    Good but not great
    The picture is good, not excellent, for the money spent. I am totally frustrated by having to see and navigate through the apps and LG channels on the screen when you turn on the tv. I don’t know how to remove them and go straight to cable tv. I have tried to figure it out with no success. I have spent hours trying to figure it out. Help!

    New LG QNed 2025
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new LG QNED 2025 is amazing. The remote has a cursor as well as buttons for the main apps. The tv can change the picture mode based on the program you are watching. Sound is great. When not used goes into sleep mode.
