If you're looking for a premium TV and are willing to pay more, the Samsung Frame Series is a stylish option with good overall picture quality and gaming performance. However, it may not be the best choice for darker rooms due to lower performance in this setting. In contrast, the Vizio Quantum Pro is less expensive and offers solid performance for bright rooms and gaming while also performing better in darker settings. Keep in mind though, the Vizio may not upscale content or process motion as well as the Samsung. Give Feedback

The Samsung Frame Series (LCD) is very good for cartoons & animation, while the Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) is good.
The Samsung Frame Series is excellent for cartoons and animation due to its very good colors out of the box and good color gamut, which ensure vibrant and consistent colors across different content. The Vizio Quantum Pro is good for the same content, likely because of its very good performance in color gamut, ensuring a wide range of colors, but with less accuracy straight out of the box compared to the Samsung.

The Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) and Samsung Frame Series (LCD) are both only fair for movies & TV.
The Samsung Frame Series and Vizio Quantum Pro are both designated as fair for watching movies and cinematic TV primarily due to their adequate contrast and black uniformity, which are very important for movie-watching experiences. However, these TVs have limitations in local dimming and viewing angles, which somewhat affects their performance in maintaining consistent color quality and visibility across different seating positions.

The Samsung Frame Series (LCD) and Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Samsung Frame Series and Vizio Quantum Pro both have fair performance for watching sports, mainly due to their good handling of reflections and very good response time, which is crucial for fast-moving content. However, they fall short with only fair motion processing and restricted viewing angles, which might not suit wide seating arrangements or if you're viewing from an angle.

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) to be very good for gaming, while the Samsung Frame Series (LCD) is good.
The Samsung Frame Series has a response time that ranks as 'very good' and input lag ranked as 'best', ideal for fast-paced gaming where quick reflexes are crucial. In contrast, the Vizio Quantum Pro, while still having 'very good' response time and input lag, does not match the 'best' input lag of the Samsung, making it slightly less responsive for competitive gaming.
