The LG NANO75 2022, also known as the LG NanoCell 75 Series, is an entry-level 4k TV in LG's NanoCell Series, and it's the replacement for the LG NANO75 2021. It's a pretty basic TV available in a wide range of sizes, but most have very few additional features. It runs the same webOS smart interface as LG's higher-end models, which is fast and easy to use and has a great selection of streaming apps. It also comes with LG's popular Magic Remote, which makes it very easy to navigate the user interface, as you can just point the remote where you want it to click, similar to a Wii remote.
Our Verdict
The LG NANO75 is an alright TV. It's best-suited for watching sports or shows in a moderately lit room, as it can't overcome a lot of glare. It looks bad in a dark room, so it's not a good choice for watching movies in the dark, as it has low contrast, poor black uniformity, and no local dimming feature. It's okay for casual gaming, thanks to its exceptionally low input lag and a decent response time, but it lacks any advanced gaming features. Sadly, HDR adds nothing since it can't display a wide color gamut, and it's not bright enough for HDR highlights to stand out in any way.
- Image remains consistent at a moderate viewing angle.
- Great selection of streaming apps.
- Lower resolution content like DVDs or cable TV is upscaled well.
- Low contrast results in grayish blacks in a dark room.
- Sub-par peak brightness.
The LG NANO75 is a good TV for watching shows in a moderately lit room. It has a decent viewing angle, which is good if you have a wide seating arrangement or like to move around with the TV on. The built-in webOS smart platform has a great selection of streaming apps, so you're sure to find your favorite shows. Unfortunately, it has low peak brightness, so despite its great reflection handling, it's not bright enough to overcome glare in a bright room.

The LG NANO75 is a decent TV for watching sports in a bright room. It has a wide viewing angle, which is great for a wide seating arrangement, as everyone sees the same thing. It has a decent response time, so fast motion is fairly clear, and there's just a bit of distracting dirty screen effect. Unfortunately, although it has great reflection handling, it can't get very bright, so glare is an issue in a bright room.

The LG NANO75 is an okay TV for casual gaming. It has exceptionally low input lag, ensuring a responsive gaming experience, and it has a decent response time, so there's just a bit of blur behind fast-moving objects. Unfortunately, only the 86" version supports FreeSync variable refresh rate technology, whereas the other sizes are limited to a fixed 60Hz refresh rate. It looks best in moderately lit rooms, as it can't get bright enough to overcome glare, and it looks bad in a dark room due to its low contrast ratio.
- Exceptionally low input lag.
- Low contrast results in grayish blacks in a dark room.
- Limited gaming features, no variable refresh rate support.
The LG NANO75 delivers a poor HDR movie-watching experience. It doesn't look good in a dark room due to its low contrast ratio, poor black uniformity, and lack of a local dimming feature. It can't display a wide color gamut, and HDR adds very little overall as it can't get bright enough to bring out bright highlights.

It has low input lag for a responsive gaming experience, as well as a decent response time with just a bit of motion blur.

- Can't display a wide color gamut.
The LG NANO75 is a good TV for use as a PC monitor. It has a decent viewing angle, so the sides of the screen don't fade if you're sitting close to it. It displays chroma 4:4:4 properly from a PC with a 4k signal, so text is crisp and easy to read. It also has exceptionally low input lag, ensuring a smooth desktop experience. Unfortunately, it can't get very bright, so even though it has great reflection handling, it can't overcome glare in a bright room.

We buy and test dozens of TVs yearly, taking an objective, data-driven approach to deliver results you can trust. Our testing process is complex, with hundreds of individual tests that take over a week to complete. Most of our tests use specially designed test patterns that mimic real content, but we also use the same sources you have at home to ensure our results match the real-world experience. We use two main tools for our testing: a Colorimetry Research CR-100 colorimeter and a CR-250 spectroradiometer.
