Our Verdict
Vizio P Series Quantum X 2020
Samsung QN90A QLED
The Samsung QN90A QLED is a bit better overall than the Vizio P Series Quantum X 2020. The Samsung gets a bit brighter, and it has wider viewing angles thanks to its 'Ultra Viewing Angle' technology. The Samsung also has better gaming performance because there aren't any bugs with its VRR, it supports the PS5 with 4k @ 120Hz games, and it has a quicker response time. However, the Vizio has a better contrast ratio because it doesn't have any viewing angle technology.
