Get the most out of your LG OLED with these recommended picture, motion, and sound settings. Based on weeks of testing the LG C6 OLED, I'll show you the adjustments I made to improve brightness, shadow detail, motion handling, and audio. While this guide focuses on the LG C6, many of these settings also apply to the 2026 LG B6 and G6 OLED TVs. If you just picked up a new LG OLED, these are the first settings you should change.
