Okay, let's talk about this absolute unit of a TV. When I first unboxed the LG 86UQ7590, I literally gasped. 86 inches is NO JOKE—it dominates my living room wall like a modern art installation. The picture quality? Stunning. The a7 Gen5 AI Processor makes colors pop like I'm seeing them for the first time.

But here's the thing... that remote? It's like LG gave a toddler a button factory and said 'go wild.' So many unnecessary buttons! And sometimes it just... forgets to work? Customer service sent a replacement, same issue. Minor annoyance, but when the screen looks this good, I'll deal.

Gaming on this beast is next-level though. The Game Optimizer feature is chef's kiss—everything runs buttery smooth at 120Hz. Sports look incredible too... until they don't. Noticed some weird motion judder during football games that no amount of tweaking could fully fix.

Biggest surprise? The built-in speakers are actually decent! Not 'replace your soundbar' good, but way better than expected for such a thin TV.

Final verdict: If you want an affordable giant screen for streaming and casual gaming, this delivers. Just don't expect OLED-level perfection—and maybe buy an extra remote just in case.
