UH8500 Seriesby LG
PROS
- The wide viewing angle on LG's UH8500 Series sets makes them good options for sports or family movie time. Pictures look equally good from a range of seating positions.
- The UH8500 Series sets are among the few TVs that support both the HDR10 and Dolby Vision high dynamic range formats.
- Minimal motion blur and low input lag make LG's UH8500 Series a good choice for gaming.
CONS
- Relatively light black levels on the UH8500 Series make it a less than optimal choice for watching movies in a dark room.
- The UH8500 Series peak brightness capability is not that impressive compared with other high dynamic range-capable UHDTVs, especially ones with Ultra HD Premium certification.
- The local dimming backlight feature on LG UH8500 Series sets does little to improve contrast and overall picture quality.

Despite the fancy-sounding features and cutting-edge compatibility, the UH8500 is not among the best-performing TVs available. It shows some strengths, including accurate color and the excellent bright-room qualities of high light output and an effective anti-reflective screen. But washed-out black levels and excessive blooming, especially evident with HDR material (regardless of format) resign its overall picture quality to a level below most peers.
