Additionally, the native refresh rate of 60 Hz may not be suitable for gaming enthusiasts, leading to stuttering during high-speed content. HDR technology is not fully supported, which can reduce picture quality for some optimized content. Finally, its weight of 19 kg can make transport and installation more difficult. In terms of scores, the user experience is rated as pleasant with a score of 80, while performance, although satisfactory, receives a score of 75. Connectivity stands out with a high score of 85. Audio is also rated positively with a score of 78, but the design, although rated at 82, suffers from the television's high weight. Finally, the value for money is rated at 70, reflecting the limitations in Smart TV features and HDR compatibility. Overall, the LG 55SJ8500 is a television offering a quality visual and audio experience, but it may not meet the expectations of all users due to certain functional shortcomings.Score details
