If you're looking for overall picture quality and performance for movies, the Amazon Omni QLED is the better choice, but it comes at a higher price. It also has better dark room performance, making it more suitable for viewing content in low-light environments.
On the other hand, the Vizio V-Series is more budget-friendly. While its overall picture quality isn't as high, it has a slightly better gaming performance and a similar score for sports content. However, its performance in bright rooms and dark rooms is lower than the Amazon Omni QLED.
Both TVs have limitations with viewing angles and reflection handling, so if your room setup involves off-angle viewing or has a lot of natural light, this is a factor to consider for both options. Additionally, the Vizio V-Series has one less HDMI port compared to the Amazon Omni QLED.
Choose the Amazon Omni QLED if you prioritize picture quality and dark room performance and don't mind spending more. Opt for the Vizio V-Series if you want to save money and need a TV with a slight gaming advantage. Give Feedback

The Amazon Omni QLED (LCD) is good for movies & TV, while the Vizio V-Series (LCD) is only fair.
The Amazon Omni QLED provides a more immersive movie experience with its better local dimming and color volume, leading to richer, more accurate visuals, whereas the Vizio V-Series falls short in these areas with no local dimming and poorer color volume, though it does have superior black uniformity for darker scenes. However, for broad viewing angles and more consistent color rendering across the screen, neither are particularly strong, but this is less critical for typical cinematic viewing where viewers are often directly in front of the TV.

The Vizio V-Series (LCD) and Amazon Omni QLED (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Amazon Omni QLED has a fair response time which reduces the clarity of fast-moving sports content, and although reflections are handled fairly, this can affect visibility in well-lit rooms. Conversely, the Vizio V-Series also has fair motion processing capabilities and reflection handling, and similarly struggles with maintaining clear images in bright spaces; however, it has slightly better response time than the Omni QLED but still may not be fast enough for some sports viewers.

How the Amazon Omni QLED (LCD) and the Vizio V-Series (LCD) compare to other TVs
"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."
"Vizio's cheapest 4K HDR TV packs in a lot for a low price. The voice control via the remote works well, about as well as Roku's version on devices that have it. So if you know your way around a TV menu, or want to be able to dial in the picture even on an inexpensive TV, the Vizio is the better choice"
