Our Verdict
LG B8 OLED
Hisense H8F
These two TVs have different panel types, each with advantages and disadvantages. The LG B8 OLED has a significantly better overall performance than the Hisense H8F for almost all uses. The H8F can get brighter and doesn't have the burn-in risk OLEDs have. The LG B8 has perfect blacks for an outstanding dark room performance, and the image remains accurate when viewed from the side. It has a faster response time, motion looks crisp with almost no blur, and it also has better gray uniformity.
