Solid mid-level TV
I am reviewing the LG 55inch nano 75 series tv. To the point, I have lots of TVs, projectors, etc. and buy good stuff. I am comfortable with technology. In my opinion, this is a really nice mid-level tv. Not the cheapest, and far from most expensive. I just needed a 55inch tv to put in a shared space, not a main tv, so buying the best wasn’t critical. But, I also didn’t want the most basic tv either, and this tv fit that goal perfectly.
I read a few bad reviews, but owning other LG TVs and having good experiences, I choose to purchase, and I’m glad I did. This tv punches above its specs/price point. No issues at all.
Most of the negative reviews seem to be from those annoyed with how advanced the technology is on this tv, and their challenges with using it. And I can understand why. The tv is a bit modern in the interface, but once you learn how it works, it works really well. Honestly a good interface, my complements to to user design team. My only complaint is how the tv tries to sell you on itself and it’s features in one of the boxes on the Home Screen, and you can’t make that box go away. Otherwise, the remote works well, and yes, it has a mouse like button, and it works really well, but if you don’t like it, you don’t have to use it. Instead, you can click on the up down right left buttons to scroll through the menus. No issues. From reviews I read I was worried, but for no reason.
Yes, it’s a smart tv and you will spend 15 minutes setting up the WiFi and access settings upon first use, but after that, it’s all goodness. It should go without saying that any smart tv will rely on you to provide a good WiFi connection and adequate internet bandwidth.
In summary, this is a good tv. Unless you are technology adverse, or challenged, or you expect the OLED experience at half price, you will love it.
If this is to be your primary viewing tv, I would suggest upgrading to a model with native 120hz (aka 240) and hdmi v2.1. But for a secondary tv, or a tv on a budget without buying the most basic model, the nano 75 series is a good tv that I can solidly recommend.
