LG UQ9000

The LG UQ9000 is a mediocre TV overall. It's best suited for watching shows or movies in a moderately lit room, as it can't handle a lot of glare due to its limited peak brightness. It's sub-par for use in a dark room, as it has a low contrast ratio, mediocre black uniformity, and no local dimming feature. It has low input lag for a responsive gaming experience, but there are no advanced gaming features like variable refresh rate (VRR) support. Finally, it's good overall for use as a PC monitor, and it can display chroma 4:4:4 properly, but it has some distracting uniformity issues.
