The Sony A95K (OLED) is best in class for news, talk, & other TV, while the Amazon Omni Series (LCD) is only fair.
The Sony A95K OLED offers superior upscaling and brightness for standard dynamic range content, which enhances the clarity and visibility of news and TV programs, especially in environments with controlled lighting. Conversely, the Amazon Omni Series, an LCD, presents a fair performance in these aspects but may fall short in delivering the crisp detail and contrast seen in the Sony A95K, making it a more budget-friendly option with competent, yet less exceptional, viewing quality for standard programming.

The Sony A95K (OLED) is very good for bright room, while the Amazon Omni Series (LCD) is only fair.
The Sony A95K (OLED) is better for bright rooms primarily due to its very good HDR brightness, which enhances the viewing experience by making highlights stand out more in well-lit environments, and it offers best-in-class reflection handling, minimizing the impact of ambient light. The Amazon Omni Series (LCD), while offering a good SDR brightness that ensures a decent picture in ambient light, falls short with poor reflection handling, making it more susceptible to glare and therefore less ideal for brightly lit rooms.

"If you want a competent budget screen with some handy features, the Amazon Omni TV delivers an experience that punches well above its price tag. You’ll also get the benefit of Fire TV’s new UI right out of the box. It’s clean and simple to understand, plus it puts content first. In the picture-quality department, the Amazon Omni is a surprising star among some of its dimmer, less colorful rivals."

"A95K will be one of the highest-performing TVs of the year, if not the hottest TV of 2022. The color on the Sony A95K is the most accurate I have ever seen. Certain hues of red just haven’t been produced on a TV … until now. Perhaps with deeper scrutiny, I may one day find some nit to pick, but in the time I was able to spend with the A95K, I was simply thrilled."
