Regarding compatibility with a 4K TV, I can only speak about my experience with my large QLED samsung TV. I had trouble with dark scenes looking good through this player, even after using the Disney blu ray calibration disc. Otherwise, Ready Player One 4k looks great. Guardians of the Galaxy blu ray is superb. Star Wars Episode V DVD upscales very, very nicely. But every dark scene in my setup just looks so muted.
This player seemed to do fine with sending Atmos and 5.1 surround sound tracks to my sound system, so no complaints from my ears, but perhaps there is more out there.
I suspect this player with some TVs will simply be spectacular. With others, maybe not so great. At a price of about $100 (I paid a little over this), it can get you going.
I have owned mine for roughly one year, and I have concluded I need to try another player. The mid range Panasonic just went on sale, so I will try that one. I will have to update my review in a month or so with comparison notes.

Update
I stand by my statement that this is an excellent starting 4K disc player, and still think this will perform awesome with some TVs.
I will now compare to the Panasonic UB820. The Panasonic wins on HDR features. Easily adjusts my picture brightness, noticeably so, and that made me super happy (see above comments).
The LG wins on audio setup with my equipment, using a Samsung atmos soundbar and no receiver. The less expensive LG for whatever reason could pass atmos and picture flawlessly through the ARC and back. With the Panasonic, I went through many iterations of setup before compromising on optical audio between the QLED TV and soundbar & having confirmed atmos on a direct HDMI from the disc player to the soundbar. I had to have atmos from the discs, and having the picture and sound together is just so enjoyable. 5.1 Dolby digital from other sources (Roku, antenna, gaming) was acceptable to me.
Netflix is available on both disc players and both have better Netflix picture and audio than through my Roku Premiere (all equally connected by ethernet), but my Roku remains my go-to streamer.
The player does not have any sort of screen saver, so if you walk out of the room with a disc on pause, the picture will still be there no matter how long you’re gone from the room. This could be a problem with some TVs. It also has no memory - I had to go through the menu every time I returned to the disc after turning the machine off (watching a multipart series). It did recover after a power glitch, however.
Nothing special about the remote, it is not very ‘intuitive’, doesn’t have a great feel, and it needs to be aimed directly at the player. The TV controls at the bottom do work with my LG TV with no additional setup which is convenient.
In the setup, I turned on the English subtitles. I’m not sure what this was supposed to accomplish as I have had to turn them on for every disc I have watched. Oh, and the background screen is amazingly bright white, which will light up the room and get your attention if nothing else if you have a larger TV, especially in a darkened room.
Overall, it’s does what it’s supposed to do, it plays discs, and does a good job of it. Just make sure your discs are clean as the player is very unforgiving of the tiniest smudge and will hang/skip when it finds one on the disc, and if you pop the disc out to clean it - you get to find you place by going through the setup and menu… again.
The remote just sucks, the fast forward and reverse buttons are surrounded by the next / last chapter buttons. I bought on sale and I wish I hadn't.
