Philips Café Aromis 8000 Series: two-minute review

The Philips Café Aromis 8000 Series is a premium automatic coffee maker that works brilliantly by itself, and even better when paired with the Philips HomeID mobile app.

The Café Aromis offers a huge menu of over 50 different hot and cold drinks, and encourages you to tinker with brew settings to achieve the flavor you prefer with your chosen beans. You can do this via the large, bright touchscreen, or better yet, through the mobile app, which guides you through your options with an interface styled like an AI chatbot, and saves your preferences to your profile for quick access later. You can even start brewing remotely through the app.

Once you’ve got the brew settings nailed down (including tweaking the grind size using a dial inside the bean hopper), you’ll enjoy consistently delicious hot and cold drinks, with thick and creamy hot or cold milk. The machine has two milk carafes (one for each temperature) and each one disassembles into three pieces of hard plastic that are extremely easy to keep clean without any special tools or solutions.

The Café Aromis is quiet too, and during my tests it was very similar to the Quiet Mark certified KitchenAid KF6 when heating, grinding, and brewing.

It’s hard to find fault with the Café Aromis, and I only noticed a few small quirks during testing. The chute for adding pre-ground coffee and bypassing the grinder has a tendency to steam up during brewing, and must be dried carefully to avoid coffee grounds sticking to the lid. You also have to take care to allow everything to cool down thoroughly before preparing an iced drink, otherwise the milk will be dispensed with a jet of steam and the drink will turn out warm — which isn’t a problem I experienced with the Jura J10 coffee maker.

Overall, the Café Aromis doesn’t just brew excellent coffee — it makes the process fun as well, even if you have no barista experience and don’t know which brew settings you need to change to alter the taste of your coffee. As long as you can describe the flavor you like, the machine will do the rest for you and make it effortless.

Philips Café Aromis 8000 Series: price and availability

• Available in the US and UK, but not yet in Australia
• List price of $1,699.99 / £849.99 (about AU$2,380)
• Cheaper than many similarly-specced automatic coffee makers

Philips unveiled the Café Aromis 8000 Series in March 2026, priced at $1,699.99 / £849.99. That converts to about AU$2,380, but at the time of writing (May 2026) it's not yet available in Australia.

That's certainly not cheap, but nor is it excessively expensive considering how much the Aromis has to offer. It costs around the same as the De'Longhi La Specialista Touch, which currently sits at the top of our roundup of the best coffee makers, and is a semi-automatic model without the automation and customization as the Aromis, or the connectivity.

In terms of features, the Aromis is closer to the Siemens EQ900 Plus, which has a list price of £2,199 (about $2,800 / AU$4,300) and isn't widely available outside Europe. In that contect, the Aromis represents very good value for money.

Philips Café Aromis 8000 Series: design

• Premium look and feel
• Large, bright touchscreen
• Thoughtful design touches

The Cafe Aromis is one of the best-looking coffee machines I’ve ever tested, with a smart brushed metal case, a huge color touchscreen, and even a little real wood on top of the coffee dispenser — a small touch that adds to the premium feel.

There are two carafes — one for foaming hot milk and one for cold — which can be disassembled into three pieces of hard plastic for easy cleaning. There are no awkward tubes to wash, and milk never enters the body of the machine, avoiding buildup of bacteria.

Every part of the machine feels solid and well-engineered. For example, the coffee dispenser moves smoothly up and down to accommodate different sized cups, and can slide extra high if you want to brew directly into a travel mug (one of the options you’ll find in the machine’s extensive menus). The drip tray is deep enough to prevent spills, and has a pouring spout at the back for easy emptying. The case doesn’t attract fingerprints like many I’ve tested.

Even the maintenance hatch is nicely designed, with a hinge so you don’t have to remove it entirely, plus a brewing unit that’s easy to lift out for cleaning. Sometimes I’ve spent a long time wondering how to replace the brew unit in automatic coffee makers, but with the Aromis it only fits one way and slides right into place.

The water tank is easy to remove and replace too, and comes with a water hardness testing strip and a water filter. The machine walks you through the process of testing your tap water and installing the filter during setup, to ensure it’s configured correctly.

The hopper sits on top of the machine, so make sure you have plenty of clearance overhead to access it. It has a tinted plastic lid with a rubber seal, which keeps out air and allows you to check how much coffee is remaining without admitting too much light, helping to keep everything fresh.

You’ll also find a chute at the front of the hopper, where you can add pre-ground coffee if you want a break from your usual beans. Just use the measuring scoop provided to ensure you get the correct dosage, and remember that you can’t adjust the strength of your drink if you do so — just the volume and temperature.

