The LG NANO75 is a lower-midrange priced LCD TV that is much less expensive and performs well for sports content, has good viewing angles, and works better in bright rooms compared to its counterpart. However, its picture quality in dark rooms is not as strong. On the other hand, the LG A1 is an upper midrange priced OLED TV that typically costs more but offers superior picture quality overall, especially for movies and in dark rooms due to perfect blacks. It also has better sound quality, supports a wider range of HDR formats like Dolby Vision, and has a more uniform screen. Though, it is not as bright as the NANO75, which can be a disadvantage in well-lit environments. Choose the NANO75 for a budget-friendly option with decent performance, especially in bright rooms. Opt for the A1 if you prioritize top-notch picture quality and viewing in darker environments, and are willing to invest more. Give Feedback
