LG OLED B9 55-65″ OLED (2019)

This older OLED generation offers pixel-perfect contrast and black levels, but needs a modern receiver for gaming. All four HDMI ports support full 2.1 specs (48Gbps), enabling 4K@120Hz, VRR, and ALLM on any input. eARC runs on HDMI 2 for lossless audio return to a soundbar. For the 2.1 ports, use Ultra High Speed HDMI cables — standard cables top out at 18Gbps. Here's every port and the cables you'll need.

Notes & Compatibility

HDMI: 4x HDMI 2.1 (48Gbps, 4K@120Hz, VRR, ALLM). eARC: HDMI 2. USB: 3x USB 2.0. DTS supported. Placement matters on a wall mount: LG lists the four HDMI inputs as one rear and three side, and the three USB ports as two rear and one side, so right-angle HDMI plugs are often the tidier buy. Multichannel PCM over eARC did not work on LG’s 2019 sets at launch and was only fixed by firmware in June 2020 — check the update state on a second-hand set before blaming the cable. G-Sync compatibility also arrived by firmware from November 2019 rather than in the box.
