At CES 2026, I got hands-on with the LG G6 OLED and did the comparison everyone kept asking me for: is it actually better than the G5, or is this just marketing noise? The tricky part is the G5 was already one of the best OLED TVs ever made—I’ve been “driving” it through most of 2025 for movies, sports, and gaming—so LG is basically trying to improve something that already felt close to perfect. In this video I cut through the hype and focus on what you’ll notice in real rooms, not on a slide deck. I break down the real-world brightness jump from the G5’s already-crazy ~2200–2300 nits to the G6’s roughly ~2600–2800 nits with the Primary RGB Tandem 2.0 panel. The bigger win, though, is color staying richer at high brightness (LG’s “Hyper Radiant Color”), plus the upgrade that genuinely made me stop: the Reflection Free Premium coating. In harsh CES lighting, the G6 looked way cleaner—almost matte-like—without losing OLED contrast (but only on select sizes). I also cover the Alpha 11 Gen 3 processor improvements, smarter AI features, and gaming extras like 1080p/330Hz motion booster and 4K/120 GeForce Now, then I give my no-BS verdict: G6 is a refinement, and for most people the discounted G5 is still the value play.
