I just did extensive research on small TVs and monitors that weren't too expensive and you absolutely made the right choice with the omni. On paper, it's the best 43 inch TV you can get for under $450 ( it's even better than the Samsung au8000 which is a lot more expensive), but also what you don't read on paper is how much better direct lit TVs are better than edge lit. So even if another TV has a better native contrast ratio, if it's edge lit it will not look better in the real world than this Amazon Omni does. I compared my TCL 5 series to this, and despite that having better contrast on paper it looks much worse in reality because the TCL is edge lit and doesn't have local array dimming. If 2 TVs don't have LAD, direct lit wins over edge lit all day I just got the 43 myself for my kitchen and it only cost 3 hundo

They just discounted this down to $500 for a 65”. That’s a fair price for this, and probably better than most in the competitive set. $500 gets you a Hisense A6G (not U6G) of the same size or a Vizio V5. At least you get the benefit of a VA panel and better software than the Vizio. I’d take the Omni over those two. $600 for 65” might even be acceptable, but the $830 launch price was absurd.

@@YavNe This comment was from nearly a year ago, and prices have gone all over the place since then, but in sum, the Fire TV Omni was a VA panel (good), with no local dimming (bad), that could not get particularly bright (bad), ran a slow and complex Fire TV OS (Roku and Android are stabler and work better), and had a 60 Hz refresh rate with no HDMI 2.1 support. You could get a comparable feature set in the TCL 5 series, which has sold at around $500-$600 and adds the benefit of local dimming. A Sony X85K at least gets you a 120Hz screen, better brightness and native contrast, and sells around $800. The TVs that are much, much more expensive than this TV was at launch are largely much better TVs. Sony X90J, Hisense U8H aren't all that much more expensive than this and blows it out of the water. Hisense U7H is frequently cheaper than the Omni and would eat it for lunch.

Edit: I was wrong. The pioneer fire TV is better. It wasnt tested by rtings so i didnt know but upon seeing other reviews, and that its brightness is only a little below the fire omni, its definitely the better buy. What shocked me is how many more picture and sound settings the pioneer has. It also has dolby vision and dts x virtual surround. You'd think Amazon's own fire tv would be the best software wise but it isn't. Very weird but the settings are super limited Tbh it's pretty damn good now that the price is down. If you want one of the cheapest 4k TVs, this is actually rhe one to get. I compared all the others and used data from rtings and this not only is better on paper, but in person as well because it's direct lit instead of edge lit. It's in the same price range as the tcl 4 series, hisense a6g, etc. But it's easily the best picture quality under $300 (I got a 43 inch) It also looks a lot better than my tcl 5 series from 2018 One thing that helps it is that it is Direct Lit instead of edge lit When looking at cheaper TVs, you absolutely want direct lit instead of edge lit because even though my tcl has better native contrast ratio than this TV, when you actually look at them it's totally obvious that the Amazon omni has better contrast because it's direct lit. The edge lighting can really ruin contrast if the TV doesn't have local array dimming, and cheap TVs never do Also, the Amazon omni has the best brightness out of all the cheap TVs. Or at least out of ones with a VA panel, and trust me, you do not want a TV that is an IPS panel. IPS look absolutely terrible even with local array dimming. They only have around 1000:1 contrast ratio which is atrocious. Even 6000:1 can look bad if they aren't direct lit and don't have local array dimming so do not even think about getting an IPS TV Keep in mind at brick and mortar stores, the TVs demo footage is designed to hide the TVs weaknesses like contrast ratio, and the lights are bright in those places which also hides how bad they are at displaying dark colors

I have a 2016 65 inch Samsung 4K TV it still works great minus the OS being outdated (I got a Roku Ultra hooked up to it) and a little black dot on the upper left side of the screen it's an older model so maybe I shouldn't expect too much out of it but it still functions and Samsung's have always worked well for me so I'll keep it around until it has run its course. I looked up the price for repairing it and it's honestly not worth fixing for $600 especially with TV's constantly changing every year.

This is the review I have been waiting for. Thank you so much Caleb. You have helped me beyond measure with my tv selection. I had such high hope for this Omni TV, but it’s going to be a no for me for right now.

