I was checking out these two sets at Best Buy and they were sold out of the B8 and couldn't get it anymore. They had the C9 on display, so I was looking at it as it is supposedly very similar to the B8, and was looking at the Samsung Q80r QLED. In the showroom with normal in store lighting, I thought the Q80 looked really good with great blacks. The OLED looked amazing. Anti reflective screen on the Q80 was *extremely* good and I have a lot of glare in my living room from windows and such so, I pulled the trigger in the Q80. It will be delivered Monday. I've been researching and analyzing my decision hoping that I don't regret not getting the OLED picture quality.

Sooooo, I just placed an order for the LG 65B8 with expected delivery of 8/20. So I'll have the Q80 for a week by then.

Anyone have first hand experience with both want to offer opinions? Reading up on all the reviews and forums posts, I go from thinking the differences are night and day to subtle and occasional.

If you like the q80 check out the Hisense h9f. I’m looking into it for maybe the game room.
