A Memorial Day deal offers the 77-inch LG B5 OLED TV for $1,499.99, down from $2,999.99, with a $200 Best Buy gift card included. The B5 is positioned as a more budget-friendly alternative to LG’s C5 OLED, while still providing small bezels, an OLED panel with infinite contrast, and four HDMI 2.1 ports for 4K gaming up to 120Hz. The B5 is less bright than the C5 and performs worse at upscaling, while the C5 adds a faster 144Hz refresh rate. Smaller B5 sizes are also priced attractively, including a 48-inch model at $649.99 and a 65-inch model under $1,000.
"The 77-inch LG B5 is down to $1,499.99 (originally $2,999.99), and the purchase includes a $200 Best Buy gift card. I'm a 55-inch TV kind of person, but if you've got the budget - and the wall space - this is a great deal."
"The last-gen B5 is the more budget-friendly alternative to LG's C5 OLED TV, kind of like how the iPhone 17E is to the iPhone 17. It has many of the same features, including small bezels, a stunning panel with infinite contrast ratio, and four HDMI 2.1 ports to let your consoles run wild at 4K with up to 120Hz refresh rate on the TV."
"However, it's less bright than the C5, and isn't as good at upscaling content. The C5 also has a faster 144Hz refresh rate, though I don't think those features are worth its current $400 premium over the B5."
"If you're having second thoughts about the 77-inch size, smaller sizes of the B5 are surprisingly affordable, too. The 48-inch model is $649.99, while the 65-inch model might just be the biggest OLED you can currently get for under $1,000."