Philips Café Aromis 8000 Series: performance

• Hot and cold espresso and milk foam
• Consistent results
• Excellent mobile app
• Quiet heating, grinding, and brewing

As I’ve come to expect from Philips, the Café Aromis 8000 Series produces consistently excellent coffee, and although you’re spoilt for choice with a menu of over 50 hot and cold drinks, they are all broken down into sub-menus so it’s easy to find exactly what you want. Start by picking hot or cold coffee with or without milk, then peruse the various options.

You’ll be prompted to select the type of beans you’re using (arabica or robusta, and the roast level), but you can always tinker with the strength and brew temperature later, tweak the grind size, and adjust the proportions of espresso, water, and milk in longer drinks.

One of the biggest selling points of the Café Aromis is its noise shielding, and during my tests it reached a maximum of 74dB while heating, 68dB when grinding, and 73dB when pumping. It’s certainly not silent, but ranks among the quietest bean-to-cup coffee makers I’ve tested; very similar to the Quiet Mark certified KitchenAid KF6.

Using pre-ground coffee worked well too, though I found that the lid of the chute tended to steam up during brewing, with water condensing on the lid, so I ended up leaving it open between brews so it could dry. It’s not a serious problem, but ground coffee will stick to any residual water, so it’s a little annoying. It’s also worth noting that, unlike some other coffee makers, the Café Aromis can’t detect when you’ve added grounds, so you’ll need to select the option manually before you begin brewing.

The hot and cold milk carafes both produce thick, creamy foam, and during my tests they worked equally well with dairy, oat, and soy milks, which is always good to see. The carafes are very similar to the one used by the Philips LatteGo 5500, but it seems that the designers have solved the problem of milk occasionally missing the cup, as I never experienced this problem with the Café Aromis. Milk arced neatly into the cup even when I didn’t place it perfectly.

The machine’s touchscreen is large, bright, and easy to operate, but for me, the Cafe Aromis really comes into its own when connected to the Philips HomeID app. In my experience, mobile apps don’t usually add much to the experience of using a coffee machine — at most, they typically give usage and maintenance instructions that you could just as easily find in the paper instruction manual. HomeID is different though, and although you can create profiles and customize your favorite drinks using the machine’s interface directly, using the app makes it much easier.

It's well worth installing the Philips HomeID app to get more from your coffee maker (Image credit: Future)

Connecting the Philips Café Aromis to HomeID is straightforward: register yourself with HomeID (or allow it to use your Google account), then give it permission to search for nearby appliances, and add the coffee maker when it’s detected. Enter your Wi-Fi password to complete the pairing, and you’re ready to go. I was prompted to give the coffee maker access to call history, which was a little strange, so I declined and there didn’t seem to be any impact on the app’s functionality.

That done, it’s time to create a profile. After entering your name and choosing a color for easy identification, pick at least four of your favorite drinks, then customize them to suit your tastes and the size of your cups. Next time you want to brew, these will all be available via quick access shortcuts, so you don’t need to spend time poking at the machine’s screen.

Create a profile and you'll be able to set your favorite custom drinks for quick access (Image credit: Future)

Unlike many mobile apps for coffee machines, HomeID also lets you start brewing remotely, which is great if you’re feeling lazy and don’t want to get off the sofa until absolutely necessary. You’ll need to verify that the Café Aromis is positioned in such a way that this will be safe, but once that’s done (and provided you have a cup in place), you can prepare a drink with a couple of taps.

It’s all very well designed, but my favorite app feature is the Barista Assistant, which helps you tinker with the taste of your drinks, even if you don’t have any coffee-making experience. The Assistant looks like an AI chatbot, and asks questions about how you’d like your coffee to taste, then changes the machine’s internal settings for you. I confess that I found my first espresso a little too strong, but I was easily able to tweak it using the Barista Assistant, which then saved my preference for future use.

The only thing that the Barista Assistant can’t control remotely is the grind size, which you can adjust yourself using a dial inside the bean hopper. This has a significant effect on flavor, so it’s worth taking some time to tinker with it if your drink tastes too sour and ‘thin’ (under-extracted) or bitter (over-extracted).

It’s important to take care when brewing cold drinks, however, and ensure the machine has had a chance to cool down if you’ve recently prepared something hot. The first time I tried to make an iced latte macchiato, the drink turned out warm because I started making it too soon after a hot espresso, and the brew group was still hot.

Most importantly, the Café Aromis brews consistently delicious coffee (Image credit: Future)

That, and the condensation in the coffee grounds chute, were my only two quibbles with the Café Aromis, and in my opinion they weren't significant enough to stop it earning a full five stars.

How I tested the Philips Café Aromis 8000 Series

I used the Philips Café Aromis 8000 Series for two weeks with my usual regular and decaffeinated coffee beans, freshly bought from a local coffee roaster. I also used Lavazza ground coffee to test the hopper-bypass function. I used the hot and cold milk carafes with full-fat dairy, and barista-style oat and soy milks.

I tested my tap water using the hardness testing strip included with the coffee maker and adjusted the hardness setting accordingly. I also installed the water filter following the manufacturer's instructions.

