Human pursuit of audio-visual sensory stimulation has never stopped , 1080p Full HD video seems to have just become part of our lives, 4K has quietly arrived . This time I was lucky enough to participate in this LG UF6600 4K Ultra HD Smart LCD TV (hereinafter referred to as UF6600 ). This is a 4K smart TV that LG released in 2015. Equipped with the newly acquired WebOS 2.0 system from LG. Not much gossip, immediately see how this smart TV performance!
First, appearance and workmanship
Due to the "furniture" nature of televisions, the concept of yan is something that must be considered. The UF6600 received this time is a 49-inch version. Narrow frame design, base design I like , More than the middle of a large base style more sense of the times , full of visual impact . The guests at home looked very beautiful However, this also brings some problems. Once this base is not very strong, there will be a sense of swaying when you touch the body. Second, the base of this style has greater requirements for the length of the TV cabinet.
Look at the side, similar to the MacBook's shuttle design, with a thin edge and a wide middle. The design of the white backboard really shines in the dark ocean!
There is a ULTRA HD logo in the lower right corner, UHD is Ultra HD , 4K resolution (3840x2160). Incidentally, "ultra clear" on domestic video websites is actually just a concept of stealing, and generally only reaches 720P (HD). . The front border is made of metal wire drawing and it is not new. "Thao gold" color is very good, it is silver with gold . Apart from being rustic, it is also extravagant. . But to tell the truth, because of the narrowness of the narrow panel, there is no sense of existence . So the impact is small
Look at the upper left corner where there is a small gap between the plastic and the metal frame connections . It is not clear whether it is a courier or a process issue. If it is a process problem, it can be improved. Although not obvious. But it's enough to force people with obsessive-compulsive disorder too hard (well I'm not ).
There is an LG logo directly below. There is an indicator below. The TV is off when it is working properly. A faint red light will be emitted during standby. Now the state advocates shutting off power supply and saving standby power. Hidden under the indicator light, there is a four-way rocker switch , which is also the only button on the body. It can also be used to change channels or adjust the volume without a remote control.
Going to the back, the left side of the line, I don't know much about Ethernet and digital audio interfaces . It seems to be quite old. There are two HDMI 1.4 connectors and two USB (one 3.0) connectors on the right side. Modern scenes use a maximum of 4 interfaces for special direction processing. Worthy of praise Finally, I couldn't help but praise the back of the white. It was very beautiful (but it was a nightmare after the ageing turned yellow)
In this section, the current price of Jingdong is less than RMB 5,000. The shape of the LG UF6600 is satisfactory . Narrow frame, nice base, gold and white with brushed texture look very stylish . Workmanship is also unsatisfactory. If we can improve the small flaws better. It will not be regrettable
Second, system and function
I have early discovered that many things have such characteristics: the development stage gradually increases in function and gradually becomes complicated . After reaching the top, it gradually went to rough, slowly tends to be simple . The UF6600's affiliation was "letting the TV back simple". In the first use, there will be a graphical tutorial guide (similar to the use of smart routing guide). And this series of guides is lively and lively , with cartoon animation, it can be said that all ages pass kill .
As for the operation, in order to give everyone a direct view of the operation of the TV , a small video was recorded (without a tripod, and the recent iron hand skills have been a bit backward, we forgive ). The UF6600 is equipped with WebOS 2.0. From the operation, we can also feel that WebOS 2.0 is the same lineage of smart phone . The home button on the remote control brings up different functional phases. Switch left and right, up and down can change the location or delete the application. From the convenience of operation, light and smooth, far better than the current mainstream smart TV and TV box big box operation mode . In particular, if you want to delete an application, just press three times (up, up, confirm) on WebOS 2.0. Under the Android platform, it is much more complicated to accomplish the same task. Incidentally, the UF6600's boot speed is very fast, and it takes about 10 seconds to press the power supply until it can be used.
Speaking of manipulation, I must mention the remote control. On the left is the UF6600's remote control . The other cat's ear is known to be the remote control of the Lynx box . Although the UF6600 is a smart TV , his remote control design is closer to a traditional TV . Perhaps LG will it be designed so has his reasons (say good let it return to simple TV ). But I still prefer the simpler remote control that resembles the Lynx box . . After all, the use of navigation keys, confirmation keys, return keys, and home keys should be the most used . In the UF6600 remote control design, these keys are not designed to be particularly prominent or slightly spaced from other keys. In addition to not being eye-catching, it is easy to press wrong .
In terms of functions, the UF6600 uses a Chinese content library. Compared with others, there is no disadvantage and no advantage . However, because it is not Android, there is no third-party video software. Want to see more content, still have to pay for money without consulting . As can be seen from the above video, the UF6600's access method is also very rich, in addition to conventional HDMI, USB input, DTV (need to support the region, and install the antenna), MiraCast , WiDi, etc. are not owed . It is worth mentioning that LG also made a decent application store, but there is not a few decent content inside. The game is basically Helloworld level Not to mention!
Third, audio-visual experience
As a 4K TV, ignoring the quality of the picture is a rogue. Found a set of 4K TV test images that are hot on the Internet but are difficult to download. The above pictures are pictures taken on the actual machine (using the default Eco mode).
Figure 1 is the gamut of a test TV. As a photography enthusiast, it is also quite sensitive to color. Among the 9 colored balls, gray, yellow and cyan are over perfect . Brown, dark brown, green has a certain fault . Blue, magenta, and red have a small amount of spillage . The subjective color performance is also satisfactory.
