VA panel technology and 486 local dimming zones bring the LG into serious contention in the premium mid-range market, while all four HDMI 2.1 ports supporting 4K/144Hz give it a gaming edge over competitors. However, picture inconsistencies and poor audio quality hold it back from matching the very best.
