The Amazon Omni Series has a higher overall picture quality and performs slightly better in bright rooms, making it a suitable choice if you often watch TV in well-lit spaces. However, the TCL S446 has better performance for gaming and watching sports, due to its faster response time and color. If you play a lot of video games or frequently watch sports, the S446 could be the better option. The TCL S446 is also priced lower, so it may be the smarter choice if you're looking to save money. Neither TV has great performance in dark rooms, so if you frequently watch movies in dark environments, you might want to consider other options. Give Feedback

The TCL S446 (LCD) is only fair for sports, while the Amazon Omni Series (LCD) is poor.
The Amazon Omni Series has a slower response time and poorer handling of reflections, making it less suitable for watching sports where fast motion clarity and the ability to watch in bright rooms are crucial. On the other hand, the TCL S446 offers better motion processing and wider viewing angles, which provides a fairer experience for sports enthusiasts, though it also struggles with gray uniformity just like the Amazon Omni Series.

The TCL S446 (LCD) is only fair for cartoons & animation, while the Amazon Omni Series (LCD) is poor.
The Amazon Omni Series displays colors poorly right out of the box and has a poor color gamut, making it less suitable for vivid animations. In contrast, the TCL S446 has excellent color accuracy when you first use it, despite a similarly poor color gamut, which may make animations more visually appealing initially.

The Amazon Omni Series (LCD) and TCL S446 (LCD) are both poor for movies & TV.
The Amazon Omni Series has mediocre performance in movies and cinematic TV primarily due to no local dimming and just adequate black uniformity which are crucial for good contrast, resulting in less immersive dark scenes. On the other hand, the TCL S446 struggles with the same content because it offers poorer contrast and black uniformity, impacting the deepness of blacks and the overall picture quality in dark viewing environments.

The TCL S446 (LCD) and Amazon Omni Series (LCD) are both poor for gaming.
The Amazon Omni Series and TCL S446 both have fair response times, which is not ideal for gaming where fast-paced visuals can cause blur. While both TVs offer very good input lag, which is important for gaming responsiveness, their refresh rates are limited to 60Hz, which does not suit high-frame-rate gaming.

"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.
