200 owner reviews, more than most models here
The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other LED, QLED and OLED TVs plus TV mounts, streaming media players, antennas, cables and satellite gear we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
The LG OLED55B5PUA pairs a 55-inch OLED panel with 4K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. As an OLED, each pixel produces its own light, giving the deep blacks and high contrast that this technology is known for. It runs webOS and lists Bluetooth, Ethernet, HDMI, USB, and Wi-Fi connectivity.
Priced near $900, this B-series model is positioned as LG's value entry into OLED. The 55-inch size fits most living rooms comfortably, and the 120Hz panel gives gamers room for higher frame rates where their source allows. At about 32 pounds, it is a manageable weight for wall mounting or a standard stand.
With 200 reviews and a 4.5-star average, buyer feedback here is more established than on LG's newest flagship sets. HDR format and exact HDMI port count are not confirmed in the available data, so check those details if they matter to your setup.

Frequently asked questions
How does the B-series OLED differ from LG's higher tiers?
LG's B-series is positioned as the value entry into OLED, while G-series and C-series models typically add brightness, processing, and gaming features at higher prices. You still get the core OLED benefit of per-pixel lighting and deep blacks. The available data does not list peak brightness, so check the spec sheet if you need a panel for a very bright room.
Is 55 inches a good size for a living room?
A 55-inch screen fits comfortably in most living rooms at typical seating distances of about seven to nine feet. If your room is larger or your seating is farther back, you may prefer a 65-inch or larger panel. At around 32 pounds, this set is light enough for standard wall mounts and stands.
