WebOS sends good rhyme LG 55UB8800-CE TV evaluation

IT 168? Needless to say, there are so many models of smart TVs, all of which are Android. I don't know, it feels good, but I always feel that the shortcomings of Android are infinitely magnified on smart TV. Kaka Kaka is dying, of course, not all of them, but they are basically expensive or unavailable. However, looking back at the previous intelligent systems, except for iOS and Android, BB is now struggling half-dead, and webOS has been played by HP ... But at this time, LG boldly took over the webOS system, so there is our protagonist LG Guanyun 55UB8800-CE today.

Conclusion number one:

After a period of use, this TV is still very comfortable for Bian Xiao. Yes, it is very comfortable. There are different opinions about appearance. I think it looks good. Some people think it's average, but at least no one thinks it's ugly. Of course, the base design that fits the Chinese style makes it absolutely full of personality.

In terms of image quality, it can be said that LG really won't treat its children badly. 4K panel, the picture details and clarity are quite powerful. IPS hard screen not only brings a good color impression outside the wide viewing angle, but also ensures the viewing comfort. It's not too rich, and you won't feel tired after reading it for a long time.

The system aspect is the most comfortable embodiment of Bian Xiao. Under the optimization of LG, webOS has excellent fluency, and the animation of switching between various scenes is also pleasing to the eye. Coupled with the cooperation of the somatosensory remote control, various operations can be completed quickly and the user experience is excellent.

Generally speaking, as a TV, this TV is excellent enough, and as a smart TV, it has a very outstanding performance in user experience. At present, it seems that the prospect of webOS playing a beautiful turnaround through smart TV is bright ~

Analysis of webOS Rebirth Experience Upgrade System;

Of course, the most important thing about this TV is the system. webOS, a system that makes countless players sigh, the notification method of pop-up bubbles on the edge of the iOS screen, and the card operation are all learned from webOS. It is not an exaggeration to say that the biggest feature of webOS is the addition of a gesture operation. It can be said that the system itself is endless fun. However, due to various reasons, webOS has declined, but fortunately it has not died out. What has changed since LG took over webOS this time? Let's use this TV bit by bit ~

It's quite efficient when it is turned on, about 8 seconds. This time it is definitely the best of all smart TVs. And once you get started, all kinds of switching animations give people a very comfortable feeling. It can be said that it is not only a good user experience, but also a glimpse of LG's efforts in optimizing this TV.

The animation of icon switching is also quite smooth (it is inevitable that the GIF picture will drop frames).

When you first enter the digital TV live broadcast signal, click the home button on the remote control to wake up the main page, and you can see the embryonic form of card operation. It can be said that compared with the simple and elegant impression given by webOS in the past, coordination and detail design are softer and more dynamic, and driving is quite comfortable. The UI design is also reasonable. Whether it is through the buttons of the remote control or through the somatosensory operation, the operation efficiency is very high, which is much better than the situation that most Android TVs can't choose the options they want.

You can quickly preview and close the previous application in the lower left corner of the main page.

After entering the application, we can have a look at it at will. In any interface, we can call up the home page by clicking the house key. We can quickly start other applications and jump quickly in this interface. When multiple applications are running at the same time, the preview of the last application will be displayed in the lower left corner of the homepage. Click it to switch quickly, and the switching process is quite smooth without overload and delay.

Card demonstration of all background tasks

Click on the left in the lower left corner to display all background tasks in the form of cards. While maintaining the current application in the background, other background applications will be listed, and you can switch between all applications running in the background. Bian Xiao chose the video playback process to switch during the test, so it is conceivable that video processing will inevitably consume more hardware. Even so, there is still no delay, and there will be no delay after returning to the playback interface. This is the background mechanism of webOS, which is called true background by netizens. It is more powerful than choosing to continue playing and then reloading, and the user experience is better.

▲ Seriously, webOS is the originator of card operation.

Another advantage of card operation is that both iOS and WP adopt this method for the management of multiple background tasks, which also shows the Excellence of this method from the side. It can quickly close the application or switch without entering the application. With a good background mechanism, Bian Xiao opened five or six background applications without getting stuck, which was quite refreshing. Compared with webOS on the mobile phone, it has better performance.

Through good optimization, in addition to simple switching, two intimate designs of simple connection and simple discovery are also made for the TV platform. When the TV platform is turned on for the first time, an "adzuki bean" animation will appear for auxiliary setting, which can quickly complete the whole setting process, and at the same time, it can intelligently identify the access of external devices and signals, and prompt applications to connect devices or play signal content.

▲ The boot setting process has detailed assistance, which can be used even if you don't understand electronic products.

▲ Connect the HDMI 1 port, prompting to play the content immediately.

Simple discovery is also a function of great practical value. On the premise of keeping the current program playing, you can read other contents of the pop-up part, thus ensuring the continuity of watching the program. You can also quickly jump to today's function to view the hot content of the day.

▲ If the program continues to play, you can quickly preview the hot spots of the day.

After a while, it can be said that webOS has really improved in LG's hands, with better interface, refreshing operating experience, faster response and more perfect background experience. It can be said that LG has made great efforts in the optimization of webOS, which makes users very comfortable.

Multi-detail optimization and further progress of webOS system experience;

Not only the card operation, but also other details, such as various animations of the system, look quite pleasing to the eye and keep smooth. For example, it can be said that the system completion of this TV is quite high, the simple application is comfortable and simple, and the advanced application is powerful and meticulous. This is the so-called kitchen under the hall ~

What impressed me most was the image quality guide in the settings menu. This TV itself uses IPS hard screen, which not only has light time, but also has good visual performance, including color, dynamic contrast and clarity. But LG seems to be not only satisfied with this, but also put an option in the settings, allowing users to adjust themselves.

