If you are looking for a more budget-friendly option with a better overall picture quality, especially in brightly lit rooms, the TCL Q6 could be a good choice. It also has a slightly better performance for gaming and sports content. However, if the ability to use voice commands and greater accessibility features are important to you, and you're willing to pay more, then the Amazon Omni Series might be the way to go. That said, it has a lower bright room performance compared to the TCL Q6. Keep in mind that both TVs offer good dark room viewing, but neither is exceptional in this area. Give Feedback

The TCL Q6 (LCD) is only fair for cartoons & animation, while the Amazon Omni Series (LCD) is poor.
The Amazon Omni Series is considered poor for watching cartoons and animation due to its poor out-of-the-box color accuracy and limited color gamut, which affect the vibrancy and overall appearance of colorful content. Conversely, the TCL Q6 performs fairly better as it offers a good color gamut, permitting richer and more varied colors, although they both share relative weaknesses in color volume and gray uniformity which are pertinent to maintaining consistent color richness and evenness across the screen.

The TCL Q6 (LCD) is good for bright room, while the Amazon Omni Series (LCD) is only fair.
The TCL Q6 performs better in bright rooms largely due to its higher rating in both SDR and HDR brightness, making it capable of overcoming ambient light more effectively than the Amazon Omni Series. However, both TVs have less effective reflection handling, leaving room for improvements in that aspect for both models.

The TCL Q6 (LCD) and Amazon Omni Series (LCD) are both poor for movies & TV.
The Amazon Omni Series may detract from watching movies due to its lack of local dimming and poor black uniformity, which can make dark scenes less authentic, while the TCL Q6 is hindered by its lower contrast ratio and lacking color performance right out of the box, resulting in less vibrant and deep images.

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers TCL Q6 (LCD) to be only fair for sports, while the Amazon Omni Series (LCD) is poor.
The Amazon Omni Series has a poor performance for sports watching due to its slow response time, noticeable motion blur, and low reflection handling, making it less suitable for fast-paced content and bright rooms. Compared to the Omni, the TCL Q6 offers fair motion processing and better reflection handling, which means it's more capable of handling fast movements in sports but can still struggle in very bright environments.

The TCL Q6 (LCD) and Amazon Omni Series (LCD) are both poor for gaming.
The Amazon Omni Series (LCD) has a fair response time and very good input lag, which makes it usable for gaming, but might lead to some motion blur in fast-paced games. The TCL Q6 (LCD), while having fair response time similar to the Omni Series, offers the best input lag, significantly reducing delay between input and action on the screen, making it more suitable for competitive gaming.

The TCL Q6 (LCD) and Amazon Omni Series (LCD) are both only fair for news, talk, & other TV.
The Amazon Omni Series and TCL Q6 both have fair performance for watching news and TV programs, largely because they are equally capable in upscaling lower resolution content and produce adequate SDR brightness to handle most common room settings. While the Amazon Omni Series might not offer the best colors right out of the box, requiring some adjustments for optimal viewing, the TCL Q6 displays more accurate colors from the start, yet its contrast is lower, which can affect the depth of images, especially in darker scenes.

"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."

About Amazon
Amazon, the largest online retailer in North America, has forged partnerships with TCL and Hisense to produce white-label TVs incorporating their Fire OS software. These Amazon-branded TVs typically compete in the low-end and mid-range segments, offering compelling price points. Leveraging their strong reputation, Amazon has swiftly built brand trust in the TV market despite being relatively new to it. To enhance their popularity, these TVs integrate features from the Amazon ecosystem, including Alexa, providing users with a seamless and interconnected TV experience.
About TCL
TCL, the highly recognizable TV brand from China, has firmly established itself as the second-largest manufacturer in terms of sales volume. Renowned for striking an impressive balance between affordability, picture quality, and design, TCL TVs deliver a compelling overall package. While they have traditionally excelled in the low-end and midrange TV segments, TCL has recently made remarkable strides in the realm of high-end televisions, introducing impressive models that rival top competitors. Most TCL TVs use Roku software which is very user friendly and easy to use, but they have a few other models that use Google TV which has the largest app selection, but is not as user friendly as Roku.
