The Amazon Omni Series is much less expensive than the Sony X95J. If price is a major concern and you're looking for a solid, budget-friendly option, the Omni Series may be the right choice. However, it delivers lower performance in both dark and bright rooms, and it is not as well-suited for sports or gaming. On the other hand, the Sony X95J costs more, but offers superior picture quality, which makes it better for movies and sports, and is a strong performer in both dark and bright environments. If high-quality viewing is your priority and you don't mind investing more, the X95J is the better option. Give Feedback

The Sony X95J (LCD) is very good for movies & TV, while the Amazon Omni Series (LCD) is poor.
The Sony X95J performs very well for movies and cinematic TV primarily because of its superior local dimming feature, enhancing contrast and black uniformity, which results in more detailed dark scenes, and it also has better color accuracy right out of the box, leading to more vivid and realistic colors. In contrast, the Amazon Omni Series lacks local dimming, leading to lower contrast and less uniform blacks that can make dark scenes appear washed out or uneven, and it also doesn't reproduce colors as accurately, potentially making movie content look less vibrant or natural..

The Sony X95J (LCD) is very good for sports, while the Amazon Omni Series (LCD) is poor.

In contrast, the Amazon Omni Series struggles with motion processing and response time, making fast movements appear less clear and more stuttered, which is not ideal for watching sports where fast action is common.

The Sony X95J (LCD) is excellent for news, talk, & other TV, while the Amazon Omni Series (LCD) is only fair.
The Amazon Omni Series' performance for watching news and TV programs is limited by its poor upscaling quality and lower SDR brightness, affecting the overall viewing experience in a bright room and when watching lower-resolution content. In contrast, the Sony X95J excels in these areas with better upscaling that enhances lower-quality signals and higher SDR brightness that helps maintain picture quality in well-lit environments, alongside superior color performance right out of the box.
