LG's new OLED TVs

[Robert Zohn]

Correct, ^^ nice sale that ends on July 2nd.

[PRO-630HD]

I doubt that. I am sure the sale will go thru July 9 since it is a 4th of July sale.

[Robert Zohn]

Wish you were right, but LG says differently. We're factory direct authorized dealers and LG gives all authorized dealers a "Roadmap" of future promotions so we can plan our advertising. This is exactly what is listed on LG authorized dealer promotional roadmap. The same ends on July 2nd.

Here's ABT's listing of the 65" B6 at $4,499 listing it as a sale that ends on 7/2/16.

LG funds the promotion for sales from today through 7/02/16 and I hope to see LG extend this deal or offer it again.

Are most reviews so far agreeing that the B model is slightly superior in PQ than the other 2016 models?

From what I hear they are all the same.


The only difference though, is that light output seems to vary from panel to panel rather than model to model.

So for example, Oled Light at 100 (max) might be more or less bright from one panel to another even within the same model?

Aside from that one review I saw where he claimed the e and g were brighter. I think everyone else is saying that they are the same.

Well the E and G are part of the Signature series. I would expect them to out-perform the more economical models somewhat

That's what I expected too. But seems like everyone is saying that they are all even. So I am finding it very hard to justify the price difference between the B/C and the E/G. Don't get me wrong, I love the picture on glass thing but I'd rather use that extra money on getting a 4k player.

Agree on that. I can skip the extra "fluff" for what really matters at the end of the day.
What about the same old complaints with tinting, banding, and vignetting? Are those issues been fixed or is it something that still varies from one panel to another?

Hope there will be some special promos going on for 4th of July...I have my eyes on either the C or G model

[vinnie97]

The G is the only one that is part of the Signature line, which is of questionable value, IMO (after having owned one).

The LG OLEDs are really good, but the E6 and G6 suffer from two different issues if I remember right. G6 has the massive price tag and E6 can't have that soundbar removed. I do think next years models will be even better and hopefully have all the issues addressed with what's going on still and further improve many of the aspects they're strong on. Hope HDR division between HDR-10 and Dolby Vision is solved but nice to see LG supporting both from this year.

Personally think the 2017 models onwards is where I'll find a justifiable reason to upgrade but think I'm going to hold off until PS5 releases for proper 4K gaming and UHDs are cheaper and more in abundance.

I'm still waiting a few years. Prices gotta drop and some of the probs have to be fixed.

Are you referring to the G not properly outputting HDR?

I thought the banding/tinting/vignetting issues had been solved with the new line

From what I've read, they've been reduced but are still present. Maybe down the line they'll further iron these issues out

If they are no longer noticeable in regular content then it's fine with me. Didn't buy this to stare at a solid white or black screen all day

No...HDR is a no man's land right now with the competing standards and buggy implementations. All the 2016 OLEDs are subject to the HDR early adopter woes.

Some say it's negligible and depends on whether you know what to look for. Me personally, I'd rather see them completely eliminated before I jump in and 2018 onwards and certainly for a PS5 release seems right
