Pros
Pro Deals with the low-resolution content very well
The Sony X690E can upscale the low-resolution 480p/720p/1080p content quite well, without introducing any artifacts which makes it an excellent option for those who want to watch over-the-air broadcasts, old DVDs or Blu-rays.
Pro Good for gaming
While hooked-up with a current-generation gaming console, the Sony X690E offers a smooth and fluid gaming experience thanks to its excellent motion handling capabilities and low input lag.
The motion looks smooth and isn't blurry because of the TV's fast response time. It takes roughly 14 milliseconds for the TV's pixels to change their color which eliminates a lot of the unwanted motion blur effect.
The X690E offers exceptional responsiveness thanks to its low input lag. While in the 'Gaming' mode the TV's input lag drops to roughly 20 milliseconds, which means that you will not feel the delay between pressing a controller's button and seeing the actual thing happening on the screen.
Pro Ideal for bright rooms
The VIZIO P-Series Quantum is an excellent option for bright rooms with lots of windows thanks to its ability to fight reflections and heavy glare. The TV's glossy, anti-reflective screen finish dims the incoming light and eliminates reflections, while the TV's enormous peak brightness deals with glare effectively.
Pro Exceptional picture quality
The VIZIO P-Series Quantum has the picture quality that is significantly better than what the other TVs in its price range offer. It can display deep and immersive blacks as well as some vivid and eye-catching colors no matter if the TV is placed in a bright or a dark environment.
Cons
Con Can't fight glare
The Sony X690E is not the best TV to place in a bright room with lots of windows because it's not bright enough to fight glare. Its peak brightness is only 250 nits, which is noticeably less compared to what the other TVs in its price range offer.
Con Bad for HDR gaming
The HDR gaming doesn't feel responsive on the P-Series Quantum because its fast 'gaming' HDMI port cannot process the HDR signal, and as a result, you'll need to use a slower HDMI port whose input lag measures at around 27 milliseconds.
