Market Context

Pattern

Curved No

The LG SM8600 has an excellent design. The stand up is made of plastic and supports the TV well. However, the TV wobbles significantly if you nudge it. The dorsum of the TV is made of thin metal and has a balmy brushed texture. The TV is thin and won't stick out much if wall-mounted. Finally, the build quality is decent and we don't wait yous to have any issues with it.

The stand of the TV is plastic and resembles the LG SK8000. Although the stand up supports the Idiot box well, its neck has a lot of flex and the Tv wobbles significantly if nudged.

Footprint of the 55" TV stand: 33.ane" 10 ix.25".

Wall Mountain VESA 300x300

The back of the TV is plain with a balmy brushed texture. It's fabricated of a metal sheet that flexes easily if you gently push it inwards. The stand'southward neck has a removable cover and y'all can guide the cables through for cable direction.

Borders 0.45" (1.ii cm)

The borders are thin and made of metal. They expect adept and give the TV a premium experience.

Max Thickness 2.l" (six.4 cm)

The LG 55SM8600PUA is a relatively thin Goggle box. It's slightly thinner than the LG SK8000 but thicker than the LG SK9000. The Boob tube won't stick out too much if you wall-mount it.

The SM8600 has a decent build quality. It has a metal dorsum which has a little flex, and the stand allows more wobbling than the LG SK8000. However, the TV feels solid, and the border stop gives it a more than premium experience. You lot shouldn't take any issues with it.

Motion picture Quality

Native Dissimilarity one,176 : 1

Contrast with local dimming 1,182 : 1

Similar virtually IPS panel TVs, the SM8600 has a mediocre contrast ratio. Blacks announced closer to gray, and enabling the local dimming feature doesn't deepen blacks all that much. If you desire a TV with a much better contrast ratio, check out the TCL half-dozen Series 2018 or the Vizio P Series 2018.

Local Dimming Yes

Backlight Edge

The LG SM8600 has bad local dimming. It'south an border-lit Telly and has vertical local dimming zones which can cause issues with local dimming functioning. With LED Local Dimming set to 'Loftier,' in certain scenes, the TV reacts to effulgence changes in small areas of the screen by brightening/dimming entire vertical columns, which causes significant blooming and this is very distracting.

Setting LED Local Dimming to 'Medium' makes this issue a lot milder, although many people may still find this vertical blooming distracting. We recommend you to set the LED Local Dimming to 'Medium,' as seen in the video above.

The local dimming performance is very similar to the LG SK8000, but the SM8600 has a less aggressive operation when LED Local Dimming is set to 'Medium.'

The SDR peak brightness is disappointing. Information technology'southward slightly brighter than 2018's LG SK8000 and it'south suitable for dim or moderate-lit rooms.

Nosotros measured the peak brightness later scale, using 'ISF Expert (Dark Room)' Picture Style, with Backlight set to '100,' LED Local Dimming set up to 'Medium,' and Color Temperature set to 'Warm2.'

If yous don't care near image accuracy, you tin can obtain higher brightness levels. We were able to accomplish 487 nits with the 10% window using the default settings of the 'Vivid' Picture Fashion and LED Local Dimming set to 'Medium.'

The HDR peak brightness is disappointing. Small-scale highlights get really vivid, but overall, information technology tin can't get bright plenty to bring out highlights in HDR.

Nosotros measured the peak effulgence before scale, using 'Cinema' Motion picture Mode, with BackLight set to '100,' LED Local Dimming set to 'Medium,' and Color Temperature set to 'Warm2.'

If you don't care about image accuracy, yous can obtain higher effulgence levels. Nosotros were able to achieve 455 nits with the 10% window using default settings of the 'Vivid' Moving picture Mode.

Gamma Shift 28°

Despite having an IPS panel, which are known to have wide viewing angles, this TV only has okay viewing angles. Overall, the image remains fairly accurate when viewing from the side, but you offset losing some image accuracy at large viewing angles. This TV's successor, the LG NANO85 2020, has wider viewing angles.

