Performance & Picture Quality

The picture quality is remarkably good for a TV in this price range. The 4K resolution is sharp and detailed, and the HDR support enhances the contrast and color vibrancy. I found the upscaling of lower-resolution content to be surprisingly effective, resulting in a noticeably improved image. Colors were accurate and vibrant, making movies and shows look stunning. The Dolby Audio system produces clear and powerful sound, though I did find that the sound could be improved slightly at higher volumes. The WebOS interface is responsive and easy to navigate, making accessing streaming apps a breeze. Streaming performance was smooth and reliable. The AirPlay and Apple TV integration functioned flawlessly, which is a bonus for Apple users. I did experience some minor motion blur during fast-paced scenes, however, this is typical at 60hz.

Pros & Cons

    Pros:

  • Excellent picture quality for the price
  • Smooth and responsive WebOS interface
  • Effective 4K upscaling
  • Good sound quality (for built-in speakers)
  • Seamless Apple TV and AirPlay integration
  • Wide range of streaming services pre-installed
  • Stylish bezel-less design

    Cons:

  • Minor motion blur noticeable in fast-paced scenes
  • Sound quality could be slightly improved at higher volumes
  • 60hz refresh rate may not be suitable for gamers.

Final Verdict

The Lloyd 55 Inch Smart 4K UHD WebOS LED TV (D55US850E) offers exceptional value for money. Its stunning picture quality, user-friendly interface, and comprehensive feature set make it a strong contender in its class.
