Our Verdict
Samsung S90C OLED
Sharp AQUOS FS1 OLED
The Samsung S90C OLED is better than the Sharp AQUOS FS1 OLED. The Samsung has a much wider viewing angle, so the image stays more consistent from the sides than on the Sharp. Highlights in HDR content pop much more on the Samsung due to its better HDR brightness, and SDR content looks better in a room with the lights on due to its better SDR brightness. The Samsung is also more versatile thanks to its HDMI 2.1 bandwidth on all four ports, and it has better overall image processing.
