The LG QNED92A is an upper mid-range TV released in 2025 as part of LG's QNED evo lineup, which features Mini LED backlighting. The TV is LG's highest-tier offering in their 4k Mini LED lineup, sitting above the LG QNED85A. In Europe, it's known as the LG QNED93A, which is the same TV but with a center-mounted stand. It uses LG's α8 AI Processor gen2, which can automatically adjust picture settings based on the type of content you're watching. It ships with the 2025 version of LG's webOS smart interface, but as it's part of LG's Re:New program, it'll receive new versions of webOS for a few years after launch. We bought and tested the 65-inch model, but it's also available in 75- and 85-inch models.
Our Verdict
The LG QNED92A is a good TV for most uses. It looks good in a variety of room conditions, as it has deep blacks for home theater use but good peak brightness to handle glare in a bright room. It has a wide selection of features that make it suitable for most uses, including PC gaming, where its 144Hz refresh rate is nice for PC gaming especially. It also has good processing capabilities that make it a nice choice for binge-watching the latest shows or even your favorites from way back when. On the other hand, its motion handling isn't very good, especially at lower refresh rates, so sports and fast-action scenes are a bit blurry, and it's not as well-suited for console gaming.
Great SDR brightness helps it fight glare from indirect lighting.
Very good upscaling.
Effective local dimming for deep blacks in simple scenes.
Distracting direct reflections.
The LG QNED92A is a good TV for home theater use. It has great black levels thanks to its local dimming feature, but it's not perfect, and there's some noticeable haloing around bright highlights. It gets very bright in HDR, so bright highlights stand out well, and it has good processing capabilities. It has good motion handling, and it can remove judder from most sources. It's not perfect for enthusiasts, though, as it's not very accurate out of the box, and it doesn't support DTS audio formats.
Barely any banding in color gradients.
Effective local dimming for deep blacks in simple scenes.
Specular highlights are bright and stand out well in most content.
Removes judder from most sources.
Noticeable haloing around subtitles and highlights.
Doesn't support DTS audio formats commonly used on physical media.
The LG QNED92A is a good choice for a bright room, with some limitations. It has good peak brightness, so it can handle some glare in a well-lit room, but its direct reflection handling is poor so you should avoid placing it directly opposite an uncovered window or bright lights. On the positive side, ambient light has almost no impact on color saturation or black levels, so you get the same picture quality no matter how bright your room is.
Great SDR brightness helps it fight glare from indirect lighting.
Blacks stay deep, and colors stay vibrant in a bright room.
Distracting direct reflections.
The LG QNED92A is an okay TV for watching sports. It gets very bright, so it can handle a well-lit room, but it has poor direct reflection handling so you should avoid placing it opposite an exposed window or lights. It has good motion handling, with a decent response time, and there are very few transition artifacts in fast-moving content. It also has a narrow viewing angle, so it's not a good choice for a wide seating arrangement.

The LG QNED92A is a decent gaming TV. It has a few great gaming features, including HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, low input lag, and a high 144Hz refresh rate that's great for PC gaming. Motion is fairly clear at that refresh rate, but it's not as good for console gaming as motion looks considerably worse at 60Hz. It has decent picture quality in HDR, but there's a slight drop in peak brightness when you switch to the lowest-latency Game Optimizer mode.

HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, up to 4k @ 144Hz, and VRR support.
Very low input lag for a responsive feel.
Poor motion handling at 60Hz.
Slightly worse picture quality in Game Optimizer mode.
The LG QNED92A has good peak brightness. It's bright enough to overcome moderate amounts of glare in a well-lit room. In HDR, its high peak brightness brings out specular highlights well, but it struggles with brighter scenes in content mastered above 1,000 nits, where it struggles a bit more to keep up.

Specular highlights are bright and stand out well in most content.
The LG QNED92A has great black levels. Its local dimming feature delivers deep blacks in simple scenes, but there's more noticeable haloing spread out around bright highlights. It has just okay transitions, too, as the processing can't keep up with fast-moving bright areas.
Effective local dimming for deep blacks in simple scenes.
Noticeable haloing around subtitles and highlights.
The LG QNED92A has decent colors. It has decent color volume in both SDR and HDR, and most colors are bright and vibrant. It has just okay accuracy out of the box, though, although it's easy to calibrate in SDR.
Decent color volume in HDR and SDR.
Color accuracy in HDR is only okay and can't be fully calibrated.
The LG QNED92A has good motion handling when watching content. It removes judder from most sources, and there's no micro judder. It can't remove judder from 25p content sent via a 60p source, though, like a cable TV box or older streaming device. There's noticeable stutter in slow panning shots, but the motion interpolation feature does a great job reducing it. There's no micro judder, and most transitions are very clean, with few noticeable transitions artifacts.

The LG QNED92A has decent responsiveness in Game Optimizer mode. It supports a wide range of resolutions and refresh rates, up to 144Hz for PC gamers, and it has low input lag in all supported modes. This ensures that your actions on the controller are in sync with what you see on the screen. On the other hand, it has just okay motion handling overall, and most motion is a bit blurry. It's especially bad at 60Hz, so it's not a great choice for console gamers.
HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, up to 4k @ 144Hz, and VRR support.

Poor motion handling at 60Hz.
Note: We're in the process of improving our tests related to image processing, but this score should give you a general idea of how a TV performs overall with its image processing capabilities.
The LG QNED92A has very good processing and upscaling. It smooths out low-quality content well, but there's some loss of fine details when that feature is enabled. It also has good EOTF tracking, ensuring HDR content is displayed close to the content creator's intent. Finally, it has great gradient handling, with just a bit of banding in all shades.
Very good upscaling.

Popular TV Comparisons
The LG QNED92A is a pretty good TV overall, with good picture quality and a great selection of features, including HDMI 2.1 bandwidth and a fast refresh rate for gaming. It's a bit overpriced for the picture quality that it delivers, though, especially considering that LG's own OLED lineup starts at around the same price and delivers far better picture quality for most users. You can get much better performance for about the same price by going to other brands like the TCL QM8K or the Hisense U8QG.
For more options, check out our recommendations for the best TVs for bright rooms, the best TVs for gaming, and the best TVs.
The Samsung QN90F is a much better TV than the LG QNED92A. The Samsung gets a lot brighter in SDR, and coupled with its matte anti-reflective coating, it's simply a far better TV for bright room usage. Of course, this comes with a slight tradeoff as the matte coating also reduces the overall picture quality a bit in a bright room, but it still looks better than the LG. The Samsung also stands out in HDR, as it's significantly brighter and more vibrant, delivering a more lifelike HDR experience.
The TCL QM7K delivers slightly better picture quality than the LG QNED92A. The TCL has better direct reflection handling, so glare from lamps and uncovered windows is reduced a bit, making it less distracting. The TCL is also slightly bright, making it a better choice overall for a bright room. The TCL is also a better choice for a dark room, as its local dimming algorithms are a bit better, and there's less haloing around bright parts of the scene.
The LG B5 OLED and the LG QNED92A trade blows in a few different ways, and ultimately, the best one depends on where you're going to be using it. In a dark room, it's no contest; the B5 delivers a significantly better experience with deeper blacks with no haloing around bright highlights, no distracting zone transitions, and perfect uniformity. In a bright room, however, the QNED92A is the better choice as it gets significantly brighter, especially with very bright scenes like hockey.
There's no contest here: the TCL QM8K delivers a far better viewing experience than the LG QNED92A. The TCL is significantly brighter, delivering a more impactful, lifelike HDR experience, and it can better handle glare in a bright room. The TCL also has better local dimming, with significantly less haloing around bright parts of the scene.
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.
