LG B2 (OLED) vs TCL R655 (LCD)

The LG B2 OLED excels in watching movies and cinematic TV due to its perfect blacks, given its ability to switch off individual pixels leading to infinite contrast and exceptional black uniformity, which greatly enhances dark scene details, whereas the TCL R655 LCD, while offering good performance, has slightly lower contrast and cannot match the black uniformity of OLED technology which somewhat lessens the depth in dark scenes. Moreover, OLED TVs like the LG B2 generally have better viewing angles and can display more uniform colors and grays across the screen, making it a better choice for group viewing in dim environments, but the TCL R655 may have a slight edge in brighter rooms given its higher brightness capability.

The LG B2 OLED offers wider viewing angles and superior motion processing which is crucial for watching fast-paced sports, along with better response times ensuring smoother motion. The TCL R655 LCD, on the other hand, may not handle fast movements and varying viewing angles as well, potentially leading to less clarity during sports games.

The LG B2 OLED excels in upscaling lower-quality content and delivers good SDR brightness, which are important for watching standard TV programs like news and talk shows, and it offers very good colors out of the box with a high color gamut. On the other hand, the TCL R655 LCD has excellent SDR brightness to handle bright rooms well and still provides good upscaling and colors, but may not match the LG in terms of the consistency of colors and contrast seen from different angles due to its weaker local dimming and less impressive viewing angles.

The TCL R655, with its LCD panel, excels in a bright room because it provides excellent SDR brightness, helping to combat glare and maintain picture quality even when there's a lot of ambient light. On the other hand, the LG B2, an OLED TV, offers good SDR brightness and excellent reflection handling, but it may not be as bright as the TCL, yet it delivers perfect contrast and vibrant colors that can make images pop in well-lit environments.

The LG B2 OLED excels with the fastest response time, ensuring minimal motion blur in fast-paced games, and very low input lag for a responsive gaming experience. In contrast, the TCL R655 LCD, while also offering very good gaming performance with very low input lag, has a higher refresh rate which can be a benefit for gaming at higher frame rates.

The LG B2 is favored for watching cartoons and animation due to its OLED screen providing very good colors out of the box and a very good color gamut that ensures vibrant and accurate colors. Meanwhile, the TCL R655's LCD screen offers good performance in these areas as well but may fall slightly short compared to the OLED in terms of the richness and depth of colors despite having very good color volume which contributes to depicting a wide range of colors.
