If you're looking for an affordable option and mainly watch TV in well-lit rooms, the Hisense A4H could work for you despite its limited performance in picture quality and sound. It's also suitable if you don't need advanced features for gaming, sports, or HDR content. On the other hand, if you’re willing to invest in top-notch picture quality for movies, sports, and gaming, and you value excellent performance in both bright and dark rooms, the Samsung S95C is superior, especially with its impressive OLED display. The Samsung also offers better sound, a wider range of colors, and smoother motion handling. However, it comes at a premium price and would better suit someone who wants a high-end home theater experience. Give Feedback
