78 out of 100 low confidence 8 reviews
The LG B5 OLED TV delivers stunning picture quality and solid built-in speakers, making it a great choice for casual gamers and home theater enthusiasts. However, the included remote control is widely criticized for its overly sensitive pointer that cannot be disabled, and customer service has been unhelpful. A few users also reported minor connectivity issues with PCs and a misleading Game Pass code offer.
