LG 55UH85OT Super UHD TV Review

Smart televisions are no longer a fad. They are gradually becoming affordable and practical. In fact, smart televisions have the potential to takeover many of the functions now handled by a personal computer in the home.
LG has been at the forefront of innovation in this field. In fact, the first WebOS television is now years old. It was innovative then, and it is smart now. The latest from the Korean tech giant is the Super UHD range for 2016. We tested out the 55UH85OT Super UHD TV.

It is almost redundant to say that this 55-inch television is 4K since ultra HD screens are fast becoming the standard in at the top-end. LG has had bezel-less models in the recent past, but this one is not in that breed. There is a thin aluminum frame around the screen, and arced stand to prop up this giant display.
The best feature has to be the air remote, which seems to be a much-evolved version of what LG used to pack in the box with its first smart TVs many years ago.

Picture and sound
The picture quality of a 4K television, however, small can leave you in awe. So does the display of this one from LG. It is super crisp even with streamed content and the blacks are consistently deep all across.
The audio quality matches up to the goodness of the screen, though I think it is a bit too partial to base. It helps that there are multiple modes to improve audio quality, especially the preset modes for when you are using additional speakers to boost up the experience.

Software
Given that Android TVs are very practical with absolutely no learning involved, LG has done a great job making its latest webOS 3.0 as seamless and practical as possible. In fact, this TV has the fastest set up I have seen for a smart television. It is intuitive and does not waste time making you do silly stuff.
The wesOS 3.0 design is also very 2016 and smart. The remote has a dedicated button to bring up the smart screen whatever you are doing. It is pre-loaded with a lot of apps, including the most popular ones like YouTube and Netflix. While the YouTube interface has been customised for the remote, I thought the keyboard feature has been really simplified.
