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

3 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.

Discussion More Haunted Hotel

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.

Discussion East of Eden left me with more questions than answers Spoiler

2 Upvotes

I just finished East of Eden, basically watching the entire series within 24 hours, and I can't stop thinking about it.

The family dynamics, relationships, heartbreak, mental illness, and generational trauma were probably what captivated me the most. What I loved is that the show didn't always give us easy explanations for why these characters became the people they did. We watched their childhoods, trauma, relationships, and mistakes slowly shape them, and then watched that pain get passed down to other people.

Adam and Charles are probably the best example. They grew up in a home with very little love, under a father who constantly created pressure and comparison between them. What frustrated me is that Adam experienced firsthand how damaging that was, yet eventually recreated some of the same dynamics between Caleb and Aron.

I really wish we had gotten more of Charles. I kept expecting him to reunite with Adam and eventually meet his nephews, so his death genuinely surprised me. I also wanted a much deeper exploration of his relationship with Cathy. Cathy seemed to show a warmth toward Charles that she never had with Adam, almost as though Charles understood a part of her that Adam could never reach.

I'm still unsure how I feel about Charles appearing in Cathy's imagination. The Charles in her mind didn't seem like the actual Charles we knew. He was much darker and constantly encouraged her worst thoughts. I almost interpreted him as something Cathy's damaged mind created rather than Charles himself.

Cathy was probably the character I found the most disturbing and fascinating.

I hated many of the things she did, but I also found myself having compassion for her without excusing her actions. We see the traumatic experiences she endured growing up, and I interpreted her character as someone whose trauma and mental illness eventually became something incredibly dark within her.

There are still things about her that I don't understand. Why did she allow Adam to build this entire fantasy of marriage and children when she clearly didn't want that life? Why have children knowing she planned to leave? And why did she seem capable of showing Charles affection that she could never show Adam?

Her suicide also made me wonder whether there was still some capacity for love or guilt buried inside her. If her sons truly meant absolutely nothing to her, why did confronting the consequences of everything she had done affect her so deeply?

Then there's Adam, who honestly frustrated me more than Cathy sometimes because Adam knew what it was like to grow up in a damaged family.

He knew what comparison between brothers could do. He knew what emotional distance from a father felt like. Yet he still repeated so many of those patterns with Caleb and Aron.

I understand that Cathy completely destroyed him emotionally, but I also think there came a point where Adam had a responsibility to pull himself together for his children. Cathy shot him, abandoned him, and left him with two newborn babies, yet she continued controlling his emotional life for years afterward.

Most importantly, I think Adam should have told Caleb and Aron the truth about their mother.

And this is probably my most controversial opinion:

I don't think Caleb was responsible for Aron's death.

Caleb made a cruel decision in anger by forcing Aron to confront the reality of their mother, but Aron's death was the end of a domino effect that started long before either boy was born.

Cathy abandoned them. Adam hid the truth. Aron built an idealized understanding of his family. Caleb shattered that illusion.

Putting all of that responsibility onto Caleb felt incredibly unfair to me, especially because he already spent so much of his life feeling like there was something inherently wrong with him. I was actually surprised that even Lee seemed willing to place so much responsibility on Caleb.

If anything, I think Adam carries much more responsibility for what happened to Aron than Caleb does.

Speaking of Lee, he was easily my favorite character in the entire series.

His wisdom, vulnerability, humor, and emotional intelligence made him the glue holding the Trask family together. I especially loved his relationship with Hamilton. Watching Lee realize that Hamilton was genuinely interested in understanding him and then reveal his American accent was one of my favorite moments of the show.

Their friendship was one of the few genuinely warm relationships in an otherwise incredibly dark story.

Lee's own story was heartbreaking too. I wanted him to open his bookstore and finally build something completely for himself. Instead, racism and the restrictions of that period made the life he imagined much harder to achieve. Yet he eventually recognized that being with Adam, Caleb, and Aron was also a life he genuinely wanted.

The thing that ultimately devastated me was watching Caleb and Aron's relationship end up resembling Adam and Charles's.

Despite growing up wealthy, educated, disciplined, and cared for, they still inherited the emotional wounds of the generations before them. That's probably what I took away from the series more than anything else: financial stability and a "good" home can't protect children from unresolved generational trauma.

Almost every tragedy in this story can be traced backward.

Aron and Caleb's relationship connects to Adam's parenting. Adam's parenting connects to Cathy, Charles, and his own father. Cathy's behavior connects, at least partially, to her childhood and psychological deterioration.

One person's unresolved pain becomes another person's burden.

The ending wasn't satisfying in the traditional sense, but I don't think it was supposed to be. To me, the series was ultimately about truth, choice, vulnerability, and what happens when families refuse to confront painful things until it's too late.

I'm really curious what everyone else thought, especially:

Do you think Caleb was actually responsible for Aron's death? How much responsibility do you put on Adam? And what did you make of Cathy imagining Charles?

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.
