Does SkyQ offer HDR? Just because it's UHD it doesn't mean it's HDR. Try The Grand Tour on Amazon, make sure it's the UHD version. The TV should go into HDR mode. In the unlikely event that it doesn't, you might have a problem.
Picked up a LG OLED55B6V

Thanks I'll try that.

Tried Netflix Goliath and it only streams as 1080p
Sorted it I needed to select the Amazon 4k from the home screen.

Sevenoaks have an ex display model available for £1299 if anyone's interested.
LG rejuvinating 1080p market
interesting marketting strategy, are 2k1K panels much cheaper to produce than 4k.
or they want to preserve the profits from their 4k sets, but also take away some of the sub £1000 market, with a product with better PQ and
well adapted to many homes where acceptable screen size and viewing distance mean 4K questionable.
will the panels and electronics be 2017 ?

According to this post a a few pages back the main difference between the 2016 and newer 2017 models are
- better handling of details in dark/black areas
- better handling of motion
- reduced ABL
- lower input lag across the board
Not had any issues with motion and input lag is fine on my B6. Don't think any of them points are worth the extra £1k.

The difference in input lag is negligible really.
Where B6 has 28ms, the B7 has 21ms.

if you looked at the earlier posted tone mapping utube from hdtvtest guy, then the
"Improved HDR tone-mapping with less clipping of bright highlight detail"
could be attractive, not worth the 1K - need to wait until prices drop

Had a look at these, but only a tiny bit cheaper than the B6. Daft.
< 1k EUR and it would have been interesting.

Am I the only one running deblur 1, dejudder 1? I found the panning shots in Sicario were smoother deblur 1 vs deblur 10 more stutter

Can't see a thread for the new models but has anyone seen them running, saw the £4.2k model in Curry's yesterday and it blew me away, they had one of the previous models still running and there was a definite improvement with the new one, good thing the other half was there to keep me sane or I'd have very nearly walked out with one.
I'll try with deblur 1 and let you know. 2/3 and 10 are usually ok for me, but I've noticed some annoyances in some things that I'd like to remove (may have just been the official plex app though, complete dog)

Just seen a B7. Wow. The blacks and shadowing are noticeably better than the B6. I'm going to upgrade as soon as the bathroom refit has been done.

Do you mean grey scale type blacks? My B6 is so black it looks like its off, until the screensaver firework cuts in.

Yeah and the detailing within dark scenes.
Improved coating / filter on screen resulting in less purple / pink reflections also.
B7 at 2k Total digital which JL are price matching with 5 year warranty i believe.
