It doesn’t sound bad, but the price of the C8 puts it in the firing line of both the Sony A1 and Samsung Q9FN, both of which are more sonically capable.

Another welcome sight is LG’s webOS interface, which has essentially defined how smart TVs ought to behave. Over the years the system has been tweaked, but the core offering remains the same. Like all OLED TVs, the LG C8 enjoys pixel-level luminance, where each pixel is able to turn on and off individually. That means remarkable lighting precision that beats even the most accomplished FALD (full-array local dimming) systems found on high-end LCD TVs, such as the Samsung Q9FN. Consequently, this means the TVs will only be able to support this content if it's sent OTT (over the top) through a built-in app like Netflix. The TVs can handle HFR gaming via PC, but only at 1080p Full HD resolution. There’s also voice control, which uses a microphone built into the Magic remote and has been upgraded this year with natural language processing, making interaction more ‘conversational’.If only all smart TVs were this intuitive; Android TV (favoured by Philips and Sony Bravia TVs) has a lot to learn. The closest alternative is the launcher bar system used by Samsung, but even that isn’t as silky-smooth nor snappy as webOS. Desktop monitors and smart TVs experience a latency/lag in visualizing the information. The time in milliseconds that the display needs to visualize the signal input.

In fact, the E8 suffers the same fate as last year’s OLED65G7V, which featured a built-in sound system that couldn’t justify its premium price over the alternative of buying a similar TV and a separate soundbar. If you’re not in a hurry, however, you might want to wait a little. Sony has just announced a potential game-changer OLED in the form of the Sony AF9: Sony’s new Master Series 4K TVs could be the ultimate way to watch Netflix. All of these TVs have different strengths and weaknesses but currently, for our money, LG’s own 2018 OLEDs are the best around, and well worth looking out for. While researching OLED, you’ll undoubtedly have come across Samsung’s QLED (Quantum dot Light Emitting Diode) TVs. And, you’re possibly wondering a) what’s the difference between the two technologies? and b) which is better?Information about the minimum amount of time, in which the pixels change from one color to another. Very often the manufacturer provides the response time for transition from grey-to-grey (G2G).
