The OLED83G2PUA is a 84 inch 4K TV from LG. It was launched in 2022. It features a True 10-bit OLED evo panel. The maximum resolution it can achieve is 3840 x 2160 with a refresh rate of 120 Hz and a pixel density of 52 ppi.
Picture Quality
After screen size and resolution, the next most important spec to look for in a display is its Color Reproduction (defined by its color gamut specification).
This TV doesn't come with a color gamut specification, but don't worry, we have other means to guess that.
Since the TV features an OLED panel, there is no need to worry about color accuracy. OLED panels ALWAYS come with over 100% sRGB coverage.
Understanding the Color Gamut Specification
Color gamut specification of a display is a measure of the range of colors that the TV can produce.
Meaning, this specification tells the ability of a TV to produce accurate colors. A TV with low color gamut coverage will miss out on some colors (such as deep red), thus producing a "washed out" picture.
It is specified in different units - sRGB,sRGB (standard RGB), NTSC, DCI P3 to name a few.
But don't worry, below is a chart that will help you choosing a TV with good color accuracy.
After color gamut, next in the list that will impact your experience is Static Contrast.
What is Static Contrast ratio ?
There are 2 types of contrast specifications for a TV. Static and Dynamic. We are interested in static contrast ratio as dynamic doesn't matter much.
This specification defines the intensity of black levels. That is, a TV with SC ratio < 1000:1 will produce black images something like this:
Note that, such TVs may suffer from backlight bleeds that will impact your experience — as shown below.
The image is an example of another display, it is not this oneAlso, a TV with high constrast ratio enables you to see more details. So, resolution and static contrast ratio go hand in hand in a sense.
If given a choice, always prefer a FHD TV with high contrast ratio over a 4K TV with low contrast ratio.
This TV comes with a static contrast ratio of Infinity:1.. So no need to worry about this at all.
HDR is also supported on this TV in form of HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma), Dolby Vision, Dolby Vision IQ and HDR10 Pro.
Coming to brightness, it can go as bright as 250 nits.
Gaming Performance
If you are not into gaming, you can ignore these specifications. But if you are also going to use the TV for gaming or use it as a PC monitor, you should take a TV that features the lowest input lag and response time.
The input lag on this TV is 5 ms and its minimum response time is 1 ms. Gamers will love this TV.
What is Input Lag and Why it matters ?
This lag is the amount of time at which key-presses or mouse movements changes the content of the TV. For casual Non-FPS games, input lag doesn't matter much.
Although for better experience, get a TV that features an input lag and response time of less than 20ms.

Vertically, the TV measures 84 inches and horizontally 74.31 inches.
In terms of thickness, it is just 1.1 inches thick. It weighs around 40.91 kgs, another 5.99 kgs including stand. So plan your space accordingly.
