Seems like a much better deal than the TU7000 from Walmart or Best Buy. Same price but with a 5y warranty (instead of 1), a very slightly bigger screen, better viewing angles (IPS panel), 120hz, 4 HDMI ports (instead of 2), HDMI 2.1.
The sale for this was originally slated for the 14th at $1100, according to their Black Friday catalog. I guess they decided to let it go live early & reduced the price!
Edit: I am a little confused why their thumbnail says 2 HDMI when it has 4. I looked up the manuals online on LG's website though and it says 4 in total, 2 x 2.0 & 2 x 2.1.
Edit2: Apparently IPS, 120hz, VRR, & 2 extra HDMI ports (2.1) are unique to the 86" model. Anything smaller is a VA panel, has 2 HDMI ports, only 2.0, no VRR, & 60hz.
Edit3: My pa-in-law mounted it in his living room & has been using it for a few days and is absolutely in love with it. Merry early Christmas, Dale
Edit: Never mind....
From rting
"The LG UQ80 is okay for most uses. It's good for use in rooms with a few lights around while watching TV shows or using it as a PC monitor as it has decent reflection handling, but it doesn't get bright enough to fight a ton of glare. It's also decent for watching sports thanks to its wide viewing angle, but its motion handling isn't special, as there's image duplication. Unfortunately, it's mediocre for watching movies in dark rooms as blacks look gray, and the TV lacks a local dimming feature to further improve the contrast."

I purchased the LG at Costco a few hours ago. Hoping I like it. If not, return!
Can someone tell me how easy is it to install android or android APKs into webOS
I know I can use other methods via streaming devices. But is it still possible to run android apps on this version of webOS?
edit:
It appears it is possible
The LG ThinQ is one of the smartest televisions to come out in recent years, but does it support Android Apps? Yes, it does. LG's webOS interface is very user-friendly, and can be controlled with the LG Magic Remote or an app on a mobile device. The device also uses a point-and-click system, meaning you don't have to use the arrow keys to navigate. The interface also features convenient app switching and integration with voice assistants, which make it easy to use the TV.
For those who are wondering, the Samsung 85" fits in a Chevy Traverse with the second row folded. So I'd think the same would apply for bringing the LG 86" from a Costco warehouse in case you have to.

86" 120hz for 1k is too damn good to pass up.
Thanks OP!
