Our Verdict
LG A2 OLED
Sharp AQUOS FS1 OLED
The LG A2 OLED and the Sharp AQUOS FS1 OLED are similar TVs, each having strengths over the other. The LG has a wider viewing angle, so the image remains more consistent with the center when viewed from the sides. The LG also has better low-quality content smoothing, so DVDs and low-bitrate streams look better on it than the Sharp TV. However, the Sharp is a much better option for gamers due to its HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, 4k @ 120Hz, and VRR support, so it can take advantage of modern gaming consoles and PCs much more than the LG can.