Native Std. Dev. 2.050%

Std. Dev. w/ L.D. four.766%

The LG 55SM8600PUA has disappointing black uniformity, which is expected on IPS panel TVs. When local dimming is disabled, there's visible backlight bleed and blooming. With local dimming enabled and set to 'Medium,' the edges are a little darker but a significant expanse around the heart cross remains lit. The overall black uniformity performance is meliorate than the LG SK8000.

Screen Terminate Semi-gloss

Total Reflections 3.0%

Indirect Reflections 0.five%

Calculated Directly Reflections 2.4%

The reflection handling is splendid. The semi-gloss filter diffuses reflections, reducing their overall intensity so you won't exist distracted if your room has a few lights. If you adopt a newer Television receiver with even better reflection handling, cheque out the LG NANO81.

Gamma Setting ii.2

The LG SM8600 has mediocre accuracy with our pre-calibration settings. There are meaning inaccuracies that well-nigh people might observe both in the shades of gray and in the colors. The gamma doesn't track the target very well and thus most scenes are a bit brighter than they should be. The color temperature is significantly warmer than the target of 6500K, and the image has a red-yellowish tint.

Its successor, the LG NANO85 2020, has much better out-of-the-box color accuracy.

Afterward calibration, the SM8600 has splendid color accuracy. Most colors are very accurate, but the gamma doesn't follow the target well and dark scenes aren't as nighttime equally they should be.

The Television set features an automobile-scale feature which still requires the use of colorimeter.

You can run into our recommended settings here.

The LG 55SM8600PUA upscales 480p content, like DVDs, well without any obvious upscaling artifacts.

720p content, like cablevision Idiot box, is upscaled well, with no foreign artifacts.

Blu-rays and 1080p content look almost as good as native 4k content.

Native 4k content displays perfectly.

This is a 4k TV that can't display an 8k signal.

Rec 2020 xy 63.26%

Rec 2020 uv 70.41%

The SM8600 has a good wide color gamut. The EOTF is slightly over-brightening some very night scenes, but, in general, information technology follows the input stimulus well until it starts a precipitous gyre off towards the Idiot box'southward pinnacle brightness. The 'Game' fashion EOTF is almost identical equally you tin can see here.

If you find HDR too dim, check out our recommendations hither. With these settings, the SM8600 is a little brighter in HDR, as shown in this EOTF.

We also measured the tone mapping at 50% stimulus to check if the TV is prioritizing brightness over color accurateness. As we tin see from the results for the Rec. 2020 color space, and the results for the DCI-P3 color space, the tone mapping is much better at the 50% stimulus. This means that the TV has better color accuracy at lower brightness levels since the tone mapping is better.

The LG SM8600 has excellent gradient handling, similar to the LG SK8000. In most real-life content gradients are excellent but there are cases, like the pattern in the photo higher up, where banding is visible throughout nigh of the colors and shades. Our test is not run on the pic shown above. It's designed to measure gradient performance in situations that resemble more real-life content, and this is depicted in the results.

If you wish to smooth out gradients, you tin can enable the Smooth Gradation setting. This setting seems to work well with real-life content but doesn't practice annihilation in our examination blueprint photo. Enabling Polish Gradation might crusade some loss of fine item.

There's some very pocket-sized temporary prototype retention, but it disappears quickly and shouldn't bother most people.

Permanent Burn-In Risk No

While some IPS panels can have some temporary image retention, this doesn't seem to be permanent equally the IPS panel in our long-term test appears to be immune.

Motility

eighty% Response Time 4.2 ms

100% Response Fourth dimension 12.4 ms

The LG 55SM8600PUA has a great response time. There'southward a fleck of overshoot and the overall performance is very similar to the LG SK8000.

