If you frequently watch TV in a bright room, the Samsung QN90B delivers better performance with its superior bright room viewing capabilities. It also excels in gaming and sports content with higher quality motion processing and low input lag, which enhances fast-moving scenes and gameplay. The color and HDR performance of the Samsung QN90B is notably better, with a wider color gamut and higher HDR brightness score, making it a better choice for movies and series that rely on vivid color and contrast. However, if budget is a primary concern and your viewing environment is relatively controlled with less emphasis on sports or gaming, the Vizio D-Series '22 could be a satisfactory choice. Keep in mind that the Vizio offers only fair scores in various performance aspects and might not be as future-proof as the Samsung with its higher refresh rate and better features for the latest gaming consoles and 4K content.
