I am happy with my TV now that it does not talk to me everytime I do something. YET at times it calls out to me after having been turn off the night before. I use a Fios controller and the LG controller. Turning off the set can be troublesome at times. I would like to disable Alexa. Judging sound quality is difficult as some movies and Stations such as PBS and English programing may be garbled. That is not the TVs fault.

I bought this TV for my winter residence almost 8 years ago. The TV has been used approximately 3 months per year with the exception of last year when it was not used at all. When not in use, it is unplugged. I thought that the TV was quite good until it ceased functioning recently. I understand that it is well out of warranty, but total usage is under 24 months. I was disappointed that LG did not stand behind its product when I phoned to discuss the situation. I thought that both the picture and the sound (through an inclded sound bar) were decent but, given the short lifespan of the product, I would not recommend LG TVs to anyone. I had inquired about having the unit repaired and was prepared to pay a portion of the cost but the only offer was 20% off a new LG TV. I have since purchased a competitor's tv.

It worked great for about 3 years. Then - blank screen - was told it was probably the main board. No help from customer support.

The screen went black after only 35 months of use. The picture quality was great but the TV didn't last.

The tv has a great picture. The problem we are having is with the included sound bar. There are times that we turn on the tv and get no sound. then other times the volume is uncontrollable even if you mute the tv it goes to full volume. The only way we have found to solve either of these problems is turn the set off and on until the situation is corrected

The only issue I have had is that the sound is better with the sound bar connected that came with the product.

The feature that most caught my attention on this T.V. is the web browser. I plugged a wireless mouse and keyboard into the usb port and I have a huge computer in my living room, Wow! Picture is awesome, linked it via the optical cable to my receiver and the 5.1 surround sound it great. This unit has met all my expectations!

I held out on buying a flat screen tv but couldn't pass up this one because of price, size, and options. I'm so glad I did! Easy to set-up, looks great on my living room wall, and love the smart tv feature. Came with a sound bar too.Love everything about it!

So far I love my tv and the sound bar. Even though the sound bar is only 2 channel it works well. The tv picture is excellent. The price was right.

An excellent product for the price. Many built in apps, all easy to use. Picture quality is great, as is the sound on the sound bar which came with it.

the product has great features, this is my 2nd LG HDTV, just like the 1st, I am pleased with LG products. 1 small issue is the remote that came with the tv does not have alpha capability, I had to purchase LG motion remote which works great.

I am very pleased with my TV. The clarity is amazing. The ease of set up and the very clear instructions had my TV up and running in short order. This is no small feat for someone "technically challenged" as I. I highly recommend LG.

For the price I paid, this LED TV more than fits the bill. Wanted a larger screen, but where it is placed the size is perfect. The LED display is crystal clear and the audio is perfect for the room.

It takes some getting used to a picture that is so clear the characters appear real or recorded via home video. I played with the brightness, contrast and other features to get it to my most pleasing picture. The auto back lit feature worked too well and I eventually disabled it to the medium setting as the background became too dark at times. I would recommend buying a dongle to allow use of the smart feature. We have already used the live streaming of Netflix a number of times The remote directional buttons are directly below the smart button. I have inadvertently hit the smart tv button when all I was trying to do was maneuver through various options.