Flicker-Free No

PWM Dimming Frequency 240 Hz

The LG 55SM8600PUA uses Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) to dim its backlight. The flicker frequency tin can be as high as 240Hz, such as some of the Television's picture modes that are primarily aimed at movies ('Cinema,' 'ISF Expert (Dark Room),' etc). However, when TruMotion is enabled, the flicker switches to 120Hz in these modes.

The other picture modes similar 'Game,' 'Standard,' 'Sports,' etc ever have 120Hz flicker.

Optional BFI Yes

Min Flicker for sixty fps 60 Hz

sixty Hz for threescore fps Yes

120 Hz for 120 fps Yes

Min Flicker for 60 fps in Game Mode 60 Hz

The LG SM8600 has an optional blackness frame insertion feature that can lower the flicker frequency and help reduce motion mistiness.

To activate this option, enable TruMotion to 'User' and this immediately makes the flicker frequency 120Hz no matter the moving picture fashion. If you set Motility Pro to 'On' and then the flicker frequency becomes 60Hz.

Unfortunately, this decreases the picture brightness, and 60Hz flicker can be bothersome to some people.

When you are in 'Game' mode the flicker frequency is always 120Hz. To lower the frequency to 60Hz, you must follow the same procedure as before.

Motion Interpolation (thirty fps) Yes

Motion Interpolation (lx fps) Aye

The LG SM8600 can interpolate lower frame-rate content upward to 120fps. The Tv set stops interpolating in very fast scenes to avoid creating too many artifacts. When this happens, the sudden change in frame charge per unit can exist noticeable as a sudden "wiggle" in movement. To enable motion interpolation, enable the TruMotion setting.

Come across here for the settings that control the SM8600's motility interpolation feature.

Note that just enabling TruMotion changes the backlight flicker to 120Hz.

Frame Hold Time @ 24 fps 29.3 ms

Frame Concord Time @ sixty fps 4.3 ms

The SM8600 has a fast response time, which makes the image appear to stutter in movies or other lower frame charge per unit content. If stutter bothers you, movement interpolation or the optional black frame insertion feature tin help.

Judder-Free 24p Yes

Judder-Free 24p via 60p Yes

Judder-Complimentary 24p via 60i No

Judder-Free 24p via Native Apps Yes

The SM8600 is able to remove judder from most sources. Unfortunately, during our test, the Television set was unable to completely remove 24p judder from 60i signals. To remove judder, the Real Movie house option must be enabled in the Picture Option Settings bill of fare.

Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) Aye

The SM8600 has a very low input lag which is great news for gamers. To get the lowest input lag you lot must set the TV in 'Game' fashion. To get low input lag and proper chroma 4:4:four just change the input icon to PC. The picture show mode does not matter.

The TV supports an Automobile Low Latency manner that LG calls 'Instant Game Response,' but information technology simply works with compatible devices like the Xbox One. When 'Instant Game Response' detects that yous're playing a game, it switches to 'Game' mode. Subsequently that, if yous switch to another picture mode, you lot're still getting low input lag and the only bachelor settings are the 'Game' way ones. This ways that all pic modes can take the same low input lag when 'Instant Game Response' is activated.

See our recommended gaming settings here.

1080p @ 60 Hz @ 4:4:four Yeah

1080p @ 120 Hz Yes (native back up)

55" 65" 75" 86"

The LG SM9000 is amend than the LG SM8600. The SM9000 is brighter and has a better (but nevertheless disappointing) local dimming feature. The SM9000 is a scrap more hereafter-proof, every bit information technology supports HDMI 2.i, eARC, and HDMI Forum'southward new variable refresh rate applied science.

55" 65" 75"

The LG SM8600 and the LG NANO81 are similarly performing TVs and accept a similar design with a middle-mounted stand up. The SM8600 has a 120Hz refresh rate, a much quicker response time, a BFI feature, and information technology removes judder from any source except 24p via 60i. Nevertheless, the NANO81 has wider viewing angles, amend reflection treatment, and it has a lower input lag.

