LG 55UT8000 55 "

Balanced image

The 55UT8000 from LG, released in 2024, is an entry-level 55-inch TV. Despite this, it has a resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels and an upscaling function that improves the clarity of less detailed content. Direct LED backlighting is used to improve image contrast.

The LG 55UT8000 benefits from high-quality factory calibration, which ensures realistic color reproduction. The color gamut is well-balanced: the image looks bright, but not oversaturated. Peak brightness, although basic, does not allow HDR video (with HDR10 Pro support) to stand out significantly from the background of regular content.

Features for games

The TV demonstrates good performance in the gaming scenario. It is equipped with HDMI ports that support modern technologies such as ALLM, CEC and HGIG. This means that the model automatically switches to the gaming mode and optimizes color rendering for visual effects in games. There is also a proprietary Game Dashboard menu that allows you to flexibly adjust gaming parameters.

Smart TV

The LG 55UT8000 runs on webOS 24, which is fast and intuitive. The operating system offers advanced personalization options, including recommendations and a sports center with notifications about your favorite teams' matches. AirPlay 2 is supported for streaming and controlling content from Apple devices. In addition, integration into the ThinQ or Apple HomeKit smart home ecosystem is possible.

The functionality of the TV is complemented by the included multimedia Magic Remote. It allows you to control the device with both gestures and voice, including compatibility with voice assistants. The AI sound optimization function is also implemented: the built-in microphone records ambient noise, and artificial intelligence adjusts the acoustics.

The LG 55UT8000 is a great value for money choice that benefits from its proprietary remote control and competitive specs.
