This 2024 QNED merges quantum dots with Mini-LED dimming zones, reaching 3,000 nits in peak HDR moments. Two HDMI 2.1 ports hit 4K@120Hz with VRR, but the other two cap out at 4K@60Hz — plan your source placement wisely. eARC runs on one input for lossless audio return to a soundbar. For the 2.1 ports, use Ultra High Speed HDMI cables — standard cables top out at 18Gbps. Here's every port and the cables you'll need.
2024 LG QNED80 with α5 AI Processor Gen7, 120Hz native, edge-lit (not Mini LED). Mid-range QNED.
