LG OLED55B6P Review

[@aospkitkat4446]

Fantastic! Thanks for going over what it looks like with 4K movie footage. Much appreciated.

[@DanHughesNC]

Great review man. Thanks for taking the time to make it.

[@khobia2]

Very comprehensive review. Thanks for the post.

[@Get7Out7ofthe7Boat]

Yes Neo, the NSA does indeed want to watch you watching TV in your underwear. That's one of the major drawbacks to this technology from my perspective. Total loss of privacy and being under constant surveillance even in your own home. I'd figure out where the camera is and cover it up first thing. I am interested in this TV and enjoyed your extensive review. I have seen the price for the LG OLED55B6P going for under $1700.00 dollars on Amazon. I even saw a few other online stores for under $1500.00 so the price is falling.

[@mohrds]

You have had this tv for almost a year now (assuming you have not changed it). Have you had any issues? Burn-in? Or any tips for a new user? I just bought this yesterday "dirt cheap" from my local electronic shops last stock. Anything we new OLED users should know or be careful with?

[@Raiders-wm5kb]

I still have my Plasma PN51E8000. Do you think I should I replace with this?

[@marketweis]

Thanks for the review. Has there ever been a time when you were hoping to get more brightness or more "pop" out of the picture? I've had my eye on these sets as the holy grail of current TV's, but I see some reviews that complain about not being able to get enough brightness out of it.

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

The only time was watching the first episode of season 2 of "The Man in the High Castle", but I'm pretty sure that was the fault of the source material, not the TV. I haven't had any other issues where I thought it needed to be brighter.

[@hugoribeiro6791]

Hi. How are you? Thanks for your video. Between this and the Samsung KS9000 what will be your choice? Do you have burn in problems? How its the brightness?

[@brandonfrench8465]

Hugo Ribeiro get the samsung ks 9800. its multizone backlite and has alsmost the same blacks as oleds. and its cheaper than oleds. im getting the samsung ks8500 but if i had the money id get the samsung ks9800.

[@hicksdillon]

it is size vs picture quality. If you you want a better picture and the 10 inch size difference does not bother you, then go with the LG. OLEDs are superior and brightness won't be an issue.

[@ArchieTheDude]

Great video! question for you, I can get my hands on a brand new LG C8 55" for under $1800 OR I could get a 65" B6 like yours new in the box and everything for about $2,100, what should I do?

[@Pepperowni]

hey, great review thanks for that. I'm curious though, will this tv make 1080p content even better (or at least not worse) or is it only recommended if you stick to 4k content?

[@yeagernick]

The TV should upscale most content that's < 4k. So if your source is 1080p it'll be upscaled and it should look even better; it definitely won't look worse.

[@Pepperowni]

allright man. What about SD stuff? Is it watchable? I know it's silly to even ask for SD quality on such a television but i'm watching like 90% amazon/netflix and 10% SD television.

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

In my experience, everything looks better. You don't have to watch just 4K content. The contrast alone makes everything look better. It does upscale lower resolution content, but it won't make 1080p look like native 4K. But it won't look bad either.

[@flynncrawford1960]

I have the same tv and I have the Samsung Ultra HD 4K bluray player. The best 4K bluray I have seen for picture quality is Planet Earth 2 . It is done in 16 by 9 so there are no bars. It really shows what the OLED tv is capable of.

[@tayebhamdi3712]

[@joelombardi4907]

Nice review. I wanted to know how the TV handles a hi-def cable pic. Any high end 4K Ultra HD TV will look great with 4K material (UHD Blu-rays, 4K streaming, etc.). How well does this TV upscale a 720P or 1080i cable broadcast? I ordered one during the recent black Friday deals. With the prices coming down big time, I couldn't help myself.

