Our Verdict
Average TV for a range of usage. Performs much better in a bright room, where reflections are dealt with well and dark scene issues are less obvious. Picture quality is average, even when viewed at an angle.
- Picture quality remains when viewed at an angle
- Smart platform is featured and intuitive
- Upscaling of low quality content is good
- Uses less accurate RGBW pixel structure
- Blacks appear gray in dark rooms
- Uniformity is below average
Bad in a dark room. Picture quality is average, and blacks appear gray. Uniformity issues are more obvious. No local dimming features.
Above average for watching TV in a bright living room. Picture quality is average even when viewed from the side. When watching non-HDR content the screen doesn't get bright enough to effectively deal with glare. Smart interface is great for casual watching or viewing pictures, and upscaling of low quality TV is great.
Good sports performance. Picture quality is average, even when viewed at an angle. Little motion blur, which is good. Some issues with the uniformity but only a little bit of the dirty screen effect is present.
Good for video games. Picture quality is average. Motion blur and input lag are good, and should not be an issue for most people.
Even if the LG UH6100 supports HDR10, it is missing the wide color gamut, the high peak brightness and the local dimming. The overall picture quality is average, but the lack of features results in an average HDR performance. When watching in a dark room, the blacks appear gray.
Supports HDR10 format, but is unable to benefit due to lack of wide color gamut and low peak brightness. Picture quality is average, but blacks look gray.
Works well as a PC monitor. Picture quality is average, but chroma 4:4:4 support means text appears clear. Due to the pixel structure, some straight lines appear jagged as can be seen here. Response time and motion blur is low which is good.

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.
