LG's B6 OLED offers the best picture quality you can buy today, at the best price yet.
Expert review by : David Katzmaier (cnet.com)
Although it's now been replaced by the 2017 versions, LG's 2016 B6 OLED TV remains a superb choice for high-end TV shoppers who need a new set now.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.

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.
Expert review by (cnet.com)
I expected the best picture quality ever, anchored by perfect black levels and viewing angles, along with expanded HDR compatibility for the widest access to the best video content available. I expected beautiful design and the thinnest panels around....
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.
Expert review by : Stephen (4k.com)
In 2016, LG has so far released four different OLED 4K TV models to the market and they can be divided into two broader categories: The G6/E6 Picture-on-Glass “top-shelf” TVs with their extremely unique design, and the more aesthetically conventional...
Extraordinary picture quality and color ; Stunning black levels and pixel-perfect dimming ; Amazing brightness by OLED standards ; HDR-compatible for HDR10 and Dolby Vision ; WebOS 3.0 is superb ; Incredible design
Peak brightness doesn’t match the best LCD capacity ; No 3D features ; Sluggish input lag for games in particular
LG’s B6 is just about the best 4K OLED TV we’ve yet seen if all factors INCLUDING price are weighed together. The flagship LG 2016 G6 and the second-tier E6 models are superior performers by slight margin and offer truly stunning new physical designs...

The 4k LG OLED B6 TV provides an excellent picture quality, with an infinite contrast ratio and great motion handling. It delivers great performance even when viewed from an angle, and is perfect for a home theatre setup. Unfortunately there is still...
Almost no motion blur in sports and video games ; Perfectly deep blacks provide an infinite contrast ratio ; Very good picture quality when viewed at an angle
Brightness depends on screen content due to Automatic Backlight Limiter (ABL) ; Displaying static images results in temporary image retention

All the steak of the flagship model without the sizzling price. OLED fans, rejoice!
Expert review by : Jonathan Knoder (toptenreviews.com)
You aren't going to find better picture quality than the LG OLED TVs. The OLED55B6P is an amazing TV. It looks great, it's incredibly thin, it has a great remote that is comfortable to use and it has an easy-to-navigate interface. This is definitely...
The picture quality is amazing.
It doesn't have 3D capabilities.
This OLED LED TV is less expensive than our top performer and boasts equally impressive picture quality. This is an excellent choice if you want to save a little money on an OLED TV.

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'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...
