I don’t know what’s treading the waters at the moment, but this is now the second big discount we’ve seen on one of LG’s newest OLED TVs, and it’s a really big one. LG OLED’s B-series has always been the mid-range option behind the C-series and ahead of the more affordable A-series, however this 2024 version has some notable benefits that make it a worthwhile upgrade from the older set. Currently, this 48-inch LG B4 can be yours from Best Buy for $800, which is nearly half the price of its usual list price of $1500 – that’s a ridiculous deal on a telly that’s only been out for a few months.
Compared to the last two years of LG’s OLEDs, this 2024 lineup has received some useful upgrades that make the B-series a viable option for those who want a powerful OLED without spending on the C or G series. The main thing here for the gamers in the crowd is that the B4 now comes with a total of four HDMI 2.1 ports for 4K/120Hz output, where previously it only came with two, so you can connect multiple consoles and a PC to get smooth, detailed output. VRR comes in the form of both AMD FreeSync and Nvidia G-Sync, while those HDMI ports also support ALLM to ensure the most responsive experience while gaming.
Furthermore, it can also get a little brighter than its predecessors, so that HDR content can be handled better. HDR comes in the form of Dolby Vision, HLG and HDR10, which offer solid support. You also get access to the shiny new webOS24 OS for easy navigation of smart features, which is handy, while LG has also bundled a brand new Alpha 8 processor, which brings standard support for Dolby Atmos as well as support for AI Sound Pro to help create immersive sound which continues to be the case in this telly.
However, the truth is that this is still an LG OLED, which delivers some great performance, with deep blacks, vibrant colours and great contrast. Although you don’t get the benefit of the Evo panel with the B4, all of these optimisations come together to deliver a fantastic viewing experience and help make the B4 a great telly for those who want a new OLED to watch and engage with all kinds of content.
If you’re looking to pick up a new LG OLED TV for nearly half the price, this Best Buy deal is for you, with the 48-inch B4 getting $700 off.
