Performance/Display/Resolution/Refresh
With 4K Ultra HD, the LG E8 OLED has possibly the best picture on the market. (OLED TVs have darker picture quality and more contrast compared to QLEDs, like the Samsung Q80R.) Its ThinQ AI technology has 8.3 million individually lit pixels that can brighten, dim, or power off completely to achieve perfect black levels and absolutely amazing contrast and picture quality. Its LG ThinQ AI technology supports popular high dynamic range formats like Dolby Vision and HDR Content, and its A9 Intelligent Processor provides truly lifelike images in brilliant color.
Sound
The LG E8 OLED TV has built-in speakers with Dolby Atmos, the same digital audio used in movie theatres. The audio actually sounds like it’s moving around you, like a plane flying overhead. Amazon reviews say the sound is excellent for a flatscreen TV, but many preferred using an external soundbar. But if you don’t want to pay for an extra stereo system, the Dolby Atmos is more than sufficient. Compare its sound quality to another TV review: LG CX OLED.
Smart Features
The LG OLED E8 is one of the best smart TVs, with AI ThinQ technology. It has the Google Assistant built right into the TV, meaning you can control smart home devices with just your voice. It also works with Amazon Alexa devices, but the Alexa must be purchased separately. With its built-in wifi and ethernet port, you can search for your favorite TV shows on Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, Sling, or any streaming service your family uses. Amazon reviews LG as easy to set up and connect, even for people who aren’t so tech-savvy.
Ports/Expandability
This LG TV has incredible connectivity, with 4 HDMI ports and 3 USB ports. Do you love tech? You can hook up your Blu Ray, cable box, wireless keyboard, flash drive, and multiple gaming consoles all at the same time. It also has a built-in channel tuner and Bluetooth capability.
Value
The LG OLED65E8PUA is fairly expensive, but much less than the LG OLED E9. You definitely get what you pay for, with sound quality you’d hear in the movie theatres and no need to pay extra for an external stereo system. It also includes a Magic Remote with voice control, and Google Assistant built-in, so you already have savings towards your smart home.
OLED65E8PUA Wrap Up
