LG's flagship is a boon for gamers, thanks to its unrivalled spec. Its picture is bright and colourful, but it lacks a bit of subtlety and whatever settings you tweak it does involve some trade-offs. The sound also lacks the spaciousness and precision of the Bravia 8 II's.
Pros
- Punchy picture quality
- Flawless gaming specifications
- Excellent app support
Cons
- Occasionally overbrightens
- Colours can look overcooked
- Cheap-feeling remote

The Bravia 8 II might lack the G6's gaming chops, but it delivers elsewhere: the picture is superb, with colours retaining their vibrancy even in low-light areas, while the sound ties into the picture to create a far superior audio experience. Cinephiles will love it.
Pros
- Exceptionally bright, vibrant and three-dimensional picture quality
- Perfect blacks and excellent shadow detail
- Stunning and cinematically authentic right out of the box
Cons
- Not as outright bright as the LG G5
- Still just two HDMI 2.1 sockets
- Positioning of the feet will be awkward for some
