Our premium OLED pick

LG G6 65-inch

The size we would compare first when shopping for a premium OLED living-room television. Choose it only when the dimensions and price fit your room and budget.

The LG G6 is our premium OLED pick for buyers who will use its picture and gaming features. Its appeal is OLED contrast combined with LG’s brightness and reflection-control technologies. It is a deliberate premium purchase, not a recommendation that every household needs to spend this much.

The 65-inch OLED65G6PSB is our starting point. The 55-inch suits a tighter space, while the 77-inch provides a larger image when the room and budget allow. Screen size should follow your seating position and installation constraints.

This guide is based on published Australian specifications and retailer information. Better Life Decisions has not independently measured this television’s brightness, input lag, colour accuracy or long-term reliability.

The three sizes at a glance

Size and Australian model Listed price Best reason to choose it Main consideration
65-inch · OLED65G6PSB A$3,975 A useful balance of size and cost. Measure the full installed footprint
55-inch · OLED55G6PSB A$3,995 Choose it when space sets the limit. Currently costs A$20 more than the 65-inch
77-inch · OLED77G6PSB A$5,975 More screen area for movie nights. A$2,000 above the 65-inch listing

Sale pricing changes the comparison: at this check, the 65-inch costs less than the 55-inch. The smaller television is therefore a space-based choice, not the cheaper option. These are listed prices from one retailer, not a lowest-price guarantee.

65-inch OLEDAustralian model

For a premium living-room setup

The 65-inch is our main pick because it offers a substantial screen without the price jump to 77 inches. At the checked listing, it also undercuts the 55-inch, so there is no financial reason to choose the smaller model unless another offer changes the comparison.

LG lists the 65-inch cabinet at 1,441 × 826 × 24.3mm without the stand. Its listed footprint with the stand is 1,441mm wide and 263mm deep, with two published height positions of 865mm and 910mm. Allow additional clearance for connections and ventilation.

Reasons to choose it

  • Best listed price among these three at this check.
  • Less room and installation demand than the 77-inch.

What to consider

  • Still a significant purchase.
  • Will not fit every cabinet or viewing position.
Smaller-room option

55-inch OLEDAustralian model

For rooms where a larger television will not fit

The 55-inch keeps the article focused on buyers who want the G6 range but have a narrower wall, smaller cabinet or closer seating position. Measure the available space before deciding that the 65-inch sale makes it the better purchase.

A television that physically dominates the room or forces an uncomfortable viewing angle is poor value even at a lower price. Choose this size for fit, then compare offers again before paying. Do not assume the stand or wall-mount package is identical to another size.

Reasons to choose it

  • An option for more restricted spaces.
  • Keeps the choice within the G6 range.

What to consider

  • Currently dearer than the 65-inch listing.
  • Less image area for distant seating.
Larger-screen option

77-inch OLEDAustralian model

For a larger cinema-style picture

The 77-inch is the option to compare when you want the television to occupy more of your field of view. It is not a different ranking of picture quality: this recommendation is about screen size and the room where it will be installed.

At the checked prices it adds A$2,000 to the 65-inch purchase. Compare what that money buys elsewhere in the setup, including sound, installation and window coverings. Confirm the boxed delivery route as well as the final wall or cabinet space.

Reasons to choose it

  • More screen area for a larger room.
  • Worth considering when movies are a regular priority.

What to consider

  • Substantially higher purchase cost.
  • Larger installation and delivery requirements.

Why the G6 earns our premium position

OLED pixels produce their own light and can switch off individually. That allows bright and dark parts of an image to sit beside one another without relying on the larger backlight zones used by LCD televisions. Films with dark scenes and small highlights are a useful example of why buyers value this approach.

LG pairs that foundation with Brightness Booster Ultra, Reflection Free Premium certification and its Alpha 11 AI Processor 4K Gen3. Those are published features, not proof from our own measurements that the G6 beats every competing television.

Our judgement is that the combination is worth comparing for a buyer already seeking premium OLED. The extra expenditure is harder to justify when ordinary television viewing is the main use or when a less expensive model already meets the room’s needs.

Brightness and reflections need a room-based decision

A bright showroom demonstration cannot tell you how the television will look opposite your own window. Consider where daylight falls at the times you watch, and whether a lamp is reflected directly in the seating position.

LG’s brightness and reflection-control claims are reasons to inspect the G6, not a promise that room lighting stops mattering. Picture mode, content and settings affect visible brightness. A reflected window may remain distracting even on a premium screen.

Before paying for an upgrade, see whether repositioning a lamp or adding a blind would solve the problem. If your room is unusually bright for most viewing, compare an appropriate Mini-LED alternative in similar conditions as well.

Movies and streaming

LG lists Dolby Vision, HDR10 and HLG support. These formats require compatible content and a suitable playback path. Paying for a premium panel does not improve a low-quality stream into a native high-quality source.

Try familiar material when comparing televisions: dark scenes, faces, subtitles and motion. Do not make the decision solely from a colourful demonstration loop. Start with a picture mode intended for accurate viewing and adjust for the room rather than assuming the most vivid setting is the best.

