LG’s RGB LED TV is bright but has drawbacks compared with OLED

LG has released the 75-inch MRGB95B, a $3,600 RGB LED television, as manufacturers bring the technology to more models.

It uses red, green and blue LEDs in its backlight to produce bright, vivid colors.

Testing found it reached 4,011 nits in HDR, making it effective in a sunlit room.

But the screen is highly reflective, colors can be inaccurate without adjustment, and bright details against dark scenes can create distracting halos called blooming.

It also has difficulty showing detail in very dark parts of an image.

The TV runs LG’s webOS and supports major streaming apps, Dolby Vision and four HDMI 2.1 ports.

The review concludes that the set can suit some viewing conditions, but OLED is a better choice overall.
