Maybe but what usually happens is they just sell out. Not sure the previous year's model, B6V, came down below this price.

They are already £1k less than they were at release. They will just sell out rather than price plummet.

They look to be selling out, I just ordered one at £1430, as its a great deal. The new one is going to be £2500 plus. After a hands on with the new one, here is what Reviewed.com said- think I'd rather have the £1k + in my pocket-

"Fact is, like CNET's David Katzmaier already said, 2017 OLED buyers just aren't going to have buyer's remorse. The new features are very welcome, but are not a compelling reason to upgrade. Likewise, adding more HDR format support (such as Technicolor HDR or Hybrid-Log Gamma) is a professional or specialist requirement that almost doesn't impact consumers at all."

Think JL better bet for the sake of a £100?

Techradar's review, again suggesting the 1k+ off these last of line 7 sets are a bargain-

"The LG Signature OLED W8 (OLED65W8) doesn’t rewrite the book on LG OLED panels - in fact, there’s no tangible improvement to the panel from last year to this year. But, that being said, several improvements to the software side of things, including a larger look-up table and Google Assistant, make this year’s W8 a serious contender in the upcoming battle for ‘best TV of 2018’.


FOR

• More vivid colors
• Google Assistant built-in
• Dolby Atmos soundbar
• Four types of HDR

AGAINST

• Same panel as last year
• No increase in brightness
• Soundbar is still 4.2"

Pocket Lint say:
" (About the 8 series) We were privvy to various demos showing off this enhanced processing. It's certainly an improvement, but the jump between 2017 and 2018 models isn't huge. Yes, banding is better handled and there's less shimmer in fine detail of moving subjects compared to the 2017 model. But it's a relatively minor jump."

Someone mentioned over on avforums that these are going up by £300 on Mon/Tues.A Richer Sounds manager told him,and it was confirmed by someone else.

Does anyone know if Selfridges offers a good warranty in case something goes wrong with the TV?

They will be £500 soon. I’ve only just upgraded to a flat, TV is terrible these days.

This was £1299 in currys and JL a couple month ago .. they will be going down in price soon as other brands are jumping on the OLED bandwagon .. still not a bad price, better than 1499 they are now else where

Brightness not an issue. When you have true black the brightness (nits level) does not need to be so high. Either way brightness is fine...

Does anybody think there will be screenburn issues with this set? Ive read conflicting things already. Theres a lot of Fifa played and sky sports watched in this house so its putting me off getting one.

It amazes me that in 2018 people are still complaining about the 'undeserving poor' having flat screen tv's - you actually want them to have boxy crt TV's? Why not just accept that it hurts you to see others have nice things?

The poor are actually wealthier than than rich in many ways, however its common sense to live within your means.

It doesn't happen like that, stock just disappears. I missed out on the KS7500 Samsung range last year thinking prices will completely bottom out, but they don't! Stock dries up and it will just show OOS everywhere

Fancy a little side-bet on that?
From what I'm reading, there is no need for a further reduction in price as stock will have depleated before the need to "shift" these units in preparation for the 2018 models.
I'm not saying there will not be the "odd reduction" as a store has a couple left to shift, however I will be extremely surprised if we see a widespread drop in pirce on this.

Think this is the OLED that tempts me to jump from my 8yr old Panasonic plasma G20. Great price.

@STUkrugen - You won’t be disappointed. I’ve been disappointed with all the LCD TV’s which never looked as good as my old Pioneer and Panasonic Plasma. I was sad to sell my 2004 Pioneer 43” (720P) which still looked stunning compared to most modern TVs.

The LG OLEDs are truly stunning though. Planet Earth 2 on 4K BluRay with HDR is gorgeous and the detail and highlights have to be seen. WebOS is easy to use and the built in Apps work well.
