I just received my 65# B6 OLED and was excited to experience WebOS 3.0.
The reality, however, is disappointing.
The App Store is as limited as under 2.0. LG could not win significant partners since 2014. We are still stuck with Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon.e
and Plex. Plex, however, needs a content server and as such provides only a half-baked solution.
The Music apps like Pandora and Spotify are not of very much value - who wants to run their TV just to listen to music.
DLNA support and network stored movie management options are essentially the same as in 2.0. The UI still wastes critical estate for blown up title lines, and doesn't allow to manage shares in an intuitive manner and still cannot pick up individual network shares.
The rendering of the previews takes forever and even after hours of TV runtime can't produce a complete list. The square shaped preview is outdated compared to other solutions and the overall performance beyond content selection is rather sluggish.
What is really aggravating that most reviewers completely ignore the shortcomings and praise it for a "great UI" (well maybe for the home screen).
SmartTV Remote lost all its advantages compared to the 2014 model. Unintuitive and unappealing the remote looks like any other cheap universal remote. Gee, in Europe and Asia customers at least get a more stylish design compared to the ugly brick in North America.
Bottom line, LG buyers need to consider the additional cost for options like AppleTV or Kodi Box to overcome the limitations along with a better remote (e.g. Logitech Elite) which adds another 300-400$. For a 3K TV a big disappointment.
Would love to hear other buyers impressions.
