Broke 2 weeks after I got it. Requires 7 to 10 business days to fix plus appointment. Couple weeks later it gets fixed. A week later it breaks again, requiring another 7 to 10 business days to fix.
Idk? I’ve had the tv for about 3 months and only used it for a few weeks. I’m still waiting for second repair. Two screens went out back to back and now I’m on my third.

Purchased the tv (42 inch) around 8/01 and around 9/14 it breaks. They Need 7 to 10 business days for the part plus appointment. It finally gets fixed on 10/2.
It is now one week later on 10/8 and it breaks again and again needs 7 to 10 business days for part plus appointment which I’m guessing is going to take another half month total to fix.
Am I enjoying my tv? It’s been broken most of the time. Am I confident it’s going to be fixed? I’m on my third screen and I’ve only had it for a couple months. Would I recommend? Not really. This is my first LG. I never had issues with my cheap non LG tv, that thing lasted a decade.

Will never buy another LG product. Let me count the ways …. Known issues are never fixed. 1.) blank screens frequently requiring unplugging and counting to 60. 2.) Ethernet doesn’t work reliably . Search either of these on google. . Common problem without actual answers in the updates. 3.) I know I didn’t contact support .. but seriously they’re known issues that they haven’t fixed yet. So what would support offer ? As well why should support need to be involved to turn on the device and begin using . It seriously should be ZERO hassle outside of pressing the power button .

The TV itself is great, however after owning this for almost 1 year these are the things that drive me nuts.
1) The Remote is very dumb poorly engineered or thought out. Everytime i click (Enter or OK) on something it moves the cursor moves all over the entire screen.
2) The most recent update today's date is 9/20/2026 now put adds up on the tv and disrupts watching tv. I cant opt out of the adds. These adds are forced by this company LG. This was my first LG & will definitely be my LG. Between all the adds on everything like youtube or FB etc, we now have browser adds. When I start up the tv, when i start up PS5, Cable box Computer (I use the tv for a computer monitor also) there are forced adds.
3) After the latest update, the HDMI ports stopped saving the ports. For example PS5 or computer etc. I have to designate the input every single time i wanna use it. It doesnt remember the ports anymore, have you ever had to edit the input? What a backwards pain in the rear. It must be a joke who ever designed this set up and controller.
These 3 things are serious for me, "adds" i cant stand, im sure like most people and the button on the center of the controller the "Enter or OK button" it completely out of control. Do people actually test these things before making them? And whats up with LG forcing us into tracking all the movement you do on the TV? Why should I be forced to agree to these terms or I cant use the TV that I purchased? Pervert weirdos
On the better side of things with the Television it has amazing color and the refresh rate is great for gaming and movies.

After 6 weeks, the unit had massive dead lines. Only lasted 6 weeks. The menu is extremely cluttered and confusing. Switching inputs takes too many clicks and the bulk of the main menu is ads. Does not feel or work like a premium tv.

Brilliant colors in picture screen. Great contrasts with blacks being truly black. Pixel uniformity across the screen. Sound system does not need sound bar. Brightness makes picture pop. Extremely pleased with television. Easy setup to use.
