LG 55EG960V

After waiting for what feels like decades for the first 4K OLED TV to arrive, we're now faced with our second one in as many weeks. What's more, the 55EG960V is substantially more affordable than the previously tested 65EC970V, so if it turns out to be...

Gorgeous, contrast-rich pictures ; Stunning super-slim design ; Slick webOS 2.0 operating system

Occasional colour flaws ; Needs great care with set up ; Doesn't yet support HDR, and will probably never support HDR via UHD Blu-ray

LG 65EG960T 4K OLED review

LG's 4K OLED is sensational

Brilliant colours ; Infinite contrast ratio ; Superb motion ; 4K ; OLED

Pricey ; Curved ; Few HDMI ports

In brightest day, in blackest night, no pixel shall escape your sight. Boasting both 4K resolution and OLED technology, LG's EG960T provides sensationally deep blacks and amazing colours. This is the current high-water mark in televisions.

Cancel summer – 4K Curved OLED is here.

Incredible realism ; Pure, bright whites ; Best black levels ever ; Reflection-free curve ; Now TV app

Pointer remote ; Plasticky stand ; Confusing WebOS ; High price ; Three HDMI

Is this is the best TV on the planet? Judged purely on picture quality, this 4K OLED has a jaw-dropping combination of total black, cracking colour, judder-free video, a reflection-free curve and an innate ability to make standard-def sources ripple...

LG 55EG960V 4K OLED TV review: Setting the standard

It's been a long and winding road for OLED TVs. The display technology, which promises deeper blacks and richer colours than LED-backlit LCD tellies, started its consumer TV life in 2013 with the LG 55EM970V. Problem is, that telly cost £10,000. We're...

Excellent black levels, 4K picture quality clarity, great webOS 2.0 interface, remote's pointer operation

Colours can look off, auto brightness can falter, still expensive, only three HDMI ports

So is the LG EG960V's OLED panel better than an equivalent flagship LCD? For black levels, absolutely, it's as good as things get. For colour, it's a bit mixed – it loses some of the realism for the sake of saturation. That might be an odd compromise,...

LG EG9600 series review

If you've ever seen an OLED TV, it should come as no surprise that LG's EG9600 is the best-performing television I've ever tested. I called its predecessor -- the 55EC9300 , the first OLED TV I reviewed -- the "best TV ever" last year. The new, more...

The LG EG9600 OLED TV's picture betters that of any LCD or plasma TV we've seen, with perfect black levels and exceedingly bright whites. It's equally adept in bright and dark rooms, showed accurate color, excellent uniformity and solid video...

The EG9600 is more expensive than pretty much any other TV of its size. Its video processing, screen uniformity and color accuracy aren't quite as impressive as the best TVs. The curved screen introduces some artifacts, and 3D is finicky. The TV lacks...

The incredibly expensive OLED-powered LG EG9600 series delivers the best picture quality we've ever tested.

LG EG9600 (4K OLED) review

EG960 is a 4K OLED TV with HDR support from LG. It is the first of its kind and we have high expectations. So can LG deliver? Find out

Reference picture quality ; Perfect black ; Wide viewing angles ; Best HDR picture right now ; webOS is simple & functional

Banding on darkest tones ; Motion resolution can be improved ; Curved ; Input lag too high ; Risk of burn-in

LG 55EG960V (EG960) Ultra HD 4K OLED TV Review

LG finally release an Ultra HD 4K OLED TV in the UK but was the 55EG960V worth the wait? You bet it was!

Absolute blacks ; Superb dynamic range ; Remarkable contrast ratio ; Reference greyscale and colour accuracy ; Excellent video processing ; Great design and build quality ; Impressive smart platform ; Highly effective remote ; Very good sound

No HDR support ; Colour space could be wider ; Connections too close to edge ; Input lag high for serious gamers
