Our take on the LG OLED55B68LA

The LG OLED55B68LA is a 55-inch 4K OLED smart TV with a 120 Hz panel and support for refresh rates up to 165 Hz. OLED gives it per-pixel light control, so blacks are true black and contrast is far beyond what LCD sets in its class manage. It runs LG's webOS smart platform with Wi-Fi, Ethernet and Bluetooth, and it carries the usual HDMI and tuner inputs for cable, satellite and antenna. It suits movie watchers and console gamers who want deep contrast and fast motion in a mid-size living room; against LCD rivals it trades peak brightness for black level and viewing angle.

Questions and answers

Is OLED worth it over an LCD TV at this size?

OLED switches each pixel off individually, so blacks are absolute and contrast is deeper than any LCD at this size. The trade-off is lower peak brightness, so a very bright room favors LCD.

Does it support 120 Hz gaming?

Yes. The panel is natively 120 Hz and the set accepts refresh rates up to 165 Hz, which suits current consoles and fast PCs.

What is in the box?

The TV, its stand and the standard accessories. A wall mount is not included; the set uses a 300 x 200 mm VESA pattern.

Can I wall-mount it?

Yes. It has a VESA 300 x 200 mm mounting pattern and a flat panel, so most standard brackets fit.

Does it have smart apps and streaming?

Yes. It is a Smart TV with Wi-Fi, Ethernet and Bluetooth, so streaming apps run on the set without extra hardware.

Is burn-in a concern?

OLED panels can retain static images over long periods. Varying content and avoiding hours of fixed logos or tickers reduces the risk.
