It's a little late. The G6 comes out, you know, in a few months from now, but I was looking around and I thought, why is this on the shelf still? Why don't we unbox it? I This is a beautiful display. It's a tandem W O LED and it should get super bright. And the reason I'm curious about that is because I just took my S95B out of the basement, put it up to the living room, and now there's sunlight all over it and I can see the magenta. The picture doesn't look as good when the lights are on and you know, I really could use a thousand plus nits of SDR. How about you? Let's find out how it looks. Okay, what have we got here? We've got our stand. No, this is not the stand at all. So, you get your cables all plugged in and then you pop that on. Here's a secret. I don't bother. Put that to the side. I want to see what's in here. We've got this circular thing. What the hell is this for? Also cable cover thing. I'm not sure. It's round. Genuinely no idea, but we're going to find out together. Also, the top of the box, we've got Oh, the other piece for whatever that thing is. Another No, this is the remote. Okay, we've got our bolts for anything that we're going to put together, probably the legs or the feet. We've got our like warranty guide and um Is there like a color accuracy tester anything? Nope, doesn't look like it. That's fine. This is the cool magic remote. One, it's got a scroll wheel on it, which is wild. I don't know when they started doing that. So, I don't know if the G4 had this or not, but either way, um yeah, it's got like circular touch, uh scroll wheel. Um there's a big AI button cuz guess what? This TV's chock-full of AI. We're going to try some of those features. As per usual, a lot of TV boxes these days have, you know, instructions that you should follow. Um these steps all look like they're done. Take it out of the box, remove the box, get the foam out. Okay, let's get the the out of here. See you later, foam. It says OLED 65 G4. They didn't update the foam since the G4. What the Comment down below if you think they're going to update the foam by the time the G6 comes out, which we will hopefully be reviewing or looking at later this year. I don't think it's going to be updated. I think it's still going to be G4. You know, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Big metal base for our stand. Oh, and maybe it is a big column. That was close. I almost like dropped the metal out of the package. Oh my god. So, it's going to lay flat on your surface, and then you're going to pop that singular stand. I don't know how comfortable I feel putting a giant 65-in TV on a column center stand. Um I'm very much a fan for TVs of like legs on either side. I'll do what you tell me to do, LG. And there's instructions on the back. Yep, that is absolutely what we are supposed to do. I am very uncomfortable right now, but that's okay. And it looks like that's it. You know, we'll take the wrapper off and everything. Uh what we're going to try to do is follow these instructions that tell me to place our two side foams onto the ground. Put the TV onto the two side foams, install the stand, then take it off. I didn't believe in the diagram, and then Brad noticed there's a thing on the ground, and so he also noticed that it kind of looks like the other foam. So, you put the foam down, slot the bottoms on, and then it should be a little more stable. I don't know how necessary that is cuz like these feet seem like they can hold the TV just fine, but you know, when in doubt, follow the instructions. One, two, three. I tried to use my legs and knees to keep the other box foam from following it. And then there we go. It's not going anywhere. Don't worry about it. The ceiling is dripping water. The lights went out. That's why we're filming over here in the kitchen instead of in the living room. Just work with me here. One thing to note as well, once I get the peel off, this was sent in immaculate condition, but we're pretty sure someone hit it or something while uh it was waiting to be re-boxed. So, there's a little mark on the front, not LG's fault, our fault or someone's. Um wow, this is a thick boy. Look at all this aluminum on the outside. I wonder how much of this is heat sink just for like how bright this thing's going to get with the tandem OLED. What is this? This came installed. This is just a little cover for the wall mounting stuff. That is some thick hardware. Uh I don't think I've ever felt more uncomfortable in my life installing a TV stand. All right, so here's what we're going to do. We're going to take this back plate off of here and then we're going to attach that to the column and our hefty metal stand. Yeah, I don't understand why we do it this way. I Like whatever, we'll follow the instructions, but in my opinion, and maybe this is wrong, so maybe you shouldn't do this, but I think it would've been a lot easier to just leave this on and then put the stand up and screw it in, but you know, maybe we'll discover something. Oh, it goes to like one of these spots OR WAIT, WHAT IF THIS IS CONFUSING, IT'S BECAUSE IT KIND OF IS, but you know, once you do it once, it makes a lot of sense. So, these little hooks here, it's going to slot in to this spot here and then we're going to then screw the bolts through these holes here. You have multiple height options. Only two? But, you know, it's better than one. This makes a lot more sense now. At the very least, it's new, and so it's kind of novel to me, so I like it. Okay. Oh. So, it looks like if you do want to take it off, you just push the clip here. Basically, what you've got to do is you want to rock it into this like hook and then rock it forward and push the clip down until it clicks into place. And then the last thing we're going to do pop our plastic cover on. Oh, but we should probably put the bolts in. Yeah, that's a good idea. Okay, so we're going to pull our power cable kind of out of the way, flick it here, and then it's actually kind of standing. Maybe this is why they want the foam. All right, we're good. Let's lift it up and put it in place. But not before a word from our sponsor, Proton.

