Consumer Reports’ Thoughts On LG OLED 4K Sets

Consumer Reports joined Into Tomorrow this week to share their thoughts on the new LG OLED TVs:

Right now LG is the only company selling OLED 4K TV sets here in the states.  But are they any good, or at least good enough to justify their premium price? Consumer Reports electronics spokesman James McQueen is here with a review.

LG’s 4K OLED sets now top our TV Ratings in several of the larger TV size categories. We just finished evaluating the 55-inch LG OLED55E6P, which goes for $4,000, an E6-series 4K TV that is the highest-scoring model in our TV Ratings. The TV is pricey, but we think it will be one of the best TVs you can buy this year. It has outstanding HD and UHD picture quality and very good sound.

Available in 55- and 65-inch screen sizes, the E6-series sets are step-up models that are ultra-thin and sport a “picture-on-glass” design with barely any bezel around the edge of the screen. The TV comes with a Harman Kardon-designed sound-bar-style speaker system along the bottom of the screen, which in this series is flat, not curved.

The G6 models represent LG’s flagship 4K OLED TVs for 2016. There’s a 65-inch model that sells for $8,000, and later this year it will be joined by a 77-incher. It has a flat screen and the picture-on-glass design, but its Harman Kardon-designed sound bar speaker is a bit more powerful.

For Into Tomorrow, James McQueen – Consumer Reports

Rory recommended an app he’s been playing with:

 

After being on a ship for so long I forgot what TV was like. My app of the week helps me find my next favorite TV show. Mighty TV is like the Tinder of television. Just swipe right! It honestly is that simple using Mighty TV you just swipe right or left to like or dislike a show title. Mighty TV will give you short synopses and trailers of your shows before you add them to your list. Say your best friend Tammy has uses the app as well. Mighty TV will let you know that Tammy likes Into Tomorrow just like you do and then you and Tammy now have something to kabits about over wine! Again I picked an app only available on iOS but it’s free in the App Store.
