LG B6 review: an excellent OLED TV for gaming and movies that hits new brightness highs for LG's budget OLED — but having compared it to the LG B5 and LG C6, it's not the slam-dunk upgrade home theater fans have been hoping for

The LG B6 is an overall great OLED TV with a few frustrations. It delivers newfound brightness to the B-series lineup as well as overall superb picture quality, with fantastic gaming performance and features. Next to last year's LG B5 however, it doesn't deliver the full upgrade I hoped for. The step-up LG C6 leads by example as to what an upgrade should look like, and given that it's much more expensive, I'd encourage people to push to that. Still, the B6 is a very good entry-level OLED TV that ticks a lot of the right boxes.

Pros

  • +Brighter, bolder picture than the B5
  • +Excellent gaming features
  • +webOS 26 is a great smart TV platform

Cons

  • -Green tint more of an issue than on B5
  • -Average sound quality
  • -LG C6 is a bigger upgrade and isn't much more expensive
