I'm trying not to be biased since I have purchased the A95K recently. The black level and less contrast that you are talking about is only in the showroom environment where ambient light is the one that may cause purple(?) tint while showing black levels, at the same ambient lights, G2 shows better black levels - no purple tint at all. However, in the absence of this ambient light, the black levels are exactly same, both of them are OLEDs. So, if you find yourself in similar conditions, G2 makes more sense.
I've set it up in the relatively dark room. My movie watching time is mostly in the evening hours. I was used to watch 55C8 in the past (mostly isf Darkroom settings+ some tunning). With this A95K when the it switches to DV Dark mode when I watch the DV movies, the sudden brighter scenes actually hurt my eyes in a few instances, its that bright. In the last couple days again I found it to be way too bright, went back to check if its switched to DV dark/light mode, and it was not, the brightness level on my custom mode was still set around 40-45.
I guess I'm liking the color volume, accuracy and color brightness here. Had it been G2, I'd have adjusted to it and enjoyed it as well, its just that one notices the difference when compared side by side, especially in the dark room.
