LG 55SJ850V 55 inch Super UHD Premium 4K HDR Smart LED TV (2017 Model)

4k content is fine, good details. Sound is good.
I still get caught by the wow factor of the crisp picture and natural colours (not overly bright as some 4K Tv's seem to push out).
It's the equal to or better than the main competitors, ie, Samsung, Panasonic etc. 4K is worth it.
Netflix 4k built in is amazing, almost too clear so that it feels fake.

Samsung UE55MU7000TXXU SOLOCO 55inch UHD 4K LED SMART TV HDR1000 Twin Tuner

The UHD 4K picture when playing my 4k blu ray discs is fantastic.
Can hardly tell the difference between an up scaled Blu-ray movie disc and an actual '4K' Blu-ray movie disc.
This is an excellent viewing experience, the picture quality is one of the best I have seen for a 4k ultra HD TV.
This 55" 4K HDR Samsung TV provides an outstanding picture performance for an extremely attractive price.
The MU7000 features UHD upscaling software, which does an impressive job of taking a non-4K signal, and making the image shaper, cleaner and overall more satisfying.

I was worried that I would need an additional sound bar but the sound is great. Very pleased with purchase
Fantastic tv. Amazing picture quality and sound.
The Harmon/Kardon sound is very- very good, it will even test the acoustics of the room to give the best set up automatically
Harmon Kardon 2.2 channel speakers?! This is on another level for standard Telly speakers.
The sound satisfies Mrs C… that is a first, for our last TV I had to purchase a sound bar before it satisfied the obviously superior female ear.

Excellent TV, great picture and sound.
The digital optical connection on the TV allows me to use my sound bar, the TV speakers are OK.
Speakers are clear and loud. Easy to setup and use.
The TVs sound system will more than suffice for most people, it can get incredibly loud without distortion for a TV.
Great looking TV, great picture and good sound

LG 55SJ850V 55 inch Super UHD Premium 4K HDR Smart LED TV (2017 Model)

If you're into gaming as well this TV handles my PS4 PRO very well. This TV could definitely be hooked up to a computer and perform better than most if not all the competition.
Very sleek looking too. It has enough HDMI ports to connect all our gadgets.
Packed full of features, great connectivity options and very easy to configure.
Many great features , talks to my phone, tabet and can even stream my movies from my PC in the other room.
It also found my Wi Fi home network so I added the password, and that connected hassle free too.

With the one connect box this is the easiest system to setup.
TV mounted well to the mounting kit and all connections pass through the wall with just the power and the communication cable. This is such a great idea with the hub.
There were only 2 wires from the TV and they were hidden inside the R leg for seamless wiring. The Connect One Box made handling the wires even easier.
All connections are outsourced to an external 'One Connect box' that has 4 HDMI 2.0 inputs, each with 4K/60p and HDCP 2.2 support.
Interface is fast and responsive, the smart tv side works really well.