Figure 2 and 4 show the dynamic range (gray scale). The grayscale performance of UF6600 in black is very good . However , the performance in white is still not satisfactory . However, if you are watching a movie scene, excellent darkness performance will be more helpful for visual effects.
Figure 3 is a resolution test . There is no doubt that the perfect 4K resolution . The above is a partial enlargement, the blue arrow is the smallest font that 1080P can see clearly, and the red arrow is 4K. 4 times the resolution is really not covered .
Another selling point of UF6600 is IPS hard screen. Wide viewing angle is a point that many people care about when they buy TV. After all, most of the time we watch TV is not the golden position of the small angle . From the above figure, there is almost no color cast on the left and right sides. On the other hand, the upper and lower sides are slightly darkened (the actual darkness is not as obvious as the picture ). The only problem is that there is a problem of reduced contrast at the extreme angle of the right side . There is no big problem .
Another problem is the decoding capability of 4K video. Above, I found 4 segments of 4K video. The object of comparison is a laptop (i5-3210M, 8G, GT645M). You can see from the test, UF6600 spike 4 test video All can be played smoothly . And the corresponding laptop is too weak for No. 2 video . The HEVC+10bit combination should be the highest-standard video compression format popular on the Internet . From this point of view, UF6600 should be able to deal with the vast majority of video files.
UF6600 Jingdong page and official information did not specify how the refresh rate of the screen . However, judging from the look and feel, when the UF6600 plays 60fps video, the picture is smooth and natural , and there is no problem of smearing. It is satisfactory in this regard.
Audio Experience: The "Super Surround Stereo" on the LG UF6600 really surprised me! Because there is no use at all . In order to narrow the border design, the compromise will design two loudspeakers with only 10W at the bottom of the TV, and the distance between the left and right channels is very close, and the stereo effect is greatly reduced . The UF6600's low-frequency performance is also unsatisfactory due to the size and space constraints. When watching a movie, the atmosphere will be a lot worse. However , the high-frequency performance is still good for the TV.
Summary: In terms of audio-visual effects, UF6600's visual effects are pleasantly surprised, and all aspects are satisfactory. . The audio effect is slightly inferior. To get good audio and visual effects, you need an external speaker .
Four: ease of use test
At the time of applying for the test, it was attracted by the UF6600's slogan "Let the TV return to be simple." I would like to think that if a TV operation is simple enough , it would be an elderly person who has not been exposed to digital products. So specifically for the elderly home to try UF6600. See if it's as simple as LG said.
There is nothing entertaining the elderly after retirement. Watching TV is the best way to kill time every day. It was a great surprise to see such a big TV for the first time (before this I used a 32-inch small TV). After demonstrating the basic operations such as booting and changing stations. Let the old man at home try . The results are all very unsatisfactory. Most of the time it ended up being unknown. . In addition to the complicated buttons on the remote controller, the main reason is that the smart TV and the traditional TV operation logic are very different . Traditional TV has no function. The old people can use it to change the stage, adjust the volume, and switch the machine . It's all in one plane . The smart TV operation is hierarchical . Different functions are distributed on different planes . It is not easy for old people to operate smart TVs in accordance with the experience of using traditional television .
"Let TVs come back simple" For most of us, the operation of the UF6600 should be simple and easy . But for the elders it may be exactly the opposite. After all, they rarely use electronic products (except for grandparents who will be playing in the city) ). Now many people will buy large-size TVs to honor their elders. I think if the UF6600 can join a "minimal mode" like on a cell phone , it would be true to make TV "return simple". .
V. Summary
advantage:
1. Well-designed, narrow frame, white gold, full of fashion sense
2. Rich interface, plus USB 3.0 interface addition
3. The system operation is simple and smooth, with rich access modes and complete functions
4. The video effect is satisfactory, the decoding ability is good, and the viewing angle is wide
Disadvantages:
1. There is still a little bit of workmanship, not perfect
2. The lack of store content, too few applications and games
3. The sound quality is relatively mediocre
4. The remote controller design is not reasonable.
Judging from the LG official page, in the 4K TV, there are two models out of the show. The UF6600 should be the main 4K TV . 49 inches, about 4500 prices. Not expensive for 4K, plus all aspects of the overall performance is good. It can be said that it is more competitive . WebOS 2.0 smart system is both an advantage and a disadvantage . On the one hand, the operation of WebOS 2.0 is simple and rapid , but on the other hand, its application is small and simple , and the "smart" fun is greatly reduced. If you want to buy a TV that simply watches TV or online video, the UF6600 is fully capable. But if you want more rich entertainment , such as playing mini-games. UF6600 may be powerless .
6. Postscript
The public test was the most popular product I had ever made, and there were many problems on the way. Individuals have gone out of business and cannot experience it in time. Special thanks go to Xiaobian’s support and trust here. , The net opened a little delayed the deadline. There have also been many problems in the process of the experience. The TV cabinet that was temporarily bought from Jingdong was not long enough to put down the TV and could only be found in other places. In the process of placing, the family still turned to the feng shui problem of setting the TV . The stalemate is not less. It is hard to accept that young people who believe in science as a new era are not superstitious. Anyway, a thousand words into one sentence: Thank you for watching!
