Overview

The LG 50QNED80URA is a 50 inch television from LG's QNED80 series, combining a mini-LED backlight with quantum dot color filtering and 4K UHD resolution. It runs LG's webOS smart platform, with Wi-Fi listed for network connectivity.

QNED sits above LG's standard LED lineup by pairing mini-LED backlighting with the quantum dot layer used on NanoCell-style panels, aimed at deeper contrast and wider color than a basic LED set. At 34 lb and roughly 44 by 28 inches without a stand, it is heavier than a standard LED panel of similar size, consistent with the added mini-LED hardware behind the screen.
