If you are looking for a more budget-friendly option, the Hisense A65K is much less expensive and generally suitable for casual viewing in brighter rooms due to its LCD screen. However, the LG B3 offers superior picture quality with its OLED screen, which provides better contrast and viewing angles, making it ideal for movies and gaming, especially in darker rooms. The LG B3 also has a higher refresh rate which is preferable for fast-moving content like sports. Keep in mind that OLED screens can be more prone to glare in bright rooms and have a risk of permanent burn-in with static content, unlike LCDs. Give Feedback

"The A65K proved to be a rather capable TV that works great within its extreme limitations that its price dictates. It has great contrast, very low input lag and good color coverage. Add Google TV and a low price in the mix and you have an excellent low budget offering."
