If you're on a tight budget and looking for a fair overall picture quality for watching cartoons and animations, the Vizio D-Series '22 might suit your needs while saving you money. However, if you want better color performance right out of the box, and support for various HDR formats such as HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and HLG for a richer viewing experience in streaming and 4K content, the Hisense A6H could be the better choice, although it's typically more expensive. The Hisense also has more HDMI ports, which may be beneficial if you plan to connect multiple devices. Both TVs may not be the best choice for very bright rooms or if you're particularly interested in gaming. Give Feedback

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 Vizio
Vizio is an American company. While they initially gained recognition for offering budget-friendly TVs, they have successfully expanded their product lineup to include high-end options as well. They manufacture TVs primarily in Mexico, China, and Vietnam. Similar to many Korean TV brands, Vizio developed its own smart TV software called SmartCast. In the past, SmartCast was not the best smart TV software, but it has evolved so that it is now good for using your TV and connecting to streaming services.
