If you prioritize overall picture quality and sound for movies and series, Amazon Omni QLED may suit you better. On the other hand, if you're looking for a TV with a higher contrast ratio and better performance in bright rooms, the Hisense U6H would be a wise choice. Both TVs struggle with sports content due to their lower scores in that domain. The Hisense is typically less expensive, so if budget is a concern, it offers good value. Neither is ideal for gaming due to moderate gaming scores. Both support popular HDR formats, have decent brightness in HDR, and neither has great speakers. If you often watch in a room with a lot of ambient light, the Hisense may have an edge due to its better reflections handling. Give Feedback

The Hisense U6H (LCD) is very good for news, talk, & other TV, while the Amazon Omni QLED (LCD) is good.
The Hisense U6H stands out for watching news, talk shows, and other TV programs due to its excellent upscaling ability and favorable colors straight out of the box, which means that lower-resolution content will look better and colors will be vibrant without needing adjustments. On the other hand, the Amazon Omni QLED is good in these aspects as well, but it doesn't excel to the same degree in upscaling, although it does have a very good color gamut and out-of-the-box colors, suggesting the picture will be rich and varied but may not improve lower-quality sources as much.
The Amazon Omni QLED (LCD) and Hisense U6H (LCD) both have good picture quality.

The Amazon Omni QLED (LCD) and Hisense U6H (LCD) are both good for movies & TV.
The Amazon Omni QLED provides exceptional contrast and black uniformity, ideal for deep black scenes in movies, but the viewing angle is limited, which may reduce the picture quality when viewed from the side. The Hisense U6H also offers strong contrast and black uniformity for movie watching, along with a slightly wider viewing angle, which could provide a better viewing experience for groups spread out across a room.

The Amazon Omni QLED (LCD) and Hisense U6H (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Amazon Omni QLED has a fair response time, and while it does an adequate job at handling reflections and has decent viewing angles, its motion processing is not optimal for sports. The Hisense U6H also exhibits a fair response time and manages reflections similarly but suffers from poor motion processing and narrower viewing angles, affecting its performance for sports watching. Both TVs show weaknesses in areas that are very important for sports viewing, such as response time and motion processing, as well as handling reflections and viewing angles, albeit with some differences.

The Amazon Omni QLED (LCD) and Hisense U6H (LCD) are both only fair for gaming.
The Amazon Omni QLED's response time is described as fair, indicating that it has decent performance for gaming, but it falls short of delivering the smoothest experience during fast-moving scenes; conversely, its input lag is rated as very good, suggesting that gamers will experience minimal delay between their inputs and the on-screen action. In contrast, the Hisense U6H has poorer response time, leading to more noticeable delays in visual changes when gaming, yet it matches the Amazon Omni QLED with very good input lag, thereby ensuring that interactions remain responsive.

The Hisense U6H (LCD) and Amazon Omni QLED (LCD) are both very good for cartoons & animation.
The Amazon Omni QLED (LCD) is well-regarded for cartoons and animation due to its good color accuracy out of the box, which means vibrant colors without the need for calibration, and a very good color gamut that ensures a wide range of hues. In contrast, the Hisense U6H (LCD) is also highly suitable for this content with its excellent out-of-the-box color accuracy and a good color gamut, though it may not display as wide a range of colors as the Amazon Omni QLED.

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers Hisense U6H (LCD) to be good for bright room, while the Amazon Omni QLED (LCD) is only fair.
The Amazon Omni QLED TV's fair performance in a bright room is due to lower brightness capacity and reflections handling compared to the Hisense U6H, which is rated better in these aspects. Additionally, while both TVs have similar contrast and color volume, the Hisense U6H's better color gamut can provide a more vibrant and varied picture, enhancing the viewing experience in a well-lit environment.

How the Amazon Omni QLED (LCD) and the Hisense U6H (LCD) compare to other TVs
"This really is a TV designed for the streaming generation ... And it’s good to see support for both HDR10+ and Dolby Vision because it means more of the content you stream will be available in HDR. Overall, the Omni QLED is an impressive TV. It’s pretty bright, has good contrast and – thanks to those quantum dots – vibrant colours."
"A budget TV that exceeds expectations. (...) For a TV that costs as little as this one does, its brightness and color are above-average (...) The U6H may not get quite as bright as its splashier siblings, but for its class, it fares pretty well. (...) As far as input lag, the U6H is an impressive performer. (...) Costing less than most of its direct competitors, and matching or bettering them in several key areas, it’s an irresistible value proposition. (...)"
