Sony Bravia 8 II QD-OLED TV vs LG B5 Series 65" OLED TV

The Sony Bravia 8 II is the better TV for most people. Its QD-OLED panel is brighter and its XR processor handles upscaling and motion better than LG's Alpha 8 Gen2. The LG B5 is the entry rung of LG's OLED line, so it gives you true OLED blacks and four HDMI 2.1 ports for less, but with dimmer output and a plainer picture. Owners of both rate them 4.5 out of 5; reviewers say the Sony's built-in speakers are good enough to skip a soundbar, while the B5's are ordinary.

• Choose the Sony Bravia 8 II if you watch a lot of film and streamed TV in a bright room and want the best picture processing and sound without adding a soundbar.
• Choose the LG B5 if you mostly game and want four HDMI 2.1 ports, G-Sync and VRR at the lowest entry into OLED.
