Re: Not a repair, only a purchase advice ask for
Some incomplete info I know of LG TVs.
Bag BGA or processor:
LG series from 2009
LD some models
LV
LM
UF higher end models
Horrible panel:
F
J
H
Bad Backlights:
F
J
H
The whole F, J and H series are a fiasco, backlight that turns blue over time, and panel dies like flies, develops horizontal lines or flickering.
Seems that from UM series forward LGs have been solid, at least compared to Samsung, their NU series have terrible backlights. RU, TU and expensive QLEDs have been having panel problems. I haven't seen any LG UM models or newer with any fault for sale around here.
Easy to figure out when you search the motherboard for a select model and check the price, usually if it has bad BGA there will be listings offering to "repair" the board, and a working one will cost at least 70% of what the TV is worth. -

Re: Not a repair, only a purchase advice ask for
being sold new?
LB 2014 < backlight problems
UJ 2015
UH 2016
UJ 2017
UK 2018
UM 2019
UN 2020
UP 2021, being produced and sold for now.
For Nanocell I'll use a single model as example:
SJ8500 2017
SK8000 2018
SM8600 2019
NANO85 2020 - NANO86 in some countries
NANO85 2021
The "U" is for ultra HD (4k), for 1080p/768p LG uses "L" prefix, like LF or LJ
Bottom tier LED TVs have reached stagnation, there's nothing new since 2017, same peak brightness, panel types vary from manufacturer, lg 55 inch is IPS or ADS, they're similar, some 60 inch models uses VA.
Even high tier, most of them are 4k 120Hz, the only difference between them is having a higher peak brightness with mini-led or 8k panel, which has no use right now.Last edited by Biruslapio; 04-13-2022, 04:52 PM.Comment
