The Amazon Omni Series is a more budget-friendly choice and is suitable if the price is a major deciding factor. It offers good performance for its lower price but has limitations in motion handling and picture quality compared to premium models. On the other hand, the LG C3 offers superior picture quality due to its OLED panel, which provides excellent contrast and black levels. It is also preferable for gaming thanks to its higher refresh rate and if you often watch movies in dark rooms. However, the LG C3 comes at a significantly higher cost. If you're looking for the best visual experience and gaming performance and are willing to invest more, go for the LG C3. If you are more price-conscious and need a good all-around TV without the premium features, the Amazon Omni Series may be adequate. Give Feedback

The LG C3 (OLED) is very good for sports, while the Amazon Omni Series (LCD) is poor.
The LG C3 OLED TV provides an excellent sports-watching experience, thanks to its outstanding response time and motion processing, which minimize motion blur, and its superior viewing angles and reflection handling that maintain image quality from different perspectives and in various lighting conditions. In contrast, the Amazon Omni Series LCD TV has a weaker performance in these areas, which can result in more noticeable blur during fast-paced games, reduced visibility when viewed at angles, and more pronounced reflections, detracting from the viewing experience, especially in brightly-lit rooms.
