Our take on the LG 55" Class B5 Series OLED AI 4K UHD Smart webOS TV (2025)

The LG B5 is LG's entry-level 2025 OLED, a 4K flat panel with a 120 Hz refresh rate and webOS smart apps. It uses a standard OLED panel rather than the brighter OLED evo panel found on the C5, so it suits dimmer rooms and budget-minded buyers. It supports Alexa and the usual streaming apps, and has four HDMI ports. Pricing varies by size and store; check the current price against its recent range before buying.
