TLDR: Why does other OLEDs, (including the C6 that has the same SOC), take about 25% longer than the 55E6 to run a compensation cycle?

On the upside, LG says the new remote will have NFC capabilities, so you can tap a smartphone against it to share content to the TV screen. But I’ll miss the touch of whimsy that webOS on LG TVs had until now. Maybe it’ll only take a few days with one of the new sets to get a hang of this refreshed layout, and this approach will probably be easier to navigate and more intuitive for non-techies. I don’t want to give a thumbs up or down on webOS 6.0 until I’ve seen it first hand, but my early feeling is that it seems like a regression.

Earlier versions of webOS were colorful and less obtrusive. But I’ve asked LG for confirmation on this since the annual changes aren’t typically this drastic. So if you bought an LG OLED or LCD TV sometime in the last couple years, it’s likely you’ll stay with the previous interface. LG doesn’t usually bring each year’s new version of webOS to past TVs. Unfortunately, LG told me there’s no way to hide rows you don’t have any use for.

These were all separate areas of webOS before, but now they’re being moved into the spotlight.

There will be individual rows for shopping, sports scores, and the ad-sponsored LG Channels - where you can stream free programming - on the home screen. (LG’s latest Magic Remote will also have shortcut buttons for select streaming apps including Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Disney Plus.) LG says “the new home screen provides faster access to the most frequently used apps and streamlines content discovery with the ability to receive recommendations based on the user’s preferences and viewing history.” You can see a big “sponsored” slot in the top left there, so yes, you can expect some ads and paid placement recommendations on the home screen of your future LG TV. You’ve got a hero area at the top with large banners, then “top picks,” followed by apps, home dashboard / your inputs, and a bunch of other categories. At least on the surface, everything looks more bland.

The colorful webOS “blades” interface is completely gone.

Version 6.0 of the software gets rid of the slide-up bar altogether and now has a full home screen that looks akin to what you’d find on, well, any other TV. LG is giving webOS a major overhaul for its 2021 TVs. Highlight a streaming app, and an additional row slides up to reveal recommended picks and what’s streaming. When you hit the remote’s home button, a shortcuts bar with apps, HDMI inputs, and other destinations slides up at the bottom of the screen but doesn’t completely overtake whatever’s on-screen. But LG’s TV interface has grown to be among my favorites for its efficiency at staying out of the way. There’s really not much of a resemblance between the webOS software that runs on LG TVs and the Palm smartphones where the operating system had its beginnings many years ago.
