If saving money is a top priority and you mostly watch content in a dark room, the Samsung N5300 may be suitable despite its overall poor picture quality. On the other hand, if you can spend more for improved picture quality and features like Dolby Vision and HDR10+ support, consider the Amazon Omni QLED. It offers better performance for cartoons and animations, better color quality, and is a more recent model with updated technology. However, neither of these TVs is particularly well-suited for bright room viewing or gaming. The Omni QLED will provide better sound quality, but if you're planning to use external speakers, this may not be a factor for you. Give Feedback

Tech Advisor

Jim Martin | April 2023
"This really is a TV designed for the streaming generation ... And it’s good to see support for both HDR10+ and Dolby Vision because it means more of the content you stream will be available in HDR. Overall, the Omni QLED is an impressive TV. It’s pretty bright, has good contrast and – thanks to those quantum dots – vibrant colours."
