The LG B3 4K OLED TV is a fantastic option for those looking to experience OLED technology without breaking the bank. While not classified as 'affordable,' this entry-level OLED TV from LG offers the superb picture quality and deep blacks that OLED is known for, at a more accessible price point. For the price, it's a solid choice.

Like all other LG TVs on this list, the B3 has built-in Alexa support, making it convenient for smart home integration. With a smaller number of size options available, including a 77" model for a reasonable $1,199, the LG B3 4K OLED TV is definitely worth considering for those seeking an affordable entry into the world of OLED televisions.

No Dolby Vision or Atmos support

Mini LED is the next big thing in the TV world, and LG has gotten involved with its range of QNED sets. The LG 80 4K TV gets our vote for the top QNED screen, with size options up to 86", a high refresh rate, and dynamic tone mapping technology. The TV lacks support for Dolby Atmos, offering its own virtual 5.1.2-channel surround sound instead.

The TV's Quantum Dot NanoCell Color tech and local dimming are designed to make the image richer, more colorful, and clearer without needing an OLED screen. The panel is extremely thin, so it is perfect for mounting to the wall, and pricing is also extremely reasonable considering the technology inside.

Best 8K LG TV

Specifications

Display: QNED
Resolution: 8K
Sizes: 65", 75", 86"
Depth (without stand): 1.2in
Release year: 2021

Reasons to buy

+
8K Mini LED panel

Incredibly thin

Reasons to avoid

-
Only available in larger sizes
-
Older (2021) model
-
No Dolby Atmos support

The only 2021 LG model to remain on our list, the LG 99 QNED Mini-LED TV is still our pick for the best 8K TV from the brand. Adding next-gen resolution to Mini LED tech is a recipe for stunning visuals, using smaller LEDs for a brighter and more precise image than standard LED TVs.

All 8K TVs suffer from a lack of widely available content. However, the QNED99 uses AI to upscale everything to as close to 8K, meaning you still get the benefit as you wait for the resolution to become more mainstream. The TV is designed for big-scale movie watching, with Dolby Atmos and virtual 5.1-channel surround sound, along with Cinema HDR and a dedicated Filmmaker mode.

Not designed to be mounted

Newly available in more territories, the LG Posé 4K OLED TV is the brand's big play in the design-led tech market, joining the likes of Samsung's The Serif. And we must say that it's truly stunning. With an easel-style stand, a fabric frame that wraps around the front of the TV, and even some handy storage in the back, it's a bold and minimalist statement TV.

It's also great on the inside, with an OLED screen, Dolby Vision and Atmos, and support for all the major smart home assistants. The TV can be mounted, but it's designed to be viewed from all angles, so placing it in the center rather than against a wall would be optimal.
