How we score

Scorata scores summarize analyzed review evidence on a 1–5 scale; they are not laboratory measurements or a simple average of customer star ratings. Feature scores summarize the reviews covering that feature. The overall score averages feature scores within each review, then combines review averages. When both expert and customer evidence are available, those two groups receive equal weight. Products can have different review coverage, so small score gaps do not establish a winner.

Recommendations prioritize important features for the category, with a score of at least 3.5, a gap of at least 0.25 points and at least two supporting reviews per product. Features with widely varying scores or broad connectivity contexts are excluded from recommendations. These safeguards do not establish statistical significance.

Performance

Picture quality
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
4.3

Sharp, natural-looking images delight many everyday viewers, yet experts repeatedly find washed-out dark scenes and limited HDR impact.

LG QNED92A
4.3

The QNED92A usually delivers sharp, colorful, high-contrast pictures, especially with quality 4K material. The toughest dark and bright scenes expose haloing, clipped highlights, or uneven detail.

SDR brightness
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
1.0

Ordinary broadcast viewing is hindered by relatively low screen brightness, especially when sunlight competes with the picture.

LG QNED92A
4.5

Excellent SDR light output lets bright broadcasts stand out even with ambient room lighting, although darker scenes can be dimmed unnecessarily.

Daytime viewing performance
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
1.0

Substantial daylight makes the relatively dim image and visible reflections difficult to ignore, reducing daytime usability.

LG QNED92A
4.0

Strong SDR brightness makes daytime TV generally comfortable, though direct reflections remain a potential distraction.

Contrast ratio
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
1.9

Weak native contrast is especially obvious with dark movie scenes and letterbox bars, although the 50-inch assessment is less severe.

LG QNED92A
4.8

Mini LED dimming creates striking separation between luminous highlights and dark backgrounds. The strongest scenes look remarkably close to premium LCD competitors.

HDR brightness
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
1.0

Highlights rarely have the intensity HDR material deserves, and the weak peak brightness makes bright scenes look flat rather than spectacular.

LG QNED92A
3.7

Many bright scenes and specular highlights have satisfying punch, but peak HDR intensity falls short of the strongest TCL and Hisense rivals. Very bright scenes also reveal the TV’s limits.

Local dimming performance
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
1.0

Without independent dimming zones, the entire backlight affects blacks and highlights, leaving dark scenes washed out.

LG QNED92A
3.6

Local dimming substantially deepens blacks and strengthens contrast, yet its algorithms sometimes crush shadows or lag behind moving objects. Performance varies noticeably with scene complexity.

Peak brightness
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
1.5

Limited peak luminance prevents eye-catching HDR impact and leaves the screen struggling against strong ambient light.

LG QNED92A
3.8

The panel is bright enough for many real-world scenes, especially in SDR. It is less luminous than several similarly priced Mini LED competitors.

Dark-room performance
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
1.7

Grayish blacks, backlight glow and shallow contrast make dedicated lights-off movie sessions a poor fit, despite respectable image processing.

LG QNED92A
3.8

The 65-inch QNED93/QNED92 renders convincing blacks and atmospheric dark films, but some dimming behavior can crush shadow detail. Halos and banding occasionally distract from otherwise rich contrast.

HDR performance
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
1.8

This is a point of disagreement: some viewers enjoy colorful HDR10 movies, while measurements find weak highlights, low contrast and little advantage over SDR.

LG QNED92A
3.9

Bright HDR films and games can look vivid and dramatic, helped by punchy color and contrast. Some scenes lose bright highlight detail or crush shadows, and competing Mini LEDs can deliver greater impact.

Overall image accuracy
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
5.0

Out-of-box SDR tuning is impressively faithful, with only small deviations in color and gamma.

LG QNED92A
3.3

Filmmaker Mode can look beautifully faithful to the intended image, but several default presets exaggerate color and HDR calibration leaves errors.

Soundstage
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
4.0

Stereo separation can feel wider than expected for a basic 20-watt television, giving dialogue and effects a little room to breathe.

LG QNED92A
2.3

Virtual processing can spread audio wider but often leaves it thin, vague, or lacking believable depth.

Sound quality
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
3.4

Built-in audio is fine or even impressive for many everyday viewers, but weak bass, muddy sound and sporadic audio failures prompt frequent criticism.

LG QNED92A
1.8

The 2.2-channel speakers sound thin and underpowered next to the excellent picture. Several evaluations report weak bass, poor depth, or even distortion at louder settings.

Noise reduction
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
5.0

Compressed videos gain cleaner edges and fewer visible artifacts without excessive sharpening, helping lower-bitrate streaming sources.

LG QNED92A
4.0

Compression smoothing does a good job hiding blockiness and pixelation in low-bitrate streams, at the cost of some fine texture.

White balance accuracy
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
3.0

SDR whites are well tuned, while HDR white balance has a slight cool or blue bias that calibration can reduce.

LG QNED92A
2.0

Default SDR white balance has underrepresented blues and a warmer look; HDR can skew cool. Careful tuning helps SDR considerably.

Gaming performance
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
3.7

Low lag and smooth 4K/60 console play win praise; the slower pixel response, lack of VRR and absence of 120 Hz limit its gaming ceiling.

LG QNED92A

Color accuracy
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
4.7

Natural skin tones and convincing out-of-box SDR color are consistent strengths. Some HDR colors and highly saturated animated content can look less accurate.

LG QNED92A
4.0

Accurate modes can render especially realistic skin tones and natural color, and SDR calibration is effective. Some default presets lean visibly blue or exaggerated, while HDR accuracy is less consistent.

Picture mode tuning
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
4.3

Cinema and other presets offer natural starting points, but some owners find the default power-saving image disappointingly flat until adjusted.

LG QNED92A
3.6

The many picture presets make customization possible, and accurate modes can look excellent. Some default choices run too blue or vivid, while Filmmaker Mode can dim shadows.

Bass performance
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
2.3

Bass is a recurring weak point: dialogue may stay clear, but music, effects and movie explosions lack the depth of an external sound system.

LG QNED92A
1.8

The down-firing speaker system has limited bass presence, leaving dramatic audio effects lacking weight.

Picture detail
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
5.0

Fine textures and faces look crisp, with especially strong results for HD material scaled up to 4K.

LG QNED92A
4.5

Fine textures and edges look crisp with good source material, though bright whites or deep shadows sometimes lose subtle detail.

SDR picture performance
Sony BRAVIA 2 II
4.0

Natural color and sensible Cinema settings give standard-range TV shows and older movies a satisfying look.

LG QNED92A
3.5

SDR can look crisp and bright, but local dimming occasionally darkens dark scenes too aggressively. Brighter programs are the safer match.
