The LG B2 OLED often comes at a slightly higher cost than the Vizio P-Series LCD. If picture quality, especially for gaming and movies, is crucial and you watch TV mostly in a dark room, the LG B2 OLED would be a superior choice due to its outstanding dark room performance and viewing angles. However, if you often watch TV in a bright room, the Vizio P-Series LCD will offer better performance in those conditions. Keep in mind that OLED screens have richer contrasts and deeper blacks, which can enhance viewing experiences for movies and series significantly. Give Feedback

The LG B2 (OLED) is excellent for movies & TV, while the Vizio P-Series (LCD) is good.
The LG B2 OLED provides exceptional contrast, perfect black uniformity, and excellent viewing angles which makes it superb for watching movies and cinematic content, particularly in darker environments. The Vizio P-Series LCD, while offering good contrast and local dimming capabilities, doesn't match the OLED's performance due to lower black uniformity and narrower viewing angles, impacting its ability to provide the same level of immersive viewing experience.

The Vizio P-Series (LCD) is very good for bright room, while the LG B2 (OLED) is good.
The Vizio P-Series (LCD) excels in bright room conditions because of its higher SDR and HDR brightness levels compared to the LG B2 (OLED), and although both TVs have good reflection handling, the Vizio edges out with "very good" reflections performance over the "excellent" of the LG. However, the OLED technology of the LG grants superior contrast and color volume, which can enhance picture quality but may not be as noticeable in well-lit environments.

Tom's guide
Nick Pino | March 2023
"The LG B2 OLED pairs lush, saturated colors and perfect contrast with a 120Hz screen, HDMI 2.1 ports and a great smart TV platform. The LG B2 OLED is an ideal alternative to the LG C2 OLED for folks who want a taste of OLED life without the sticker price that usually comes with it. The LG B2 OLED does a lot right in terms of performance, color saturation is wonderful and contrast is second-to-none. Not only did color saturation and off-axis viewing impress me, harder to quantify specs like motion processing and upscaling really blew me away as well."

"We were even more pleased to see that performance had improved across the board, with the display offering better color, brightness, and shorter lag times than the already excellent Roku model. Color accuracy was great right out of the box. The TCL 5-Series Google TV becomes a great option for demanding gamers."
