43UN81006LB vs 43UN71006LB - Chroma 4:4:4 ?

Looking for a smallish 4k TV as a monitor, as I've posted before. Was hoping to get a curved screen, but they are getting quite rare now. 40" would be ideal, but 43" will do at a push.

On a "best TV as a monitor" review list, the 43UN71006LB popped up, and I was surprised to see its so cheap, about £350.
Then I noticed the 43UN81006LB was only £20 more

BUT, while I can find really good reviewes of the older set, the newer one seems to have gone under the radar - so I cannot see if it has the same features for PC mode - ie Chroma 4:4:4

Would anyone know?

I've asked LG, but am awaiting their response.

Ended up buying the 43UN7300 - For £350 its cheap enough to try out, and sell on if its no good.

Or even just upgrade one of the bedroom tellies

It looks like a really good option at that price. Hopefully you’ll be able to update the post with info on the setup and how well it’s working once it arrives.
