Hi,

I'm getting LG OLED 65 B6T for 3.40L. Is this a good price? MRP is around 4.3L. So this seems like a good price.

Thanks.

Buy the smaller E6 instead. In terms of pure picture quality, the E6 beats the B6 and insider news is that the panels that aren't good enough for the E6 are relegated to the B6.
 
I'm not sure where you got this information. All reviews I read indicates that's its exact same panel.

Folks in AVS forum are actually calling it panel lottery as the hit and miss are the same.

The E6 is 1L more and features wise its just the sound bar and 3D both of these I absolutely don't need.

@Rahuln, I am from Hyderabad too, Have you enquired about LG 55 E6 model? What's the best price you have been quoted so far in Hyd? and also, would you mind sharing where did you get that quote from?

I didn't check the 55 inch model as 65 inch was non negotiable requirement from home ministry.

This is at Bajaj electronics.

No. B6 and E6 are near equivalent in terms of picture quality. A commoner should not be able to spot any difference whatsoever.

In side-by-side comparisons with LCD TVs I tested, there's not much of a contest: the B6, LG's "cheapest" 4K OLED TV, simply looks better in almost every way. Its picture is basically the equal of the more-expensive E6 I tested at the same time, so I don't think it's worth paying extra for that TV's superior sound and styling.

So far I didn't have any definitive proof about the differences but here it is now:

LG OLED55B6V (B6) 4K OLED TV Review

-> B6 has a cheaper Realtek SOC compared to LG's inhouse SOC in the E6. The latter is significantly faster
-> B6 has poorer quality calibration as can be seen from the graphs. It also has fewer and older calibration menus
-> Black crush is more apparent - this is what hdtvtest says :

"B6Vs less refined [Brightness] slider meant that its easy to float/ crush blacks unless extreme care was taken during calibration."

The rest seems similar though its highly recommended that the owner upgrade the firmware to the latest. Without that, the TV drops frames.

Agreed. The question still remains about the moolah. Is it really worth spending nearly 1.5 times? Will the benefits outweigh the cost? The questions are rhetorical and need to be answered by the buyer.

You may want to look online. If I remember correctly the price was around 3.12 lakhs. And you are right picture quality wise all three OLED models are the same. E6 and the Curved come with what you mentioned above.
 
For that price, a top notch 4K projector (JVC) might seem the way to go, though I do not wish to derail the OP's thoughts.

No projector supports HDR standards afaik. They simply don't have the luminosity to do so. As a result they are a compromise.
 
HDR projectors are available and use lasers but one will have to have a small fortune to acquire them. Picture quality is stunning. Check this out.

These are just placeholders and compromised implementations. They can't do local dimming and as a result they really can't produce the entire brightness range. It doesn't even do proper 4k. As a result no Dolby Vision. They themselves admit it:

"HDR capability means the projector is equipped to accept HDR10 (not Dolby Vision) video from 4K Blu-ray players and streaming devices. Since the LS10500 can't do local dimming like an HDR TV, it relies on global "HDR levels" determined by the metadata contained in the HDR signal. A big constraint would also seem to be the unit's limited light output (1500 lumens)."
 
For excellent sound that won't break the bank, the 5 Star Award Winning Wharfedale Diamond 12.1 Bookshelf Speakers is the one to consider!
