Can't go by that review, the Costco 82" uses a VA panel, which should have a much better picture than the IPS panels in the review..

Pretty good deal... beats BF by $50.
RTINGS did review the VA 82" version in 2019 (um8070). I wouldn't be surprised if it's the same panel... or very similar.

Per LG spec sheet, 75 & 86 are IPS, 82 is not (=VA?).

The review itself says they reviewed the IPS panel and mentions the 82 has a different panel.

" As expected from an IPS panel, the LG UN8500 has a low contrast ratio. Blacks appear closer to gray when viewed in the dark. Contrast may vary between units.

Note: The 82 inch model has a VA panel, so we expect it to have a much better contrast."

I have an LG 70" VA panel (2018 model) and IMO it looks excellent. Much nicer than my IPS Samsung 43" MU6300 (2017 model).

The 43 is my monitor, and I can also send the signal to my 70", so I can do an A/B.

Good luck getting it if you order it online. I just had the worst Costco nightmare of my life. After waiting 4 weeks for the TV I ordered to arrive, it was a No Show, No Call. event then hours on the phone with Costco, to find out that first it was lost, then it was not lost, then the orded a second one and did not cancel the first order. Then I got to the Joke call Costco Expidate Team who lied to me. The next date for arrival was 4 more weeks and I was supposed to be available all day, they would call the night before and tell me if it was AM or PM.

I gave up and canceled the orders and promised myself never to order a TV online from Costco again.

The big lie is that the shipping company has been owned by Costco since April 2020 and they are seriously failing. And now Costco customer services are untrained and lie to you. They plan to call this POS company Costco Logistics. God help us all.

I ordered this TV ast Friday and it was delivered the following Monday. Received notifications for delivery window and got a call day of from delivery guys. Great experience here. Now just need to get price adjustment.