I made a wide range of hot and cold coffee drinks, with and without milk, and experimented with customizing them using the settings on board the machine itself, and the Barista Assistant in the mobile app.

LG B6 OLED TV: Two minute review

The LG B6 is the entry-level OLED TV in LG’s 2026 TV lineup. While it provides a brightness boost over its predecessor, the LG B5, which I rated as one of 2025’s best TVs, the LG B6 doesn’t deliver the full and clear upgrade I was hoping for.

The LG B6 has a full suite of features and still delivers great performance, but as long as the LG B5 remains in stock and is less expensive, the new model is held back from being an unqualified pick by a few issues.

The biggest change over the B5 is the B6’s higher brightness. Bright scenes have more impact, highlights are mostly punchier and colors benefit, looking that little more vibrant. Contrast is powerful and appears stronger thanks to the brightness increase, while textures are crisp, as you’d expect from the best OLED TVs.

However, the LG B6 had more of a green tint than its predecessor when compared side-by-side. This meant that despite its improvements, the B6’s picture wasn’t the full step-up over the B5 that I was looking for — it giveth on one hand, and taketh on the other. Viewed in isolation, the B6 is still a great looking TV, though — the thing about slightly color tints is that your eye gets used to them quickly and then you can just focus on the image.

Much like previous years, the B6’s 2.0 channel speaker system is solid for day to day viewing with clear speech and it is accurate with some solid detail for movies. Bass however is limited and the soundstage is narrow. If you’re after the cinematic experience and want the sound to match the picture, I’d add one of the best soundbars.

The B6 is easily one of 2026’s best gaming TVs. It has a full array of features on all four HDMI ports — 4K 120Hz, full variable refresh rate options, HGiG, auto low latency mode, Dolby Vision Gaming — and has four HDMI 2.1 ports. An 8.9ms measured input lag means performance is smooth with razor-sharp response time, and the picture looks superb while gaming. If you’re looking for a gaming OLED, this is an excellent choice.

The webOS 26 smart TV software doesn’t reinvent the wheel compared to webOS 25, but it didn’t need to. What webOS 26 does is make navigation easier with a new menu layout, more Quick Cards and more customization. While the banner ad on the home screen is annoying, it’s the only wrinkle in webOS 26, which I rate as one of the best smart TV platforms on offer.

But as I alluded to above, while I think the B6 is a great TV overall, the B5 is definitely the better option while it’s available. The 65-inch B6 I tested costs $1,999 / £2,399 / AU$3,295 (with a cheaper B6E option available for £1,799 in the UK).

While this is a decent price and similar to the B5’s launch prices, the B6 doesn’t change enough to recommend it over the B5 if you're buying around its launch time. If it's a great-value entry-level OLED you want, I'd spend less on the LG B5.

If you have the budget right now, I’d definitely opt for the LG C6 (65-inch model priced at $2,699 / £2,599 / AU$3,995) as my preferred choice. It's the best upgrade to LG’s OLED lineup in 2026, and provides even better brightness and picture than the B6, but with impeccable colors.

• 77-inch: $,2799 / £TBA / AU$TBA
• 83-inch: $4,499 / £TBA / AU$TBA

The LG B6 is the entry level OLED in LG’s 2026 OLED TV lineup, sitting below the mid-range LG C6 and flagship LG G6 and LG W6 (also known as the Wallpaper). The 65-inch model I tested costs $1,999 / £2,399 / AU$3,295 officially, which is the same launch prices as last year’s LG B5.

It’s worth noting that in some regions there are two LG B6 models: the B65 and the B6E. I asked LG what the differences between the two are, and it said the B6E does not have the following features: Precision Picture Master Pro, Precision Sound Master Pro, and it does not have the marble effect design on the back.

Other than this they should be the same, making the B6E by far the better deal, because I don't particular rate these features, LG's suggestion is that they have the same panel and Dolby Vision support otherwise. A 65-inch LG B6E model costs £1,999 in the UK, a full £400 cheaper.

The B6 has a good number of features, including four HDMI 2.1 ports (Image credit: Future)

• Alpha 8 AI Gen 3 processor is a good mid-range processor
• 4K 120Hz, FreeSync and G-Sync across all four HDMI 2.1 ports
• Higher brightness than the LG B5

The B6 uses a W-OLED panel, much like its predecessor. However, there has been a brightness boost (I’ll get into that below in the Picture Quality section) that would suggest it’s using the new OLED SE panel: a cheaper, brighter WOLED panel that we saw in action in the Panasonic Z86C, which is that company's new entry-level OLED for 2026.

The B6 comes with the Alpha 8 AI Gen 3 processor, which introduces a couple of new picture and sound tools such as the Precision Picture Master Pro and Precision Sound Pro, which both aim to upscale picture and audio respectively. It’s worth noting the B6E, a cheaper B6 model available in some regions including the UK, does not support these features.

