The 55-inch LG B3 OLED TV has now recorded a big price drop and is now back on sale at the historic-low price. The TV is a cost-effective 4K OLED machine with a 120 Hz refresh rate that boasts a high rating from both media and users alike.

Released in 2023, the LG B3 is a mid-range 4K OLED TV that can be had in a screen size ranging from 55 to 77 inches. Aside from the characteristic OLED qualities like rich contrast and excellent color reproduction, the LG B3 boasts features like 4K@120 Hz output, Variable Refresh Rate (VRR), and more.

So, if you need an excellent OLED TV that doesn’t cost a fortune, the LG B3 is a pretty decent option, especially now that it can be yours for less than $800. Walmart has the 55-inch LG B3 for only $798, a discount of $401 on the list price. This price is the lowest the TV has ever seen at Walmart and matches an offer from early December 2024.

LG B3 OLED TV excels in displaying HDR content and gaming

The LG B3 OLED TV stands out when it comes to movie watching in HDR and gaming, as RTINGS rated the TV at 8.8 and 9.3 in these two fields, respectively, with an overall “Mixed usage” rating of 8.7. This makes the LG B3 OLED an excellent choice whether you are just a media watcher or a gamer.

For starters, the LG B3 enjoys an infinite contrast ratio, resulting in deep blacks and colors that pop. The TV also covers 99% of the DCI-P3 uv gamut and has great color volume.

Moreover, LG has done a good job with reflection management, as, despite boasting only decent SDR/HDR brightness, the LG B3 OLED TV reportedly handles reflection very well. In other words, the TV is perfectly usable in a moderately lit room.

For gamers, the LG B3 features up to 4K@120 Hz output and VRR to reduce screen tearing. RTINGS also measured a near-instantaneous response time and low input lag. Console gamers will also be pretty happy, as the LG B3 supports all resolutions on the Xbox Series consoles and PS5 (Available on Amazon).

Finally, thanks to the α7 AI Processor Gen6, the LG B3 also does a good job of upscaling low-resolution and smoothing out low-quality content.

Put simply, if you don’t need a super bright TV or a large panel, the 55-inch LG B3 OLED TV on sale is a budget champ that deserves your attention.
