In the test, the author first adjusts the TV to the standard image mode, the backlight is adjusted to the brightest, other parameters are default, and the product is tested and scored in five aspects. The result is that we do The five-dimensional performance chart is shown above.
Evaluation results as shown above, in the color adjustment, micro whale 4K smart TV color gamut as high as 88.39%, high color gamut performance undoubtedly derived from its use of LG original IPS hard screen. In terms of brightness, because 4K panels will reduce the panel transmittance, some manufacturers will use RGBW four-color pseudo 4K panels to increase the panel transmittance, micro whale TV did not do so, and the average brightness has reached a considerable 314.89cd/ M2.

â— Little whale TV color performance test
The first test is the TV's power consumption performance. By playing different color photos, the power consumption value of the TV is recorded. From the above table, it can be seen that the micro-whale TV performance in the 55-inch 4K TV is still quite good.
From the perspective of the color transition, the color transition is also very harmonious and natural. From the pixel point of view, the whale TV used by MICRO is actually an IPS hard screen provided by LG. This matches the information provided by the official website. Through the color analysis equipment test, the coordinate values ​​of the three primary colors red, green, and blue are measured. The color gamut value reached 88.39% NTSC, which is the middle-upper level in the same product.
In the color consistency test, the color reproduction ability of the micro-whale TV is still good, and the result of the machine judgment is qualified. I believe this also depends on the color reproduction ability of the IPS hard screen. Overall consistency performed well.
In the silk standard test screen, the color reproduction ability of the micro-whale TV is very good, and the color gradient and the over-naturalness are different, and the different shades of the same color can be well distinguished.
In the standard test of the yarn ball, it is mainly the presence or absence of the bond area between the ball of wool during the observation period. From the figure, there is a little sticky area in the ball of the red powder yarn in the lower right corner, but there is no color cast, and the overall performance is a lever. drop!
The expression of people's skin color is also quite capable of embodying TV's ability to express colors. The yellow and white people holding a three-colored rose have very good color reproduction and rose color reproduction. The three-colored rose is colorful and the entire screen does not appear reddish or Whitening phenomenon.

The picture is clear and detailed, and the white in different gray levels is well distinguished and expressed.
Grayscale performance, from the test screen, the difference between the grayscale performance is good, but there is no clear boundary between the 0 ~ 2 order, of course, this is a common problem with this price panel.
When the surrounding environment is completely black, when the TV screen is turned to black, the degree of light leakage is directly observed with the naked eye. This is the most direct judgement of the excellent calibration of the TV panel. Under the black circumstances, the performance of the micro-whale TV is not very pure, but the degree of light leakage It is lighter and evenly distributed, and it does not interfere with the detail display of shadows.
The black and white background image of the standard test disc, the two ladies wearing a satin dress are difficult to distinguish from the background; the Tokyo Tower part, the darkness of the middle billboard is clearly distinguished; the carbon block part, the dark part of the left side details Well kept.
