Our Verdict
LG B3 OLED
Sony A75L OLED
The LG B3 OLED and the Sony A75L OLED offer very similar picture quality overall, but the Sony is slightly better. The Sony gets slightly brighter, and it's powered by Sony's industry-leading picture processing, which delivers better upscaling and low-quality content smoothing.
