If you're focused on a better overall picture quality for a variety of content like movies, sports, and gaming, the Vizio MQ6 '23 is a stronger choice. It also tends to cost less, which could make it an attractive option if you're on a budget. On the other hand, the LG UR9000 offers good performance for gaming and has a wider viewing angle, which could be a better fit if you often watch TV with a group and need to accommodate multiple viewing positions. Furthermore, it has high quality control and assurance standards, ensuring reliability and consistency. Both TVs can struggle with dark room performance, so if your viewing environment is usually bright, this might not be as significant. Neither TV is particularly outstanding in sound quality, so you might consider external speakers or a sound system for improved audio. Give Feedback

The LG UR9000 (LCD) and Vizio MQ6 '23 (LCD) are both only fair for sports, though the LG UR9000 (LCD) is somewhat better.
The LG UR9000 is fair for watching sports as it has a decent response time and handles reflections well, though its IPS screen means narrower viewing angles, which could be limiting if you have a wide seating arrangement. The Vizio MQ6 '23, also fair for sports, benefits from a VA panel offering better viewing angles and similar reflection handling, but with a slower response time, which might be noticeable during fast-paced games.

The Vizio MQ6 '23 (LCD) is only fair for gaming, while the LG UR9000 (LCD) is poor.
The LG UR9000 has poor response time and best input lag, making it unsuitable for gaming as the screen can't keep up with fast movements, despite reacting quickly to controls. Conversely, the Vizio MQ6 '23, with fair response time and very good input lag, offers a balanced compromise for gaming, handling fast-paced action better while still being responsive to gaming inputs.

The Vizio MQ6 '23 (LCD) is good for cartoons & animation, while the LG UR9000 (LCD) is poor.
The LG UR9000 is considered poor for watching cartoons and animation because it has a low score for colors out of the box, indicating the initial color settings may not be optimal for vibrant animations, and a poor color gamut, meaning it cannot display a wide range of colors which is crucial for animated content. In contrast, the Vizio MQ6 '23 is rated as good in these areas, suggesting it can display a broader and more accurate range of colors straight out of the box, making it a better choice for animations.

The Vizio MQ6 '23 (LCD) is good for news, talk, & other TV, while the LG UR9000 (LCD) is poor.
The Vizio MQ6 '23 displays news and talk shows better due to superior upscaling and colors out of the box, ensuring content looks crisp and vibrant, which is crucial for these types of programs. In contrast, the LG UR9000 falls short in these areas, which might lead to less clear images and duller colors when watching standard definition content like news and talk shows.

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers Vizio MQ6 '23 (LCD) to be only fair for bright room, while the LG UR9000 (LCD) is poor.
The LG UR9000 struggles in bright rooms due to its fair SDR and HDR brightness and fair reflection handling, performance not suited for the impact of ambient light. On the other hand, the Vizio MQ6 '23 deals better with these conditions, offering good SDR brightness and very good reflection handling, although both TVs have lower contrast which affects the depth of blacks.
