I am a working class person and I could afford this as could most of my working class friends. I almost certainly wouldn't want to spend my money in this way, but that is a question of personal choices and has little to do with my "class"

I'm very short sighted so bought this. Absolute bargain at £269.99. I almost bought another one for the bedroom.

I helped make these possible! In 1999 I worked with industry on my degree thesis on how we could get OLEDs to produce the colour green.

Just be aware this and the 960 do suffer with banding

As an example

HDR too, looking at reviews it's not perfect tho. Kind of needs to be to justify spending this much.

This is an absolute bargain....i paid 3.5k for mine 6 months ago and its fantastic...mine is a very good panel...but others have had problems

I'm jealous! Enjoy your telly! But there's no way on earth I could justify 3.5k on a telly

Hot but at this price would you start considering a 55" 2016 model... decisions, decisions lol.

Uncommon Sense to pops1975

9 Aug 16 1 #8

They are completely different sizes, one is over 1800sq inches the other is only 1290 ish. If you are looking at a 65" you're not going to compromise for a 55". I am aware of how much better the 2016 panels are, and if you are already spending this much, and want the best quality, spending the extra should be easily justified. :smiley:

djlondon22 to pops1975

9 Aug 16 2 #12

I have the 55 inch version and do sometime wish I had the extra 10 inches.... (here come the funny responses, bring em on!)

pops1975

9 Aug 16 #9

Lol, you buying one then?

The price point is the same(ish), if I was buying I would consider whether a 55B6v offers significantly better image quality/colours over the EF950.

Everyone's preferences will vary - as with yours and mine.

Good deal - heat given.
But you'll probably get some clowns voting cold because they can get a 65 inch CCFL LCD "Digihome" for £269 instead...

ASD_NINJA to jonspurs

10 Aug 16 1 #44

Yep. That's definitely the only reason anyone would possibly cold this. Those pesky peasants. It couldn't possibly be due to the banding or judder issues this model is known for!

I own the 55" version of this and it's terrific.

Unfortunately though, it is incredibly susceptible to burn in/ghosting :disappointed: after two months of using it, watching a channel with a white logo in the top right for one-two hours a day and it appears to be there for good :disappointed: tried turning it off and not watching that channel for a few days/usual fixes documented.

Gutted.

I also own the 55" version of this TV and have never had any issues with image retention in the 10 months I have had it (and that's with my son having 4 hours stints on the Xbox playing Forza!). If you are getting severe image retention (there is no way it will be screen burn) then I would put in a call to an engineer.

In fact I have not had any of the issues reported (banding, vignette issues etc.). The TV does suffer if you feed it a poor source (some of the Sky channels are appalling).

Just drop onto AV forums when you get a chance and try to find any TV that is perfect, whether you spend £500 or £5000.

This is an excellent price (I paid £300 less for the 55") for this size screen using OLED technology.

Mate, how wrong you are, OLEDs are the ONLY models that support Dolby Vision 12bit HDR!

Mate, I believe you had picked up the 6.5" version :smirk:

Brabus_Duddy

10 Aug 16 #28

I believe this one doesn't support HDR 10 or Dolby Vision so for gaming, when a full 4K gaming machine comes out, this would not work under 4K HDR.
Nice TV though. OLED is far superior to LED.

10 Aug 16 1 #30

Good price but if you have a few thousand to throw at a TV then try and stretch to the B6 or E6 which are better than this.

Is ultra HD just 4K or is it HDR?

