Excellent TV

This TV is outstanding! Truly pristine picture. I've had several OLEDs from LG and Sony and this one takes the cake in my opinion. This is the first OLED where I have no problems at all watching with all the lights on. The G3 was a big step up in that regard and was close but it doesn't touch this. No connectivity issues with my Apple 4k or AVR; everything works flawlessly to this point. This is also the cleanest panel I've ever had (the 83s had issues in the past). Sound is average/about what you would expect but I don't really buy TVs for their sound. A top performer all around. Games, movies, regular TV all looks great to my eyes.

Despite receiving 4 faulty panels in a row (dead pixels on each), Best Buy did a fantastic job working with me to resolve the issues. I would not have gone through all the trouble if this TV was anything less than the absolute spectacle that it is. I assume a bad batch from the factory or shipping mishap damaged the first shipment they received. Some things can't be helped, so I'm not deducting any stars for that.

This TV is next level. The colors are vibrant and realistic, the blacks are deep, and WOW is this thing bright! The only thing I don’t like is how clunky the UI is. I feel like it should be a lot easier to change inputs.

LG G5 Worst Shadow Detail/Cache Issue/DTS Blocked!
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I returned the LG G5 83 inch after I had technical problem after problem. The tv had a color banding issue, which has now been resolved for Film Mode but not for Game Mode. The tv blocked all DTS audio on my television and denied passing through to my Home Theater sound system. Backdraft is only in DTS, so you can't watch anything in DTS. Also my Plex.TV LG App kept crashing during tv shows and movies due to a cache issue that even the G4 has. I had the latest firmware and cleared my cache and refused to fix this. This tv needs more internal memory. Seriously fix this! And now the Panasonic Z95B came out and you can clearly see the LG G5 is bright but the black crushing is bad and shadow detail is horrible on this television. Way overpriced.

Brand response from LG Digital Customer Care

Hi, Utahguru. We appreciate you sharing your detailed experience with the LG TV (OLED83G5WUA) model. We're always working to deliver reliable, high-quality products and excellent service, and your feedback is truly valuable to us.
To address the color banding in Game Mode, try adjusting the "Fine Tune Dark Areas" setting in the game optimizer menu, which may improve shadow detail. We understand that some LG TVs have different audio handling, and we aim for compatibility. For the Plex.TV app issues, clearing the app's cache might help, though we know you've tried that already.
We're here to assist you further. Feel free to message us on social media at @LGUSSupport. We're ready to help! ^Juvy

Fantastic. Would not use too close as a monitor etc due to dithering but other than that it’s exceptional

Waited & Shopped for the last 24 months! This is it. Just Buy it! The S95F is a close tie, BUT... NO 83 Inch! And, even that, I mean sometimes the G5 looks better about 60% of the time and the S95F does 40% of the time. But in 83 inch, the LG G5 wins 100% of the time. It is a No Brainer. CLEAR Winner. Been rewatching all my old shows on her

I just want to be the first review, replacing my 77” GX with this beauty. Just in time for the NBA playoffs!