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

I cut the cable years ago, and just stream and watch Blu Rays. One thing I can say is that as with much high end gear, the television will faithfully display the content. If the content is good, the TV will display it well. If the content is garbage, the TV will display the garbage. Low Def does look good on this TV, though, if it was recorded well. But you can tell if the show you are watching used cheap equipment. So far this is rare in my experience. The main thing is if a show used a camera that didn't handle dark scenes well, it will show.

[@thefowlyetti2]

What DLNA server do you use? The Plex app is available for this TV btw

[@wolffefamily]

So no judder on HDR content blurray like AV Forum says is a big problem?

[@kiranmudumbi455]

Great review ! .. one quick question what is your take on C6 model ? I like the B6 model and I am not a fan of 3D but for the same price I am getting 3D option with curved.

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

If you don't have 3D movies now, I don't see a benefit of the C6. On a tv this small (compared to a theater screen) the 3D effect won't be that great unless you sit close. As far as the curve goes, I don't like curved screens. It's a marketing gimmick that hopefully dies off soon.

[@kiranmudumbi455]

Family White TV Thanks!! Appreciate the response. I ended up buying B6, I am not much into curved screen 3D is the only reason I thought of C6 but you'e spot on it will not be that effective. Best buy played 3D video on 55" E6 and it looked awesome but again we are standing close not sure of the same effect when sitting far from the screen.

[@luckymckay]

kiran mudumbi I had same dilemma and went with the c6. The best buy demo of 3d was what sold my wife and I on the c6 over the b6. I went in 100% sure I was buying the b6 since I never watch 3d movies, but that demo sold me. With that said, I haven't watched any 3d movies in the week I've had it lol.

[@thancooper03]

grats! and thanks for the vids, i'm looking at getting this one now, how do you feel about it after having it for a while?

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

Still very happy with it! But now that I have my theater room back, I prefer watching movies in there even though this TV beats the image quality in the theater in every respect (other than the fact that the screen in my theater has a 130 inch diagonal...)

[@thancooper03]

Family White TV nice, thx for the reply!

[@Armfan99]

Man i wish i could afford this lol, maybe next year.

[@JulioCesarDeSalvo]

how is the 1080i cable upscaling? i'm coming from a 46 samsung serie 7000 from 2013, should i keep mine? thanks!

[@luislara9297]

Nice TV, i'm really interested to buy this, Sorry but, How Far the size of 55'' inches is well appreciated ?

[@dandrydog]

Thanks, dude. I've only watched 5 minutes so far but this is a great video

[@Blingnjkbling]

Dammit I want this tv but 55inches seems kinda small. The 65inch would be too expensive for me right now. So I'm trying to decide between this 55 OLED or getting a larger 65inch Samsung KS8000. Decisions Decisions.

[@juandoe7802]

Blingnjkbling what did you decide, and why that specific Samsung?

[@vadimkrylov]

I" in the same boat. Over oled or Sony 65xd93

[@lll_SET_lll]

I'm from Russia. also I think it's better OLED 55 B6 or 60KS8000. what you chose. thank you

[@mvp_tv5837]

Very informative review great job!!!

[@Mr_Spock512]

Excellent review ... well done!

[@Madden70]

Thanks for the good video, looking at the 65". Lot of money, but video might have put me over in purchasing it.

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

It's a great TV, I don't think you'll be disappointed. Just be sure to have help to get it out of the box!

[@Hristov-ji6uw]

Please answer when you use it as PC monitor is there big input lag on the mouse?

[@cakartvelo]

Nice TV and the review man!

[@jschrager23]

great review! I am between this TV and the samsung ks8000. Pricewise the samsung is a much better deal but doesnt have those amazing blacks

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

Best you can do is see if you can view them both in a Best Buy and see which you prefer. Might be hard to tell that way, though. Ideally you would want them side by side and would play identical material on both. Some stores will allow you to buy both and will take back the "loser", but make sure they won't charge a huge restocking fee if you do that.

[@bradpatridge7280]

Did you decide yet? I am trying to decide between the LG B6 55" and the Samsung ks8000 65". I want the OLED TV but i would be able to get the Samsung for cheaper, even with a 10" bigger display.

