The LG A2 (OLED) is excellent for movies & TV, while the Samsung Q60C (LCD) is poor.
The LG A2 OLED TV offers exceptional contrast, perfect black uniformity, and wide viewing angles which makes it excellent for watching movies and cinematic TV; on the other hand, the Samsung Q60C, being an LCD TV, has lower contrast, lacks local dimming, and does not perform as well in maintaining black uniformity and viewing angles, making it less ideal for these viewing experiences. Additionally, the richness of colors straight out of the box and color volume are more impressive on the LG A2 due to its OLED technology, further enhancing movie and cinematic content when compared to the Samsung Q60C.

The LG A2 (OLED) is very good for sports, while the Samsung Q60C (LCD) is only fair.
The LG A2 stands out in sports viewing due to its excellent response time, superior motion processing, and better handling of reflections, alongside wide viewing angles that maintain picture quality for off-center viewing. On the other hand, the Samsung Q60C, while offering good motion processing, falls short with only fair reflection handling, limited viewing angles that can reduce the quality when seen from the side, and a lower response time, which can lead to blur in fast-moving scenes.

The LG A2 (OLED) is good for gaming, while the Samsung Q60C (LCD) is poor.
The LG A2 is better suited for gaming than the Samsung Q60C because it has an "excellent" response time which minimizes motion blur, and a "very good" input lag score, ensuring minimal delay between player actions and on-screen response. The Samsung Q60C, despite having the "best" score for input lag, is held back by a "poor" response time, making it less ideal for fast-paced gaming where quick image transitions are critical.

The LG A2 (OLED) is very good for cartoons & animation, while the Samsung Q60C (LCD) is good.
The LG A2 OLED's superior performance in colors out of the box and color gamut makes it very good for watching cartoons and animation, providing vibrant and accurate shades without the need for much adjustment. Contrast and SDR brightness are important too, where the LG A2 excels in contrast due to its OLED panel, though both TVs have good SDR brightness, yet the Samsung Q60C, being an LCD, will not match the same level of contrast nor offer as rich a color gamut as the LG.

The LG A2 (OLED) is very good for news, talk, & other TV, while the Samsung Q60C (LCD) is only fair.
The LG A2 OLED excels in displaying news and TV shows due to its superior contrast, excellent black uniformity, and strong upscaling capabilities, which ensure that lower-resolution content is presented clearly. In contrast, the Samsung Q60C LCD falls short in these aspects, especially local dimming and contrast, which might result in less defined images and flatter colors when watching standard dynamic range content in various lighting conditions.

Additionally, the OLED’s superior contrast and broader color volume contribute to a better viewing experience in various lighting conditions compared to the LCD's more limited performance in these areas.

Al Griffin | August 2022
"Movie fans will find a lot here to love, and the A2 series’ low prices compared with other OLED TVs will keep their wallets happy. Images had the deep blacks and detailed shadows typical of the best 4K TVs, while colors looked both fully saturated and clean. Also, the A2’s out-of-box picture performance in Filmmaker mode was mostly accurate, requiring only slight adjustments to optimize brightness, color, and contrast."
