The Samsung Q60C offers a slightly better bright room viewing experience, which could be more desirable if you plan to watch TV in well-lit areas. Its overall picture quality, sports content viewing, and better handling of reflections could be advantageous if those are your viewing priorities. However, the Vizio V-Series '22 generally costs less, making it a good choice for budget-conscious buyers. The Samsung's higher price provides some advancements, but its picture quality in dark rooms is not amongst those benefits, as it is inferior to the Vizio in that context. Both TVs have similar input lag for gaming and support the same formats for HDR content, but the Vizio has wider viewing angles, which may be better for rooms where viewers will be seated at various angles from the screen.

The Samsung Q60C (LCD) and Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Samsung Q60C and the Vizio V-Series '22 both have strengths and weaknesses when it comes to watching sports. While the Samsung handles reflections better and processes motion more effectively, which is crucial for fast-paced sports action, both TVs struggle with response time and viewing angles, meaning fast-moving images may blur and the picture quality can deteriorate if viewed from the side; additionally, the Vizio has less uniform gray areas, which could be noticeable during certain sports scenes.