[@jmen8888]

The 65" of this tv is on sale right now for $2,999. OLED is the best picture, amazing. I can't get one yet, but my next tv will definitely be LG OLED.

[@bradpatridge7280]

jmen8888 I ordered one the day I saw it drop down to 3000. It's still a bit spendy but I could justify it since it's the top of the line TV. 4000 was a bit much for me though.

[@jmen8888]

I got into the hd tv's back in 2005 when Sony had their SXRD technology out. I waited for the 1080p version to become available, and then Black Friday sale, the price went from $2,800, to $2,000, no interest for 24 months at Circuit City. I got one, loved it, I knew I had to change the bulb in about two years, then my friend said to me your screen is green a little. After checking out the internet, found out about the class action lawsuit against Sony. The choice was a 40" Sony for free or a 55" for $300. Since I had a 50" at the time, I got the 55", that was Oct. 2011. When I checked the price of that 55" tv on Best Buy's website at the time, it was going for $1,800. I have it today and it works fine so I will wait a few more years unless it breaks, cause my wife doesn't want me spending that kind of cash over two years again for another tv that I don't really need, but I just want one cause they are awesome looking. Enjoy your new TV when you get it!

[@MandalorianFanboy]

There is a daily deal on Ebay right now for this model at $1499 Think I shall buy it.

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

Buyer beware, but best of luck. It's $1,600 on Amazon at this time, so just $100 more to get some peace of mind. Dang, I should have waited!

[@Val-vl3ug]

I have the 55inch e6 model love it

[@NightmareonAnyStreet_]

Same here I got the 55 e6 as well and it's godly

[@Darkntwisty88]

If you don't mind me asking, what pushed you towards the LG E6 over the lower end models C6/B6? Those are the models I find myself stuck between. Right now the price difference between them is about $500. In your opinion is the E6 worth that extra money?

[@NightmareonAnyStreet_]

Darkntwisty88 it all depends actually on what u feel is worth more or not. I mean the e6 and the c6 have lower input lag than the b6 and the b6 doesn't have 3d if you watch 3d and of course the c6 has the slight subtle curve which I'm not sure you like. As far as pq between the whole line up they should be all equally the same given minor details that may be better on the more expensive sets

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

From what I understand, the advantages of the E6 is that it is 3D capable, has "picture on glass" meaning the picture appears on the surface rather than "behind" the glass, and has a nice integrated soundbar. If you don't have/don't want 3D movies, and already have a nice sound system, the E6 doesn't make much sense. I can't speak to the "picture on glass"... the E6 at the Best Buy I visited wasn't on for some reason.

[@pakurtz]

thanks for the review. plasma owner looking for a new 4k tv. I am on the fence with this model and the sony 930d 55".

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

This article may help: www.avsforum.com/lcd-wins-hdr-oled-wins-sdr-vote-in-uk-shootout/ The gist is that for HDR, seems LCD is the preferred display technology due to it's ability to display higher peak brightness than OLED. But for SDR, OLED is the winner due to it's incredible blacks.

[@redroosteralexander]

Can you demonstrate the picture quality with this connected to a PC? I want to buy this as a monitor but would like to see if the ABL is reasonable enough.

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

Here's a video where I measured gaming lag and motion blur hooked up to my laptop. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJmYp2mIacmqq9U When hooked to a PC, it looks great as long as you have your desktop at 4K. Games look great also if you have a video card that can push 4K at acceptable frame rates. (Games look great at 1080 also, though) Just be sure to turn your windows screen saver on if using this as a monitor. I doubt you would see burn in with regular use, but if you leave it on your desktop for hours and hours and hours with no screen saver active, you will probably suffer some.

