LG 55UF680V review
Review: September 2015 | ||
![]() Rating: In a nutshell: With the 55UF680V, LG has cut the price of owning a 55-inch UHD TV to the bare minimum. The design and styling of this TV are nice, the Smart TV functionality is good, and the price is almost unbelievable. But picture quality and audio aren't as good as we'd ideally like. |
Summary
The UF680V is two steps down from the UF850V, and is probably the lowest we would consider going in LG's UHD (4K) TV line-up for 2015.
The UF680V has a different design, with a narrow metal bezel around the screen and a two-legged plastic stand. The handy "magic" remote isn't included with the UF680V, and we understand that the processor is slower, so the Smart TV functions may be more sluggish to respond.
There's very little difference between this model and the UF770V, and the price is almost the same too.

I brought the LG 55UF680V TV in 2016, it was manifactured in late 2016
but I can't find out if it has HDR or not. Some people say yes it
does, some say the LG HDMI ULTRA HD Deep Colour either is a version of
HDR or it is what LG calls HDR.
