Best Buy is currently offering a 2022 48" LG A2 4K OLED Smart TV for only $599.99. This is the lowest price we've ever seen for an OLED TV from a reputable brand. The LG A2 makes for an outstanding HDR TV and can double up as a great PC monitor as well.

The A-series is LG's least expensive OLED lineup. That said, it is still a true OLED TV. Compared to traditional LED LCD TVs, OLED TVs offer better image quality, deeper blacks, better contrast ratio, wider color gamut, and super fast response times.The A2 has the same processor as the B2 and supports HDR10 and Dolby Vision, which makes it an excellent TV for HDR content.

The biggest reason why the A2 is less expensive than LG's other models is that the A2 has a native 60Hz panel. That means it is unable to run 4K @ 120Hz and has no HDMI 2.1 inputs. This might deter gamers who want to be able to run games at 4K@120Hz on their PS5 or Xbox Series X console, although you should note that not all games can run at this setting anyways. If you want 4K@120Hz support, then you should consider the LG C3 instead, although it is considerably pricier. Unfortunately, there is no 48" B2 or B3 model.

Because of the relatively smaller size, the A2 makes for an excellent PC monitor alternative. It has low input lag and supports chroma 4:4:4 sampling for clear, sharp text. The benefits of an OLED panel translate to a monitor as much as a TV. Traditional IPS, VA, and TN panels have terrible black levels, so transitioning to an OLED display will be a significantly improved experience in terms of color accuracy and contrast ratio. As mentioned above, gamers might be disappointed that the A2 won't run 4K@120Hz, especially those who have a really high-end video card like the RTX 4080 or RTX 4090, but it will run 4K@60Hz over HDMI.