[@redroosteralexander]

Yeah I own the the EG9100 OLED and it peaks at 89 nits at max white screen. Which makes the white level hella dim and very difficult to read web comics. The B6 peaks at 151 nits max full white screen and has way better white levels. I just saw a video of fellow B6 owner using the B6 as a monitor and from the looks of it looks pretty damn good! Yeah I know about the image retention. Plasma's have the same issue but OLED's handle it better.

[@metalcrip89]

great review brother i'd love to see somebody out there compare this set to the the vizio p series which i own because the black levels rivial this in my opinion

[@avilesjexiel]

mephisto1025 Every OLED tv has the best blacks.

[@gufiaito69able]

awesome vid thanks

[@PhatRemedy]

Hi, where does the P stands for or sometimes the V?

[@jermainephillips9726]

Curious to what are your thoughts between hdr10 streaming and Dolby vision streaming which is better? And is there any way for me to choose hdr10 streaming on the tv instead of Netflix defaulting to Dolby Vision?

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

The TV supports both formats. The format used depends entirely on what the source material was encoded with. To date, UHD-BD disks use HDR 10. However, there will be disks in the future that use Dolby Vision. Streaming services currently seem to be using Dolby Vision encoding. If the source material is encoded with Dolby Vision, there is no way to make it use HDR10. Which format is better? It's kinda a moot point unless they start releasing movies encoded with both formats. The main point is there are two formats, which one is used is up to the content provider, and the TV supports both.

[@jermainephillips9726]

Family White TV I just purchased a chromcast ultra through amazon today, so now I have the choice of which streaming content is better for hdr. I will check it out and let you know. Thanks for the info though. Oh yeah and good job on your tv review nice work!

[@TheSonataspring]

Hello ... can you help me please !!! :) I recently bought the LG B6 OLED and I noticed just in the right part almost at the end of the panel had a little more brightness than normal, the white is paler and in the colors something clear is noticeable, it will be a panel problem or It is normal" ?

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

I havent noticed anything like that. You may want to contact LG about the issue.

[@THELANKANCOMRADE]

Did you have any motion blur or judder when gaming ?

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

Not that I've noticed. Theoretically, OLED should be great for gaming in terms of response time.

[@xoom772x]

js8500 has good color wid gamut an 10 bit 4k tv good for hdr with update

[@coreysolomon2818]

I'm getting this tv soon have you experience burn ins with this TV?

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

I have not. You really have to abuse the TV to get burn-in, and even then it usually goes away from what I've heard. Abuse like in connect it to a computer with no screen saver enabled and leave it on the Windows desktop for a day without doing anything.

[@MakaveliSoulja1]

What are your settings for best picture quality on your tv?

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

I haven't actually run a calibration on it. Theres probably somebody on the AVSforum who has done so and has posted settings: www.avsforum.com/forum/40-oled-technology-flat-panels-general/2426314-2016-lg-c6-b6-owners-thread.html

[@jmen8888]

Question. How difficult is it to clean the screen since it is so thin? Thank you.

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

It's not hard to clean, unless you're like me and want to make sure every streak is gone. But as far as the physics of cleaning it, the screen is a fairly robust pane of glass, so it cleans just as easily as glass.

[@jmen8888]

Thanks. I was wondering if you had to put your other hand behind for support as you cleaned the screen. I am the same way, don't want any streaks.

[@wizemonk4925]

like he said screen burn no longer an issue simply go into that settings he mentioned click it and tv will clean screen while you are sleeping or when tvs offer also its has little things built in like any thing on screen for long tis me like say life bar in game tv with slighty move it so it wont s worth burn in lg have done fantastic job i have tv and im blown away by the picture its stunning best you can biy see i had every tv lcd led and could allways see back light bleed or blacks were greyish this here no backlight blacks are inky black as if tv is off playing ps4 with hdr update will make your eyes bleed with the beauty of it lol not kidding im playing uncharted collection i spend most time stopping and looking at game its hard to belive so something up yes this tv is mega expension but my god it worth every bit burn in not issue simply set it clean the screen when tv is off and your be ok this tv will shock you at its picture beauty 10 out 10

[@Aaron-zl5gq]

can you comment on Image retention? I keep hearing all these good things about this TV, but a lot of people ignore the fact that the tv has image retention problems and imo is unacceptable for the cost of this thing.