49" 55" 65" 75"

The LG NANO85 2020 is a flake better TV than its predecessor, the LG SM8600. The NANO85 2020 gets much brighter, the viewing angles are improved, information technology has better out-of-the-box colour accuracy, it's able to remove judder from any source, and the built-in speakers are amend. On the other hand, the SM8600 has a better overall style due to its sleeker, center-mounted stand.

43" fifty" 55" 58" 65" 75"

The Samsung RU7100 and the LG SM8600 are both good TVs. The LG is a better selection for sports due to its better motion handling and its IPS screen that allows for much wider viewing angles. On the other mitt, since the Samsung uses a VA panel, information technology has much better contrast and black uniformity, so it's meliorate for watching movies in a dark room. The Samsung likewise has much better color accuracy out-of-the-box, just the LG is better for HDR content due to its wider color gamut and higher peak effulgence. If y'all use your Idiot box in a very brilliant room, the LG as well does a better chore at handling reflections.

43" 49" 55" 65" 75" 85"

For a budget Idiot box, the LG SM8600 performs slightly better than the Sony X800H. Motion looks a lot clearer on the LG thanks to its improve response fourth dimension and black frame insertion feature to help reduce movement blur. Its native refresh rate is higher at 120Hz and it's too able to remove judder from lower frame rate sources, such equally native apps. The Sony has significantly better viewing angles, black uniformity, and it can go much brighter with both SDR and HDR content.

55" 65"

The LG SK9000 is amend than the LG SM8600. The SK9000 can evangelize a better dark room performance as information technology has more constructive local dimming. The SK9000 is also more suitable for a bright room as it tin can get brighter in SDR and tin can deliver ameliorate HDR highlights thanks to its better HDR summit brightness. The SM8600, on the other hand, has a faster response fourth dimension and a lower input lag that is nifty for playing video games.

43" 49" 50" 55" 65"

The LG SM8600 is a fiddling amend than the LG UM7300. The SM8600 has a faster response time, which is great for sports, and a wide colour gamut, which is great for HDR. The UM7300 can get brighter, which is swell for watching TV in a brighter room, and its Automatic Effulgence Limiter doesn't change the brightness according to the scene.

65"

The LG SM9500 is amend than the LG SM8600. The SM9500 tin can get much brighter in SDR, tin can easily fight glare in a vivid room, and is more accurate earlier calibration. Also, the SM9500 has wider viewing angles can get brighter in HDR, and has full-array local dimming. The SM8600, on the other hand, has meliorate gray uniformity, which is important to sports fans.

49" 55" 65" 75" 82"

The Samsung NU8000 and the LG SM8600 use different panel technologies, each with their strengths and weaknesses. The NU8000 has a much better dark room functioning, provided yous sit down direct in front end of it. The LG SM8600 is a ameliorate choice for a room with a wide seating arrangement. Apart from these differences, the NU8000 is brighter but has worse reflection treatment.

43" l" 55" 58" 65" 75" 82" 85"

The Samsung Q60/Q60T QLED and the LG SM8600 have very similar overall performance. The Samsung has a significantly better contrast ratio and black uniformity due to its VA panel, but the LG'southward IPS panel has much better viewing angles, and information technology has ameliorate reflection handling for vivid rooms. Response fourth dimension is much faster on the LG, and information technology can remove judder from low frame rate content; however, the Samsung has better uniformity and gets a lot brighter.

49" 55" 65" 75" 82"

The Samsung RU8000 and the LG SM8600 use different technologies, each with its strengths and weaknesses. The Samsung is better-suited for viewing in a night room thank you to the high contrast of its VA panel. The LG is better suited for a brighter room, and the wide viewing angles of its IPS console are ameliorate for side seating. Beyond these differences, the Samsung is brighter but has worse reflection handling.

49" 55" 65" 75" 82" 85"
