The LG UR9000 is often significantly more expensive than the TCL S470G but offers a better overall viewing experience for sports content and has a higher build quality. The TCL S470G is a budget-friendly choice with somewhat lower performance, especially in bright rooms. The LG has a slightly better picture quality overall compared to the TCL, while gaming performance is more favorable on the LG as well. If you're on a tight budget and need a TV that supports a wider range of HDR formats like Dolby Vision and HLG, the TCL S470G would be the choice to consider. However, for a generally better viewing and gaming experience and higher quality construction, the LG UR9000 would be the way to go, if you're willing to pay more. Give Feedback

The LG UR9000 (LCD) and TCL S470G (LCD) are both only fair for sports, though the LG UR9000 (LCD) is somewhat better.
The LG UR9000 is fair at watching sports because while it has a faster response time, which is crucial for smooth motion, it struggles with reflections and has limited viewing angles. The TCL S470G is on par with its performance due to its mediocre motion handling but shares similar issues with reflection handling and viewing angles, although it does slightly better in terms of gray uniformity.

The LG UR9000 (LCD) and TCL S470G (LCD) are both poor for gaming.
The LG UR9000 and TCL S470G are both marked as poor for gaming due to their response time being rated as fair and poor, respectively, which may result in motion blur during fast-paced games. Furthermore, they both share the same 'best' input lag score; however, as they are LCD TVs with a 60Hz refresh rate, they lack higher refresh rates that benefit more competitive gaming scenarios.

The LG UR9000 (LCD) and TCL S470G (LCD) are both poor for cartoons & animation.
The LG UR9000 is rated as having poor color gamut, which may lead to less vibrant and diverse colors when watching cartoons and animation, impacting the viewing experience. Meanwhile, the TCL S470G, despite having a good color gamut, still falls short in delivering the optimal color palette for such content possibly due to its colors out of the box not being as accurate or appealing.

The LG UR9000 (LCD) and TCL S470G (LCD) are both poor for news, talk, & other TV.
The LG UR9000 has fair SDR brightness and poor colors out of the box, making it less suitable for watching news or talk shows as it won't present these types of content as vibrant or clear. The TCL S470G, on the other hand, suffers from poor SDR brightness and lacks effective local dimming, leading to a dimmer display that may struggle to produce deep blacks and thus impact the viewing experience for similar content.

The LG UR9000 (LCD) and TCL S470G (LCD) are both poor for bright room.
The LG UR9000 struggles in bright rooms due to its fair SDR brightness and reflections handling, making it less suitable for daytime viewing especially in well-lit environments. On the other hand, the TCL S470G also performs poorly in bright conditions, but to a greater extent because of its low SDR and HDR brightness along with fair performance in handling reflections, resulting in a subpar viewing experience when ambient light is present.

About LG
LG, a prominent TV brand from Korea, has played a significant role in popularizing OLED TVs. OLED technology is hailed as the future of TV technology. Their TVs employ WebOS, a proprietary smart TV software that not only offers seamless functionality but also includes gaming-specific features, earning praise from players worldwide. Often regarded as the gateway to unparalleled viewing experiences, LG's mid-range OLEDs come highly recommended, making them a worthwhile investment for those willing to stretch their budget for superior quality.
About TCL
TCL, the highly recognizable TV brand from China, has firmly established itself as the second-largest manufacturer in terms of sales volume. Renowned for striking an impressive balance between affordability, picture quality, and design, TCL TVs deliver a compelling overall package. While they have traditionally excelled in the low-end and midrange TV segments, TCL has recently made remarkable strides in the realm of high-end televisions, introducing impressive models that rival top competitors. Most TCL TVs use Roku software which is very user friendly and easy to use, but they have a few other models that use Google TV which has the largest app selection, but is not as user friendly as Roku.
