The color palette is wide and realistic, and the LG manages to look vivid and energetic even in low-light scenes. The definition of the edge is achieved well, and the depth of field is quite prodigious at times. Even the most demanding movement is handled without alarm, and in the moments of the highest crisis, the M4 keeps artifacts and print noise to a minimum.
It is also performed in terms of games. The M4 offers a smooth and immersive experience in the Game Optimizer mode: it is a sharp response, keeps the image without stuttering and tears, and makes the most of its wide color palette and ease with contrasts to optimize lighting effects. as well as. Enjoying all this immersive and absorbing experience from a TV that seems connected only to an electrical outlet seems almost decadent.

LG’s Smart TV WebOS interface has undergone some minor changes to arrive in WebOS 24 guise, but despite the more open advertising, it remains one of the most logical and usable interfaces around. Getting what you want is simple whether you use the Wii-like Magic remote (which will be familiar to anyone who’s used an LG TV in the last decade or more), the ThinQ control app, or taking advantage of Amazon’s built-in . Alexa voice control.
So far, so uncomplicatedly impressive. When you add predictable robust build quality, an impeccable standard of finish, and a beautiful slim profile, the LG M4 ticks almost every box. The only way it’s less enjoyable, in fact, is the sound it makes.
Is it worth the upgrade?
Obviously the M4 is far from the only OLED TV with sound that is much less exciting than the accompanying image. But given that it has 60 watts of power driving a matrix of 4.2-channel speakers, the audio quality is tempting and boneless can not help but disappoint. The definition is quite good, and the Clear Voice Pro function that uses AI voice remastering technology certainly allows the dialogue to remain distinct and easy to follow, but there is very little low-frequency substance.
In all fairness, though, this is probably a moot point. It seems unlikely that anyone considering spending more than $4K on a 65-inch TV isn’t budgeting for an audio system to do it justice. When you consider that the M4 is compatible with LG’s WOW orchestra feature, which allows the screen speakers to join with, rather than be replaced by, an LG soundbar, buying one to do the job well is an apology
Yes, the addition of a soundbar or another speaker system (they can also be placed in the walls!) It is not completely in accordance with the whole zero-clutter atmosphere, but it is not the fault of the screen. Basically, no modern TV comes with good speakers. Just have your interior designer plan for some wall speakers, or mount a soundbar somewhere.
Let’s not forget that the ordinary OLED TV alternative that you can consider is very likely to need sonic assistance as well, and it will definitely need a lot of cables to be connected to its rear to do its thing well. This means that the M4 remains a unique proposition as well as a superbly realized television. If you don’t need wireless connectivity, you can skip it, but if you do, this is the only game in town. We are sure that fortune looks amazing.
