If you prefer a TV that excels in a bright room and offers a better gaming experience, consider the Hisense U6K. It provides higher performance for movies and series, as well as animation. However, the Amazon Omni Series is generally a bit more expensive and may not perform as well in bright rooms or for gaming, but it's better for watching news, talk shows, and reality TV. The Omni Series also does not support HDR10+, whereas the Hisense U6K does, along with Dolby Vision, which may matter if you're looking for the best HDR experience. Both are in the lower midrange price bracket, so the choice may come down to which of these features are more important to you. Give Feedback

The Hisense U6K (LCD) is good for movies & TV, while the Amazon Omni Series (LCD) is poor.
The Amazon Omni Series struggles with movie viewing due to its lack of local dimming, which negatively affects contrast and black uniformity, essential for deep blacks in dark scenes. On the other hand, the Hisense U6K offers good performance in these areas, with effective local dimming and better black uniformity offering more immersive cinematic experiences.

The Hisense U6K (LCD) is only fair for gaming, while the Amazon Omni Series (LCD) is poor.
The Amazon Omni Series, while offering very good input lag for gaming, is limited by its standard refresh rate of 60Hz and fair response time, leading to its poor gaming performance. In contrast, the Hisense U6K shares the same refresh rate and fair response time but distinguishes itself with better motion processing abilities, indicated as good, allowing for a fair gaming experience.

The Hisense U6K (LCD) is very good for cartoons & animation, while the Amazon Omni Series (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense U6K displays cartoons and animations with vivid and more accurate colors straight out of the box compared to the Amazon Omni Series, which has poorer color performance immediately upon setup. Additionally, the Hisense U6K has a significantly better color gamut, resulting in a wider range of colors and enhancing the viewing experience for colorful content like cartoons.

The Hisense U6K (LCD) is good for news, talk, & other TV, while the Amazon Omni Series (LCD) is only fair.
The Amazon Omni Series performs fairly when watching news and TV programs primarily because it lacks local dimming, which can limit its contrast, and its colors out of the box are not as accurate. In contrast, the Hisense U6K delivers a good experience due to better local dimming supporting its contrast, along with more accurate colors straight out of the box and a wider color gamut, although both have comparable SDR brightness and upscaling capabilities.

The Hisense U6K (LCD) and Amazon Omni Series (LCD) are both only fair for bright room, though the Hisense U6K (LCD) is somewhat better.
Both the Amazon Omni Series and Hisense U6K LCD TVs are considered fair for watching TV in a bright room due to their ability to output a good level of brightness in both SDR and HDR content, which is critical for overcoming ambient light. However, their performance is limited by their poor handling of reflections, which could hinder viewing quality in very bright or sunny rooms, despite both TVs featuring a decent color gamut and volume that contribute somewhat to the overall viewing experience in well-lit environments.

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers Hisense U6K (LCD) to be only fair for sports, while the Amazon Omni Series (LCD) is poor.
The Amazon Omni Series has a poor response time which can cause motion blur during fast-moving sports, and poor reflection handling making it less suitable for brightly lit rooms. The Hisense U6K offers fair performance in these aspects, providing a clearer picture with better motion during sports events and handling reflections somewhat better, but both still have limited viewing angles which could affect the experience from certain seating positions.

"If you want a competent budget screen with some handy features, the Amazon Omni TV delivers an experience that punches well above its price tag. You’ll also get the benefit of Fire TV’s new UI right out of the box. It’s clean and simple to understand, plus it puts content first. In the picture-quality department, the Amazon Omni is a surprising star among some of its dimmer, less colorful rivals."

About Amazon
Amazon, the largest online retailer in North America, has forged partnerships with TCL and Hisense to produce white-label TVs incorporating their Fire OS software. These Amazon-branded TVs typically compete in the low-end and mid-range segments, offering compelling price points. Leveraging their strong reputation, Amazon has swiftly built brand trust in the TV market despite being relatively new to it. To enhance their popularity, these TVs integrate features from the Amazon ecosystem, including Alexa, providing users with a seamless and interconnected TV experience.
About Hisense
Hisense, a Chinese TV manufacturer, entered the US market in approximately 2011 and has since acquired TV divisions from various companies such as Toshiba, Sharp, Hitachi, and NEC.

They offer exceptional value with TVs that often outperform their competitors at similar price points, making them a compelling choice for consumers. In the US, they use Google TV as their smart TV software which provides the largest app selection and a very modern user interface, however it is not as user friendly as the software from other vendors.
