LG QNED80

The LG QNED80 is decent for most uses. It's good for watching shows and sports in most well-lit rooms with wide seating arrangements because it has decent reflection handling and a wide viewing angle. It's also decent for gaming thanks to its HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, VRR support, and low input lag for a responsive feel. Sadly, it's mediocre for watching movies in dark rooms because blacks look gray in the dark and the local dimming feature is terrible as it causes a ton of blooming.
