It's officially NEW TV season, which means a slew of brand-new models are rolling out to stores. As new TVs take their place on the shelves, sets from last year are getting some pretty steep discounts. This can make shopping for a TV rather complicated.The newest affordable OLED to hit the scene is the LG B6, the brand's entry-level OLED for 2026. The full scope of the B6 series has yet to be revealed, since some of the sizes aren't yet available. It's also not on sale yet. The LG B5, meanwhile, is LG's entry-level OLED TV from 2025. It's currently available in more sizes than the B6, and you'll also pay far less for this year-old set.If you're trying to figure out which LG OLED is worth your hard-earned cash, it's worth taking a look at their performance, specs and features. Here's what you need to know.

LG's latest entry-level OLED is only a marginally better performer than its predecessor, and for most people, saving money on the B5 is the better move (at least until the B6 drops in price). At the time of publishing, the B6 is available in fewer size options than the B5, too.
