The LG B1 (OLED) offers superior picture quality, enhanced contrast, and is better suited for dark room viewing, as well as having a higher refresh rate which is great for sports and gaming. However, it's significantly more expensive than the LG UP8000 (LCD). The LG UP8000, although less impressive in terms of overall picture quality, costs less and could be a sensible choice if you're on a budget or plan to watch TV in brighter rooms, as LCD screens typically perform better in those conditions.

Stratos Kampourogiannis | July 2021
"What we liked on this one was the very sharp 4K images it could display, its good up-scaling capabilities, nice viewing angles and extremely low input lag. Lastly the new webOS 6.0 is great even if it needs some time to get your bearings while the redesigned Magic Remote feels fresh even if functionality remains the same."
