LG B4 4K OLED TV vs LG C5 OLED evo 4K Smart TV
Buy the C5 if you want the better picture and gaming set. Its OLED evo panel with Brightness Booster is brighter than the B4's standard OLED, and the α9 Gen8 chip handles upscaling and processing better than the B4's α8. The C5 also adds 144Hz, G-Sync, FreeSync Premium, Wi-Fi 6 and Dolby Atmos, while the B4 tops out at 120Hz, Wi-Fi 5 and 20W stereo sound. The B4 is the sensible pick if you mainly watch movies and stream, and you don't need the extra brightness or gaming features. Owners of both praise the picture; C5 buyers single out the 144Hz smoothness and brightness, while B4 owners accept dimmer HDR highlights as the trade-off for the lower tier.
- Choose the LG B4 if you want a solid OLED for movies and streaming and don't need 144Hz, G-Sync or the extra brightness.
- Choose the LG C5 if you game on a PC or console, watch in a bright room, or want the better processor and Dolby Atmos.
