Hey everyone.

I found two great deals that expire tomorrow and need advice whether to pull the trigger or not.

One deal is last years LG OLED B6 65 inch for 1680€, down from 2900€.

The other one is the newer LG OLED B7 55 inch for 1580€.

Both are new and not exposition models.

I would prefer the bigger 65 inch model, but maybe this years model improves on many of the OLED issues like brightness? Also the new model has Dolby Atmos I think.

My current TV is a Sony Bravia 48 inch FHD from 11 years ago. It's great, but only has two HDMI ports, no smart TV features (although I have a PS4 for YouTube and Plex). No USB ports either. I'd like also to be able to record TV and all.

They both have HDR10 and HDR Dolby Vision, but the 2017 B7 has 5 types of HDR, so that's also an advantage I guess.

On the other hand, there's a 2017 55 inch Samsung TV with 10 bit panel and HDR10 for 948€ too, another great deal, but I'll only pull the trigger for OLED. I think I can hold off with my current TV for more time if the option is a new LED TV.

Since these two deals on OLED are this good then that's why I'm thinking about it. Only have until tomorrow to decide.

Thanks for any help and advice!
