▼ Summary
– Best Buy’s Deal of the Day offers the LG 65-inch B6 OLED TV at $1,399.99, down from $1,999.99, for August 20th only, which is $300 less than Amazon’s price.
– The B6 is LG’s lowest-tier OLED, but it still delivers strong performance versus most non-OLED TVs, though it is less bright than the higher-end C6 model.
– It features contrast-rich 4K picture quality, a capable processor for smooth app performance, and a 120Hz refresh rate with support for Nvidia G-Sync and AMD FreeSync Premium.
– All four HDMI ports are version 2.1, supporting full refresh rate, variable refresh rate, and auto low latency mode, with one port offering eARC for soundbar connections.
– The B-series OLEDs are relatively inexpensive compared to LG’s flagship models, making them a good option for midrange tech buyers without sacrificing key features.
Best Buy’s Deal of the Day is packed with LG discounts, spanning everything from laptops to home theater components. But the standout offer is a fresh low price on the company’s 65-inch B6 OLED television. The set is now available for $1,399.99, down from its original $1,999.99, and that price holds through the end of Thursday, August 20th. Interestingly, it also undercuts Amazon’s current listing by a full $300.
My usual shopping habits lean toward midrange gear, so I have a soft spot for the B-series OLEDs. They sit well below the flagship tier in cost, yet they don’t strip away the essentials that make LG’s panels so appealing. The B6 sits at the entry point of LG’s OLED lineup, but even the most basic OLED from the company outperforms the majority of non-OLED displays on the market. It’s not as luminous as the C6 model, but for typical viewing environments, the brightness is more than adequate.
Beyond that, the B6 delivers contrast-rich 4K picture quality, a processor capable of keeping smart apps responsive, and a 120Hz refresh rate with support for both Nvidia G-Sync and AMD FreeSync Premium. All four HDMI inputs are version 2.1, which means they can handle the full refresh rate, variable refresh rate, and auto low latency mode without compromise. One of those ports also includes eARC, making it straightforward to hook up a soundbar for better audio.
