Our take on the LG Class B5 Series OLED AI 4K Smart webOS TV 48-inch

The LG B5 is an entry-level OLED that delivers the deep blacks and infinite contrast typical of the technology. It features a 120Hz refresh rate and HDMI 2.1 support, making it a strong contender for gaming compared to standard LED TVs. While it lacks the peak brightness of the higher-end C-series, it offers a similar smart TV experience with webOS and integrated voice assistants.
