The Sony A90J, an OLED TV, is superior in terms of overall picture quality, including better performance in dark room conditions, which is ideal for movies and high-definition content. However, it is significantly more expensive. On the other hand, the Vizio Quantum Pro, an LCD TV, costs less but doesn't offer the same level of picture quality and may not perform as well in dark environments. If budget is a concern and you predominantly watch in brighter rooms, the Vizio could be a practical choice. For a premium viewing experience, especially for movies in darker settings, the Sony A90J is the better option. Give Feedback

The Sony A90J (OLED) is excellent for sports, while the Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) is only fair.
The Sony A90J excels in watching sports owing to its superior response time and motion processing capabilities, ensuring clear, blur-free scenes during fast-paced action. While both TVs handle reflections well, the Sony A90J also offers wider viewing angles, making it more suitable for large groups, whereas the Vizio Quantum Pro, despite good reflection handling, falls short in motion processing and has more limited viewing angles which could affect the viewing experience from different positions in the room.

"In every meaningful department – motion control, contrast, edge definition, detail levels, you name it the A90J puts in a memorably accomplished shift. In fact, the Sony proves outstanding at handling on-screen motion of any and every kind. By the standards of television audio systems, the A90J is a notably punchy and genuinely dynamic performer."

About Sony
Sony stands as a highly experienced and widely trusted TV manufacturer, earning a reputation that surpasses all others. A Japanese company, Sony has been making TVs for far longs than it has been making Playstation game consoles. Sony's high-end TVs are often regarded as the ultimate choice for videophiles, representing the epitome of quality, albeit at a premium price point. Renowned for their advanced and precise motion handling, as well as their cutting-edge local dimming algorithms, Sony consistently delivers unparalleled performance in these areas. They include Google TV software with all their TV sets, which grants access to the largest selection of apps available and they also include Bravia Core which is a movie streaming platform specifically for Sony TVs that offers higher picture quality by using more bandwidth.
About Vizio
Vizio is an American company. While they initially gained recognition for offering budget-friendly TVs, they have successfully expanded their product lineup to include high-end options as well. They manufacture TVs primarily in Mexico, China, and Vietnam. Similar to many Korean TV brands, Vizio developed its own smart TV software called SmartCast. In the past, SmartCast was not the best smart TV software, but it has evolved so that it is now good for using your TV and connecting to streaming services.
