The Amazon Omni Series (LCD) is a more budget-friendly option and is generally suitable for casual viewing environments. It's a good choice if you're looking for an affordable TV with decent overall performance, but it may not perform as well in dark rooms due to its lower contrast and brightness capabilities. On the other hand, the Sony X95K (LCD) is a high-end TV that costs significantly more. It offers superior picture quality, making it excellent for movie enthusiasts and those who want a TV that performs well in both bright and dark rooms. It's also better equipped for gaming with a higher response rate and lower input lag, as well as improved sound quality. If you're serious about gaming or want the best viewing experience possible and are willing to pay for it, the Sony X95K would be the better choice. Give Feedback
