If you're on a tight budget, the Hisense A4H could be an economical choice, but it offers poor performance across the board, so it won't deliver a great viewing experience, whether you're watching movies, sports, gaming or using it in a bright room. The LG C2, on the other hand, while more expensive, provides excellent picture quality, gaming experience, and sports viewing, and performs well in both dark and moderately bright rooms. If you watch a lot of high-quality content, like movies and series in 4K, and gaming is a priority for you, then the LG C2 could be worth the investment. It also has the advantage of better sound quality and advanced features like Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos. However, if price is your primary concern and you have simple viewing needs, the Hisense A4H could suffice. Give Feedback

CNET
David Katzmaier | November 2022
"The C2 offers image quality that's a clear step above any non-OLED TV I've seen. The C2 is rare among high-end TVs in that all four of its HDMI ports support 4K/120, great for hard-core gamers with multiple next-gen devices. The C2 is plenty bright enough for just about any viewing environment. It also outperforms QLED TVs like the Samsung QN90B and TCL 6-Series. That's why I consider the LG C2 the best high-end TV for the money of 2022."

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. Currently ranking as the fourth largest vendor in terms of sales volume, Hisense aims to capture a wide range of TV budget segments. 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.
About LG
LG, a prominent TV brand from Korea, has played a significant role in popularizing OLED TVs. OLED technology is hailed as the future of TV technology. Their TVs employ WebOS, a proprietary smart TV software that not only offers seamless functionality but also includes gaming-specific features, earning praise from players worldwide. Often regarded as the gateway to unparalleled viewing experiences, LG's mid-range OLEDs come highly recommended, making them a worthwhile investment for those willing to stretch their budget for superior quality.
