A:AnswerHi Dale. Every TV will play video content at its native resolution. The LG B8PUA 4K HDR Smart OLED TV w/ AI ThinQ® - 55" Class (54.6" Diag), Model # OLED55B8PUA is a 10-bit panel and has a resolution of 3840 x 2160 (i.e. a native resolution of 2160p). When presented with video content that has a lower resolution, the built-in 4K Upscaler in the TV will upconvert those lower resolutions to its native resolution or as close as it can get it provided the signal has enough data. The resultant picture should be sharper, and more detailed than it would on a similarly-performing 1080p TV if you are sitting close enough, but there are many other factors that could affect that. 1080p and 720p content are never going to look as good as the best 4K content. It's just not possible...^IFV
A:AnswerOLED's have a native 120 Hertz panel and have a refresh rate of as low as 0.001 ms which for reference is around 1,000 times faster than a standard LED/LCD panel. ^CP
A:AnswerThe gap between the bottom of the panel on the LG B8PUA 4K HDR Smart OLED TV w/ AI ThinQ® - 55" Class (54.6" Diag), Model # OLED55B8PUA and the surface it is installed on will be 1.8" so if your Soundbar is 3.5" tall, it will cover 1.7" of the TV's screen...^IFV
A:AnswerIt really doesn't matter. not with an OLED Tv......if you dig deep it's probably 120hz, I know your saying well that's not 240.. I'm telling you, i watch a lot of sports, and there is absolutely NO lag or motion blurring.....NONE...
A:AnswerThere are various connections on the back of the LG B8. Numerous HDMI "ports"/inputs, but also older composite in with digital opitical ( audio ) outs. Depends on how new your VCR is? Mine is a few yrs old, and has HDMI outs, which is what I'd recommend if your machine has them.
A:AnswerWhen comparing the LG OLED B8 vs. the OLED C8, the differences, at least on the surface, are difficult to find. Of course, they’re both state-of-the-art OLED TVs, breathing new life into movies, sports, games and with OLED’s tell-tale perfect black and intense color that’s only offered by the Best. Picture. Ever*. But when you dig a little deeper, you'll discover some fine variations that may mean a lot to you. Here are a few:
The Processors. While the B8 has an a7 processor, the C8 boasts an a9 processor, which means that the B8 has slightly more limited processing power than the C8. One of the things that this means for you is that the B8 uses dual-step noise reduction, rather than the quad-step process found in the C8. However, while the B8's processor may not be as streamlined as the C8's, and there may be slight differences in overall sharpness, both televisions produce stunningly crisp, lifelike images.
High Frame Rate (HFR) & High Dynamic Range (HDR). Although the B8 and C8 both support HDR imaging, and high frame rates, because of the somewhat more limited processing power of the B8, that television cannot support both simultaneously. However, with the increased processing power of the C8, HDR and HFR can be used at the same time.
The Design. The most noticeable difference in the LG C8 vs. B8 comparison comes in the design – specifically in the design of the televisions' stands. The C8's is slightly wider and heavier than the B8's, and it features a cutout beneath the downward-directed speakers that help reflect sound toward the front of the television. Meanwhile, the B8's stand might look similar, but without the cutout, it isn't able to direct sound quite as well as the C8.
Although the LG B8 and C8 may appear virtually identical, there are some slight nuances that may make the C8 a better choice for the die-hard movie buffs among us. That said, both televisions deliver superior images in 4K Ultra HD, incredible Dolby Atmos* sound, and offer AI (Artificial Intelligence) ThinQ® with the Google Assistant built in, so you can control compatible smart home devices using just your voice. Create a center for your smart home and beyond. Plus, it works with Amazon Alexa devices.
A:AnswerThis OLED TV has a α7 Intelligent processor which enhances 4K HDR content for a truly cinematic experience with superior depth, sharpness, and remarkably accurate color. Each of the 8.3 million individually lit pixels of the LG OLED TV with AI ThinQ can brighten, dim or power off completely, achieving perfect black and displaying a level of picture detail. Picture quality becomes even more dynamic with Ultra Luminance Pro, which uses smart power distribution technology to boost peak brightness even higher. Its 54.6" screen (measured diagonally from corner to corner) is large enough to provide an immersive experience for everyone in the room. OLED TVs perform well in all lighting conditions. They offer an extremely high degree of color accuracy, wide viewing angles and a picture that is virtually blur-free.

A:AnswerNot sure what you mean by playstation app, but the oled has multiple hdmi ports which you need for the fire stick so you can definitely use it. Since it’s a smart tv it also has some of its own apps as well
