It should be HDR upgradeable because odds are that it's just a repackaged LG panel, and LG just announced that their flat 9500 series is coming with HDR built in, and that the curved 9600 series should be HDR upgradeable.

Yes, it's upgradable to HDR.

So, the OLED LG is now starting at £1600. Let's see this screen in a BV11NG

Where do you see aluminium? It's alcantara - didn't you see the sign on one of the Pictures? And it's mentioned in the text too...

I thought I read it's HDR ready. It would be interesting if B&O will update its panel to use OLED - seems like LG is now selling its panel to third party for product release.

That's correct Bill. Both Panasonic and SONY are buying OLED from LG. The thing that I noticed with OLED is the excellent viewing angles. Whereas LCD looked washed out from the side, OLED did not suffer from this. Saying that, LCD has come on a heck of a long way in the last years - helped entirely of course from HD. Try feeding LCD with non-HD and it's still very shocking isn't it :)

Wish B&O gets on board with OLED. We didn't proceed with the Avant 85 because the SD cartoons programs my daughter watches look horrible on the demo. It broke my heart as I dearly wanted a B&O TV but the wife was not impressed. I would be fine paying B&O prices knowing its tech wouldn't be easily eclipsed within the next year. The convenience, sound and stand is absolutely second to non and worth the premium

That being said most SD content would look horrible on an 85 inch screen. You could probably find new cartoons anyway ;-)

I agree though that the stand, and convenience is second to none and also worth the premium.

I would suggest that even official HD broadcaster look ugly on a 75 incher showing their upscaled program!
I do not think that TV technology could solve this problem (lack of data). 

back to topic: at this price I would prefer a B&O TV.