Check your streaming plan and application support before purchase. The presence of a format logo does not mean every programme, app or subscription tier delivers it.

Gaming: understand 120Hz and 165Hz

The Australian 65-inch specification identifies a native 120Hz panel with VRR up to 165Hz. The higher figure needs a compatible source and operating mode. It is not a promise that every connected console or game will run at 165 frames per second.

LG also lists G-Sync compatibility, FreeSync compatibility and automatic low-latency mode. Variable refresh can reduce tearing when the source frame rate changes, but it does not make a slow game engine produce more frames.

There are four HDMI inputs listed for the 65-inch, with 4K 120Hz support, and eARC is assigned to HDMI 2. Plan the connections before adding a soundbar or receiver. Equipment in the middle of the signal path must support the modes you intend to use.

Check the exact screen size’s specifications and your device settings. Use a suitable cable and confirm that the expected resolution, refresh rate and HDR mode are active after setup. We have not measured this model’s gaming latency.

Sound: leave room in the budget

Dolby Atmos support does not make built-in television speakers equivalent to a separate surround system. Thin cabinets have physical limits, particularly for bass and the separation of sound around a room.

Try the built-in sound with dialogue before automatically buying more equipment. If speech remains difficult to follow or movie sound lacks impact, budget for a suitable soundbar or separate speakers. Check that any soundbar fits below the screen without obstructing it or the remote receiver.

For external audio, confirm eARC compatibility and the formats supported by the whole system. An audio badge alone does not describe every playback or passthrough situation.

Smart features and support

LG lists webOS 26, Google Cast and Apple AirPlay on the 65-inch model. Their usefulness depends on your devices and preferred services. Test the remote, menu layout and input switching if possible; these are the controls you will use long after new features lose their novelty.

AI and online services should be treated as extras. Their availability can depend on region, accounts, internet access and changing service terms. Do not choose an expensive television solely for a promoted assistant.

LG publishes security updates until 31 December 2030 for the referenced model. That is a security-support date, not a promise that every streaming app will remain available unchanged or that the hardware will fail at that point.

Installation checks before ordering

Check What to do
Room and seating Measure the wall or cabinet and assess the screen from your normal seat.
Stand or wall mounting Confirm what is supplied with the exact model and what must be purchased separately.
Furniture Check width, depth and load capacity; follow the manufacturer’s stability instructions.
Wall installation Use compatible hardware and an installer able to assess the wall and cable route.
Delivery access Measure doors, stairs, lifts and tight turns using the packaged dimensions.
Connected equipment Plan HDMI use, eARC audio, power access and cable clearance.
Lighting Check reflected windows and lamps during your usual viewing hours.
Total cost Include delivery, mounting, furniture changes and any audio upgrade.

A photograph showing a stand is not proof that every retailer package includes the hardware you need. Ask for confirmation on the order and check the installation documentation for the exact size.

OLED care and static images

Follow LG’s care instructions and leave the recommended protection features enabled. A screen used for varied films and television has a different usage pattern from one displaying fixed dashboards, logos or desktop elements for long periods.

If persistent static content is the main use, investigate the manufacturer’s guidance and warranty conditions before choosing OLED. Do not assume a premium model eliminates all image-retention concerns, and do not run maintenance cycles more frequently than the instructions recommend.

When spending less makes sense

A cheaper OLED may be sufficient for a controlled-light room, ordinary streaming and buyers who will not use the G6’s additional features. Compare what you watch rather than buying the highest model number you can afford.

Screen size, sound and comfortable placement can matter more than a processing upgrade. If the G6 forces you to compromise on essential installation or leaves no money for a needed audio solution, reconsider the complete setup.

Keeping a television that still works well is also reasonable. Identify the problem you are trying to fix before shopping: reflections, screen size, missing connections or poor sound. Each can lead to a different purchase decision.

Frequently asked questions

Which LG G6 size would we start with?

The 65-inch, provided it fits. It currently has the lowest listed price among these three at the checked retailer. The 55-inch is the space-constrained option and the 77-inch is the larger-screen upgrade.

Is the 55-inch always cheaper?

No. Promotions can reverse the normal price order. At this check, the 65-inch was A$20 cheaper. Compare the final delivered prices again before ordering.

Does 165Hz matter for every gamer?

No. It matters only when the source and selected mode can use it. Verify your game and equipment rather than assuming the maximum television specification is always active.

Will reflection control remove every reflection?

No. It can improve usability, but placement and direct light still matter. Assess the room at the times you normally watch.

Do I need a soundbar?

Not automatically. Try dialogue and familiar content first. Add external audio when it solves a problem you can hear, and check compatibility and physical placement.

Is this a hands-on review?

No. It is a researched buying guide using published specifications and current retailer information. We have not performed independent laboratory testing.

Our verdict

LG G6 is a premium OLED option worth comparing when picture quality and gaming features are priorities. The 65-inch is our starting point at the checked prices. Choose the 55-inch when room size requires it, or the 77-inch when the larger image justifies the extra cost.

Pay for improvements that suit your viewing. A television that fits your room, equipment and budget is a better purchase than a more expensive model whose advantages go unused.
