Reviews
LG 86" UT81 Smart 4K UHD TV (2024) with webOS is rated 4.3 out of 5 by 146.
Rated 1 out of 5 by from Frustrating and annoying. I bought this TV and began set-up. First from the start the voice assistant spoke really fast, perhaps a clue something was wrong. The remote is horrible, I was unable to even enter my email address in the set up, After a few letters it would jump past the address bar and not let me back. The remote has a mind of it's own and jumps all over the screen with no input. After finally getting my xfinity app loaded I found I could not access the guide. Even my ten year old fire tv functioned normally and allowed access to the guide. After several of the most frustrating hours I have ever spent with any tv I packed it up and returned it to the store. Very disappointing!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Welcome to you immersive experience [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow!!!! The LG 86'' UHD television is absolutely amazing. It is massive, intuitive, and the experience you get while watching something on it is out of this world! We could not wait to put it up. You do need a very sturdy bracket but once it is up, it is pretty easy and quick to setup. The remote is like a mouse, which took a little getting used to but so much easier than a traditional remote with direction buttons. With HD programs is where this tv comes alive. The picture is flawless, bright and the refresh rate is amazing. Did I mention it's absolutely huge! My family love movie nights now!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Picture and sound is excellent [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the look and this 86 inch screen! I was sceptical we needed this size, but now I have experienced watching all my favourite basketball games is high definition I cannot go back. I also love the look of all my favourite sci fi movies on this screen. I can stop pining for a home projector now. I am enjoying the AI features that automatically detect whether I am watching a movie or live sports and adjust to the best picture and sound settings. I work full time and these features maximise my enjoyment of the product. The operating system did not work first go, but after resetting the TV it worked well.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Cinematic experience from home I purchased this 86inch tv hesitantly, as I want to create a cinema room at home, but wasn't sure if this would be too big. However I am very glad I purchased it. I found it a bit fiddly to attach the stand, but got there in the end. And the tv is very heavy. The colour, picture and sound quality definitely makes up for any minor issues as mentioned. Once the tv is turned on, the set up is very simple, with the option to either set up using mobile or manually with the remote. The colours and picture quality is crisp. No issues. Great sound. I'm going to enjoy watching series and movies, as well as a bit of gaming! Very happy with this purchase and would recommend

Rated 5 out of 5 by from No issues, great TV I recently bought this tv and i have no regrets buying it after my old LG after 13 yrs gave up on me unfortunately, the motherboard gave up, it happens. I've read some negative reviews about this particular tv and don't see any issues, obviously people who wrote negstive reviews have no idea what they are talking about. Very easy to setup if you follow the on screen instructions, setting up my LG SN10 sounbar again, no issue. If you mix and match, yes you probably will come across issues, but this is not the TV's fault, it's the fault of the consumer who would rather just blame the product, rather than themselves, because its easier. Would without hestitation recommend this TV.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great value for money [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After a weeks usage I am happy with the overall quality of the product. The picture is really crisp for such a large device and I am yet to experience any Lag with movies or sports. The setup process was seamless and the controller and the LG ThinQ app are really easy to use. I have however, had ongoing issues with interface latency and I find the home-screen interface busy and clunky. Like most TVs, I would recommend having a soundbar or sound system as the audio quality from the device is not desirable. Overall, I think this is a great value-for-money large TV and would recommend this product based on the value for picture quality and size.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Overall happy [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using for a month now and overall very happy. The picture quality is great for a large 86 inch TV. There was one hiccup trying to get the universal remote to work but after trying a few times and a power cycle, it eventually worked. I also get an error message from the TV OS sometimes when starting saying it is out of memory. The TV picture itself I can’t fault but the webOS operating system obviously does have some bugs that need to be addressed. I use an Apple TV for most of the control and app usage so the webOS issues don’t really bother me. If your were using it natively to run apps through the OS though, it would become annoying.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Cinema in my own front room! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We recently upgraded our 55in TV to the 86 Inch LG UHD 4K Smart TV 2024. Were we nervous getting a telly quite that huge? YES. Do we regret it? Absolutely not! It was all set up in a matter of minutes and you are prompted for app installations and which settings you prefer. The QR code and phone setup was so easy and the whole process from start to finish was seamless. The picture quality is 10/10! Such a clear, crisp picture for such a huge TV. I was sceptical when ordering but I am so pleased with it! The sound and picture settings are easy to tinker with to your personal preference and we would highly recommend to anyone who wants to create a cinema feel in your own front room.

Setting up Tv… Is there a protective film over the screen to remove?

Asked by: Susan 7
Hey Susan. Depending on where your LG TV was shipped from, it might have a protective cover on the screen to keep it safe during delivery. You can just look for a PEEL HERE tap on the corner of your TV. You can gently peel off this cover from the edges. You can just take your time to avoid scratches. Once it's removed, you can start enjoying your new TV! For more questions, private message us on social media @LGUSSupport. We're just a click away! ^David

Where are the 55UT80's VESA mounting holes placed? I understand that it's a 300x300mm pattern, but is it centered both horizontally and vertically across the TV's body? I haven't been able to find any pictures of the backside. Also, not on the QSG.

Asked by: zlee
Hey there! That's a great question. The VESA mounting holes are not centered vertically on the back of the display; rather, they are centered horizontally. The mounting holes sit slightly lower than the center to better support the display's center mass while mounted. If you're looking for pictures of the back, we recommend looking at some of the review photos from other users to understand the location of the mounting holes better. If you need specific measurements, please feel free to reach out to us on social media @LGUSSupport. We'll be happy to help! *Joseph

What LG soundbars are compatible with the UT8000. It looks like some actually connect to the tv....or hang from it.

Asked by: Artie T
Hello, Artie T. The 43-inch Class UT8000 4K TV with webOS 24, Model # 43UT8000AUA, is a Bluetooth-enabled TV, it features an HDMI eARC port and an Optical Digital Audio Output, so it can be connected to any of our Soundbars that support all of the above. However, since the TV does not support Dolby Atmos®, DTS:X, or features like WOW Orchestra or WOWCAST Built-in with Wireless Dolby Atmos­­®, you will not be able to take advantage of those features on Soundbars that support them. We do not have any Soundbars that have a compatible LG Synergy Bracket that can be used to attach them directly to the UT8000 series TVs or hang from the series...^Ivan
