FLAGSHIP OLED SHOOTOUT
Panasonic Z95B vs LG G6 — Hollywood vs LG Flagship
By Rick Baron · SWAT A/V · 28 years of installs · Updated 2026-05-29
★ Rick's bottom line
G6 for most buyers · Z95B for color purists who do their homework
G6 is the safer recommendation — wider availability, included Gallery Mount, webOS 26, 4× HDMI 2.1, easier service. Z95B wins for buyers who: value Hollywood reference-monitor tuning, want decent built-in audio (Technics speakers), shop street prices ($300-700 cheaper at retail), don't mind Fire TV OS. The mount catch is real: Z95B 65" uses 300×300 VESA — verify before buying.