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

Look for the 32:27 minute mark where I talk about image retention: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r5y4Y5VvotWhfskm27s This TV is not a snowflake. You really have to abuse it to get image retention. The majority of people who say they did have image retention said it completely went away in a short amount of time. The TV has a built-in "clear panel noise" (image retention) function. It also has a built-in screen saver in case you forget to turn it off. If you use it as a monitor, you just need to remember to enable your screen saver. If you leave it on a Windows desktop for 8 hours, you may get image retention, but it can be fixed. So far, I haven't noticed any image retention.

[@Aaron-zl5gq]

I appreciate you commenting back, it sounds like there is really nothing to worry. Thanks again and also what a great review, i am not sure how i missed that last part when you pretty much answered my question

[@benixp]

is it worth bro whats a picture quality

[@knutmagnegursli1941]

Do you notice any auto brightness dimming while gaming?

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

Sometimes when I had my desktop on it I noticed a change in brightness, but never while playing a game.

[@David12005]

Thanks - excellent .

[@mephisto1025]

My only question can it pair with any smart phone AN mirror content ?

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

I have an Android (Galaxy S7), and it does work with mine. I can't imagine it wouldn't work with Apple. Not sure about Windows phone, though.

[@gkmackey]

Is the frame/plastic case Black in color? Big thanks

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

The back of the case is grey. You can see what the case back looks like in my wall mounting video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bH2WY3R4lKhpm8k

[@gkmackey]

Thanks!

[@petekroner5622]

What do next years models look like...anything new for 2017?

[@sexydanny21awesome]

The next step is 20/20 colour space 4k OLEDS. This TV cover P3 colour space the next step in TV tech will be 20/20 colour space.

[@THELANKANCOMRADE]

sexydanny21awesome how different is 20/20 compared to p3 ?? I thought this TV has dolbyvision or something that can go up to 12 bits

[@sexydanny21awesome]

***** Yeah Dolby Vision is amazing but 20/20 colour is even more amazing. 20/20 colour space is like almost double the colours of P3. They call it 20/20 colour space because it reaches almost as much colour as human eye can see. Dolby refers more to HDR specs though so thats a different colour space. Just think of it this way Dolby HDR is best HDR and 20/20 colour space is top colour space where P3 is the standard Ultra HD colour space now.

[@sexydanny21awesome]

This TV has support for Dolby Vision players in the future it also can stream 4k Dolby movies on Netflix making one best TVS out there you can actually buy. There is only one Dolby Vision player released so far and It's the Panasonic 4k Blu-Ray player however it does cost 799 dollars which kinda insane in price but the TV also supports HDR 10. However there has been no Dolby Vision 4k Blu-Ray discs released as of yet so you will have wait to see Dolby Vision on 4k Blu-Ray discs. You will be able to stream 4k Dolby Vision on Netflix though which way better than normal 4k Netflix. Think about it like this a normal 4k stream takes 25 MPS where a Dolby HDR 4k Netflix stream takes 35 MPS because It's way better. So the streaming on Netflix thing is really the reason buy this TV over the other TVs.

[@dynamitekid8967]

sexydanny21awesome there are 4K Dolby Vision blu ray disc already. Their 50th. title is already released. Thanks and have a nice day!

[@Greg29]

What is the bright large pinkish light at the bottom of the screen?

[@Morten.Bremvåg]

Reflection of a light in the room I would assume.

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

It's a lamp I had positioned to illuminate me during the review.

[@Greg29]

Ah ok thanks for the reply.

[@latination2013]

what back light? there's no back light on oled tv's

[@hittahitta819]

Where are u downloading your 4k media from?

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

The Martian I have on UHD Blu Ray. Other than that, Netflix or KZbin.

