LG QNED85 Mini LED Quantum Dot 2022 A7 Gen 5 | Unboxing and Review

Published 2022-07-14
The LG QNED85 has impressed me a lot for being a mid range offering with far less zones than the step up QNED90. Do note that the QNED90s currently available with "Gen4" processors are 2021 models. The 2022 variants are not yet out, and will have "Gen5".

    Hi, would there be a calibration/settings video for this TV in the near future?
  • @highdefnews175
    Another great review my friend. You’re really killing it with the new format. I especially appreciate the detailed OOTB measurements. Those are crucial for a lot of folks.
  • @chashint1
    Thanks for the video. I truly appreciate your calm demeanor and rational subjective opinions to go along with the objective measurements. Your presentation is stellar, and your work is appreciated.
  • @TheRokaphella
    Great video Classy! Very informative while showing what you were talking about with gameplay and video. Well done man! Will definitely be looking for the 2022 qned99 drop 86 inch.
  • @iron_fist_152
    Good info on qned85.....looking forward to your qned90 review when the tv release 👍
  • Great review of the QNED85. Lots of relevant technical info with examples of real results with the TV.
  • @Kaohteeko
    Very good review. Amazing content. Very underrated channel. I see you booming in subscribers very soon!
  • @dierianrigg
    Loving these reviews, thanks a lot! It'd be great to have a side by side comparison of this tv to an oled or a direct lcd competitor. Seeing some more games would be also nice
  • @kidvid9362
    Classy, recommendations for bias/media lighting kits? Your content is fantastic, please keep it up!
  • @Mlock76
    Thanks for the awesome video! I just ordered the 86 inch QNED85 after doing a bunch of research. It's going to replace my current set which is the Sony 75X900H. Have you uploaded the settings video already? Is it a members only?
  • @nickkalf7667
    I follow your reviews because you really know your stuff. I bought the European model and I'm very happy. Picture quality, deep black and very bright picture. I'm looking forward to your settings.Greetings from Greece
  • @kraken9883
    I'm very impressed with this tv. Do you think its worth waiting for the qned90 v2022 to come out or just buy the qned85? Thank you for the wonderful content.
  • @0XiDiZE
    Just ordered mine! Looking forward to the setup vid, Classy!
  • @Malized1
    Awesome Video! I can't understand why LG can't make the Colors right on this TV. Thank you for making a separate Setting Video. When can we expect it?
  • @chefjefe68
    I recently picked up a 65" QNED 85. I am very pleased with how this TV performs, and now the prices are around $1200.
  • Nice to see Classy LG's QNED tv's getting some mention and not constant hate. Great review. That being said. LG's QNED line dont get alot of love and I understand that because they do have short comings no doubt but I believe LG is getting better with the line and will continue to get better because I believe they know there is still interest in LED especially mini LED. If they are including QD's in their QNED line I believe its only a matter of time before they include it in their OLED line. Maybe 2023? That being said. Great review.
  • @36dot7
    Hi Classy! How is the motion/pixel response in gaming compared to oled? Is there a large difference? Eyeballing the 2022 qned91 lineup, planning on playin Diablo 4 a lot with the static hud on the bottom+minimap. Thanks!
  • @capnsnaxx
    Great review. It's funny how hard it is to find a review on this tv. It seems like a good value to me. The biggest concerns in a tv for me are motion and viewing angles. Sounds like this tv has that in the bag.
