Product Overview

LG Nano85 is a mainstream 4K VA / IPS TV in LG's 2021 lineup. It is powered by a 10-bit VA panel and available in 50", 55", 65", and 75" size classes.
Compared to the Nano85 from 2020, LG made the bare minimum of changes, perhaps due to stocks that were not going out the door. LG didn't even change the model name. Performance-wise, however, it is small a downgrade.
A highlight of the LG Nano85 is a high screen-to-body ratio up to 94.98%. Additionally, it supports HDR formats including Dolby Vision, HDR10 Pro, HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma), and Dolby Vision IQ. It performs well in terms of contrast. Owners who consider using this TV for gaming will be pleased to learn that it supports AMD FreeSync Premium in terms of variable framerate.