[@hittahitta819]

So the digital copy the comes with a Blu ray is 4k quality?

[@hittahitta819]

And u can load it to an external hard drive?

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

No, UHD Blu Ray is a new standard. You need a UHD Blu Ray player to play UHD Blu Rays.

[@harshtoskar3061]

how much price

[@darksamus6738]

Is it good for Gaming ?

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

Let me put it this way. I really wish somebody offered a reasonably priced OLED computer monitor. The only possible downside for gaming is you might get burn in if you play the same game non-stop for a really really long time. But if you have normal TV viewing inbetween, you shouldn't have any issues.

[@Redemption1123]

For me it was between this and the ks8000 I went with the Samsung because I needed that low input lag because I like to game quite a bit

[@neil9658]

How do you like the Samsung? are you happy w your decision?

[@aaronhernandez2836]

apparently the Samsung ks8000 and ks 8500 series has back issues look it up, big reason i will be getting this OLED instead.

[@avilesjexiel]

MR FOOK and CHILL Vizios have the best input lag.

[@SteveGuerra]

Yes! I bought one yesterday and returned it after 2 hours. backlight bloom all around the panel. Bothersome to say the least.

[@TheSterlingArcher16]

Since the beginning of January there is an update for the B6 that brings input lag to 28ms compared to 20ms on the KS8000, both of which are quite good.

[@a-dutch-z7351]

Black dots matter.

[@sexydanny21awesome]

It actually turns itself off to create black just like a plasma.

[@lemaitrethemonk]

I get the statement Dutch. Nice review Family White TV...

[@Checkmate24mm]

Can you download third party applications?

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

I don't believe so. Just what is available through the LG content store. Apps are free, although some require service fees (NetFlix, Hulu, etc.)

[@wizemonk4925]

oh to the person asking iv seen no juder are motion blur while gaming its silky smooth

[@IsaacSerious]

That is good to know. I plan on buying one this holiday and I will be watching a lot of sports on this but primarily I am a gamer so I really don't want to sacrafice too much in that category.

[@avilesjexiel]

AiRJaYzGo They aren't great for gaming because of their input lag.

[@IsaacSerious]

Jexiel Aviles Understood but currently using a discontinued TCL 4K which even on Game Mode the Input lag is shitty so it should be better than what I'm already used to. Lol

[@avilesjexiel]

AiRJaYzGo I have a vizio for that reason lol.

[@2Eld0rADo]

at 2:31 stuff seems to lag or stutter is that normal

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

I haven't noticed anything like that in direct viewing. It could be an issue with the frame rate of the camera I used not being synced with the frame rate of the TV. Or a streaming issue with KZbin.

[@natsidrukdruk]

And what are the downsides of this thing? There must be something?

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

The biggest downside (other than it cost more than "regular" TVs) is that it does not output as high a peak brightness as the high-end LCD competitors. In general, people prefer OLED for viewing SDR (standard dynamic range) content, but prefer LCD when viewing HDR content. Since 99.9% of what I watch is SDR, for now this TV is the best choice in my opinion. But if you have the cash to purchase a bunch of 4K UHD Blu-Rays, a high end LCD may be the better choice.

[@natsidrukdruk]

Family White TV i think the hdr is Good for this tv. Can you play mkv files from the USB port?

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

Yes, the TV plays MKV via the USB port and even over the network. One thing I do wish it had, however, is a built-in SD card reader.

[@emersongarcia2179]

qled is better than oled when watching porn

[@talespin23]

im going to get the c7 or e7 in november.

[@skaramagskaramag4052]

I buy this tv, everything its perfect, but the tv don't have android Tv SO, so if you want download google apps to the tv is imposible. I have to use the cellphone and share the screen. I wish have the posibilite to change the os system.

[@khaibui3575]

does it has android built in?

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

It is LG's "WebOS 3.0" that is running the TV. But you can download via their app store an app for the TV that will interface with Android smart phones, if that's what you're asking. I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 (Android), and I can play stuff on the TV just fine.

