If you value gaming performance and are willing to pay more, the Samsung Frame Series is a superior choice due its better gaming capabilities. However, for general movie and television watching, the Amazon Omni QLED offers commendable picture quality at a lower price. The Amazon TV also performs slightly better in bright rooms than the Samsung, but the difference is not substantial. On the other hand, if you are keen on using your TV as a monitor, the Samsung Frame Series excels in this area with higher performance. Both TVs may not deliver the optimal experience for sports content, with the Amazon TV being notably less suitable. Give Feedback

The Samsung Frame Series (LCD) and Amazon Omni QLED (LCD) are both only fair for sports, though the Samsung Frame Series (LCD) is somewhat better.
The Amazon Omni QLED has fair response times which can result in some motion blur during fast-paced sports, and its narrow viewing angles can cause the picture to look washed out from the side. The Samsung Frame Series handles fast-moving scenes better due to its superior response time, but struggles with reflection handling in bright rooms which can be distracting during sports viewing.

The Samsung Frame Series (LCD) is good for gaming, while the Amazon Omni QLED (LCD) is only fair.
The Samsung Frame Series has a better response time and input lag performance than the Amazon Omni QLED, making it more suitable for gaming as it can handle fast-moving images more smoothly and react faster to input commands from a gaming controller. While the Amazon Omni QLED has decent input lag for gaming, its slower response time may lead to some motion blur during fast-paced games.

The Amazon Omni QLED TV is recognized for good upscaling and delivering vibrant colors right out of the box, making it suitable for watching news and TV programs where image clarity is paramount.

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers Samsung Frame Series (LCD) to be good for bright room, while the Amazon Omni QLED (LCD) is only fair.
The Samsung Frame Series performs better in a bright room partly because it handles reflections more effectively and has a higher SDR brightness than the Amazon Omni QLED. The better brightness and reflections handling contribute to a clearer picture in well-lit environments, making the Samsung Frame Series more suitable for such conditions.
