Bought this a while ago so forgive the lack of details here. You have to do some tricky stuff to turn off some of the default picture settings on this unit in order to get it to look normal. It updates the terms and policies too often and sometimes logs me out of my account which is a nuisance. But I'm very happy with the purchase. I'm fussy with sound but this TV has very good speakers and I do not feel the need to buy any additional speakers for it. Beautiful picture. Always looks great regardless of streaming service used.

We have owned this TV for 3 weeks now. The 4K picture is excellent as is the picture from HD sources. Bright scenes and darker scenes are handled equally well on this LG OLED. A darker scene from a recent movie is attached.If you watch a lot of old black and white shows, the SD picture is just okay - nowhere near as good as on our 13-year-old Panasonic plasma.The sound from the speakers is very good. It even has a little bit of bass to it.The screen on this TV is extremely thin. Installing the base and moving the TV to the TV stand had me a little concerned. My assistant, aka my wife, was sweating bullets, worried that she might damage it helping me move it to the TV stand. I think this TV is not quite as fragile as its thin screen leads you to believe and we had no problems.The control is different from anything I've ever used. The selection arrow flies around on the screen as you wave the remote, and you select by pushing on the scroll wheel. I don't think that is very intuitive. There are a HUGE number of options for customizing your picture and sound within the menu.I am experiencing one anomaly. Sometimes when powering on this TV, the screen is covered in colorful vertical stripes. I have attached a photo of that. Changing to a different input immediately corrects the problem. It could be related to the current version of the LG firmware for this model. Time (and a later software update) will tell. I am hoping this isn't a sign of a problem developing. I took off one rating star for this issue.I do not use the TV's built-in apps so I can't speak to how well those work. I have a 4K Roku that I use to watch those services. The Roku works fine for me and the services are already set up.All in all, this LG OLED has a great picture and sound. Time will tell as to its reliability. Our Panny plasma is still going strong after 13 years. I hope this LG lasts that long!

I've been wanting an OLED TV since I first saw the display technology. I bit the bullet and bought this LG B2 on Prime Day. I couldn't be more delighted at the performance of the TV. Vibrant colors incredible contrast and detail that puts LED sets to shame. It's like going from a Yugo to a Benz. The remote takes some time to get used to but once you do it's more than okay. Set up was easy as the operating system already has most of your streaming services installed. I don't find it to be laggy but then again I'm old enough to remember when color tv's first appeared and you had to fiddle with rabbit ears. Unlike another reviewer states, it's very easy and simple to disable the energy saving mode which substantially improves the picture. If you want the best for viewing spend the extra money for OLED.. You won't regret it.I would be remiss if I didn't thank Amazon customer service for resolving the delivery issues I had. They knocked it out of the park and made the experience great. Thank you Jamie!

Our family recently upgraded from our beloved Sony Bravia X850D 55-inch TV to the LG B2 OLED, and it has been a game changer. The picture quality is stunning, thanks to the self-lit OLED pixels that deliver perfect black levels and incredible contrast. We immediately noticed the difference when we watched the Insidious series on the B2. The dark scenes were truly black, with no light bleed or halo effect. This made the movie even more immersive and suspenseful. The colors on the B2 are also incredibly vibrant and accurate. The B2 is also packed with smart features; overall, we are incredibly happy with the LG B2 OLED TV. It is a significant upgrade from our previous TV and provides an amazing home theater experience.

I know there are much better Oled tvs out there. But coming from a Amazon 4k Fire tv that was 1 year old this tv is amazing! Of course the Oled picture looks fantastic compared to an led tv, but my favorite feature is the AI upscaling. Dvd’s look better and have much less artifacting than any previous 4k tv I have owned. The AI upscaling on most blu rays however is so good that it almost makes them look native 4k. The picture is richer and cleaner looking that I have started ordering blu rays instead of 4k UHD disc when the price difference is significant because of how good blu rays now look! And 4k UHD looks so good on this its almost obscene to me.There is screen glare if a light source is poorly placed in relation to the tv and the picture could be a bit brighter, but if your looking to own a fantastic tv and pay less than $1000 this tv is amazing. The image looks so good you will probably want a decent sound bar or speakers for the most immersive experience, but the tv sound is decent but lacking bass.I would never own another tv without AI upscaling. If you have more money buy an even better Oled tv otherwise I think at this time this is the most amazing sub $1000 experience at the time of writing this! FYI I paid $850 for this tv on Black Friday.Lastly I got free unpack from Amazon. They screwed in the stand and put it on my entertainment center and confirmed it worked. They were nice and respectful and made it so I didn’t need a second person to set it up.

Je suis très satisfait de mon achat. Ma patience m’a permis de dénicher cette aubaine sur Amazon. La qualité de l’image, la facilité de réglage et d’utilisation et le nombre d’applications incluses sur cette Tv sont exceptionnelles. Je ne peux parler pour les jeux dont je ne suis pas un adepte. J’apprécie le pied central qui m’a permis de garder mon meuble Tv même pour une 55 pouces. J’ai pu aussi relier facilement mon système de son.