[@winterkks]

wow...~* excellent†

[@N-e.o]

the only points not reviewed here (and most important) are upscaling from normal TV channels!!!!!! (1080i / 720p/ 480p) and motion behaviour in ultra fast movies like (Fast & the furious for example) i had the 55UH8500 top of the line LCD from LG last year and the motion interpolation was behaving like crazy when i watched Fast and the Furious (streaming from my Laptop to the tv in HD quality) whole cars disappeared for a split second or are no longer even resembled as cars for that split second lol, weird shit.. this was in the opening scene of the movie.. I want to buy the B6 so badly but I will not spend 2500 euros if the motion is compete shit!

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

When you mean "streaming from my Laptop", do you mean a Blu-Ray, a Blu-Ray 1:1 rip, a torrented version, or streaming off Netflix/Hulu/etc.? Most streams from the internet are not going to handle motion well no matter what TV you have. The bitrate is just not high enough. If it is a torrented version, the same issue applies - motion is always going to suffer with low bitrates. If it was from a Blu-Ray, or a 1:1 rip of a Blu Ray, then it could be a setting in the TV itself. LG's "TrueMotion" (Frame Interpolation) is a prime suspect if the source material is known to be good. Frame Interpolation works well for slow pans, but in really fast motion the algorithm can get confused and put out messy results. In the video I did on motion blur (or lack thereof), you can see how the TV reacts: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJmYp2mIacmqq9U In that video I was playing a game from my laptop rendered at 1080. The game was running at lower graphics setting (due to limitations of my laptop), but you can judge for yourself how the TV handles motion. The short version is there is zero motion blur on the TV.

[@N-e.o]

yeah exactly i meant "Frame Interpolation" it was like the tv couldnt estimate were the cars were in the next time frame and outputting weird artifact as results...i was streaming from popcorntime i believe (so torrented version) even though it wasnt full hd but the movie overall was super clear most of the time ..

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

Ok, yes, Frame Interpolation is the culprit. Even on really high-end frame interpolation systems, it can easily get confused. Some people like it, some people don't. With it on, some people describe the effect as a "soap opera effect" where everything looks hyper-realistic. With it off, there is the traditional motion blur we have been dealing with since the beginning of TV. And so until we start getting more HFR - High Frame Rate - source material, we will either have to live with the traditional motion blur, or we will have to live with the artifacts that Frame Interpolation can create. At any rate, the OLED television itself has essentially instant response time, whereas any LCD or LED backlit LCD panel will have a slower response time which can result in ghosting. (I'm talking about pixel off/on response time, not input lag) If you can pick up a 2016 model, I don't think you will be disappointed. If you can afford the premium of the 2017 model, you will get better dark details and higher peak brightness.

the 55B6 dropped in price today bigtime, i can get one for 1,895euro! also i read on avforums that LG will be updating and fixing most of the issues soon, like the motion issues i mentioned, other minor bugs and lowering inputlag even more. fingers crossed! i will be picking up this tv as soon as i can now, 1,895 euro is allot less than 2,500euro and less stressfull lol

[@aronboele6556]

PlaystationQUAD-Pro yeah, this Guy hits the spot! show some regular 1080p/i tv channels, Everyday use! my conclusion is a missing detail between dark and White. its either black or its White. detail is missing in darker scenes, lots of shadows. oled is Just not ready yet....gimme some nits!!!!

[@ajsingh99]

Bought this OLED TV, gave it back after a week. Blacks are superb but every thing else is sub par. Colors, brightness, motion, cable tv upscaling all not great at all. If you don't watch TV in a dark room don't buy this tv.

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

Was that just on Cable TV? For Blu Ray, UHD BD, and streaming, the TV looks great. Other TVs now look washed out in comparison. Cable TV is notorious for being way too highly compressed.

[@JCTiggs1]

Family White TV Seems DarthVader123 is confused, the darkside has ruined his vision?

