LG's 65-inch E7 OLED TV.

We've all walked past those gorgeous multi-thousand dollar TVs at our local electronics store that make our own sets at home look old and dated.

The outrageous picture quality, all the acronyms like 4K, HDR, and OLED, the insanely thin borders around the screen. Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have one of those super-pricey TVs in your home?

I asked LG for a review unit of its $4,000 65-inch E7 OLED TV so I could experience what it's like to own one of those eye-watering sets, and the company obliged. It didn't take long to appreciate the E7's giant 65-inch screen, its sharp 4K resolution, and the gorgeous, inky colors that only an OLED display can deliver. Poor me and my tech reviewer life.

But don't be too jealous. I had to return the glorious gadget to LG after just a month. And now that I've returned to my modest life as a mere mortal with a much smaller, cheaper, and less capable HD TV, I'm kind of in withdrawals. Indeed, poor me and my tech reviewer life.

A quick note: It's incredibly difficult to take good photos of a TV screen. The E7's screen looks better in real life than in any of the photos below.
