I did some research into this before purchasing. The C8 has the latest and greatest processor (Alpha 9) compared to the somewhat older B8 processor (Alpha 7). The C8 is able to do more of its rendering and fine tuning of the image that will likely matter to a high end user but won't make a huge difference to a typical user. The stand on the C8 is also a wider design. The panel, speakers and OS remain the same between the two. I went with the C8 because I've become a real nerd about image quality.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.All of the series in our OLED lineup with the exception of the LG B8PUA 4K HDR Smart OLED TV w/ AI ThinQ® series OLEDs which uses the α7 (Alpha7) Intelligent Processor, use the α9 (Alpha9) Intelligent Processor. The α9 (Alpha9) Intelligent Processor makes it easy to process videos at High Frame Rates of up to 120 frames per second. With this, it is able to maintain smooth picture quality even during fast motion sequences. This provides a better viewing experience as there is no motion blur as you’d expect. Both processors guarantee improved picture quality and clarity with exquisite detail, vibrant colors and more depth presented in every image. The clarity with exquisite detail, vibrant colours and more depth presented in every image but the α9 (Alpha9) Intelligent Processor does everything better. They both promise clearer images thanks to the Quad-step noise processing technology. The four-step noise reduction process ensures you get better images that you would not get with previous LG TVs that had a dual step noise reduction process. With this new processing technology, you are guaranteed of reduced grain and banding noise than before and the Alpha 9 intelligent processor makes use of temporal noise reduction and not just spatial noise reduction as in other models. With temporal noise reduction, multiple frames are compared to find grain and eliminate any flaws that may be there for better image quality. It also enhances the sharpness of the image to improve overall detail and texture. It does this by accentuating the edges of the object in the picture to end up with detail pictures that are more realistic and create greater depth. It will give you better object depth enhancing and the object depth enhancer does a good job in separating the main object on the screen from the images in the background and then analyze the textures and edges. The depth enhancer also boosts contrast ratio between the object and the background for deeper dimensions. It also utilizes a more sophisticated color table compared to previous models. What this means is that it will have more color data points to enable it display true to life colors with no distortion. The other differences between the series is in their designs...^IFV