[@Deivy_84]

Oled is not a new display sony started to do oled tvs many years ago

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

Yes, Sony did market an 11" OLED TV that cost something in the neighborhood of $10,000. But OLED is new in the sense that we are finally seeing it priced at a level that puts it within reach of the mass market, and not just a handful of early adopters with money to burn. And we are seeing it as a technology that is maturing into a well thought out application of technology. It's not just OLED, but it also has all the smart functions one would expect from a high-end television.

[@Blingnjkbling]

Wow 10 grand for an 11inch TV? that's just insane lol

[@Deivy_84]

Blingnjkbling yeah 10 for that small size but they did it first. Love sony products

[@Mr.77776]

Anyone experiencing motion problems on these Oleds?

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

Try disabling "True Motion". It's buried in the display settings somewhere. It's a frame interpolation algorithm that smooths out motion, but can get confused in certain situations, resulting in some funky artifacts.

[@Mr.77776]

Thanks! I'll give it a shot.

[@coreysolomon2818]

ok thanks.

[@Coollsmalls4kTechArtist]

why will u spend 2000 for 4k tv lg. when u can get for 500 or low.

[@jbsocal101]

[@jamaicaboy544]

CooL L Smalls Bro i was thinking the same you can get a just as good 4k uhdr tv for less than a third of the price this guys clueless

[@kyelko]

[@wizemonk4925]

dis agree sorry but ypur soooooo wrong i own this tv with ps4 and ps4 pro i thrown every game at it its silky smooth and responsive if your an ultra hard core multi player i must best every one even half mila second counts then any tv you buy wnt be good enough

[@ShubhamKumar-ud8id]

India use dish channel he is connected her

[@DDDE44]

Forgot to say that there is no gray Only black It's bad

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

I've been watching Dick Van Dyke (a black and white sitcom) on Netflix lately. The grays show up just fine.

[@DDDE44]

NO Very well known in OLED worse gray IN LG OLED

[@xoom772x]

[@aundralambert3783]

4k HDR players and 4k HDR movies are a joke. 4k hdr player cost $400 and 4k hdr movies cost$25 or $30 that's crazy. keep your blue ray player and movies. you can't even see the differences between the two. blue ray movies on this tv is amazing.

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

I got it more for the HDR than for 4K. I've only seen The Martian so far in HDR, but I think HDR is where it's at. 4K is secondary, in my opinion.

[@andrewcobra2000]

Don't use this OLED TV as computer screen !!! you will regret

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

You should see my "Gaming Burn In" video. After having a static image displayed for 3 hours, no hint of burn-in. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZbRaJqXerdohrM

[@andrewcobra2000]

You won't get burn in from playing video games on it but you will get from windows home screen and desktop background. I have AMOLED display on my Galaxy S7 and clock that is display all the time on the screen moves all the time so doesn't burn in.

[@sexydanny21awesome]

Yes it is possible to get a burn in on OLED but it is less likely than a Plasma TV. OLED TVS have a different problem that is mostly banding issues however on the 2016 models this happens way less than the 2015 models. But OLED is still best TV tech because they do not get screen bleeding.

[@Bendova215]

just bought the ks8500 OLED is over priced just how 3d us to be

[@JCTiggs1]

16 blocks OLED isn't overpriced at all. You get what you pay for, and the 55" LG OLED B6 is only $400 more than the KS8000 where I live. Well worth it. Personally I can't stand the poor viewing angles of LCD panels, along with the ghosting with fast motion while gaming.. and average black levels.

[@DDDE44]

Photos dark looks very bad Only black no gray very bad Photos in OLED grayness Not bright

[@FamilyHomeTheater]

Don't critically judge a televisions picture quality based on what you see in a KZbin video. You're limited by both my camera's capture capability and your monitor's own accuracy. I'm giving you my impressions. If you want to see what it really looks like, you'll just have to find one in an electronics store and see it for yourself.
