TCL 55" S41CG 4K Google TV vs LG OLED B6E 4K Smart TV

The LG B6E is the better TV for picture quality and gaming: OLED gives true blacks, per-pixel contrast and wide viewing angles, and its 120Hz panel with G-Sync and FreeSync Premium suits consoles and PCs. The TCL S41CG is a solid budget 4K LED set with Google TV, three HDMI ports and Dolby Atmos decoding, and its 4.5 rating across thousands of ratings shows owners are mostly satisfied. Reviewers of the LG praise the picture and design but flag inconsistent sound; the TCL's LED panel cannot match OLED contrast and its 60Hz panel limits fast gaming.

• Choose the TCL S41CG if you want a big-screen 4K Google TV for everyday streaming and broadcast in a bright room, and OLED contrast is not worth the step up to you.
• Choose the LG B6E if you watch movies in a dim room, game on a console or PC, or sit off-axis, and you want the deeper blacks and smoother motion OLED delivers.
