LG OLED65GXPUA OLED Ultra HDTV Review Settings
Unit-to-unit sample variations, the viewing environment, and the source might render these recommendations less than optimum. They're only provided here as a potentially useful starting place.
The settings here that are most likely to translate reliably from one sample to another are those involving specific features with only a few selections, such as Gamma and Noise Reduction. The ones most likely to be subject to sample variations are video controls offering a wide range of adjustment, such as white balance (grayscale) and color management. Even relatively small differences in the common control settings, such as Contrast, Brightness (which is actually Black level), and Gamma, can shift the white balance, though the resulting visible change may be minor. Production tolerances can do the same.
We strongly recommend that you find the optimum basic video settings for your sample by using one of the many available 2K/SDR setup discs, such as the Disney "WOW" or the Spears and Munsil High Definition Benchmark. These will help you set the basic controls correctly, such as Brightness (Black level), Contrast, Sharpness, Color, and Tint. Experimenting with the more complex color calibration and other controls in the user menus will do no harm; the changes may be easily reset. But adjusting these by eye is unlikely to produce an accurate result and is no substitute for a full calibration. The latter is best left to a trained and properly equipped technician such as those certified by the Imaging Science Foundation (ISF).