Bisham to Bigfootpete

10 Aug 16 #34

UHD and 4K are both terms used to describe the next generation of Ultra High Definition TV resolutions (also referred to sometimes as 2160P i.e. double the amount of horizontal pixels of the current HD resolution of 1080P)
HDR (High Dynamic Range..) is an additional feature of the UHD/4K standard that expands the colour gamut and contrast/brightness abilities of the TVs display panel, to help images look more realistic in tandem with the higher resolutions. Most 4K TV models 2015/2016 onwards should be HDR compatible but look for certification to confirm when buying.

mr_mojo_risin

10 Aug 16 3 #32

It always amazes me on here the amount of people that post comments when they have absolutely no idea what they are talking about....This tv has 3d, probably the best I've ever seen, including the cinema....hdr , this model does hdr 10 via hdmi and I believe by September on both amazon prime and netflix on-board apps.....mine has suffered absolutely no image retention or screen burn.....oh and banding on OLEDs describes panel banding not colour banding, ie darker bands on the screen which are evident on panning shots, football, golf etc.....my tv does not suffer from this, but some peoples have..

super_leeds_86

- This model DOES have HDR and it has support via both streaming and HDMI ports.

I own the 920v model, picked it up from Costco for a ridiculous £1400. My OLED replaced a Panasonic Plasma which at the time I was happy with but it had to go once I compared OLED with Plasma (Had the 50 Plasma and the 55 OLED side by side whilst testing video sources). No screen burn, no banding, 4 months of ownership. Give it a decent source of 1080p or 4k video and it eats it up and spits out a sublime image.

For information both this 950v and the 920v model supports HDR via a single HDMI port (HDMI Port number 2) and via streamed sources, a box appears in the top left of the screen saying it when a HDR video plays.

The 960v model is more complicated, it supports HDR video from streamed sources, but NOT via it's HDMI ports. This is one thing to be careful of, as I expect many people will be connecting devices via cable, just because it says 'HDR supported' it may mean via streaming.

I have the 55" 960V version, love the curve and the 3d is amazing.. I saw the flat and curved side by side in the shop and the curved version just looks so much nicer. Can't say I really notice it when watching TV.

Yea probably...just for comparison, my Hitachi (genuine, not the rebadged Argos stuff) 42" plasma cost £1800 around 7 years ago! A cheapie 42" probably can be had for £180 nowadays....
Bought from John Lewis for the 5 year guarantee...and is still going strong *touchwood*...the only thing to replace plasma with is OLED...I don't need this LG right now but soooo want it....ahhhhh HotUKDeals!!!

Haha fair enough Jack Bauer...(when are you going to have a new series?! Been watching you since season one!)...but just thought people vote hot/cold due to the deal/value...like saying you can get an AK-47 machine gun for £50 (rrp £500) is a hot deal...but then people vote cold because of the bad recoil :-P

Concur, have a 3D TV, didn't get it for the 3D, only watched 1 3D film on it, well part of one film to try it out. Adds nothing but more darkness and a headache. Interesting recent discovery on the curved TV front, I have just bought a 21:9 computer monitor, ultrawide as its known. Now, the format is awesome for movies, however it really could benefit from a wee curve given its width. If we see this format move to our TVs (for those with big living rooms) I could see a use for curved in this aspect ratio. 16:9 however....totally pointless.

10bit I'd say yes but dolby vision I'd say 'probably'. Reason why see this link:
http://hometheaterreview.com/dolby-vision-vs-hdr10-what-you-need-to-know/

For HDR It's all clear as mud across the industry to be honest, you have the likes of Samsung and Hisense promising firmware updates for HDMI ports but have updated apps built in that support HDR via streaming, such as Netflix. Good for streamers, bad for gamers. Then you have some TV's that just support it as they have the correct HDMI ports but their own built in apps need updating for streaming, such as LG did. Good for gamers with an Xbox One S but bad for streamers! The only 100% guaranteed way to have everything is to buy a high end 2017 model next May when they start to hit market!

Trying to find more than a handful of HDR video is the challenge, I hope that the new PS4 Neo (Not an Xbox player at all) is out this year and supports HDR games from early on.

Well early reports suggest they are going to surprise everyone and launch for Christmas 2016 which will kill Microsoft, Xbox gamer for life here but I don't do the trolling lol, so in a way I hope it is around same time as microsoft. Anyway about the HDR TV situation..........I see the OLED55E6V is what I would love. Has both HDR formats supported. Maybe not perfect but I am still waiting for it to come down as @ £3,500 it is very steep!
