today we're taking a look at this huge 75-inch Q LED mini LED TV from LG and this is the unboxing
and first impressions video and then in a few weeks I'll be doing a more in-depth review
so full disclosure before we get started this video is sponsored by LG I'm not being paid but
they've sent me the TV for free to Showcase to you guys but that of course does not change my
opinions so we'll get straight into the unboxing it's nice and easy to unbox and pretty much the
same as any TV now you open up the box lift the box over the TV and then you can just lay it
down and put the stand on no I didn't read the instructions and I put this TV on its back to
start with but this TV stand is secured to the Visa mounts on the rear of the TV so I then had
to raise it back up and place it on the front I always recommend leaving the packaging over the
screen for protection when setting it up and I use the polystyrene in the TVs box to help you
safely install the stand now once the stand's attached you can put it back upright place it
where it needs to go and then plug it in the exact model number of this TV is the LG 75QNED866QA and
of course it's a 75 inch TV now all TVs are looking pretty similar these days but you can
see we've got nice slim bezels all round although the bottom bezel is a bit thicker than the top
and the sides now this TV is 1.67 meters long 963 centimeters tall and 44.9 millimeters thick we've
also got a center stand which is great news for those of you that are going to be placing it on
a TV unit so you don't have to worry about the length of the TV for those of you that are going
to be mounting this on the wall we've got 400 by 400 Visa mounts and the TV weighs 39.3 kilograms
now of course it's a 4K TV so the resolution is 3840 by 2160 we've got mini LED quantum dot Nano
cell color technology and it's also HDMI 2.1 so you can play your games at 4K 120 hertz now this
is a 2022 model and it's part of LG's mid-range but it's packed with plenty of technology to be
able to deliver a stunning picture now the quantum dot Nano cell technology is essentially a filter
the backlight passes through the nanocell and the quantum dot materials to deliver improved
colors with better accuracy we've got a mini LED backlight with Precision dimming and this is
essentially smaller LEDs to give better control of the backlight and this is going to deliver
deeper blacks with better contrast we've also got Precision dimming and this uses unique dimming
zones which again helps with deeper blacks a more Vivid picture and higher contrast it's powered by
the alpha 7 Gen 5 AI processor and this uses a deep learning algorithm to recognize the
content and optimize it on the fly so it basically enhances the picture by making adjustments such as
brightness picture detail and volume dependent on the content you're watching we've got HDR 10
Dolby vision hlg and it supports HDMI 2.1 for 120hz gaming on consoles we've also got support
for variable refresh rates for the gamers we've also got hdig support as well as GeForce now in
Google stadia built into the TV so you can just pair a wireless controller and play your games
directly on the TV now that we being said Google stadia have actually announced their closing down
so it's going to be GeForce now only we get HDMI variable refresh rate along with AMD freesync but
there's no Nvidia g-sync and when it comes to connections we've got four HDMI ports in total
and thankfully all of them are on the side of the TV now two of these ports are HDMI 2.1 whereas
the other two are regular hdmis and the HDMI 3 is for ERC now we also get a common interface slot on
the side the optical out and a USB port as well as another USB port on the rear now we've also got an
RF connection on the rear along with an ethernet port and all of the rear connections are facing
downwards so that the TV can still be tight to the wall if you've got them wall mounted now we've got
a downward firing speaker system and this consists of a 20 watt sub and then two 10 watt speakers for
those of you that aren't going to be using a sound bar so that's enough of the specs let's turn the
TV on and see exactly what we get when there's no signal we get the r to pair sharing on the screen
and then if we press the home button we see the web OS main display now we get recommendations
for lots of different media along with all of the installed apps in a line underneath below
that we get the home dashboard we've got mobile connection AirPlay and more and then below that
we've got plenty more recommendations now the TV runs web OS nice and smoothly and as you can see
I can go through all of the sections with no lag or stutter now the TV uses the Magic Remote which
I'm sure most of you have probably seen by now and I'm a huge fan of the remote as it's got plenty of
shortcuts it supports voice searching as well as the air mouse another thing we can do with this
is make our own shortcuts by using the numbers on the remote so if I open up YouTube and hold
down one that then sets one for my quick start for YouTube open Netflix okay I'll go to Netflix app
open YouTube go into YouTube
so let's start with some 4K HDR content and straight away you can see on this video we've
got nice rich vibrant colors and a great level of detail now the picture profile is currently
on standard and overall it's just an incredible looking picture we've got bright vibrant colors
along with nice deep blacks in great Shadows we get the usual picture profiles that we'd expect
from LG so that's Vivid for those of you that want things very bright and saturated we've got
the standard profile we've got Cinema home game Optimizer for when you're playing games and then
finally the filmmaker mode now the filmmaker mode is a popular choice for films and it basically
turns off the motion smoothing while preserving original aspect ratios colors and frame rates
