While it's not 4K yet, the video quality has been exceptional for everything that has come out since launch. Looks better than I would expect full HD to look.
Not sure if it's been mentioned here (on this thread), but for those annoyed HBO Max not being available on LG TVs you can access it via Amazon Prime, which is available on the LG CX.
That is how I watch CBS All-Access, through Amazon. Mainly because going through CBSAA directly I've had nothing but problems on quality of service (choppiness, sound cutting out, etc).

While subscribing to the HBO Channel right now gets you access to HBO Max (basically letting you sign in using Amazon the same way you can sign in via Verizon), the HBO Channel content on actual Amazon Prime is not the same as HBO Max and doesn't have HBO Max exclusive content, like "Raised by Wolves" for example, so I HIGHLY doubt you're going to be seeing WW84 or any of the Warner film stuff through the Amazon HBO Channel, particularly since part of the deal for getting HBO Max on the Fire TV hardware was to eventually not have the HBO Channel at all anymore.

I would certainly hope it would be the same content, as when I tried to watch one of the HBO movies last night (on Amazon Prime), it asked me to subscribe to HBO Max for $14.99 (I don't have Max yet) or Sign In. So it appeared to be subscribing to actual HBO Max. Which if you did so, through Amazon Prime or otherwise, should give you the same content.
Pretty sure actual Max Original content and all other HBO Max exclusive content like the TCM movies or Gibli movies can only be viewed through the actual HBO Max app. Amazon Channels just gives you access to watch base HBO content on their Prime app.
Ex: Search for Flight Attendant or Raised By Wolves on the Prime app. They do not appear as an available item for you to watch or purchase.

HBO Max Highlights - January 2021 | Pressroom

🚨 Ed Edd n eddy 🚨
That's a good month for DC content and Cartoon Network content.
Batman The Animated Series coming next month is huge.
Also looks like Bridge To Terabithia will leave HBO Max next month then head to Disney+
Well, that's disappointing.
I can go through my PS4 Pro I guess, but would really like to watch the 4K/HDR programming that is soon to be released on HBOMax. But it seems HBO is not interested at all in doing so for LG owners.
I somehow completely missed Batman Beyond when I did my first run through of the list. I'm so ashamed. That's been one of the big ones I've wanted on HBO Max for a long time now.
Also for that one person: Minor UI Update! The Hub Section now has a "Max Originals" section. (This may have been added days ago and I missed it. But figured I'd point it out.)

I would set my expectations for 4K to be limited to the new releases showing up on Max and in theaters same day.
For anyone using the app on a Fire Stick 4K, are the subtitles funky for you too? They appear on the far left or right of the screen and formatted as such that it's only a few words before dropping to a second line. It's distracting so I turned them off.
The Firestick version is apparently glitched. The restart button is now gone but it's there on other devices that are also on 50.8
Thanks.
Hopefully the app has no issue with the 4K HDR content.
No, HBO Max's home page specifically says 12pm EST/9am PST the movie will be available.
Per the press release that was released today, it's being added to selected titles on the 1st and throughout the month. They could start adding them early tomorrow though
I have a Roku Ultra I bought Thanksgiving of 2019 that apparently does not support 4k or HDR for HBOmax. (4661 I think). Meanwhile I have a Streaming Stick+ I bought in August of 2019 that ought to (it's on the list) support 4k and hdr on HBOmax but not Atmos. Lame. I've been wanting a new Roku Ultra as it supports dolby vision and would want to use it wired. If I had known about this even a week ago, I would have bought one. (Of course webOS/LG support would be better.)
I just read this and I don't even know how you could fuck this up so bad.
Dang, so my xbox, ps5, and LG are out, I have a roku TV but obviously I'd wanna use my LG oled.
I'm already annoyed at FUBO not supporting Samsung OS with 4K streams.
They are the #1 brand worldwide but I guess most people don't care so they will deal with the vocal minority being pissed.
The vanilla HD does look pretty good even on my massive Samsung Premiere but this is not exactly getting my monies worth.

I finished Alien and wow what a film. The directing, acting, and editing was so good. However, there were some weird things that stood out. One was Ripley's nose bleeding out of nowhere and the second was Parker knowing what the Alien looked like after it killed Brett. Parker was nowhere near the attack so how did he know? Cameras?
We literally said a few pages above your post 12pm EST/9am PST. They say it on the HBO Max home page too.
