Samsung S85F OLED 4K Smart TV vs LG B5 Series OLED TV

Both are 55-inch 4K OLEDs with 120Hz panels, so picture quality is close. The Samsung S85F adds four full-bandwidth HDMI 2.1 ports, anti-glare coating, Google Assistant and Alexa, and Tizen's app set. The LG B5 runs webOS, has a strong built-in streaming lineup and is the simpler pick for LG loyalists. Buy the Samsung for a bright room or multiple consoles; buy the LG if you want webOS and Alexa only.

  • Choose the LG B5 if you prefer webOS and its app layout, only need Alexa, and want the straightforward LG OLED experience.

Questions and answers

Which is better for gaming?
The Samsung S85F. All four of its HDMI ports handle 4K at 120Hz, so a console and a PC can both run at full speed without swapping cables. The LG B5 also has a 120Hz OLED panel, but its port layout is less clear.
Which handles a bright room better?
The Samsung S85F, because it has an anti-glare coating. The LG B5 does not list one, so reflections will be more visible in a sunny room.
Do both support Google Assistant?
No. The Samsung S85F supports Google Assistant and Alexa. The LG B5 lists Alexa only.
Which has the better smart TV system?
It comes down to preference. Tizen on the Samsung is feature-dense with Samsung TV Plus. webOS on the LG is simpler and puts Netflix, Prime Video, YouTube and Disney+ up front.
Is the LG B5 worth stepping up to a larger size?
If you want a bigger screen, yes. The B5 comes in 55, 65 and 83 inches, while the S85F is listed at 55 inches only.
Which lasts longer?
Both use OLED panels with similar lifespans. Burn-in risk depends on content, not brand, so vary what you watch and avoid static logos for hours.