The B6 supports Dolby Vision HDR and Dolby Atmos for enhanced audio, but it does not support HDR10+ or DTS, the same as 2025. LG says it currently has no plans to support Dolby Vision 2. The B6 also supports Chromecast and AirPlay 2.

For audio, the B6 has a built-in 2.0 channel, 20W speaker system: the same as the B5 from last year. This year, much like the LG G6 and C6, the number of sound presets has been reduced to four, including AI Sound Pro, and Clear Voice for dialogue enhancement.

The B6 uses webOS 26, which introduces some refined AI features, such as AI concierge which now uses AI companions such as Gemini for lifestyle uses such as planning trips. The menu layout has also been re-ordered in order to prioritize major settings such as Energy Saving and Network.

For gaming, the B6 carries over the same features from the B5: 4K 120Hz, full VRR support including both FreeSync and G-Sync, auto low latency mode and Dolby Vision Gaming, all featured on four HDMI 2.1 ports. Game Optimizer returns with additional settings for gaming, including the Prevent Input Delay option.

LG B6 review: Picture quality

The B6 has some seriously bold colors, shown best in animated movies like Elemental (pictured) (Image credit: Disney / Future )

• Brighter than its predecessor
• Crisp detail and strong contrast
• Green tint visible in some scenes

Starting with measurements, the biggest difference between the B6 and last year’s B5 is the boost in HDR peak brightness. The B6 measured 835 nits in Filmmaker Mode, 895 nits in Cinema mode and 740 nits in Standard mode. These are big jumps over the B5’s 668 nits in Cinema mode and 637 nits in Standard mode.

For fullscreen HDR brightness, the jump hasn’t been quite as significant, with the B6 measuring 154 nits in Cinema Home, compared to 131 nits of the B5 in the same mode. In fact, there was even a drop in Standard mode, with the B6 measuring 150 nits compared to the B5’s 172 nits.

Moving to real-world testing, I found myself switching between Filmmaker Mode and Cinema Home depending on the content. Both picture modes looked good, but Filmmaker Mode suited darker, more contrast-y scenes, while Cinema Home looked great with colors and animation.

The B6 did a good job with SDR content. Watching an HD stream of Fight Club on Disney Plus, it upscaled textures to give them a crisper look and added some brightness that delivered stronger perceived contrast compared to some cheaper TVs I’d done this test on.

With lower-resolution content, such as YouTube videos, the B6 did a decent job upscaling textures and boosting colors to give them a better look, but ultimately the image didn’t hit 4K levels. There is a Precision HDR Master Pro setting in the main B6 model (not the B6E) which did sharpen textures when activated, but it was too artificial for my liking.

Watching a desert scene from Lawrence of Arabia, the white sands of the desert did indeed look brighter on the B6 compared to the B5 when I compared the two side by side, showing the brightness boost was real.

The B6 has received a brightness boost which is best shown in scenes with a lot of white tones, such as the scene from Lawrence of Arabia (pictured) (Image credit: Sony Pictures / Future )

In Dark City, as John is in the automat, the highlights from the overhead lights and the yellow walls also looked brighter on the B6.

However, during my B6 and B5 comparison, the scene from Dark City was the first to tip me off on a potential issue with the B6: green tint. The yellow walls of the automat seemed to have a green hue on them on both the B6 and B5, but it was more noticeable on the new model.

The B6 demonstrated strong contrast with deep dark tones in high contrast scenes. It also had a higher perceived contrast over the B5 thanks to the brightness boost. In The Batman, as Batman wanders the crime scene in Mayor Mitchell’s house, the balance between the light tones from the lamps on the wall and the dark tones of the dark-panel wood walls was excellent.

Unfortunately, The Batman also exemplified the green tint issue on the B6 compared to the B5. In the subway scene, the rear walls looked more green on the B6, looking like the gray I expected on the B5. Maybe I got unlucky with my review unit, but it was definitely worth noting as green tint has been a criticism of LG’s OLED TVs before.

While the B6 shows strong contrast in The Batman (pictured), this subway scene does show the B6 has a green tint — click to see it compared to the B5Warner Bros. / Future The LG B6 (left) and LG B5 (right)Warner Bros / Future

The B6 delivers bold, rich colors that benefitted from the new brightness boost. A Dolby Vision stream of Elemental on Disney Plus really showcased them, with the blues of Wade and his family, and the oranges and reds of Ember dazzling on screen. As Ember mends a vase, the purples and oranges of the new vase glistened, showing strong highlights.

In the ‘Wizard and I’ scene, as Elphaba stands under a tree with pink flowers, said flowers popped on screen, but still had great color depth.

