LG UQ7000 shows us how you can have a modern, beautiful, intelligent television, full of functions and capable of even being able to use it to play games, for a very low price.<\/p>\n

Design and connectivity<\/h2>\n

We are facing a conventional television model in terms of design\u00a0.\u00a0Black color, restrained frames\u00a0(they occupy less than 10% of the total front and are made up of a single piece)\u00a0and a more aesthetically neglected rear face\u00a0that, honestly, should matter little, since it is not shown.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The measurements, as indicated in the image that we see just above these words, are\u00a061.6 x 96.7 x 21.9 cm\u00a0in the case of fully mounting the TV, with its base and\u00a056.7 x 96.7 x 8.81 cm\u00a0in the case of prefer to stay only with the panel.\u00a0Thus, know that you need to use a\u00a0wall support\u00a0, in this case,\u00a030 x 30 cm\u00a0.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The base is based on\u00a0two supports or legs in the shape of a wide V made of plastic\u00a0and also in black.\u00a0They do not add too much height\u00a0but their weight is very light, something that would provide instability in the case of larger and heavier panels.\u00a0This model is saved because it only\u00a0weighs 7.1 kilos, 7.2 with its little legs\u00a0.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Tuning and connectivity<\/h3>\n

To watch TV we can opt for the analogue tuning of a lifetime, which is given in\u00a0NTSC\/PAL\/SECAM\u00a0, or for the digital one, which includes both terrestrial and cable and satellite (\u00a0DVB-C\/S2\/T2\u00a0).\u00a0But be careful, in this model, as in many others, we also have\u00a0CI+\u00a0, and in version 2.0, as well.\u00a0The television comes with\u00a0its antenna, its female satellite input and a slot for the CI\u00a0, so that all of the above can be made possible.<\/p>\n

The other connections that are included are\u00a0WiFI 5 and bluetooth 5.0\u00a0as wireless and\u00a0two HDMI 2.0, a USB 2.0, optical digital audio output and Ethernet LAN RJ 45\u00a0in the case of the physical ones.<\/p>\n

Thus, we would have support for\u00a0ARC, eARC, CEC, HDCP 2.2, ALLM, bluetooth audio\u00a0\u00a0and, surprisingly,\u00a0HGiG\u00a0, a type of HDR for video games.<\/p>\n

Image quality and general functions<\/h2>\n

LG 43UQ7000 integrates an\u00a0IPS panel\u00a0, something remarkable, because, according to its price, one would expect a VA, but better, of course.\u00a0This has a diagonal of\u00a043 inches\u00a0, being 108 cm and giving a total viewing space of 94.11 x 52.94 cm.\u00a0Of course, it is more restrained in terms of\u00a0matrix and color depth, which are 24 and 8 bits\u00a0respectively.\u00a0Thus, the perfect reproduction of colors remains at 16.7 million.<\/p>\n

Its\u00a0UHD\u00a0resolution means that the panel is considered to have a very high pixel density, since it includes 103 per inch.\u00a0The latter means that many pixels are dedicated to a small area and this can be filled with details.<\/p>\n

Other details that we find on the panel are an edge backlight, also called\u00a0Edge LED\u00a0or a conventional frequency of\u00a060 Hz\u00a0at most.\u00a0LG does not advertise any motion enhancement technology to promote frequency work.<\/p>\n

We do find two types of\u00a0noise reducers\u00a0for the image,\u00a0a scaler\u00a0up to UHD, the famous\u00a0filmmaker mode\u00a0,\u00a0HDR HLG and HDR 10 Pro (and HGiG\u00a0for games as we have already mentioned), automatic brightness control through artificial intelligence, a\u00a0fifth-generation processor generation\u00a0that works the image with a\u00a0dynamic mapping\u00a0dividing it into 576 independent zones so that the tones are more precise and a\u00a0game panel\u00a0that configures aspects so that the image is perfect while you are entertained.<\/p>\n

Audio<\/h3>\n

The model may not stand out at the power level because it comes with the typical\u00a0two 10 W down firing speakers\u00a0that we are used to seeing in the vast majority of models.<\/p>\n

However, we can applaud the fact that LG incorporates several sound options into such a cheap TV that improve the audio and the experience.\u00a0The first and most important is the\u00a0virtualization of sound in 5.1 channels\u00a0that the AI \u200b\u200bis able to achieve in some circumstances thanks to the sound scaler.\u00a0We discovered conventional support for\u00a0Dolby Digital\u00a0,\u00a0adaptive\u00a0sound control, a\u00a0specific\u00a0sound mode ,\u00a0Clear Voice Pro technology, LG Sound Sync\u00a0and surround sound playback\u00a0via bluetooth\u00a0.<\/p>\n

Analysis of the software \/ smartTV of the LG 43UQ70006LB<\/h2>\n

Being a model launched in LG 43UQ7000, it could not include an operating system other than\u00a0webOS 22\u00a0, improved to enjoy it that year.<\/p>\n

Compared to previous versions we found that now you can\u00a0make your own profile\u00a0.\u00a0This will save your experience with the television, including what you see and what you stop seeing to make recommendations, continue the content where you left off, etc.\u00a0Each member of the family will have their own and thus each use will not modify the experience of the rest.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This is how the different user profiles look on the LG 43UQ7000<\/p>\n

Otherwise, the model offers all the smart features of a current mid-range model.\u00a0Mirroring\u00a0from other devices with LG Screen Share, Miracast and AirPlay 2,\u00a0voice assistants\u00a0(Alexa and Google),\u00a0USB recording,\u00a0Internet browser,\u00a0sports alerts, access to popular applications\u00a0such as YouTube, Netflix and hundreds of them, choice of\u00a0a player or content manager\u00a0to your liking…<\/p>\n
