LG QNED85T (2024)
Built-in far-field microphone
UnverifiedWhether this model has a built-in microphone (beyond the remote) hasn't been confirmed from a citable source yet.
LG's US specifications have no Hands-free Voice Control row. They list "Always Ready: Yes", "Intelligent Voice Recognition: Yes", "Amazon Alexa (Built-in): Yes (Built-in)" and "Magic Remote Control: Included", which don't say whether the TV itself has a microphone.
Automatic content recognition (ACR), including over HDMI
Has ACRThis model has LG's ACR feature (branded "Live Plus"), which analyzes on-screen content — including over HDMI — to identify what's playing.
What ACR is and how to turn it off →
LG's 12 Sep 2026 statement covers LG smart TVs in general, not this model. It says ACR is optional, turned off by default, and only runs once you accept LG's Viewing Information Agreement; you can withdraw or turn it off in the TV's settings.
Ads in the TV's own menus
Can turn offwebOS shows ads in its own menus. There are settings to turn them off, listed below.
LG's manual describes advertisements on the Home screen and a switch to turn them on or off.
Scans your local network for other devices
Scans LANLG says this TV looks for compatible devices on your home network, for features like connecting to them, and doesn't describe a setting that turns this off. To keep it away from your other devices, you can put the TV on a separate guest network.
How to put a TV on its own network →
LG says its smart TVs use device discovery to find compatible devices on your home network, such as set-top boxes, games consoles and smart home devices, and that this information isn't used for advertising (statement, 12 Sep 2026). LG doesn't describe a setting that turns it off. A 2026 Gamers Nexus test on an LG G3 found the TV repeatedly contacting other devices on the network even with no agreements accepted. Whether the list of devices is sent to LG hasn't been shown publicly.

What that actually means for your TV →
LG's US support page for the 65QNED85TUA lists software version 33.31.75, dated 14 Sep 2026 (the first listed file is dated 24 Jul 2024). The product page says "Enjoy up to 5 years of software updates with webOS Re:New"; that is a ceiling, not a promised minimum.
ACR settings: webOS 24
- Live Plus
Settings → General → System → Additional Settings → Live PlusTurn it off to stop Live Plus (LG's ACR feature).
LG's manual site has a broken HTTPS certificate, so the link uses plain HTTP.
- Viewing Information agreement
Settings → All Settings → Support → Privacy & Terms → User AgreementsUntick Viewing Information to withdraw the consent that ACR needs. LG says ACR only runs once this agreement is accepted.
LG's manuals give the User Agreements location. LG's published agreements name it "ACR and Viewing Information Agreement" in the US and "Viewing Information Agreement" in the UK; LG says only the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy are required for smart services, so leave those two alone.
Agreements and toggles can be reset by a software update, so check again after your TV updates.
Ad settings: webOS 24
- Home PromotionTurns these ads off
Settings → All Settings → General → System → Additional Settings → Home Settings → Home PromotionTurns off the advertisements on the Home screen.
The webOS 24 manual also says you can display or hide "Sponsored" advertisements and content recommendation categories in the Home menu. LG's manual is hosted on a site with a broken HTTPS certificate, so the link uses plain HTTP. If your TV has been updated to a newer webOS version, its menus may follow that version's layout instead.