(Image credit: Universal Pictures / Future )

The B6 delivered a measured HDR color gamut coverage of 97.4% of the DCI-P3 and 72.5% of the BT.2020 color spaces. While these aren’t bad results (we have a 95% threshold for DCI-P3, and are generally happy with a score above this), these numbers were oddly lower than the B5’s. The B5 had measured results of 99.5% and 74.85% in the DCI-P3 and BT.2020 color spaces respectively.

Viewed in isolation, the B6’s colors and contrast were actually very good but it just seemed a shame that I knew how good the B5 looked in comparison in some scenes. With the added brightness, I was hoping for a bigger picture upgrade.

Outside of this, the B6 showcased excellent textures, striking a nice balance between crisp and natural. Throughout my testing, people’s skin looked realistic while finer details such as hair appeared refined.

Much like the G6 and the C6, the B6 benefitted from using the TruMotion feature. For movies, Cinematic Movement was more than enough, reducing judder in a panning shot of a cliffside cemetery in No Time To Die. With sports, the Natural motion setting worked better, doing more smoothing and judder reduction which worked better.

The B6’s screen is however prone to mirror-like reflections, especially with darker scenes. Even some brighter, more colorful scenes struggled under our testing lab’s overhead lights in Filmmaker Mode. It would be nice to see some more effective anti-reflection measures brought to the B6, as I know it's possible from my review of the LG G6.

• Picture quality score: 4.5 / 5

LG B6 review: Sound quality

The B6's built-in sound is fine for casual viewing, but are lacking for cinematic scenes like the Batmobile chase from The Batman (Image credit: Warner Bros. / Future )

• 2.0 channel, 20W speakers
• Decent sound overall but definitely benefits from a soundbar
• Fewer sound modes than last year

The B6 comes with a 2.0 channel, 20W speaker system and supports Dolby Atmos (but not DTS). LG has reduced the number of sound presets from previous years, dropping the number from eight to four.

These four presets are Standard, AI Sound Pro, Clear Voice Pro and Sound Wizard. As my go-to Cinema preset had been removed, I opted for my backup: AI Sound Pro.

Watching the Batmobile chase scene from The Batman, the B6 showcased accurate image mapping, accurately following the direction of swerving traffic and the bullet sprays from the Penguin’s gun.

The same was true playing Battlefield V, as the B6’s speakers did a good job picking out subtle effects such as the crunching leaves underfoot in a forest mission.

Speech was clear enough throughout my testing as well, with most dialogue easily audible over the rest of the soundtrack.

Due to its limited 2.0 channel speaker system however, the sound doesn’t match the picture in quality. Bass felt very contained and while there was some rumble as the Batmobile ignited its engine, it felt thin in places.

The soundstage also felt narrow, never truly extending beyond the confines of the screen. Atmos effects, such as the rain in The Batman, felt limited too. I’d recommend a soundbar if you want sound impact to match the quality of the visuals.

• Sound quality score: 3.5 / 5

LG B5 review: Design

The B6's feet are made of plastic, a step down from the B5. Although the B6 still feels well built (Image credit: Future)

• Mostly premium build
• Feet are plastic this year instead of metal
• UK Magic Remote could do with an update

The 65-inch B6 I tested had a mostly premium build and design. It has a trim frame and near bezel-less screen allowing the picture to be the focal point. While it’s a small touch, the marble effect on the rear panel made it feel a little more premium, although it’s again worth noting this is only on the main B6 model and not the cheaper B6E.

One thing I was disappointed to find was that the B6 unit I was testing had plastic feet, compared to the B5’s metal feet. While the plastic feet were more than sturdy enough, it did detract from the B6’s overall premium design.

LG’s Magic Remote hasn’t had many updates in recent years in the UK other than the re-arranging and addition and removal of certain buttons, with the AI button taking center stage this year, and it could do with a refresh.

The US has the sleeker AI Smart Remote, but again when brands like Sony, Philips and Hisense offer more heavy duty, metal remotes, LG’s offering could be a bit more premium.

• Design score: 4 / 5

LG B6 review: Smart TV & menus

LG's webOS 26 is easily one of the best smart TV platforms around (Image credit: Future)

• Uses LG's webOS 26 smart TV platform
• Streamlined menus and more Quick Cards for easy navigation to key options
• Ads are annoying, but equivalent to other platforms

The B6 uses LG’s own webOS 26 as its smart TV platform. While webOS 25 was about the introduction of AI features — such as AI Concierge, for content recommendation and information, and AI Search, for advanced content searching — webOS 26 looks at refining menus for easier navigation while adding some new features.

Quick Cards, a place where relevant apps are organized by categories such as Sports, Game and Office, are back and some new ones have been added including Learning.

The Quick Menu, where picture and sound modes can be altered super-quickly without getting deep into menus, continues to be one of the webOS’ standout features.

webOS 26 is also very easy to navigate, with an intuitive menu layout that’s been re-organized for this year to make access to settings such as Energy Saving and Network easier, and these small changes have made navigation even smoother.

