I just got my 65E6 from Harvey Norman Ikano a few days ago 😊

Their current sticker price is RM17999, but they are definitely open for haggling. I was only able to bring it down to RM16400 though, but I suck at this anyway 😝

Good luck 👍

I have a 9 year old LCD (Sony Bravia KLV40V-400A) that's still working fine without any problems

Similarly, my 6 year old plasma (Panasonic Viera 50VT20K) is still going strong

My LG OLED65E6 is only 3 weeks old so far... hopefully it has the same lifespan as my Sony

OLED does suffer from kmage retention to some degree, but not as bad as plasma. I have not encountered any problems with my E6 (although to be fair it's only 3 weeks old)

But unless you're using it as a PC monitor or using it to display static images for long periods of time, this wouldn't be an issue with standard use.

I have a 6 year old plasma used mainly to watch BDs and play games, never had any serious image retention problems. I expect current OLEDs to be the same.

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

Besides Netflix and YouTube I mean 😊

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.

With my Samsung UBD-K8500 Ultra HD Blu-ray player

Don't need no streaming with lossy audio and high compression rates

I moved my Panasonic 50VT20K to the bedroom after upgrading to the LG OLED65E6.

While it's is still a good workhorse, the black levels that I once thought were gorgeous now don't look so great any more after being spoiled by the OLED (especially with the Star Trek: The Next Generation BDs).

Alas my 50VT20K is now relegated to running my PS2, Sega Saturn, Apple TV, Phiips DVD HTiB, and a budget Samsung BD-J4500 Region B player.

Being a Panasonic product, I have faith it will last for many, many more years to come.

Motion handling is definitely one of the weak points of the 2016 models, seperti with 24fps content

I am sure I am not the only one... but the main reason to stick with the 2016 models (besides the current lowered prices) is their absolutely superior 3D support. Passive 3D at 4K is even better than Active 3D at 1080p. Being a dyed in the wool Blu-ray 3D supporter, it was the main reason I bought the E6.

Upscaling is best left to the Blu-ray player, and have the TV process it as a true 2160p SDR image. Besides the Oppo 103, Pioneer Elite players should be considered for 4K upscaling of Blu-ray content.

Not really a modern gamer outside of the occasional game on my PS3 and PS4.. prefer to play retro on my PS2 and Saturn... but so far I have not encountered any problems as far as PS3/4 are concerned

Not a PC user either, so I don't know what HTPCs can do anymore since the DVD era.

I haven't experienced any dimming or brightness issues with SDR, 3D, or HDR contenr with my E6, so I'm not entirely certain what you mean.

I always leave the video processing to the player in order to minimize it... I always leave my receiver to do direct video passthrough and leave the TV to display at native resolution, be it 576p or 720p or 1080p.

Has anyone tried the Record Live TV feature on their LG OLEDs?

I tested 3 different USB sticks with my E6, and all of them are rejected by the TV. I checked the built in help and the only requirements are the USB stick needs to be minimum 4GB in size (I tested with 4GB and 8GB sticks).

I switched between FAT and NTFS to no avail

The only common denominator is that these are USB 2.0 sticks.. is USB 3.0 a requirement?

I only use my E6 to watch BDs and play games, so it doesn't really have the opportunity to display static content.

Question for the sifus

I was watching The Revenant today, and the video signal quit a few times (no more than 2-3 seconds) before coming back up. I don't think it's a disc issue cos the audio continued, and my E6 flashes the HDR indicator on the upper right corner for a few second when the picture came back on.

I am running the disc on a Samsung UBD-K8500, using HDMI1 output only to my Yamaha RX-A3050 receiver, which outputs to HDMI2 on my E6.

I use the same 6ft AmazonBasics cable (see https://amazon.com/AmazonBasics-High-.../dp/B014I8SSD0) to connect the player to the receiver, and the receiver to the TV.

This is the first time I encountered this problem, did not have any issues with other titles like Batman v Superman or Planet Earth II.

Any input would be much appreciated.

No, I set to Mode 2 already to enable 10-bit color passthrough.

Noted.

I switched to Mode 2 cos I was getting color banding on Mode 1. Will retest again, thanks

Set to 4K Mode 1

Still getting the intermittent video dropouts

Doesn't look like it's isolated only to The Revenant, getting same problem with John Wick

Ordered some cables from 18gbps certified cables from Monoprice, scheduled to arrive end of this month. Will use separate cables for audio and video for the UHD player and see if it fixes the problem

Not sure about the C7, but both SD and HD content looks very good on my E6. So your C7 should be even better I imagine.

I have tested SD content from both Astro, myFreeview, and DVDs, all look very good (or as good as they can be). Certainly the best they have ever looked as far as I know, compared to my old 1080p panels.
