target virtually perfectly, and the color temperature is much closer to the 6500K target, simply it's still on the cold side.

You can come across our recommended settings here.

The LG 75NANO80UNA upscales 480p content, such every bit from DVDs, without whatsoever issues.

The LG 75NANO80UNA upscales 720p content, such as from cable boxes, well and there aren't any artifacts.

1080p content, such as from Blu-ray players, looks well-nigh equally expert as native 4k content.

The LG 75NANO80UNA displays native 4k content perfectly and at that place aren't any obvious problems.

This is a 4k TV that tin can't display an 8k indicate.

Like the LG UN7300, the LG 75NANO80UNA uses an ADS (Advanced Dimension Switching) console, which behaves like an IPS panel.

DCI P3 xy 86.33%

DCI P3 uv 91.85%

Rec 2020 xy 62.twoscore%

Rec 2020 uv 68.38%

The LG 75NANO80UNA has a good wide color gamut for HDR content. It has splendid coverage of the commonly-used DCI P3 color space, but its coverage of the wider Rec. 2020 color infinite is limiting.

The EOTF follows the target PQ curve fairly well until it rolls off at its peak brightness. The epitome is similar in 'Game' mode, as you can see in this EOTF.

If you discover HDR likewise dim and want the brightest image possible, enable Dynamic Tone Mapping, set Dynamic Contrast to 'High' with Brightness and Contrast at their max. This results in a slightly brighter epitome, as you tin encounter here.

Normalized DCI P3 Coverage ITP 70.nine%
