If you prefer a budget-friendly option and primarily watch news or daytime TV shows in a well-lit room, the Hisense A4H could suffice despite its overall poor performance in picture quality. However, if you are willing to invest in a higher quality viewing experience for movies, sports, and gaming, and you desire better performance in both dark and bright rooms, the LG C1 with its OLED screen and superior picture quality may be worth the higher cost. Keep in mind, the LG C1 also has better sound, a wider array of advanced features like support for multiple HDR formats, and a higher refresh rate that is beneficial for fast-paced content and gaming.

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.