▲ The picture quality wizard allows users to adjust the picture performance step by step, even small white users can get started.

In fact, without this program adjustment, the default value of this TV was accurate enough at the beginning, and now this function is still retained, probably because the effect of each screen is different, in order to facilitate users to fine-tune their own settings, or to meet different visual experience orientations of different users. During the entire image quality adjustment wizard, you can change various parameters including black and white level, hue, color and sharpness. It can be said that the whole TV picture can be completely controlled by users, which is very good and powerful ~

▲LG Store is not only an application, but also shows live TV and TV programs.

LG store is a store specially prepared by LG for this TV. Applications not only contain application information, but also change with the update of video source content. It looks quite high, with regular sorting. The only depressing thing is that webOS has just set sail as a smart TV system, and the number of applications is a bit small. However, for TV, these are very common applications, and I believe LG will continue to enrich the types of applications.

It can be seen that the whole system is not only excellent in the core part, but also very attentive in every detail. It can not only watch at ordinary times, but also do really intelligent things with smart TV, which is a great progress compared with the current smart TV market with the theme of Android system.

Total score of intelligent items: ★★★★ (out of five stars, ☆ half a star).

4K Extreme Image Quality Analysis:

The biological son must have an advantage, which has been reflected in the cooperation between Google and HTC, Samsung, LG and MOTO in mobile phones. Of course, on TV, LG also handles it like this. This TV adopts LG's 4K resolution panel, and it performs very well in all aspects.

First of all, let's briefly talk about the recent pseudo-4K problem. Many people are entangled in the 4K resolution forged by RGBW technology, but this TV definitely does not have this problem. After zooming in with a macro lens, you can see that there are no so-called white pixels.

▲ Macro real shot picture arrangement

IPS hard screen does have great advantages in image quality performance, which is well reflected in this TV. Excellent color, high definition, all the advantages mentioned above. Let's look at some real shots and feel it. Of course, due to the limitation of photographic equipment, I just feel it ~

At the same time, this TV adopts HEVC decoder, that is, H.265, which can replace H.264 as a new generation video compression standard. On the basis of the complexity of H.264 standard, the compression efficiency will be more than doubled. That is to say, for the same video, files using HEVC standard need less bandwidth, which can save a lot of costs, and at the same time, it will not damage the clarity and fluency of the video, that is, it will achieve a better cost performance between bandwidth and image quality. At the same time, the original H.264 decoded video can also be played smoothly on this TV, so users don't have to worry that the video with 4K resolution can't be played on TV due to the current lack of H.265 encoded video.

▲4K video playback display

This TV is also equipped with a 4K Ultra HD quality engine, which also optimizes the performance of 4K video playback, making it perform better when playing 4K video.

In terms of 3D playback, this TV adopts non-flash 3D technology, and the effective angle of 3D is wider than shutter 3D, and the brightness is also improved. Moreover, it is also very active to pray for people who watch for a long time, and the effect is good and it is not easy to get tired, ensuring health.

Rotating 3D glasses without losing any brightness also proves the advantages of non-flash 3D.

It can be said that in terms of picture quality, this TV is also the ultimate, which not only proves that the children are still good, but also proves LG's strength in producing high-quality panels.

Image quality rating: ★★★★★★ (out of five stars, ☆ half a star)

Appreciation of the appearance of China characteristic ship base;

Finally, let's look at the appearance. In a word, China's characteristics, individuality and classicality coexist.

▲LG Guanyun 55UB8800-CE TV front appearance

At first glance, the most impressive thing is definitely the base of this ship, which was designed by LG to fit the appearance of China elements. Through the oval design of the bottom surface, the contact area between the bottom surface and the supporting surface is quite large, thus bringing good stability.

▲ Side appearance display

From the side, I feel that this TV is still very slim, and it must have considerable advantages in the home environment.

▲ border display

In line with the current mainstream, this TV has also designed an ultra-narrow bezel, which is well hidden when it is closed, and the feeling of integration is quite good ~

▲ base display

This angle can better see the design concept of the base, the arc design gives people a very smooth feeling, and the overall shape of the canoe looks beautiful, and the most important thing is that it is stable enough!

▲ Remote display

▲ Remote control side arc display

Finally, let's look at the remote control. This dynamic remote control feels great and is ergonomically designed. The wheel in the direction key is brighter, which can be used as a confirmation key when pressed at ordinary times, and can be used as a wheel to browse files or web pages conveniently, thus reducing the trouble of misoperation. In actual use, the main manipulation is still somatosensory. The somatosensory mouse is often awakened by default, and its accuracy and fluency are very good. It is not a meaningless decoration, which can improve the effectiveness of operation.

▲ 3d glasses that come with it.

LG sent four such glasses to each TV this time. Thanks to the greater effective angle of non-flash 3D, it is also possible for a family to watch 3D movies together. Moreover, compared with shutter 3D, non-flash 3D glasses can be made thinner and lighter, and there is no pressure to wear.

Appearance score: ★★★☆ (out of five stars, half stars)

To sum up, this TV can be said to make webOS return perfectly, and the background mechanism and response speed are more perfect. IPS hard screen ensures the foundation of a good visual experience. HEVC decoder and 4K ultra-high-definition image quality engine Pro enable it to handle all kinds of ultra-high-definition videos well at the software level, plus a comfortable user experience and a good appearance. As a TV, this GuanYun 55UB8800-CE is undoubtedly successful.
