FAQs
What is MiniLED technology and how does it improve the picture?
MiniLED technology uses thousands of tiny LED lights to backlight the display. This allows for much finer control over brightness and dimming zones, resulting in deeper blacks, higher contrast ratios, and improved overall picture clarity compared to traditional LED TVs.
How do I connect external devices like a game console or soundbar?
You can connect devices using the HDMI ports on the back or side of the TV. For advanced audio features like Dolby Atmos passthrough, use the HDMI port labeled 'eARC' or 'ARC' to connect to a compatible soundbar or AV receiver.
Can I use this TV for gaming?
Yes, the LG QNED85 is designed for gaming with features like a 120Hz native refresh rate, VRR (Variable Refresh Rate), ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode), and support for HDMI 2.1 specifications. It also includes a Game Optimiser and supports cloud gaming via the Gaming Portal.
What is the difference between this TV and an LG OLED TV?
While both offer excellent picture quality, OLED TVs use self-emissive pixels for perfect blacks and infinite contrast, whereas QNED MiniLED TVs use a backlight system. QNED technology offers very high brightness and excellent contrast through MiniLED backlighting, making it a strong contender, especially in brighter rooms.
How do I access LG's smart features and apps?
The TV comes with LG's webOS smart platform. Press the Home button on the AI Magic Remote to access the main dashboard, where you can find pre-installed apps like Netflix, YouTube, and Disney+, as well as browse and download additional applications from the LG Content Store.
Does this TV support voice control?
Yes, the LG QNED85 works with Google Assistant, allowing you to control various TV functions using voice commands through the AI Magic Remote. It does not directly support Amazon Alexa.
What is the refresh rate for gaming?
The TV has a native refresh rate of 120Hz. The 'Motion Booster 288' feature can deliver up to 288Hz refresh rate but this is at an optimized Full HD resolution for ultra-smooth gameplay, not native 4K.
Troubleshooting
TV will not turn on
Check that the power cord is securely plugged into both the TV and a working wall outlet. Try a different outlet. If using a power strip, connect directly to the wall. Ensure the remote has fresh batteries.
No picture or sound from connected devices
Verify that the correct input source is selected on the TV. Check that HDMI or other cables are securely connected at both ends. Try a different HDMI cable or port.
Picture quality is poor or distorted
Ensure the source content is high quality (e.g., 4K streaming or Blu-ray). Check picture settings and consider adjusting brightness, contrast, or color. Run the AI Picture Wizard via the TV settings for automatic optimization. Ensure the TV's software is up to date.
Wi-Fi connection is unstable or not working
Restart your router and modem. Ensure the TV is within range of the router. Forget the Wi-Fi network in the TV settings and reconnect. Check for any available TV software updates.
Smart TV apps are slow or crashing
Close and reopen the app. Check your internet connection speed. Clear the cache for the specific app or for the TV system if possible. Uninstall and reinstall the app. Ensure the TV's operating system is up to date.
Remote control is not responding
Replace the batteries in the remote. Ensure there are no obstructions between the remote and the TV's sensor. Try re-pairing the remote by holding down the back button and home button simultaneously for a few seconds while pointing at the TV.
