Our take on the LG Class B5 Series OLED AI 4K Smart webOS TV 83-inch

The LG B5 is LG's entry-level OLED line, sold in sizes from 48 to 83 inches. It uses a self-lit OLED panel with a 120 Hz refresh rate, 4K resolution and HDR, plus LG's webOS smart platform with Google Assistant, Alexa and Siri support. Compared with LG's brighter C and G series, the B5 gives up some peak brightness and processing power but keeps the deep blacks, wide viewing angles and near-instant response that make OLED strong for movies and gaming. It suits buyers who want true OLED picture quality without stepping up to LG's premium tiers.
