If you're focused on saving money and can live with decent picture quality for everyday watching, the LG NANO75 could be a fine choice for your needs. However, if you're willing to invest more for higher picture quality, especially for watching movies and playing games, the LG NANO90 will deliver a better overall experience. The NANO90 offers advantages like improved contrast and brightness, which help in a bright room, and more advanced gaming features such as high refresh rates, which make a noticeable difference in action-packed scenes and gameplay. Keep in mind though that the improved performance of the NANO90 comes at a higher cost compared to the NANO75. Give Feedback

The LG NANO90 (LCD) is very good for gaming, while the LG NANO75 (LCD) is poor.
The LG NANO90 has a higher refresh rate and significantly better input lag, which results in smoother gameplay and quicker response to input, key for competitive gaming. Conversely, the LG NANO75 has a lower refresh rate and worse input lag, resulting in less fluid motion and slower response times not ideal for fast-paced games.

The LG NANO90 (LCD) is only fair for bright room, while the LG NANO75 (LCD) is poor.
The LG NANO75 struggles in bright rooms mainly due to its poor SDR and HDR brightness, making it difficult to overcome glare and maintain vivid picture quality, while its good reflection handling is not enough to counterbalance the brightness issue. Conversely, the LG NANO90 performs somewhat better in these environments thanks to its higher SDR and HDR brightness, coupled with very good reflection handling, which together mitigate the impact of ambient light on the viewing experience.

The LG NANO90 (LCD) and LG NANO75 (LCD) are both poor for movies & TV.
The LG NANO75 and LG NANO90 are both not ideal for watching movies and cinematic TV because they have limited contrast, poor black uniformity, and lack effective local dimming which are crucial for deep dark scenes and good picture quality in darker environments. Additionally, while the LG NANO90 has slightly better contrast than the LG NANO75, both TVs struggle with maintaining consistent color and brightness across different viewing angles, which affects the overall viewing experience.

The LG NANO90 (LCD) and LG NANO75 (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
Both the LG NANO75 and LG NANO90 have fair motion processing capabilities, but the NANO90 outperforms the NANO75 in response time, which is very important for watching sports. The NANO90 has better handling of reflections, which is crucial in bright rooms, and both TVs offer comparable viewing angles and gray uniformity, making them similarly capable in a general viewing environment.

The LG NANO75 (LCD) and LG NANO90 (LCD) are both poor for cartoons & animation.
The LG NANO75 has better colors out of the box, which is important for watching cartoons and animation, but it has a poor color volume, which affects how rich and vivid the colors appear. On the other hand, the LG NANO90 is rated poorly for colors out of the box, meaning the initial color settings may not be ideal for cartoons and animation, and it also has a fair color volume, which is somewhat better than the NANO75 but still may not provide the most vibrant colors for animated content.
