3 of the best value OLED TVs in Australia right now

OLED is right up there as the TV technology of choice because of the unrivalled contrast and enhanced picture quality made possible by its true black levels. Unlike LED TVs that rely on a backlight, OLED panels use organic light-emitting diodes that light up (or turn off) individually. This gives you perfect blacks and super-sharp contrast, especially in dark scenes.

With the exception of one or two rare 8K models (extreme luxury items at around $60,000), all new OLED models are 4K TVs. This means they have the 8 million pixels that are now standard, whether you buy this technology, a QLED TV or a Full UHD television. A lot of people believe that the human eye can barely discern the difference between 8 million pixels and anything higher anyway, so it could be the case that although it's possible to cram more and more pixels into a screen, there's just no point. As for screen size, 65 inch TV’s are fast becoming the standard size in Australian homes, hitting the sweet spot between immersive viewing and fitting well in the space.

If you want a new TV with premium display technology, but don’t want to spend top dollar, these are three of the 65" best buy OLED models currently available through Appliances Online (and with Free Delivery and connection).

LG TVs have long been a go-to for great quality and value OLED screens, and the B5 continues that tradition with meaningful upgrades.

The B5 delivers perfect black levels, excellent contrast and rich, lifelike colours thanks to its self-lit OLED pixels and Pixel Dimming technology. Powered by LG’s a8 AI Processor 4K Gen 2, it intelligently enhances both picture and sound, keeping motion smooth and detail sharp across all content. It’s also a strong choice for gamers, with HDMI 2.1, a 120Hz refresh rate, low input lag, VRR, plus support for NVIDIA G-Sync and AMD FreeSync Premium.

Running on LG’s webOS platform, the B5 offers easy access to streaming apps alongside features like Google Cast and Apple AirPlay 2. The Magic Remote makes navigation intuitive, while Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos support deliver a more immersive, cinema-style viewing experience.

Samsung’s 2025 S85F OLED sits comfortably below the flagship models, offering a premium OLED experience without pushing into top-tier pricing. It uses a self-illuminating OLED panel for flawless blacks, strong contrast and rich, accurate colours, with an anti-reflection screen helping performance in brighter rooms.

Powered by Samsung’s NQ4 AI Gen2 Processor, the S85F intelligently upscales content to near-4K quality and fine-tunes brightness and HDR scene by scene. It supports HDR10+ for enhanced highlights and shadow detail, and Adaptive Sound Pro helps dialogue stay clear while adjusting audio to suit what you’re watching. While its 100Hz refresh rate is more modest than Samsung’s gaming-focused OLEDs, it still handles everyday viewing and console gaming smoothly via HDMI 2.1.

Like other Samsung TVs, the S85F runs the Tizen operating system, giving easy access to popular streaming apps alongside SmartThings integration for connected home control. Voice control via Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant is built in, rounding out a polished, easy-to-live-with OLED option.

Sony’s Bravia 8 XR80 was released in 2024, replacing the older A80 series. Like all Sony TVs with OLED technology, it leans heavily into picture processing smarts, powered by the XR processor, which uses AI to analyse and optimise what’s on screen.

This means better upscaling of lower-quality content (like free-to-air TV or older Blu-rays) and a natural, lifelike picture. If you’re coming from an older LED TV, the detail and depth of Sony’s OLED panel will be a significant upgrade.

This is also a Google TV, so it’s super easy to search and install your favourite apps and use Google Assistant to control your TV with your voice. The sound is also a standout thanks to Sony’s Acoustic Surface Audio+ which turns the screen itself into a speaker. It might seem like an odd concept, but it works surprisingly well, making dialogue feel like it's coming straight from the characters’ mouths.