I don't like how wobbly this is. I'm really against this. Um I think that if you're going to get the G5, you can get them without the stand, usually for like 100 bucks cheaper. I don't know if they're still doing that, but if they are, I don't know if I'd bother with the stand, you know? I don't know why they thought it was smart to do this. On a 55-in or a 48-in or a 42, I could kind of understand, but I don't uh yeah, I'm It's safe. It seems like it's not going anywhere. Maybe kicking a console, your TV would jiggle a little anyway on a stand, but like not if I just tap the edge like this. I don't like it. I don't have to like it. But you know what I do like? All of the IO. We've got all of our cable management here, including some, you know, handy clips that they've got, and then all of our IO here and here. There's an IR blaster, antenna, optical digital audio out, two HDMI down here. Couple of USB. Two more HDMI. Number two has E arc on it. One more USB. There is a peel on the back around the silver frame. The more I look at the silver accent frame, the more I like it. I mean, you're never really going to see it too much unless you're behind the TV, but yeah, I kind of dig it. And aside from the stand, you know, construction seems totally fine. It's not as like laser thin as a QLED is, but I'll be very frank. I feel nervous when I move my TV at home. I feel a lot less nervous about this guy literally bending as I move it just because of how thick the frame is. The light blinked. The funny thing is we have a different TV back there that also got turned off when I did that. This should be the magic remote so you can use it as a pointer to just like point at things and click and select. Oh, there's the magic remote stuff going. Okay, sick. Terms and conditions. Ah, that's a lot. THE SCROLL WHEEL WORKS. NICE. Service area zip code. To be clear, there is a model that comes out in Canada. It's a slightly different model number, but it's basically the same TV. Pretty sure we got an American one. Doesn't really matter. See, even in the stand picture, they show two feet and I don't like the center column. It looks like a giant monitor. Oh my god, it just It doesn't even look like a TV. It looks like a big monitor. I'm going to turn their AI picture pro on and I'm actually going to turn the AI sound pro on as well. Wow, now the baby looks sharper. Um this is one of the few things I will actually turn on for the AI settings. LG actually has really good processing and they've got the Alpha 11 AI Gen 2 in here. Can you turn it off and on again for the picture pro? Woah. I don't know if they're just juicing the audio or what the sound pro AI stuff is doing, but you know, it sounded better to me. So, I'm going to keep that on as well. I don't know what AC 4 audio is, but I do love dialogue enhancement stuff because, you know, a lot of movies really don't sound good if you're trying to listen to what the actors are trying to say. Um that's why I watch stuff with subtitles. Let's see if I CAN DOWNLOAD PLEX. AH! YOU DO need your LG account signed in if you want to download any other apps. I went to download Plex. They're hitting me with the account sign-in and there's a device, there's a thinQ app, and there's a mobile web sign-in, but uh yeah, we got to sign in to something. I'm basically just boosting all the brightness and all of the features that it lets me do that in. I'm not saying that this is going to be the most color accurate right now because of the settings I'm uh enabling, but I think it looks better personally. Um and most people do. People like brightness uh more so than they like even like more color. Like as long as the TV is really bright, it's probably going to impress you. However, when we did test this in Filmmaker Mode with the settings correct, um it measured pretty good. This looks awesome though. As for color accuracy in Filmmaker Mode with a few minor adjustments, we're getting a Delta E ITP of like six with a max of closer to 20. Average of six is like very good DE ITP, to be very clear. And so, overall, I'm pretty impressed with what I'm looking at right now even if this with all the like dynamic contrast enhancing and everything is wrong, um it still looks really