On the GX7 the EVF image quality was nice but I felt like looking in a tunnel. Not true with the GX8’s EVF. The EVF on the Lumix GX8 is the largest for any Lumix ever. Not that I’ve done a side to side but it feels similar to the larger EVF’s you might have used on a Sony or Olympus. My guess is that it’s a similar or updated panel and thats a very good thing. Even with my glasses on I can see the whole thing which to me looks like a very large TV.
