If you frequently watch movies in a dark room and value picture quality, the LG A2 OLED is a better choice with superior contrast and black uniformity. However, it's more expensive. On the other hand, if your budget is limited and you primarily watch cartoons, animation, or use the TV as a monitor, the Vizio V-Series '22 might suffice. It's less costly, but its picture quality in dark environments isn't as impressive as the OLED. Neither are ideal for very bright rooms, but the OLED performs slightly better. For gaming, both have moderate performance, with the LG slightly leading. Give Feedback

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."
