Our Verdict
LG G1 OLED
Sony A80K/A80CK OLED
The LG G1 OLED and the Sony A80K/A80CK OLED are similar OLED TVs, but the LG is just a bit better overall. The main difference is that the LG gets brighter in HDR, so highlights pop more. If you're a gamer, the LG is also the better choice as it has lower input lag and supports FreeSync VRR, which the Sony TV doesn't.
