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.

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.

A new LG G series TV is always big news, so we were excited to get our hands on the LG G6 for review. It’s a big moment for the range. Despite earning five stars in our review, last year’s G5 was a little disappointing, finishing in last place in our big four OLED shootout. Hence we were keen to see how this year’s model fared.

Of course we never test in isolation – throughout all our reviews, we keep the product’s main rivals front of mind. So while the G6 impressed in our review, we’re now pitting it against possibly its fiercest rival – the Award-winning Sony Bravia 8 II.

Game on.
