Our Verdict
Sony X950H
Vizio P Series Quantum X 2020
The Vizio P Series Quantum X 2020 and the Sony X950H are very similar overall. The Vizio has a higher contrast ratio, a better HDR color gamut, and much lower input lag. The Sony has wider viewing angles due to its 'X-Wide Angle' layer, faster response time, and its internal speakers sound much better.
