Yes, heard that. Except for a few high end models made in Japan, I think the Sharp TV brand will die soon. Toshiba is actually a more reliant brand but they seem unable to keep up the pace with others. Have a few friends working for HSL and Best and they say that the fewest warranty claims are TVs from Toshiba whereas Samsung has the most. Yes, the quantities sold makes a lot of difference but they tell me that percentage wise, Toshiba is still the best of the lot.

Same with other equipment, Bosch is best with washing machines and fridges. One of the Bosch/Miele/Indesit technicians told me that in his 2 years with the company, he has never been called to repair a Bosch washer or fridge except for replacing the rubber seals which hardens with time and unavoidoable. Quality plays a big part and I don't mind paying for higher end models but never expected my OLED TV to die after less than 2 weeks.

My Bosch washing machine got repaired twice. After that I used Electrolux and got repaired once. Bosch was still on warranty on first failure. The problems are on electronics board. Now I'm on Panasonic and already 2 years with no problem.

My brother just bought the display set at Harvey Norman. Of course it was old model but you still get warranty. The unit was dead during warranty and since it has been discontinued, Harvey Norman pay back the purchase price and my brother just add a bit more to get new latest model. Not bad deal

Haiz. I got myself a Bosch washer and thankfully it is still working after 1+ year. Had a Miele before and that lasted me over 9 years without once breaking down (except to change the rubber seals). Ever wonder those breakages are due to our crappy electricity supply or just quality anomalies?

Thats very subjective though....the problem logged percentage should be be based on sales number rather than number of problem logged.

Samsung may had 10,000 sales a month with 100 problem unit, whereas Toshiba may had sold 100 units, with 10 problem units, hence quoting Toshiba has lesser returned unit is inaccurate

I did state percentage wise.

I have a LG B6 OLED tv and am wondering if other TV owners have had their set professionally calibrated?

While watching The Force Awakens on Bluray yesterday, I keep getting distracted by the grainy picture quality. It's not noticeable in every scene but it does get annoyingly distracting. I'm not sure if the issue is with my TV settings, or the fact that I'm playing it off a PS4 Pro, or my expectations were too high.

Seeking advice from folks if there's any way to reduce the grain.

Bro, what kind of grainy picture you are noticing? Can snap some photos for us to view them?
I'm also keen on the LG B6 OLED, but, recently, Sony has came out with Edge Local Dimming X93E/94E LED and reviews very promising.

Too bad, this Sony FALD X900E not available in Malaysia.

Doesn't sound right, take a pic please.

I watched TFA last month on the E6, while the movie is inherently a little bit grainy since it was shot on film, but it was never distracting.

Also, how many hours have you logged on your B6? All OLEDs need at least around 250+ hours before the panel can really settle down. Yes, this is similar to the plasma TV days, where anything before 200 hours were pointless to judge.

Guys, planning to update the firmware manually via USB tonight on the B6T.

SW File(Version 04.31.10)

There is no push update where you can just update over the air.

It helps in the latency for gaming and add on additional hdr game mode I guess.

I connect my Himedia Q10 to LG SH7 using HDMI in and from SH7 to Oled B6 using ARC HDMI. TV sound settings switched to ARC out (Auto/PCM) with SImplilink On. I can hear sound from any content from Himedia Q10, but when I use Lg Netflix app, no sound come out. Any idea how to get rid this problem?

I calibrated my E6 following AVForums.com's reccomendations and then manually tweak from there.

You may want to check their reccommended B6 settings at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXwFi3E1K0g and see how it goes.

Also, The Force Awakens naturally has grain anyway cos it was shot on film, not digital.

Try testing with fully digital titles (i.e. the Hobbit Trilogy, Star Wars Episode II and III, any CGI cartoons from Disney or Dreamworks) and see if you see similar issues? Such titles would not have grain.

Has anyone tinkered with the various IPTV apps in the LG Content Store? I don't even know where to start cos there's so many of them

And what little I checked generally give very poor quality pixelated video

Youtube 4k movies trailers is the one you can play. example transformers and others .

Other than that you can use netflix 4k accounts to watch.

Besides Netflix and YouTube I mean 😊

hi all, need advice on webos.

how do i fully utilise it? any streaming apps that i can install?

Tried playing the 4k content from youtube, but it isn't playing at 4k, only 1080p 30fs (using stats for nerds)
is there anything i need to do to get 4k from youtube?

Im using 30mbps unifi. Wheb you run youtube 4k video, you can go to the setting button on the youtube interface and click display info. There you can verify whether its running 4k.

I did some checking online, and it looks like only the G series OLEDs support YouTube 4K

I am unable to confirm this myself with my E6 cos I only have a 10mbps line and can't stream 4K

Check the LG Content Store for apps, although to be honest I haven't found anything useful besides YouTube, Netflix, Amazon Prime, and AOL Online.

That's just sad... so how do you guys watch 4k contents?
