Who wins on what

Ranked by what users actually praise

Overall Impression

Picture quality and 3D are the E6's biggest strengths. Multiple owners call the E6 the best TV they've ever owned, citing deep blacks, vivid color, and contrast that beats even bright LCDs. The 3D playback draws especially strong reactions, with viewers saying it's jaw-dropping, better than 4K HDR, and that friends' jaws drop watching it, cementing the E6 as a favorite among 3D movie collectors even years after purchase.

Burn-in and image retention split owner opinions sharply. Some owners report 11,000+ hours with zero burn-in after taking precautions like auto-off timers and panel-clearing cycles, while others describe severe burn-in, streaky marks, and panels dying after just a few years, sometimes requiring costly replacement. LG's customer service and warranty limitations around panel issues add frustration, with several commenters warning to avoid static images and leaving the TV on unattended.

Motion handling and dark scenes cause real complaints for some users. Several owners report gray, pixelated shadows in dim scenes even after calibration, sometimes leading to return considerations, while others see no such issue on the same model. Judder on 24p content displayed at 60Hz, default TruMotion artifacts, and input lag around 32-34ms bothered motion-sensitive viewers and competitive gamers, though many others found these manageable with correct input and motion settings.
