If you want to save money and don't mind lower picture quality, the Hisense A4H could work for you, but its poor scores in almost all viewing categories mean it's not suited for a high-quality viewing experience. On the other hand, the Samsung Q60C costs more but offers better picture quality and is particularly strong for gaming, with a 'Best in Class' input lag score. It also supports more HDR formats, which may improve your viewing experience for newer content. However, for bright room viewing, neither TV is ideal, but the Samsung has a slight edge. Give Feedback
