According to our television expert
The LG OLED55E8P guarantees a realistic movie experience. Thanks to the OLED screen, black images are truly black. This allows you to see powerful contrast and lifelike colors. In combination with the integrated A9 processor, images are extra detailed and smooth. You won't miss a single moment of fast action like a passing race car. Aside from live TV, the smart functions give you access to online entertainment. The clear menu lets you easily switch between useful apps, games, or video services. With the included Magic Remote, you can browse all of your entertainment using gestures or simple voice commands. This way, you won't have to press keys every time.

The picture is absolutely fantastic, provided the TV has a good video source and material. The sound is okay, better than most other flat TVs, but a bit worse (especially bass) than even the cheap soundbars. However, for most people the sound will be good enough. The TV is a beautiful object, it radiates elegance and the floating illusion design is completely unique. It's fun to watch even when it's off. Many people comment that the cables are still visible behind the glass plate. My experience is that it is not that bad and with a little creativity and improvisation (a white tape around the cables and/or a cable duct in the right color) it is possible to make the cables almost completely invisible. The supplied cable manager on the back is of limited capacity: don't expect that you can run more than 3-4 cables through it (so the AC cord, and with some effort a maximum of 3 HDMI cables, or 2 HDMI and 1 optical audio cable) .
Controlling the TV is extremely easy: the LG Magic remote (a combination of the classic remote control and a kind of 3D mouse/laser pointer) works very well and can also be programmed for other equipment around the TV (external set-top box or tuner). , where you can fully control the TV with only 1 remote control. LG's WebOS works great, it's fast and stable, and the necessary applications are there (YouTube, Netflix, Disney, browser, SmartShare, etc.). The built-in media player (if you plan to play movies from an external USB stick or hard drive e.g.) is also excellent and has all kinds of settings (external subtitles are supported, with possibilities for position adjustment, synchronization etc. ).
The AC cord cannot be replaced and is only 1.5 m long. That wasn't a problem for me, but it's hard to imagine that with a TV of this price they don't offer the option of replacing the AC cord with a longer one, should the need arise. The biggest flaw, if you can call it that, is the assembly and placement. This caused the necessary stress, due to the fragility of the thin and large panel and the weight of the TV (almost 24 kg with the foot). When it's in the base, it still looks a bit wobbly and you have to be careful not to accidentally push it too much on the top, otherwise the glass plate could break off in the base. That record is probably stronger than I think, but it looks fragile. All in all, I am very satisfied with this beautiful TV.

This LG OLED 55E8 was very easy to install and the settings for picture, color and sound are easy to change to your preference. The image and sound can be called very good, when you play DVD or Netflix film you will indeed experience a virtual full surround sound. In fact, you don't need a soundbar, so it's ideal.
I mounted this TV in a TV cabinet on a rotating panel using a Vogel's THIN 505 ExtraThin wall bracket. The HDMI, UTP network and fiber optic audio connections on the back wall can only be used if you drill extra holes in the wall panel, because otherwise the wall bracket cannot fully support against the wall because the connectors protrude just too much.
The connections (2x HDMI, 1x ARC and 1x USB) on the side can be used in combination with the ExtraThin wall bracket. Also a pity that the power cord is attached to the TV, this is a bit more difficult to quickly remove the TV from the wall bracket.
