Our Verdict

Sony A8F OLED

LG CX OLED

The LG CX OLED is better than the Sony A8F OLED. Since both have OLED panels and can produce perfect blacks, both have similar overall picture quality. However, the LG can get brighter, it supports VRR technology to reduce screen tearing, and the input lag is low. On the other hand, the Sony has better viewing angles.