good. Like And the other nice thing is uh this supports Dolby Vision, which isn't supported by all other TVs and we did a whole video on it on LTT. The difference might not be staggering like SDR versus HDR, but HDR 10 or 10 plus versus Dolby Vision, you do notice a little difference and DV does look really nice. As for SDR color accuracy, it's also really good. We did a few minor tweaks, but set to ISF Expert mode, we're getting under one Delta E average with a max of just under three. Very impressive, but TVs have come a long way in these past like 5 10 years. I kind of expect that out of most devices. I mean maybe not under one. Okay, that's a little extreme, but uh yeah, it's pretty good overall. Really solid TV. In SDR, we measured over a thousand nits of brightness, which is like wild. I think that's actually the brightest SDR display we've ever tested before. And then as for HDR brightness, we measured a whopping 2500 nits in Filmmaker Mode. That's a lot. And it really is a testament to just how far TVs have come in these past few years. And you know who else TVs have come a long way? They've got AI now. So I want to press the AI button, which you can also just say, \"Hey LG.\" That didn't work. It might not be enabled. Don't blame the TV. Press the AI button. Please agree Oh my god, I have to agree to the terms and conditions to use the voice recognition feature. Of course it does cuz it's probably stealing all of my telemetry. It's probably stealing my voice. I'm not sure how I feel about that. I mean okay, no, I am sure. I don't like it at all. I'm really anti-AI personally. I'm also really anti spying on me in my home. And I get that you're agreeing to that, but we agreed to like a mini novel worth of things just to enable that. And there was a bunch more that we could have agreed to like some marketing stuff and more telemetry hooks. Hi LG. Turn the volume up. It did it by an increment of one. Hi LG. Turn the volume up five points. Okay, it worked that time. Hi LG. I can't really hear. Can you turn the volume up, please? Now I'll give me search results. I've paid, if I bought this TV, the 65-in is usually something like 3300 US dollars. It's a pretty expensive display. It's It's a beautiful beautiful TV, but it's very expensive. Um even the 55-in is still over two grand. So like you're spending a lot of money on this thing and I get that there's not a lot of like ads, per se. It's more just like here's all your different apps and here's some shows you could watch. That's not too bad. TCL and Hisense have been getting really bad with advertisements lately, so I'm not going to complain too much here. But, like, the AI stuff, which you don't have to use, I don't like it at all. I kind of wish they would just ditch it, but that's the way the world's going. Would I buy this TV? At full price, I think that it is worth it for those of you who are looking for like literally the best possible display or one of the best possible displays in that price range when it's brand new. However, a big suggestion I have if you're trying to buy a new television, try to wait until the fall. You will usually get, or even early spring, like of this year, like right now. This is on sale for a lot of money and it's because the new models are going to come out soonish, right? The G6 launches in a few months or something like that. So, what you'll typically see is in the fall, you'll get their like fall clearance sales and like Black Friday Cyber Monday where they're trying to make space for the new TVs. But, then later again in the spring, they're going to try to clear everything out again. And so, you're going to see major deep discounts on TVs that are like this that are normally very flagship and expensive. So, on sale right now, this is about $1,100 off for $2,300. Sorry, it's $3,400 full price. Um, I bought my TV in the fall. I saved a bunch of money. I highly suggest you do the same thing. If you're one of those people who needs the latest and greatest, then hey, maybe keep watching ShortCircuit and wait until we unbox the G6. Cuz then we can make the stupid like a G6 plane joke over and over again. That's all I'm going to do. I'm going to unbox the TV and I'm going to say like a G6, like a G6."}
