    Reviewers from pcmag have found the following***:
    The LG E9 series of OLED TVs offer predictably excellent picture quality and a gorgeous design. The TV covers almost all of the DCI-P3 color space, and hits primary colors almost spot-on. It's very expensive, like all OLED TVs, and that $4,300 price for the 65-inch version we tested is hard to swallow.

    Pros
    • Superlative contrast
    • Fantastic color accuracy
    • Built-in Dolby Vision
    Cons
    • Pricey for a 65-inch TV

    This is an excellent TV for mixed usage. It has an excellent picture quality thanks to near-perfect inky blacks.

    The LG E9 OLED is a stunning 4K TV with incredible black levels and rich, vibrant colors. The all-glass, frameless panel has an open and expansive air, while the HDR (high dynamic range) gives a gorgeous glint of emerald to the film's ongoing aquatic greens. It plays demanding games effortlessly, with that extra level of depth and detail in the panel creating staggering visuals in 3D environments.