I was using Xfinity‘s Flex TV, I think they have the better remote than anyone else. I got rid of Xfinity Wi-Fi service and had to give that back. Then I got l the Amazon fire stick and it’s been pretty good. But that Flex TV remote…! A-1!

FWIW if you can snag one of these on Amazon's frequent sales, that goes a long way toward getting the price part of the equation where you want it in that Amazon price/value formula.

Favorite TV OS? Windows. I have different TV's with native OS's so to keep everything uniform I hook up one of my old Windows PCs up to the TV and skip the TV OS completely. Same would apply to using my Mac Mini M1, or Linux OS, if I wanted to. It's a LOT more capable.

Lol these went on clearance at Best Buy and sold out extremely fast. Got a 65in for 430$ . Def would say it’s worth it at that price.

So i went to rtings to see the best budget tv (43 inch) for dark rooms as i currently put my tcl 4 series 55 inch tv in my bedroom but it’s WAY to big and keeps me up at night when watching it due to so much light from the large size even after some setting adjustments. They recommended this tv in the 43 inch for best budget tvs for dark rooms. I went ahead and bought it so we will see. I just needed a smart tv with a smooth OS that has a decent dark room picture. :) EDIT: They also just updated the software therefore you can now edit white balance

Bought the 55” Omni Amazon tv and while it is decent, I feel it falls behind in brightness and some coloring. Just never gets as vivid as my old 2015 5 series Samsung tv. This Amazon tv no matter how much I adjust it just can’t get as bright as other TVs. Almost as if it’s like on a hidden eco mode that you can’t adjust. Very annoying when it’s very bright in a room or just average light coming into the room, it is too dark to enjoy the picture…. Like when you try watching Amazon prime videos on a phone… it just doesn’t go as bright but this happens on every app I’ve tried. It’s been 1 day with this tv and am Thinking of returning to go grab another Samsung. Also it seems to lose Picture quality as soon as you step left or right if dead center and especially when you view at an angle…

Im in the same boat. Did you end up taking it back? Im thinking about doing the same. For some reason, 2 BB employees don't recommend a Samsung at all, so idk why, Might go and get the Hisense or TCL.

@@jordanstinson2505 I never did return it. It’s been a couple weeks of use… still find the picture and Firetv system to be not in the same league as my Samsung and Roku device. Never heard anything bad about Samsung from any Bestbuy employee, I think the only reason I kept the Amazon is because it works with our Echo devices and you can control mostly everything on the TVs by voice with Alexa. Makes it nice when your busy with your hands or can’t find the remote, you can turn it in and off, change shows for kids, adjust volume and more. I still have my old Samsung in another room, and still run back n forth comparing them. Definitely huge difference in day time brightness. I would assume the 2020 series 7 Samsung is improved upon bs the 2015 model I have

@@MXvsATV144 well, yeah that’s a good idea then. I just got this tv for my bedroom. I got a LG CX 65” for my living room. I like the apps, and how it’s setup. I just wish it was a little brighter, only really negative complaint about it

I'm not big on TVs that have branded services built-in. Last year we bought a 55" TCL 6 series roku TV, and a 75" vizio with Google Built-in both have been disappointing. What we've done is locked them into hdmi 1, and plugged in a google chromecast which is a much better experience for us. I did not like getting the ads on the roku tv and the vizio did not have a HBO app available. Plus being able to have the same experience on all our TVs was worth the $200 (4x chromcasts). Lastly, I'm not a fan of Amazon.

Why would you have a pc capable of 120hz at 4k yet choose to buy this TV? I dont think there is a situation I would choose 120hz 1080p over 4k 60hz at standard viewing distance unless you were playing competitively in which case you would not be using a TV.

Caleb are these TVs a waste of time being that there are so many other well known TVs out there with much more to offer and are not that much more expensive. For example TCL and Hisense and some Vizio models seem like better choices to me. Just my opinion and thoughts

the 65 wound up being about 600 and I thought that was a pretty nice price drop myself for the holiday deals. it was 230 bucks off. I think I can handle a few under perfect specs for 230 bucks off. That's me though.