so this is basically to deliver the director's original version the way they intended it to be
next we'll take a look at LG's 2020 OLED the black video this video is of course for showcasing the
performance of a nola display and this is not an OLED TV but it lets us look at how well the mini
LED and press decision dimming or working now as you can see here is fantastic we've got some
great contrast between the color and the Darkness and we don't have any light spilling through into
the dark areas of the display we have nice deep blacks and even when next to a bright color it's
still the same so overall it's great performance from the mini LED and the Precision dimming if
we head over to a trailer you can see just how incredible this looks so it's going to be great
for watching films this is also a good place to show you the filmmaker mode you can see that when
we compare them side by side it really does make a huge difference to both the color as well as the
processing now directors don't want everything to be super smooth for the films and they want
that more cinematic look and that's exactly what filmmaker delivers now some people of course are
just going to prefer to watch it with the motion smoothing but it is great to have the choice if
we head over to Netflix and turn on some 1080p content you can see that it still looks pretty
good and it's perfectly enjoyable to watch the TV is doing a great job at upscaling that 1080p
footage and even on this huge 75 inch display we don't face issues with pixelation now if we also
turn on subtitles again you can see it performs well with the dimming and you don't have any white
from the subtitles bleeding out into the space around it for those concerned about the lower
resolution content we'll just take a look through it now so this video here is 720p footage and you
can see it's less detailed compared to the 1080P or especially 4K but it's still well upscaled if
we drop to 480p you can see there's a huge loss of detail and as expected things start to become
a lot more pixelated and less detailed it is still watchable though so if you are concerned with a
75 inch TV in Old resolutions be rest assured that while it's not going to look brilliant the
upscaling does make it acceptable to watch next we're going to put on some more movie trailers
and I was pleasantly surprised with the sound quality coming from the TV while most people are
probably going to be using a soundbar these days this TV gives us a nice warm sound with enough
bass to make it enjoyable to watch we've also got plenty of preset sound modes to choose from
as well so we're just going to go through them now so you can hear the difference between them
four Shooters
it was beautiful all right I got emotional I believe all right

now finally if we take a look at the gaming gaming as you would expect is incredible we get nice rich
vibrant colors along with deep blacks and great Shadows I've tried this over multiple different
genres and each game it's just incredible to play in 4k 120 frames a second by default the TV
switches to game Optimizer for the picture and sound we've got plenty of options to configure
now we've got presets for game modes so we've got standard first person shooter RPG RTS and
sports if you're playing at night we've also got the dark room modes that actually dim the
display as well as a multi-view mode if you want another source on the display at the same time
as the game now you can select a side by side or picture in picture and you can use the apps
that you've installed on your TV such as AirPlay or YouTube and you can also have live TV playing
under the game Optimizer settings we've also got the ability to adjust the black and white
stabilizers you can adjust the contrast Black Level sharpness as well as color depth we can
reduce the blue light for those of you that are concerned about visual fatigue we can
also enable vrr AMD freesync and even customize the menu's colors now overall this is a great
TV for the gamers and it's thoroughly enjoyable to play for those of you that don't want to be
using the game Optimizer you can still use the normal picture profiles when gaming but
because of all the processing you will get a little bit more latency but as you can
see here I'm playing in the standard picture profile and it does still play great foreign
we can also access G-Force now or Google stadia within the TV itself you simply pair a Bluetooth
controller or plug one in then you can enjoy your cloud-based streaming straight from the
TV now I'm not a user of these Services personally so I only have a free GeForce
now account but I've tested it for this video and it does appear to work well just personally
I prefer to play Things directly as I don't like the latency of cloud-based services so overall
my first impressions of this TV are great we get a great picture with some good sound and
then plenty of customization we also have a nice bright display so this means if you've got the TV
in your front room you've got the windows open and plenty of light coming through on a sunny
day then it's not going to be an issue with all the important ports being side mounted it's also
great they're all there and easy to access even if you've mounted it to a wall now as I said this
is the unboxing and first impressions video so basically just going through what the tv offers
but of course I've placed a link down in the description below for those of you that want
to take a look at the detailed specs or even purchase one now of course if there's anything
I've missed or you've got specific requests for the full in-depth review then just leave them in
the comments and I'll get back to you as soon as I can but thanks for watching the video if you liked
it smash a thumbs up if you didn't hit the thumbs down twice and I'll see you guys in the next one