Unfortunately, the home page still features a large banner ad space at the very top of the screen which does push down the apps a bit. This is fairly common among modern smart TV platforms however and this is my only real complaint with webOS 26. It’s still one of the best OS on the market.

LG B6 review: Gaming

The B6 is a superb gaming TV, expertly handling fast-paced games like Battlefield V (pictured) (Image credit: Future)

• 4K 120Hz and full variable refresh rate support
• 8.9ms input lag at 60Hz, 4.9ms at 120Hz
• Excellent features and performance

The B6 comes with a full suite of gaming features including 4K 120Hz, variable refresh rate including both AMD FreeSync and Nvidia G-Sync, HGiG HDR, auto low latency mode, and Dolby Vision Gaming, with all features supported across four HDMI 2.1 ports.

The B6 had a measured input lag time of 8.9ms at 4K 60Hz (in Boost mode), which is a superb result and up there with the very best gaming TVs. It registered a 4.9ms input lag at 1080p 120Hz.

Gaming performance on the B6 is excellent. Playing a mission in Battlefield V, the B6 handled the chaotic gunfights which involved a lot of quick movement and targeting with ease, with inputs feeling very smooth. As I flew around the desert in a plane, the sudden changes in flight path felt effortless and intuitive.

Battlefield V also looked great on the B6, delivering some nice brightness during the desert mission, with the sun on the horizon showing the B6’s strong HDR highlights. Textures were crisp with some nice detail in the weapons and environments as well.

LG B6 review: Value

The Magic Remote (UK version shown here) could do with an upgrade (Image credit: Future)

• Great features and good performance
• Not the clear upgrade I wanted
• B5 is the better option while available, C6 is better when prices are close

The B6 is an interesting TV when it comes to value. The 65-inch model I tested costs $1,999 / £2,399 / AU$3,295, while the 65-inch LG C6 step-up TV currently costs $2,699 / £2,599 / AU$3,995, meaning the B6 has a good price gap in US and Australia, but it’s close in the UK — too close, frankly.

There's a good reason to choose the B6 instead of the C6 in the UK and Aus when you're saving that much, but in the UK I'd absolutely choose the C6 given the close prices. That's complicated by the existence of the cheaper B6E, which a 65-inch costs £1,799: excellent value for a brand new OLED that size.

That being said, the B6 isn’t the full upgrade I wanted over the B5, unlike the C6 which is a superb upgrade over its predecessor, the C5. While the B6 delivers higher brightness and still excellent picture quality, it has some picture inconsistencies (particularly the green tint) so you're trading improvements in one area to steps back in another.

As a result, while the B5 is still available, I’d recommend it over the B6. A 65-inch B5 currently costs $999 / £1,199 / AU$2,199, which is a steal for that TV. Stock does seem to be dwindling in some regions already however, and when it disappears, the B6 is worthy of taking its place once it drops in price to the same kind of level.

Ultimately if you want a real upgrade, the C6 is the top dog but if it’s not in your budget, the B6 is still a very good TV.

The B6's predecessor, the B5 delivers a lot of similar features and performance for a fraction of the cost. While the B6 delivers higher brightness, it's not the big upgrade I was hoping for. The B5 is definitely the better option while it's still available.

LG C6
The LG C6 is the step-up model from the B6 and while it is pricier, it's also a much bigger upgrade, thanks to a new processor, much higher brightness and better accuracy. While the B5 and C5 weren't totally different, the C6 and the B6 are. If you have the budget, the C6 is worth the investment.

How I tested the LG B6 OLED TV

(Image credit: Future)

• Tested in different lighting conditions over a couple of weeks
• Tested using both HDR and SDR sources
• Measurements taken using Portrait Displays' Calman color calibration software

The first steps for my testing was to do some casual viewing to establish which picture modes were the best for the LG B6. I found that both Filmmaker Mode and Cinema Home worked for movies, depending on the type of movie, whereas Standard worked best for sports.

Once this was done, I started my critical viewing using some reference scenes I use for testing, including HDR (4K Blu-ray and streaming) and SDR (DVD, YouTube, broadcast TV) sources. I also used Prime Video and HBO Max to test sports on the B6.

I used these scenes to analyze the B6's picture, focusing on color, accuracy, contrast, detail, motion, upscaling and more. I also used other scenes to test the B6's built-in speakers.

For 4K Blu-ray, I used a Panasonic DP-UB820 4K Blu-ray player and for gaming I used and Xbox Series X.

Moving on to objective testing I used specizlied equipment to take measurements of the B6. This included a Klein K-10A colorimeter, a Murideo Six G 8K Metal test pattern generator and Portrait Displays' Calman color calibration software to record measurements.

Brightness measurements were taken using both HDR and SDR white window patterns ranging in size from 1-100%, with a focus on 10% and 100% windows, for peak and fullscreen brightness, respectively. I also tested the B6's grayscale and color accuracy, taking an average of the Delta-E values (the margin of error between the test pattern source and what's shown on screen), looking for a result below 3.

