4K UHD Commercial TV Picture Quality
The 50NU85C delivers a 3,840 × 2,160 picture with four times the pixels of Full HD. LG’s processor boosts content towards its original quality, and 4K Super Upscaling enhances resolution, brightness and clarity. For guests, that means sharper images on a 50 inch screen, even when the content they are watching was not made in 4K.
LG 50NU85C hotel TV key features
- Resolution: 3,840 × 2,160 (4K Ultra HD) – four times the pixels of Full HD for a sharp picture.
- Google Cast – lets people cast apps from a phone to the TV.

Who the LG 50NU85C suits
The LG 50NU85C suits hotels, motels, serviced apartments and resorts that want a 50 inch 4K UHD TV with guest-friendly casting and Netflix. At 50 inches it suits guest rooms, suites and small communal spaces. LG Shield adds a layered security system, which is useful when many TVs share a property network.
It also suits commercial spaces such as bars, waiting rooms and staff areas where a smart TV with commercial-grade management is a better fit than a consumer TV.
What to check before buying the LG 50NU85C

- Mounting and stand: confirm the mounting method, bracket or stand with us before ordering.

- Quantity and size: if you are fitting out many rooms, tell us the room sizes and viewing distance. We will compare the 50 inch with other sizes and brands honestly.
AirPlay and Chromecast Built In
Guests can cast apps from an iPhone or Android device straight to the TV, because Apple AirPlay and Chromecast are built in. That lets people watch their own content on the room screen without logging into apps on the TV. For accommodation providers, it covers both Apple and Android guests with one TV.
Netflix for Hotel Guests
Netflix is available on the NU85C series, adding thousands of selections to the room. For accommodation providers, offering a familiar streaming service is a simple way to meet guest expectations, and it adds value to the stay without needing a separate streaming device in every room.
LG Shield Security for Connected TVs
LG Shield goes beyond security at the operating system level. It uses a five-tier defence covering server, application, operating system, system and hardware, and each layer operates independently. For hotels and businesses with connected TVs on the network, that layered protection helps defend against a range of threats.
Conformal Coating for Salt and Humidity
Hotel and resort TVs cannot avoid exposure to salt, dust, iron powder and humidity, which can affect performance over time. Selective conformal coating on the power board helps protect against these. That supports reliable operation in coastal properties and humid or dusty locations, where TVs often age faster.
