RTINGS are updating their TV review system to 2.0 which grades TVs on a much harsher scale than before!
In this case, B4 scored definitely better than s85D in the original 1.1 review system. Now, B4 has been updated to the stricter 2.0 system but S85D has not been update yet so the comparison of current 1.1 and 2.0 scores is apples to oranges!
He is talking about when Apple switched to Intel 20 years ago, not LG TVs. 😂
The flood of lower cost OLEDs is the result of LG's panel improvements. They have a new panel tech going into the G5 and C5. Rather than sell the older panels directly, they are selling them to other manufacturers. This way, they can maintain their OLEDs as upscale and keep their QLEDs down market, letting lower tier competition sell the lesser quality, older tech. It does risk cutting sales of the B4 and B5.

Why I got it: I eventually plan to get an 83"+ C or G set so I wanted the cheapest good OLED set possible to tide me over. I currently have a 2017 B7 model which works fine but as a gamer I wanted support for 2k resolution and VRR which my current set doesn't have. I also wanted a set with two legs instead of a central stand as I want to be able to put the soundbar and other stuff under the set since right now it's a bit messy in front.
What you should be aware of: This model doesn't support 144hz refresh rate, while the C4 and G4 do. G4 may even go to 165hz, I'm not sure. This model is also notorious for not being as bright as other competing products, including C4 and G4. So you have to be mindful of where you are setting it up. I am pretty sensitive to bright lights so hopefully this won't bother me. I never felt like the B7 wasn't bright enough and I think the brightness is similar.
Mine arrives tomorrow and hopefully it's an easy swap to make. These also support airplay so that should reduce my clutter. If I absolutely hate it, I'll come back and make an edit.
EDIT: In case anyone stumbles on this in future searches, I'm very satisfied with the set. Feels like a considerable upgrade to my older 2017 B7 of the same size. The two leg stands allows me to have the TV closer to the front of the stand which gives the illusion of a larger set in the same space. It's also a little brighter than my old set. The issues people say about the remote are less the remote and more that the new UI kinda sucks with everything smaller and stuck to the side. The remote being a wireless wand sucks but only because it is bad at that. Speakers sound better than my previous TV tho I'm using the soundbar anyway. I decided to keep the apple TV attached because it seemed not connecting the set to wifi is probably better for privacy.
