- The set -up consists of QNED9M, QNED93, QNED87, QNED85 & QNED82
- Prices take a direct shot at Samsung’s Neo QLED ranking with some cheaper than rivals
Prices for most of LG’s 2025 QND TVs, the company’s equivalent with Samsung’s Neo QLED (mini-led) TVs, are now out in the wild.
The 2025 QN area consists of QNED9M, QNED93, QNED87, QNED85 and QNED82.
From the QNED85 up, the TVs use a mini-led backlight that offers improved black levels and higher brightness over standard LEDs.
Prices and info for each model are divided below with each model set for release in May. Some retailers like John Lewis, Peter Tyson and Currys are showing different models as available now.
No British prices have yet been revealed for the flagship wireless LG QNED9M, but it’s available for $ 1,799 for the 65-inch model, $ 2,299 for the 75-inch model and $ 3,499 for the 86-inch model in the United States.
LG QND 93
LG QNED93 is available in 55, 65, 75 and 85 inch sizes, and the pricing is as follows:
- LG 55-inch QNED93: £ 1,299
- LG 65-inch QNED93: £ 1,799
- LG 75-inch QNED93: £ 2,699
- LG 85-inch QNED93: £ 3,799
QNED93 comes with LG’s Alpha 8 AI processor Gen 2, the same used in LG B4 OLED TV, one of the best OLED TVs on the market.
It supports Dolby Vision HDR and Dolby Atmos. For games there is support for 4K 144Hz, Dolby Vision Gaming, VRR (AMD FreeSync Premium), Hgig and Alm. This list of features is what we expect to see from the best game -TVs.
It also uses a mini-joint with precision attenuation project and dynamic QND Color Pro for improved local attenuation and color display.
LG QNED87
LG QNED87 is available in 43, 50, 55, 65 and 75-inch sizes and prices for each size are as follows:
- LG 43-inch QNED87: £ 699
- LG 50-inch QNED87: £ 949
- LG 55-inch QNED87: £ 1,099
- LG 65-inch QNED87: £ 1,399
- LG 75-inch QNED87: £ 2,099
QNED87 uses the same Alpha 8 AI processor Gen 2 as QNED93. It also uses a mini-led backlight, but instead has dynamic QND color rather than the Pro version on QNED93.
It supports Dolby Vision HDR and Dolby Atmos, and again there are 4K 144Hz (120Hz in the 55-inch model), VRR (AMD FREESYNC Premium included), HGIG, Alm and Dolby Vision Gaming.
LG QNED85
QNED85 is available in 55, 65, 75 and 86 inch sizes. Prices for this TV are as follows:
- LG 55-inch QNED85: £ 1,099
- LG 65-inch QNED85: £ 1,399
- LG 75-inch QNED85: £ 2,099
- LG 86-inch QNED85: £ 2,899
QNED85 will also use the ALPHA 8 AI processor Gen 2, the same as QNED87 and QNED93. It also has QND dynamic color.
QNED85 will support Dolby Vision HDR and Dolby Atmos and come with similar game features such as multiple Premium QND models such as 4K 144Hz (up to 120Hz in 55-inch) vrr (AMD FreeSync included), HGIG, Alm and Dolby Vision Gaming.
LG QNED82
LG QNED82 will be available in 43, 50, 55, 65, 75 and 86 inch sizes. Pricing is as follows (as stated on currys):
- LG 43-inch QNED82: £ 599
- LG 50-inch QNED82: £ 749
- LG 55-inch QNED82: £ 799
- LG 86-inch QNED82: £ 2,699
The most entry level set in the QND setup will QNED82 use Step-Down Alpha 7 AI processor. Although there is no clear indication of what panel-type QNED82 has, it does not have a mini-led backlight. However, it supports dynamic QLED color.
There is no Dolby Vision HDR support listed, with the TV limited to HDR10 and HLG HDR. For games, the update rate is limited to 60Hz, but there is still support for VRR, Alm and HGIG.
All of these sets will include WebOS 25 with its long list of AI tools, including AI CONCIERGE (a content recommendation tool based on viewing history), AI-voice ID (for personalized profiles) and AI Personalized audio guide (which allows users to create their own audio profile using pre-recorded audio bites to choose their preference).
We reviewed webos 25 very high in our LG G5 and LG C5 OLED TV Reviews. It turned out to be user-friendly, intuitive and responsive, with the new AI tools a welcome addition
All TVs also come with the latest Magic Remote, which introduces the Home Hub and AI buttons in favor of the Input Select button.
Samsung, pay attention
While the battle for the title of the best mini-led TVs is always a warmly disputed match between Samsung, Hisense and TCL, LG seems to have taken the match directly to Samsung.
The best example of this is that LG QNED93, listed for £ 1,299 for its 55-inch model, is £ 100 cheaper than Samsung QN80F’s 55-inch model. On paper, these two sets are similar, both using mini-led backlights and carrying a stack of game features. QN80F supports HDR10+, while QNED93 supports Dolby Vision – a regular difference between Samsung and LG.
While LG has released other QND -TVs for the past few years, it seems to have gone all with features and technology. I saw QNED93 personally next to his predecessor and was happy with the upgrade in image quality and performance.
We are still waiting for prices on the flagship QNED9M, the first TV using the LG Zero Connect box (an external box that houses connections such as HDMI and transmits signal to the TV wirelessly) outside the LG M OLED. It will be interesting to see if these prices compete with the flagship Samsung QN90F, which randomly does not use the wireless Connect box.
LG’s QND series seems to take the fight to Samsung’s Neo QLED ranking, which is a similar history of pricing in the United States. We haven’t tested any of LG’s QND rows or Samsung’s Neo QLED series yet, but look forward to comparing the two.
