LG QNED99 8K QNED TV Review | IPS Redeemed!

LG's QNED99 is a flagship 8K LED TV with mini-LED backlight technology, quantum dots, and a slightly confusing name. With all that tech inside, it's possible this could be LG's best-looking LED-based TV, but does LG's IPS LCD panel get in the way or finally shine?

Mini-led is having its day in the sun. Hisense dual cell is coming, and then maybe QD OLED next year? What new TV tech are you most excited about? I’m not sure I’m sold on mini-LED yet.

BRAVO, Caleb, BRAVO!
I have this QNED99 tv 65", and you Hit this Review out of the Park!
Love it!

I've had this exact TV for well over a month. I love this TV, and like you said towards the end, I just sit back and watch it, and I think it's awesome.

I just purchased this TV, even though it’s a 2021 model based on your recommendation. I’ve been a follower of your reviews for some time and have found them credible and informative. It’s funny how other reviewers seem to push one brand over others, regardless of what brand they’re actually reviewing. Some of your reviews, especially on this Qned99 are a complete contrast to theirs, buti trust your judgement. So thanks for keeping it honest and real and I’m sure i won’t regret the purchase based on your review. PS - if it’s not like your review, World Domination will not happen 😊😂.

B The Installer completely trashed talked the QNED99 but keep hearing really good reviews about this TV.

This channel and Fomo are my favorites, and Caleb, you are always a friend in my mind. The TV is looking good, but even from this side of the screen, I am not as wowed as the TCL 6 Series 8k. A head2head will need to happen for sure. Of course considering the pricing as well, there must be a clear winner. Great video, I'm excited for the 4k version!!!

[MSDOGS]

I took a chance on a qned85 4k tv in a 65" and have been very pleased. And at it's current price @ $1, 100 it is a good buy imo.

[LineageStone]

I find it beneficial to see what displays can arrive damaged or the frequency of dirty screen effect. I hate getting damaged products. It makes me feel like I am less likely to freak out after spending big bucks and receiving one of these. If it happens even to you, I feel I can calmly pack it up and return it for another, and avoid getting irrational about a delicate piece of electronics not making it from the manufacturer to me in perfect condition. Keep up the good work.

Forget the haters Caleb, people would be upset if you gave them the display, thanks for all the hard work & dedication you provide! Thanks for sharing a detailed vlog on LG QNED99 and God bless!

Alright fine, I've subscribed. That reference to Ned Flanders deserves a hit to the subscribe button. Hope this helps with your world domination.

[richardnickell]

The one thing I miss any review is the pricing. I don't know if that a YouTube thing or what. When picking out a new TV I always go with what's in the budget. Since the MSRP is never mentioned it's a lot if research. This would be a tv I might purchase or not.

Best tv review channel followed by hdtvtest both in their own way of presentation

[kingsking]

You’re not the same guy from last year ...you’ve lost weight and look healthier 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[RichardServello]

I have a QNED 90 and it is AMAZING. So beautiful. The HDR response is stellar!

[majorkursk]

More interested in your providing a review on the LG QNED 90 4k model.

[finestpix]

You make technical data sound almost exciting! Between an LG C1 83inch at $5, 000 and an LG QNED 86 inch at $4, 700, which one is the better deal?

[m_schauk]

Can't wait for those VS videos! And I'm very excited for the 4k version review b/c it's closer to my budget! Also, wasn't mad and there is nothing to forgive other than LG's long shipping time.

[henryphilippeaux]

Caleb, you didn’t mention anything at all about ATSC 3 on this TV. Do you know whether any TV with that tuner allows you to watch PiP? I like the idea of watching 2 different channels at the same time.

[djrc]

Fluked into an 86 QNED99 and also had an 83 A90J at the same time in the same room side by side. After a couple of days of comparison with quality source films and material, the A90J was returned and kept the LG. Was an easy choice. Its that good.

LG WebOS used to be the fastest and smoothest OS smart tv, with Android tv seems the sluggish one, but now Sony's google tv became smoother and faster than any OS tv on the market
