The 2017 LG 8 and 9 Series TVs in the Super lineup share the same chassis, resulting in comparable specifications, but they also have notable differences. These differences primarily relate to speaker configurations, design elements, and regional variations of the models, while the overall specifications remain largely unchanged. Despite the differences in design, they may not be as noticeable because the screen occupies 98% of the visible area. Modern LG TVs are characterized by a minimalistic and elegant design. Differences in stand shape, frame color and TV thickness create subtle but noticeable visual differences between models.
