LG UN8100: 4K 2020 mid-range review (UN81006LC)

The LG UN8100 (UN81006LC) is a lower-middle-range TV with an image that offers natural colors and a good viewing angle thanks to its IPS panel. Uniformity is not bad, it is a direct LED and have native 50Hz (low range). The available size is 43 to 75 inches (the 50 "is not recommended is a VA panel). The Smart platform is good and includes the MagicControl remote control. This TV has a 4K resolution and is compatible with HDR, but it is not with the best formats since the panel is 8 bits The LG UN8000 is the same television but with a two-leg base design.
The other 8000 series model is the LG UN8500 and it is only available in sizes of +75 inches: it has a better panel with native 100Hz and supports DolbyVision.

• Best: Smart, viewing angle

• Samsung TU8500: Panel VA somewhat better for deeper balcks but worse viewing angle.
• LG UN7300: similar, practically identical, with one less HDMI port

Our opinion LG UN8100 (veredict):

Our opinion on the LG UN8100 is not entirely good, it is a television that offers only its younger brother: the LG UN7300, which for us is practically the same and can be obtained cheaper. We recommend that you look in stores for this theoretically inferior model, but that it will actually give the same performance as the UN8100 at a slightly lower price. If you are looking for another type of image, with deeper blacks even if it is the cost of losing the angle of vision, we recommend looking for TVs with a VA panel such as the Samsung TU8000
