Our Verdict

LG GX OLED

Sony X90J

The LG GX OLED and the Sony X900H are very different TVs. The LG is better overall because it's an OLED TV with a near-infinite contrast ratio. This means it can display perfect blacks, and unlike the Sony, it doesn't have blooming around objects in dark scenes because it doesn't have a backlight. The LG has wider viewing angles and better reflection handling. It also has a much better color gamut for HDR, but it doesn't get as bright. The LG's response time is significantly faster; however, it stutters more in low frame rate content like movies.
