LG’s NU8E sits in the brand’s mid range 4K smart TV line-up, aimed at people who want a bigger screen and sharper detail without stepping up to pricier OLED models. It competes with similarly specced 50 inch LED sets from Samsung and Hisense, focusing on 4K UHD resolution and HDR support for improved contrast and more realistic highlights in films and box sets.

Who is this 50 inch LG best suited to?

It makes sense for a living room where you stream a lot and want a clean, crisp picture. LG’s “Nano” detail enhancement is geared towards improving perceived sharpness and texture, so faces and fine patterns look less soft on a large panel. Smart TV features cover the usual catch up and streaming apps, and AI processing is there to help with upscaling, so HD channels can look more polished on a 4K screen.

  • 50 inch 4K UHD panel for a clear upgrade over Full HD
  • HDR support for brighter highlights and deeper looking scenes
  • Smart TV platform for streaming and catch up in one place
