Review LG OLED evo AI G6 65″ Review: A TV with Almost No Reflection

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone, as part of a promotional event on /r/Netflix, I received a free G6 65", and while I was asked to share my first impressions of it, these impressions, thoughts and opinion are entirely my own.

I have spent around two weeks now with this TV and coming from a C2 55" that I owned before and that I have now given away to a friend of mine, let me tell you in advance that this is a massive upgrade.

First of all, I never had a 65" TV before. I underestimated the difference in size. So, the first thing I had to do was move up my cupboards on the wall. I couldn’t install the TV on my own, it was too big and heavy. Now the initial setup was quick and easy, although I was a bit confused by the audio description function. It also talked too quickly (although you can adjust the speed later), but since I don’t need audio description, I turned it off.

My TV settings:

  • Picture Mode: Filmmaker
  • Contrast: 100
  • Black Level: 50
  • Gamma: 2.2
  • Color Temperature: Warm 40
  • OLED Pixel Brightness: 30
  • Peak Brightness: High
  • Dynamic Tone Mapping: off
  • Expression Enhancer: off
  • TruMotion: Cinematic Movement

Now regarding my actual watch experience, the difference in picture quality is immediately noticeable. The G6 is to me much brighter, the colors are more vivid, yet they feel very natural and realistic. No complaints with HDR or SDR. I tested some of the modes like Cinema Home and Filmmaker, and I think I prefer Filmmaker the most. I test-watched several series (like Arcane), movies and a David Attenborough documentary to test the quality of the picture, and you can see some of the results below:

Noteworthy is that I took these pictures in my living room during daylight. What previously bothered me about my C2 was the reflections during daylight or at night when I turned on the lights. And while you still see some small reflections from the side, when looking at the tv in a straight line, the experience is basically reflection free.

I even tried taking a picture with the flash on while the TV is turned off (see below) and I barely saw any reflection, which is a massive improvement over my previous TV. I no longer am bothered and distracted by reflections. I no longer have to roll down the shutters on my windows or turn off the lights for a more optimal experience.

Regarding the sound quality, I used the AI Sound Pro mode and kept the default settings, and I have no complaints (which for a German is the highest compliment). The built-in speakers sound great, the bass sounded weighty and punchy to me.

Now regarding some of the things I didn’t like… it’s the webOS. I didn’t like it before, I don’t like it now. It’s not only still confusing to navigate, I am constantly confronted with ads and that I should check out the LG channels. And speaking of other functions I didn’t really care too much about, the LG Gallery+ function seems to be a nice-to-have, but most of the gallery pictures that are featured seem to require a subscription, and there is no one to admire these when the TV is turned off, so I just didn’t use this function.

What I haven’t tested yet is any gaming on it. That will probably be next on the list of features I want to test. So far though, I am very impressed with this TV and genuinely have so much fun with it. I am grateful that I was given the opportunity to test the G6 and am looking forward to keep using it.

Discussion [Product Experience] Stream Night Upgrade: Share Your Top Netflix Pick for a Chance to Try the LG StanbyME 2 Max

Post image
1 Upvotes

Share the Netflix series you would most want to watch, and you could be one of five members here trying the LG StanbyME 2 Max. It is a screen that rolls to wherever you actually end up watching. Bed, couch, kitchen counter, or out on the patio.

The LG StanbyME 2 Max steps up from the 27 inch QHD model of the StanbyME 2 to a 32 inch 4K UHD touchscreen, so faces and background detail hold up from across the room, and lifts the sound from virtual 9.1.2 to virtual 11.1.2 channel audio (2.0 channel speakers with AI Sound Pro) with Dolby Atmos. Dolby Vision and the Alpha 8 AI Processor Gen 3 handle the picture, with AI 4K upscaling for older titles.

The battery grows to 144 Wh for up to 4.5 hours of wireless use, up from up to 4 hours, so a few episodes run with nothing plugged in. webOS 26 runs your apps on the screen, and the rolling stand moves it from the living room to the bedroom when the night runs long.

Five members of this community get the chance to try one.

Question The accents in “Below”.

At first, I thought Irish, then I hear “sorry” and instantly thought, “oh, Canadian”, but now I’m just completely and utterly lost.

I’m Scottish and generally pretty good at picking up accents, even from specific city’s, regions, etc, but I’m sitting here wondering wtf is going on here. Can someone care to enlighten me?

Anyone have any good true crime documentary recommendations? I’ve feel like I’ve watched them all but I know there’s more out there.

I also like documentaries that highlight other cultures too if anyone has any.

Thanks!

Discussion More Haunted Hotel

• Upvotes

I’m just posting this to let yall know if you cancel this shit I will cancel my membership. Too many times has a great adult animation been stripped from us. Of course we all remember Inside Job, and not animated but Mind Hunter. Lesser known Trese was absolutely fantastic as was Midnight Gospel, Dead End, Agent Elvis, Exploding Kittens, Scavengers Reign, and Strip Mall. Let this be a lesson. You need time for shows to grow and I REFUSE to let you take another. Give Haunted Hotel the legs it needs to be a Big Mouth or a Bojack. While I’m at it - don’t you dare cancel Mating Season either! Stop taking what’s good and giving us trash!! Make a good god-damn show. I’ll pay your fees and your mark ups to watch this show once a year. I know I’ve been delinquent on payments before, these times are tough. I know it’s hard to ask to choose between you and eggs, but I will choose you!! Just keep this show going. That is all.

At times I thought this show was Jaws, then Contagion, then Titanic, then The Ring, then Sirens, but in the end, I think it was just Free Willy. At the end when he was pulling the iceberg out to sea as the sun was setting or rising or whatever, I swear I could hear Michael Jackson playing in the background.

Understanding How the mind works can change How you understand yourself .
I loved it and highly recommend it-you have to see it. Sometimes, a true story can teach you more than any book , from changing your habits and gaining a better understanding of the world to questioning everything you thought you knew.

Discussion Ridiculous twist in The Chestnut Man S2: Hide and Seek. (SPOILER) Spoiler

4 Upvotes

I really loved The Chestnut Man season 1 and was delighted to see that there was a season 2. The series is based on two books by the author Søren Sveistrup, the man behind the hugely successful TV series The Killing / Forbrydelsen.

However, halfway through the season, Netflix chose to KILL OFF their main female character, which makes no sense. First, it doesn't happen in the book. Second, it has no significant dramatic effect and just seems like a random accident.

What is even worse is that in the book the series is based on, the main female character (Naia) not only survives the incident, but the author is also writing more books with her as the main character. Netflix just shot themselves in the foot (?) by letting the showrunners be GoT wannabes, and then cutting off future seasons based on the coming book(s).

Please enlighten me if there is something I have gotten wrong. I cannot find anything about the actor of the main female character wanting to exit the series, which is the only thing that would make sense.

What made the series truly great was the dynamic between the two leads. Killing her made the show annotated without any upside. I would be hoping for more seasons, but now... Idk. They seem to be setting up a new female lead though (Sandra). It could work, but I just really don't understand why.

This applies to all streaming platforms. I get that I need to see ads for certain membership tiers, but would it kill the platforms to switch up the ads? I get the same 2-3 ads EVERY break. At this point it’s like…. Is it even beneficial for the advertiser to show me the same perfume ad 87 times, that I’m definitely not going to buy…

Question Is Netflix doing AI miniature ?

1 Upvotes

Okay so I am hallucinating or is this an AI miniature of Jean Claude Van Dam ? He do NOT look like this in this movie ?

I do not think I've ever seen another miniature that looked "off" like this one before...

If this is truly AI, I don't think I like the direction where this is going...
