Our Verdict
Sony X900F
Vizio P Series 2018
The Sony X900F is slightly better than the Vizio P Series 2018. The X900F performs better in a bright room thanks to the better anti-reflective coating, and it's brighter and better able to overcome glare. The X900F also has wider viewing angles and has a more robust smart platform. The Vizio P Series 2018 has lower input lag for gaming or for use as a monitor. The P Series also has a more advanced black frame insertion feature and a better local dimming feature.
