As indicated in its header, the LG 48" Class C6 Series OLED evo AI 4K Smart webOS TV (2026) Model # OLED48C6PUA, is a 2026 model (also indicated by the 'C6') The B5 for the 48" in question is a 2025 model, and the B5 OLED series is the entry-level for LG OLED TVs, with the 2025 LG OLED C5 series sitting above it. The 2026 OLED48C6PUA is a newer iteration of the 2025 LG OLED48C5PUA, and is LG's newer iteration, offering an upgraded α11 processor, a slightly brighter picture, better gradient handling, and a 165Hz refresh rate. In contrast, the LG OLED48C5PUA is the older model, featuring a 144Hz refresh rate but available at significant, discounted closeout prices. The LG OLED C6 features minor enhancements in peak HDR brightness and richer colors compared to the C5, primarily thanks to its updated processor. The LG OLED48B5PUA (LG's entry-level 2025 OLED) and the LG OLED48C6PUA (a premium 2026 OLED Evo) represent two different tiers of performance. The C-series boasts a brighter panel, a faster processor, and superior gaming features compared to the B5. If you want an affordable entry into OLED technology that delivers true inky blacks and vibrant cinematic colors at a much lower price point, making it perfect for a dedicated dark home theater room, choose the OLED48B5PUA. Choose the OLED48C6PUA if you are a PC gamer demanding up to 165Hz, you need better text clarity for desktop monitor use, or your room has significant ambient light where the extra brightness is required...^Ivan
