Another change is the introduction of "Active HDR", which is supposed to improve HDR10 sources and mimic the dynamic properties of how dynamic HDR works
However, HDR10 is and will continue to be for the time being the most widely recognized and used Dynamic HDR available across all platforms
Where as current HDR TV's are only able to play HDR10 through HDMI (I'll talk on LG in a bit), this HDMI 2.1 allows for Dynamic HDR to be played by HDMI sources
As stated above, HDMI 2.1 introduces dynamic HDR by HDMI to TV's, however, LG is the only major TV company (not sure on Vizio) that has a leg up on the competition by having the Dolby Vision HDR chip embedded on 2016, 2017, 2018 models
X, Quick Media Switching, and the ability to play Dynamic HDR through HDMI
Every year, LG improves features and visuals in their lineup, somehow while staying aggressive on pricing to make them more affordable compared to previous years
We also have the Apple TV 4k, and pairing that with this TV takes things to the next-level, as Dolby Vision and Atmos are used - by both the Apple TV 4k, as well as with this TV.Overall, we're very happy with this TV and no regrets whatsoever.
Although every year newer Oleds improve features meant to prevent burn in, it can still occur
How many and how extensive those features available by firmware
There is a bluetooth option is a nice feature, however, I ran into some limitations with it
From reading other reviews, it seems that the processor doesn't necessarily create better colors, but instead creates better contrast between the color shades and brightness levels which in turn creates a better image as a whole
Overall, other TV models and technologies are able to produce brightness levels well above 1000 nits, but LG's Oled's ability to decrease black levels in individual pixels to virtually off levels, while displaying rich and vibrant color images, is a difference maker
wow, the lusciousness of the photography came across in vivid living color
and I dont use (for preference reasons).That aside, the colors are great on the screen and its very clear
The internal speakers are very nice quality, however, they are focused in one direction, so standing behind it or somewhere else, you don't get the full room sound from it
I've never seen a quality picture like this, it's amazing!
TV reviewers praised the TV as the best picture quality ever achieved, but I’m astonished that virtually all reviewers ignored the stuttering issue

I tried using LG’s TruMotion to smooth out the motion, however this created unnatural artifacts, including shimmering around moving objects, distortions, tearing, and sometimes outright bizarre mistakes in the image reproduction
HDR10 works by applying one set of HDR rules across the entire movie or episode, where as Dynamic HDR can change settings and HDR rule sets from scene to scene, thus the word Dynamic
I researched TV’s extensively before purchasing and thought that I would love this set
This creates a nonstop jerky or flashing motion instead of the illusion of a fluid moving picture that you see on LED TV’s or in the movie theater

It also seems that there is no real explanation from LG regarding the improved baseline nit levels, though it could possible be attrubted to the calibration process or even the Alpha 9 Processor at work
That said, I enjoy the brightness level the TV outputs

Yeah you could make it better with a sound bar, but even without it (as we're electing) the sound is very good.
This creates a nonstop jerky or flashing motion instead of the illusion of a fluid moving picture that you see on LED TV’s or in the movie theater
: this TV has only optical out, not even a regular line out jack, and switching between sound options is complicated and requires the fancy unusable remote - no component input--- SummaryGood screen, good sound, disappointing everything else

Now with several other companies in the Oled Race (though many still get the display from LG), LG's needs to continue to improve their winning product to stay in the lead
The last improvent is the inclusion of Google Assistant to the WebOS on 2018 Oleds, which should help with voice activated assistance in changing TV functions and settings, and hopefully will also interact with other smart home products as well
With the new integration of a google assistant, I am excited to see how well it works at controllling the TV by voice and also some of my smart products around the home

The screen is gorgeous and easily manageable by two people

It is under the film that protects the screen during shipping.
The screen will burn in images and LG will not fix it
The connection to our wireless internet was so easy and the TV is already set up to work with Amazon Prime and Netflix - just push the labelled button on the remote.
That can be fixed by telling the Harmony that you have a "dumb" LG TV rather than a smart one
All the reviews you might find on this wonderful TV are correct, this is best in class.
If LG is too cheap to back-light its remote (while they gloat about how dark the TV's blacks are), what other cheap components are inside?
every channel that I watch on my cable and when I watch it, I decided to run this expensive TV as a dumb monitor

However my biggest issue with TruMotion was that I just didn’t like the surreal smoothness
