Fortunately, LG has a B-series OLED lineup that&#8217;s hundreds of dollars cheaper than its other OLED TVs while still offering incredible image quality. As part of its early Black Friday Doorbuster Sale, Best Buy currently has the 48&#8243; LG B5 4K OLED Smart TV for a low price of $549.99 with free delivery. At this size, the TV could also be used as a big-screen gaming monitor for your PC.<\/p>\n<h2 data-cy=\"title2\" class=\"title2 jsx-1903782357 jsx-3735650234\">48&#8243; LG B5 4K OLED Smart TV for $549.99<\/h2>\n<div catalogid=\"395ac392-d076-44a8-84e5-568d7eb19a08\" id=\"230534\">\n<div class=\"jsx-3980863763 catalog-wrapper\">\n<div data-cy=\"productcard-view-trigger\">\n<div id=\"230534\" data-cy=\"solo-product-card\" class=\"solo-product SoloProduct_solo-product__r2_WP\">\n<div class=\"card jsx-722342313 jsx-3341285356 product-card SoloProduct_product-card__JSk8u\">\n<div class=\"product-thumbnail jsx-2285132617 SoloProduct_image__vqG4e\"><img alt=\"48&quot; LG B5 4K OLED Smart TV\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"progressive-image jsx-1809694635 jsx-2338608387 expand\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2025\/11\/14\/lgb5-1763162854199.jpg?width=220&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2025\/11\/14\/lgb5-1763162854199.jpg?width=220&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 1x, https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2025\/11\/14\/lgb5-1763162854199.jpg?width=220&amp;dpr=2&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 2x\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"\/><\/div>\n<p><h3 class=\"title5 jsx-62124236 jsx-2827240024 name balanced\">48&#8243; LG B5 4K OLED Smart TV<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p><button class=\"button-text jsx-729543028 button jsx-3381835873 jsx-3347269829 icon-button catalog-upvote SoloProduct_catalog-upvote__FWsVx centered disabled\" disabled=\"\" type=\"button\" title=\"Vote\" aria-label=\"Vote\" data-cy=\"catalog-upvote\"><span class=\"ign-icon icon-rating-like jsx-2750866048 jsx-2919720488\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-cy=\"icon-rating-like\" style=\"mask:url(https:\/\/kraken.ignimgs.com\/_next\/static\/media\/RatingLike.ea885513.svg) no-repeat center center \/ contain;background:currentColor\"\/><\/p>\n<p>0<\/p>\n<p><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The LG B5 is equipped with a W-OLED panel that boasts superior image quality compared to non-OLED TVs thanks to its near-infinite contrast ratio, near-instantaneous response times, and ability to produce true blacks. Compared to the LG C-series TVs, it lacks the Evo technology which means it isn&#8217;t as bright as an more expensive C5 model, however, it&#8217;s very similar to the previous generation&#8217;s C4 because the generational performance improvement closes the gap.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The LG B5 is an excellent gaming TV for the PlayStation 5 console because it has a native 120Hz panel and four HDMI 2.1 ports. That means it will properly display games running in 4K resolution at up to 120fps. The LG B5 also supports variable refresh rate (VRR) and auto low latency mode (ALLM).<\/p>\n<h3 data-cy=\"title3\" class=\"title3 jsx-12333944 jsx-3517023867\">The 48&#8243; size makes it a solid option as a PC gaming monitor.<\/h3>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">At this deal price, the LG TV is by far the least expensive OLED &#8220;monitor&#8221; with a screen size of 40&#8243; or bigger. Some of you might think that 48&#8243; is much too large on a desktop, but there are quite a few dedicated gaming monitors that are 48&#8243; or bigger. I myself use a 48&#8243; LG TV as my primary monitor and I love it. The LG B5 connects to your PC via HDMI 2.1 and newer GPUs like Nvidia&#8217;s RTX 50 and 40 series and AMD&#8217;s RX 7000 and 9000 series support 4K at 120Hz over HDMI 2.1. The LG B5 also supports 4:4:4 chroma sampling for clear, sharp text.<\/p>\n<p><output class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-313219616\"><span><img alt=\"\" aria-hidden=\"true\" decoding=\"async\" role=\"presentation\" class=\"progressive-image article-image article-image-full-size jsx-1809694635 jsx-2338608387\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"\/><\/span><\/figure>\n<p><\/output><\/p>\n<h3 data-cy=\"title3\" class=\"title3 jsx-12333944 jsx-3517023867\">Is the LG B5 OLED TV a good TV for the Nintendo Switch 2?<\/h3>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Despite being a current generation console, the Nintendo Switch 2 has lax TV requirements compared to the PS5 or Xbox Series X. When the Switch  is connected to its dock and a television, it is only capable of outputting a 4K resolution signal at up to 60 frames per second. It can go up to 120fps if the resolution drops to 1080p, but the data rate required for both these options is pretty much the same, and you would much rather play any game in 4K. That said, the Switch 2 will still benefit greatly from the OLED panel&#8217;s stellar image quality (much like how the Switch OLED was a substantial visual upgrade from the original Switch).<\/p>\n<section class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\">\n<aside class=\"card jsx-1339469126 jsx-1178573261 box jsx-2627838217\" data-cy=\"aside\">\n<h3 data-cy=\"title3\" class=\"title3 jsx-12333944 jsx-3517023867\">How to Follow IGN Deals Recommendations<\/h3>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The IGN Deals team has over 30 years of combined experience finding the best discounts and preorders available online.
