Also, looks like the B6 has an identical panel to the high end range and the only differences are no sound bar and 3D. This is perfect for me as I have no need for these, just a 2d picture I'm interested in..

This tickled me with the following extract: the OLED65G6P, the South Korean brand is sure to finally win over video enthusiast users who’re still holding on to their last-generation plasmas.

Are you sure?

Sure of what?
The B6 is the same as the E6 and G6 but without the 3D and sound bar. Apparently this is correct but it does have a different processor. What does this mean with the different processor? What does it do? Cheers.

Does it have a different processer? Extract from HdTV test and can't see where it says it has a different processor:

While we were delighted and relieved with what we saw last month, we held out on publishing an actual review until we could spend time with a retail unit, for obvious reasons. Thanks to our friends at Value Electronics in Scarsdale, NY (who were, among other specialist retailers, chosen by LG for advance access to its latest Signature OLED product), we’ve had the opportunity to calibrate and critically assess a number of individual units from the 2016 G6 range, and eventually purchase one ourselves for testing. According to LG, the lower-down E6 series features the exact same video performance, and only lacks the G6’s Harman Kardon soundbar, and features one less HDMI input (for a total of 3 rather than 4). Therefore, we wouldn’t be surprised if the E6 finds favor with our audience of video enthusiasts who will already own their own sound systems and have plentiful inputs on A/V receivers, anyway.

For context, there are two more OLED TV ranges below the E6, namely the LG B6 and C6. The C6 is curved so will probably be written off by most of our readers, who have overwhelmingly told us of their preference for flat displays. The B6, 2016’s cheapest OLED model, lacks 3D capabilities and of course the high-end soundbar, but is rumored to also include the same panel, which would make sense from a manufacturing/economies of scale perspective. That display could end up being 2016’s best bang for buck/euro/pound, but we’ll need to wait a little longer before we can scientifically assess it.

subject to future reviews I think this will be the tv (B6) for me and I'll be shifting the VT onto our chimney breast in our bedroom, and the Panasonic 46"PZ pdp will be replacing our 26" grundig lcd in the conservatory. I might put the lcd in our garage for when I'm tinkering with my mountain bike :)

Thats what they are saying on the LG 2016 OLED thread on AVForums.

I might buy one from John Lewis and see how it compares to mine.

It's like your Panasonic OLED. LG screen but with a different processor.
Ah right, a big difference then.
