LG’s budget-friendly B6E OLED TV is up to 50 percent off this weekend

LG's B6E OLED TV, already one of the more budget-friendly options on the market, is now at an even better price point this weekend due to Best Buy's latest doorbuster event. For a limited time, the 55-inch model is available for 50 percent off, bringing the price down to $699.99, a significant $700 reduction from its original price.

This is the lowest price ever for this particular model at Best Buy. If you're in the market for a larger screen, there are also discounts on the 65-inch and 77-inch models. The 65-inch version is $900 less, priced at $999.99, while the 77-inch TV is $1,200 cheaper, priced at $1,499.99.

Although it may not be as bright as LG's more expensive C6 series, the B6E still boasts excellent contrast and deep blacks, which are often highlighted as advantages of OLED technology. The TV delivers on these fronts, providing a viewing experience that rivals more premium models. However, the B6E comes with a simpler remote that doesn't offer the advanced motion controls and voice features found on LG's higher-end models.

Despite this, it supports Dolby Vision and HDR10, both of which enhance color and detail in both bright and dark scenes. Additionally, the inclusion of Dolby Atmos means that the audio is immersive and adds another layer to the overall viewing experience.

For those who enjoy gaming, the B6E is also a strong contender. It comes equipped with a 120Hz refresh rate, which is still quite fast even if it doesn't match the 165Hz refresh rate of LG's C6 model. Moreover, the TV supports variable refresh rate technology, including Nvidia G-Sync and AMD FreeSync Premium, both of which help to minimize screen tearing.

The B6E is powered by an Alpha 8 Gen 3 AI processor and includes four HDMI 2.1 ports, ensuring that multiple gaming consoles can be connected without any hassle. While it may not have all the cutting-edge features found in LG's more expensive OLED TVs, the B6E is an exceptional choice for those who want the benefits of OLED technology without breaking the bank.
