If you enjoy watching movies in a dark room, the LG A2 (OLED) will offer you exceptional picture quality, great viewing angles, as well as perfect blacks due to its OLED display. However, its price is on the higher end. On the other hand, the Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) is more budget-friendly, provides a brighter screen suitable for well-lit rooms, and it performs better for gaming due to a higher response time and lower input lag. Yet, it might not deliver as uniform blacks as the LG A2, and the picture quality might not be as impressive in a dark environment. Give Feedback

The LG A2 (OLED) is excellent for movies & TV, while the Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) is only fair.
The LG A2 (OLED) excels in contrast, black uniformity, and viewing angles, which are crucial for an immersive movie-watching experience, while the Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) falls short in these areas although it offers decent colors out of the box. The LG's OLED technology provides perfect black levels and wide viewing angles but may not be as bright as the Vizio in well-lit rooms, where the Vizio's stronger brightness could be advantageous despite its weaker local dimming capabilities that affect dark scene performance.

The LG A2 (OLED) is very good for sports, while the Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) is only fair.
The LG A2 excels in watching sports due to its OLED screen, which provides excellent response times and motion processing for fast action, along with wide viewing angles and effective handling of reflections. The Vizio Quantum Pro, while having a good response time and reflection handling, falls short due to its LCD screen's limitations in motion processing and narrower viewing angles, coupled with lower gray uniformity, which is important for sports viewing.

The Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) is very good for gaming, while the LG A2 (OLED) is good.
The LG A2 boasts an excellent response time and very good input lag, which are critical for smooth gameplay dynamics, but as an OLED with a 60Hz refresh rate, it might not be as fast in rendering as some LCD options. However, the Vizio Quantum Pro, despite having a higher refresh rate of 120Hz conducive to gaming and faster screen updates, falls a bit short with very good response time and good input lag, which may not be as instant as the OLED’s performance.

The LG A2 (OLED) is very good for cartoons & animation, while the Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) is good.
The LG A2 (OLED) is very good for watching cartoons and animation because it produces accurate colors without the need for calibration and has a wide color gamut, enhancing the vibrancy of the cartoon's palettes. The Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD), while good for the same content, may not exhibit colors as precise as the LG A2 out of the box and, despite a very good color gamut, might not sustain the color volume across various brightness levels as effectively.

The LG A2 (OLED) is very good for news, talk, & other TV, while the Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) is only fair.
The LG A2 OLED TV typically offers better upscaling and has deeper contrast which ensures that lower resolution content such as news and talk shows appear clearer and the black areas on the screen are more true to life. In contrast, the Vizio Quantum Pro LCD TV might seem brighter which could be beneficial in well-lit rooms, but it generally doesn't upscale lower resolution content or represent dark areas as well as the LG A2 does.

The Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) and LG A2 (OLED) are both good for bright room, though the Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) is somewhat better.
The LG A2 OLED is suitable for bright rooms due to its excellent handling of reflections, although its SDR and HDR brightness are just good, which might not overcome very bright conditions. Conversely, the Vizio Quantum Pro LCD delivers very good SDR brightness, further enhancing visibility in bright spaces, along with very good reflection handling, making it a strong choice for well-lit rooms.

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."
