Launched in the year 2022, the 75QNED99UQA is a 75" 8K TV from LG. It comes with a True 10-bit IPS panel.
It can display a maximum resolution of 7680 x 4320 with a refresh rate of 120 Hz and pixel density of 118 ppi.
Picture Quality
After screen size and resolution, the next important feature to look for in a display is its Color Reproduction, which is defined by its color gamut specification.
This TV doesn't come with a color gamut specification, so we have to make an assumption based on its panel type.
Considering the TV features a 75 inch screen, it won't come with a cheap panel, so here we can assume its equivalent sRGB coverage to be 90-100% or above. Undoubtedly The color quality on this TV should be Lifelike! Meaning it is capable of producing accurate colors.
Understanding the Color Gamut Specification
Color gamut spec of a display is the measurement of the range of colors that the TV can display.
A panel with poor color reproduction will produce washed out colors that will spoil your immersive experience.
It is specified in different units - sRGB,sRGB (standard RGB), NTSC 1953, DCI P3 to name a few.
But you don't need to worry about that, below is a chart that you can use to choose a TV with good color accuracy.
Other than color accuracy, the static contrast ratio of a TV has equally important role in picture quality.
What is Static Contrast ratio ?
There are two types of contrast specifications for a TV. Static and Dynamic. We are interested in static contrast ratio. Dynamic doesn't matter much.
This specification defines the intensity of black levels. That is, a TV with static contrast ratio < 1000:1 will produce black images something like this:
Apart from that, such TVs are likely to suffer from backlight bleeds that will affect your experience — as shown below.
The image is an example of another display, it is not this oneAlso, a TV with high constrast ratio lets you to see more details. So, resolution and static contrast ratio go hand in hand.
This TV is rated with a static contrast ratio of 10000:1., well enough to achieve deep blacks and eye-catching visuals. The panel comes with local dimming which is a plus.
Dolby Vision, HDR10 Pro, HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma) and Dolby Vision IQ are also supported on this TV.
Coming to brightness, the peak luminance the TV can produce is 250 nits, which is powered by Mini LED backlight.
Gaming Performance
If you aren't interested in gaming, you can ignore these specs. But if you are also planning to use the TV for playing games or use it as a PC monitor, you should take a TV with the lowest input lag and response time.
Sadly, LG did not specify the input lag on this unit. But since this is not a cheap TV from LG, we can expect an input lag of less than 20ms.
What is Input lag ?
This lag is the amount of time at which your inputs changes the content of your display. Though, this won't matter much if you aren't into competitive/FPS games like call of duty.
Although for better experience, get a TV that has an input lag and response time of < 20ms.
