LG OLED C6 55-65″ OLED (2016)

LG's 2016 curved OLED has three HDMI inputs, all capped at 4K@60Hz, and it still plays passive 3D with Dolby Vision and HDR10 on top. HDMI 2 carries the original ARC, not eARC, so lossless Dolby TrueHD from a 4K Blu-ray player can't travel back to a soundbar over it: run the player through the soundbar or AV receiver first, or use the optical output for Dolby Digital 5.1. Of the three USB ports, one is USB 3.0, so that's the one for an external drive. Here's every port and the cables you'll need.

2016 LG OLED C6 curved OLED with passive 3D support (last generation). HDR, Dolby Vision.
