A:Answer After some researching, it seems this older model (2018) has a hdmi input and output, is louder over 100dB, and digital display on the remote. The v series is newer (2020) and only HDMI output and a newer remote but the remote lacks a display.
Personally, doesn’t seem like a huge difference if anything this older model seems like a better version and costs 20$ less right now here at Best Buy than the cheapest v series I could find.
I’m thinking about just buying this one because it’s a little cheaper but they are really similar.