I also tested the B5's coverage of the UHDA-P3 and BT.2020 color spaces. Finally, I used a Leo Bodnar 4K HDMI Input lag Tester to test the B5's input lag in milliseconds.

I also recorded the B6's HDR EOTF results with 1,000, 4,000 and 10,000 nits targets. I also used a Jeti Spectral 15a to take the B6's Spectral Power Distribution.

Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike: Two-minute review

(Image credit: Future)

I should probably preface this review by saying that I've long been a fan of Logitech's mice, having used a G502 Lightspeed Wireless as my daily driver for more than five years. In fact, I love it so much that when mine finally gave up the ghost back in 2024, I literally just bought another identical model.

If you're familiar with my work, you might suspect a slight degree of bias in this review – and I'm sure that the coveted five-star rating above won't assuage those suspicions.

But honestly? I wasn't expecting much from the Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike. The design is pretty simple, just a near-symmetrical chassis with two thumb buttons and a basic scroll wheel, plus a mildly futuristic aesthetic that you'll either find appealing or obnoxious. I've seen a hundred mice like this before, I thought upon unboxing it for the first time.

That was before I knew about HITS. The 'haptic inductive trigger system' is the main selling point of the Pro X2 Superstrike, and it's really something special: user-tunable actuation for the two main mouse buttons, with rapid trigger reset points to minimize latency. In other words, you can personally tweak the tactility of these clickers to exactly how you want them to feel, and it's frankly awesome. It's reminiscent of the satisfying feedback of hall effect buttons, and the mechanics behind it are similar as well, but I'll get into that later on in this review.

HITS aside (but really, these buttons absolutely rock), the Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike is just a staggeringly competent piece of hardware design. The rounded, symmetrical shape is very comfortable in the hand, and the total package weight of just 61g combined with smooth-gliding UHMWPE feet makes it feel great to use even on lower sensitivities. But with a 44,000 DPI sensor and 8K polling rate mode, it's well-equipped for fans of twitchy online shooters.

I'm just gonna say it: this is straight up one of the best gaming mice money can buy right now. Speaking of money...

Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike: Price & availability

• How much does it cost? $179.99 / £159.99 / AU$299.95
• When is it available? Available now
• Where can you get it? Available globally

Yeah, this hurts a little. Clocking in at $179.99 / £159.99 / AU$299.95, there's no avoiding the fact that a lot of PC gamers will be priced out of enjoying the perfect clicks of the Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike.

It's similarly priced to the Razer Deathadder V4 Pro, which we featured in our list of the best mice, and is a comparable premium esports-focused mouse with a simple, lightweight design – though it uses optical switches instead, which are durable and responsive but a lot noisier.

However – and it's not often that I say this – I do actually think this is a product that manages to fully justify its price tag. The Superstrike is something entirely new, but even aside from that, it's simply an excellent product in almost every way.

Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike: Design

• Simple but comfortable design
• Robust build quality
• No left-handed version

FutureFutureFutureFuture

I suspect that the ultra-modern design of the Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike will be a turn-off for some potential buyers, but I like it. No rainbow RGB here, just a lone LED indicating your DPI preset. Stamping the product name all over the device makes it feel like something out of a utilitarian corporate dystopia – a vibe I'm fine with for my hardware aesthetic, though I'd rather steer clear from a societal standpoint.

Aesthetics aside, the chassis design isn't anything particularly earth-shattering, but you don't mess with a proven winner. The shape is essentially the same as Logitech G's previous Pro X Superlight 2, a symmetrical design with a gentle curve across it that fits comfortably in the palm. I've got pretty big hands, so I asked my (smaller-handed) partner to give it a try, and he reported that it felt very comfortable to use as well. I might say that the shape is somewhat better suited to claw- and fingertip-style grips, but as a palm-grip user, I found it comfortable even during extended gaming sessions.

(Image credit: Future)

Despite weighing barely more than 60 grams, the Pro X2 Superstrike doesn't feel flimsy in the slightest. The whole thing feels well-constructed, with a physical power switch and magnetic cover on the underside that conceals a slot to store the USB dongle. The feet are UHMWPE, tough and low-friction, and a small cutout at the front of the mouse houses the USB-C port for charging or wired use.

The main buttons have a weighty, tactile feel to them, while the scroll wheel offers firm rotation and a quiet but robust click. The side buttons are a bit softer, but still have a decent level of physical feedback and are well-spaced – I often like to map actions to these thumb buttons in shooters, and I didn't experience any misclicks. The mouse is very slightly front-heavy, presumably due to the HITS switch assembly underneath the two main buttons, and while I didn't have any issues with this, users who regularly lift their mouse clear of the mat may find that it requires a bit of getting used to.

