LG OLED55B6

Those pesky folk at LG sure are making us wait for the brand's 2016 OLED TV range. We've been itching to get our hands and eyes on one of these new sets ever since they blew away the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas in January, but still...

LG OLED55B6V review

LG's cheapest 4K OLED TV ever. Nuff said.

Often stunning picture quality ; Jaw-droppingly slim design ; Great smart TV system ; Affordable by OLED standards

Weak sound quality ; Clipping in bright areas ; Expensive by LCD standards ; Some motion issues

As the cheapest model in LG's 2016 4K OLED TV range, the £2,300 OLED55B6 lacks the build quality and design prowess of its more expensive siblings. Its sound is relatively flimsy, too. But crucially it still retains the same excellent smart TV system...

LG OLED55B6V review

(Rating Hidden)

Touted as the technology giving the best possible picture quality, this LG boasts an OLED screen. In theory, that should mean smooth motion, deep blacks and vibrant colours. But the LG OLED55B6V will need to match that with great sound and an easy to...

LG B6 (OLED55B6V) UHD 4K TV Review

The B6 is LG's entry-level flat screen OLED TV with Ultra HD 4K, HDR, Dolby Vision and WebOS but how does it compare to the rest of their line-up?

Impressive black levels ; Superb dynamic range ; Accurate greyscale and colour gamut ; Excellent video processing ; Wide viewing angles ; Supports Dolby Vision ; WebOS is highly effective

Stutter with HDR content ; Macro blocking on some material ; CMS can cause artefacts ; No game mode for HDR

The LG B6 is an impressive Ultra HD 4K TV that demonstrates all the advantages of OLED technology with deep blacks and excellent contrast ratios. The out-of-the-box performance was very good wth an accurate greyscale and colour gamut that approached...

LG B6 OLED TV review: An older OLED is still great

Although it's now been replaced by the 2017 versions, LG's 2016 B6 OLED TV remains a superb choice for high-end TV shoppers who need a new set now.

With the exception of new 2017 OLED TVs, the LG B6 has the best video quality we've ever tested. It evinced perfect black levels, wide viewing angles, accurate color and a brighter picture than last year. It's compatible with both types of HDR TV shows...

It's still expensive.

LG's high-end 2016 OLED TVs deliver picture quality that's almost as good as the world-beating 2017 versions, and the B6 is currently a better value.

LG OLED55B6P

The OLEDB6P is LG's most affordable 4K HDR OLED TV series yet, and offers the superlative performance you can only get with an OLED panel.

Fantastic picture. Perfect black levels. HDR with wide color gamut.

WebOS is a bit light on apps. Fairly expensive.

LG has made another incredible television thanks to OLED technology. The perfect blacks and wide range of colors the panel can produce give the OLEDB6P series one of the best pictures available to consumers. OLED still carries a hefty premium, but the...

The LG B6 outperforms every other TV we've tested, with the exception of even more-expensive 2016 OLED TVs, which perform about the same. It evinced perfect black levels, wide viewing angles, accurate color and a brighter picture than last year. It's...

It's expensive.

LG's high-end 2016 OLED TVs deliver the best picture quality of any TV we've ever reviewed, and the B6 is the best value of the bunch.
