LG UQ7000 Review: Impressive TV at a very low price (2024)

LG UQ7000 shows us how you can have a modern, beautiful, intelligent television, full of functions and capable of even being able to use it to play games, for a very low price.

Design and connectivity

We are facing a conventional television model in terms of design.Black color, restrained frames(they occupy less than 10% of the total front and are made up of a single piece)and a more aesthetically neglected rear facethat, honestly, should matter little, since it is not shown.

The measurements, as indicated in the image that we see just above these words, are61.6 x 96.7 x 21.9 cmin the case of fully mounting the TV, with its base and56.7 x 96.7 x 8.81 cmin the case of prefer to stay only with the panel.Thus, know that you need to use awall support, in this case,30 x 30 cm.

The base is based ontwo supports or legs in the shape of a wide V made of plasticand also in black.They do not add too much heightbut their weight is very light, something that would provide instability in the case of larger and heavier panels.This model is saved because it onlyweighs 7.1 kilos, 7.2 with its little legs.

Tuning and connectivity

To watch TV we can opt for the analogue tuning of a lifetime, which is given inNTSC/PAL/SECAM, or for the digital one, which includes both terrestrial and cable and satellite (DVB-C/S2/T2).But be careful, in this model, as in many others, we also haveCI+, and in version 2.0, as well.The television comes withits antenna, its female satellite input and a slot for the CI, so that all of the above can be made possible.

The other connections that are included areWiFI 5 and bluetooth 5.0as wireless andtwo HDMI 2.0, a USB 2.0, optical digital audio output and Ethernet LAN RJ 45in the case of the physical ones.

Thus, we would have support forARC, eARC, CEC, HDCP 2.2, ALLM, bluetooth audioand, surprisingly,HGiG, a type of HDR for video games.

Image quality and general functions

LG 43UQ7000 integrates anIPS panel, something remarkable, because, according to its price, one would expect a VA, but better, of course.This has a diagonal of43 inches, being 108 cm and giving a total viewing space of 94.11 x 52.94 cm.Of course, it is more restrained in terms ofmatrix and color depth, which are 24 and 8 bitsrespectively.Thus, the perfect reproduction of colors remains at 16.7 million.

ItsUHDresolution means that the panel is considered to have a very high pixel density, since it includes 103 per inch.The latter means that many pixels are dedicated to a small area and this can be filled with details.

Other details that we find on the panel are an edge backlight, also calledEdge LEDor a conventional frequency of60 Hzat most.LG does not advertise any motion enhancement technology to promote frequency work.

We do find two types ofnoise reducersfor the image,a scalerup to UHD, the famousfilmmaker mode,HDR HLG and HDR 10 Pro (and HGiGfor games as we have already mentioned), automatic brightness control through artificial intelligence, afifth-generation processor generationthat works the image with adynamic mappingdividing it into 576 independent zones so that the tones are more precise and agame panelthat configures aspects so that the image is perfect while you are entertained.

Audio

The model may not stand out at the power level because it comes with the typicaltwo 10 W down firing speakersthat we are used to seeing in the vast majority of models.

However, we can applaud the fact that LG incorporates several sound options into such a cheap TV that improve the audio and the experience.The first and most important is thevirtualization of sound in 5.1 channelsthat the AI ​​is able to achieve in some circ*mstances thanks to the sound scaler.We discovered conventional support forDolby Digital,adaptivesound control, aspecificsound mode ,Clear Voice Pro technology, LG Sound Syncand surround sound playbackvia bluetooth.
