KEY FEATURES

4K UHD Display & Immersive Visuals

The LG 55UQ8050PSB features a 55‑inch 4K Ultra HD (3840 × 2160) LED panel that delivers crisp and lifelike visuals with four times the detail of Full HD. Its Direct LED backlighting ensures uniform brightness and consistent color reproduction across the entire screen, enhancing clarity and depth for films, series, and streamed content. The display supports multiple Picture Modes—including Vivid, Cinema, Sports, Game, Filmmaker, and ISF Expert modes—giving users flexibility to tailor visual output based on content type and viewing environment.

α5 Gen5 AI Processor 4K – Smarter Picture Engine

At the core of the 55UQ8050PSB is the α5 Gen5 AI Processor 4K, which intelligently processes and enhances incoming content. It performs 4K upscaling on lower‑resolution sources to bring them closer to ultra‑high‑definition clarity, while AI Brightness Control adjusts screen luminance based on ambient lighting conditions for optimal picture balance. Dynamic Tone Mapping refines contrast on a scene‑by‑scene basis, preserving detail in both bright highlights and deep shadows. Filmmaker Mode disables unnecessary processing to present content as intended by the creators.

Advanced HDR & Color Performance

The 55UQ8050PSB supports HDR10 and HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma) formats, expanding the dynamic range for HDR‑enabled content and improving contrast, brightness, and color accuracy. This results in richer visuals with more detail in challenging light and dark areas, bringing out the best in HDR movies, shows, and compatible streaming content. Combined with the processor’s tone‑mapping capabilities, HDR content becomes more engaging and immersive overall.

Smart Platform & Streaming with webOS 22

Powered by webOS 22, the TV delivers a smooth and intuitive smart interface with access to popular streaming apps including Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video, YouTube, and more (availability varies by region). webOS also offers features like Sports Alert, Family Settings, Home Dashboard, and a full web browser, giving users a personalized and streamlined way to enjoy entertainment. LG ThinQ AI integration enables voice control and smart home interaction, making navigation and content discovery easier and more interactive.

AI Sound Pro & Audio Technologies

The 55UQ8050PSB includes a 20 W (2.0‑channel) speaker system enhanced with AI Sound, which analyzes and up‑mixes audio to simulate a Virtual 5.1 surround sound experience. Clear Voice Pro enhances dialogue clarity, while Bluetooth Surround Ready and LG Sound Sync support pairing with compatible wireless speakers or soundbars for a richer audio experience. Audio tuning improves sound balance for movies, music, and sports, making the TV’s built‑in audio more immersive than standard stereo.

Gaming Features & Motion Optimization

Although marketed for everyday entertainment, this model includes enhancements that benefit casual gamers. It supports HGIG Mode (HDR Gaming Interest Group) and Game Optimizer to automatically optimize HDR and visual settings for gaming content. Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) reduces input lag when a gaming console is connected, and the 60 Hz native refresh rate handles fast motion content smoothly, offering responsive visual performance for games, sports, and action movies.

Connectivity & Everyday Convenience

Connectivity options on the LG 55UQ8050PSB include 3 × HDMI ports (one with eARC/ARC), 2 × USB ports, Wi‑Fi (802.11ac), Ethernet LAN, optical digital audio out (SPDIF), RF antenna input, Bluetooth 5.0, and Simplink (HDMI CEC). These allow easy connection of consoles, streaming devices, soundbars, set‑top boxes, and USB drives. Smart features like Room‑to‑Room Share, Smart Energy Saving, and USB camera compatibility add practical everyday value to the user experience.
