There is a lot of excitement surrounding the launch of the new LG B4, largely because it is the first B-series model that will benefit from having four HDMI 2.1 sockets, making it a viable, cut-price alternative to the C4 for hardcore gamers. But what if you were never in need of those extra HDMI 2.1 sockets? Wouldn’t the existing B3 already be that cut-price LG OLED TV you’ve been waiting for?
In a word, yes. While the B3 does without some of the niceties of its C-series sibling, including those extra full-spec HDMIs and its brighter panel, it’s more than enough OLED TV for most people, and while the price difference isn’t huge, for many people, there’s just no need to pay more.