The sensor is the Logitech G HERO 2 sensor, found in a wide range of the brand's premium gaming mice. It supports up to 44,000 DPI with up to 88G acceleration registration, and I can attest from using other mice with the same sensor that it's very reliable. For those seeking the absolute best low-latency performance, the box includes an adapter for you to connect the dongle to the power cable and place it directly on your desk, but it worked fine just plugged into the back of my PC, too.

The matte plastic shell does a good job of repelling fingerprint smudges (even from my sweaty hands during a heatwave that hit the UK while I was reviewing the Pro X2 Superstrike), and the casing is generally sturdy. It feels like a product that was built to last. Honestly, my only criticism here is the lack of a left-handed model; I'm a southpaw myself, and while I've adapted to using a mouse with my right hand, the same can't be said of every left-hander out there.

Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike: Performance

• HITS switches are truly phenomenal
• Fast and smooth movement is great for shooters
• Logitech G Hub software works well

(Image credit: Future)

Alright, let me talk about these switches properly for a moment. The way HITS works is essentially the same principle as hall effect keyboard switches, using metal plates and copper coils carrying an electromagnetic current with an analog sensor that precisely measures the click input.

Now, this means that you get incredibly fast input response, on par with the optical switches that are becoming more popular in gaming mice, but the real takeaway here is the adjustable actuation. Because you're not pressing a physical switch but rather moving a bit of metal up and down, you can use Logitech's G Hub software to manually adjust the actuation point. If you want hair-trigger actuation, it's yours. Prefer only firm, deep clicks to register? It can do that too, and everything in between.

The HITS design also allows you to adjust the trigger reset points (put simply, how soon the button can register another input when you start to lift your finger after clicking), and with no physical switch involved, the Pro X2 Superstrike allows for ultra-rapid-fire inputs. If you're using a semi-automatic gun, the only limit on fire rate is whatever the game itself imposes.

(Image credit: Future)

Without an actual switch to click underneath these buttons, there's no tactile feedback. In fact, when I first received the Pro X2 Superstrike and clicked the buttons before turning it on, I was immediately worried that it would feel horrible to use. That's where the 'haptic' part of 'haptic inductive trigger system' comes in: when you click, the button releases a tiny vibration that mimics the click input of a traditional mouse. It sounds silly, but it genuinely works - and like the actuation and trigger resets, you can adjust this too, or even turn it off if you're so inclined. But I wouldn't – it's really quite good once you get used to it.

The best part? They're ridiculously quiet. If you're noise-sensitive or you're a late-night gamer like me, a near-silent mouse is a genuine boon. In fact, Logitech, if you're reading this: please make a G502 with HITS (and then send it directly to my home address). I adore the Superstrike, but I do miss my thumb rest for everyday work.

(Image credit: Future)

Alright, enough about the HITS. Overall, the Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike feels excellent for gaming, gliding smoothly across my mouse mat and delivering precise, latency-free inputs thanks to the Logitech Lightspeed dongle.

The G Hub software gives you plenty of sliders to slide, letting you adjust the usual settings like sensitivity and polling rate, as well as create profiles for individual games depending on your preferences. The 8K polling mode is something of a gimmick that likely won't make much of a difference to all but the sweatiest esports lovers, but it's there if you want it (though it's oddly not available in wired mode; you have to use the included dongle).

I stuck with the defaults for most of the games I tested, but I did make custom profiles for Valorant and Marathon to make the most of the super-reactive HERO 2 sensor. You can also map button input combos as macros, which was particularly useful for adjusting the DPI manually, as there's no dedicated DPI button here.

(Image credit: Future)

Did it make me better at shooting? No, my aim is still aggressively mid, but I certainly felt better playing with the Pro X2 Superstrike. After tweaking the HITS actuation to accept feather-touch inputs with an equally low reset point and strong haptic feedback, plinking hostile players at range with a precision rifle in Marathon felt gratifying.

The battery life is also solid, with Logitech claiming 90 hours of use on a single charge. I found this held up; I charged the mouse to full after unboxing it, and it was still kicking after a week of work and gaming.

How I tested the Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike

I traded out my usual Logitech G502 Lightspeed Wireless for the Pro X2 Superstrike for a total of eight days while putting together this review, and guess what... I'm still using it. Not for everyday work (I value a thumb rest too much for that), but it's currently perched on the corner of my desk for whenever I load up Marathon or Warframe.

During my eight-day testing period, I used the Superstrike for both my regular day-to-day work for TechRadar (which, in mouse-specific terms, mostly involves a lot of clicking on links and highlighting text) and for everything I use my PC for during my off hours. This is mostly gaming, with a bit of mucking about in Discord and Scrivener for personal projects. Aside from the games I've already mentioned in this review, I also tested the Pro X2 Superstrike in Overwatch, Apex Legends, and Tiny Tina's Wonderlands (yes, I know I'm late to that particular party – I'll get around to Borderlands 4 eventually).
