The Hisense U6G (LCD) is good for movies & TV, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense A6H struggles with movie and cinematic TV watching due to its lower contrast, lack of local dimming, and poor black uniformity, which are crucial for dark scenes details. In comparison, the Hisense U6G performs better with these types of content because it has higher contrast, effective local dimming, and excellent black uniformity, ensuring richer blacks and more depth in darker picture areas.

The Hisense U6G (LCD) is only fair for gaming, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense A6H is rated lower in gaming due to its poor response time which affects how quickly it can display game actions, even though it has very low input lag which is good for responsiveness. In contrast, the Hisense U6G is considered better for gaming because it has a good response time, allowing for smoother motion in games, and also benefits from low input lag, making it more responsive to user inputs.

The Hisense U6G (LCD) is very good for cartoons & animation, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is only fair.
The Hisense A6H struggles with cartoons and animation mainly due to poor color gamut and below-average color volume, resulting in less vibrant colors. Meanwhile, the Hisense U6G performs very well as it offers a good color gamut and color volume, producing rich and accurate colors that enhance the viewing experience for animated content.

The Hisense U6G (LCD) is very good for news, talk, & other TV, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is only fair.
The Hisense U6G excels in displaying news and talk shows as it features very good SDR brightness, enhancing visibility in bright rooms, and its superior contrast provides deeper blacks, important for overall picture quality. On the other hand, the Hisense A6H underperforms due to its poor SDR brightness and low contrast, which affects its ability to deliver sharp and clear images for typical TV programs.

The Hisense U6G (LCD) is good for bright room, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense A6H struggles in bright rooms because it has poor SDR and HDR brightness, which means it doesn't get very bright, and its reflection handling is only fair, resulting in a compromised viewing experience with ambient light. Conversely, the Hisense U6G is suitable for bright rooms since it has very good SDR brightness and good HDR brightness, which enable it to shine in well-lit environments, and despite having fair reflection handling like the A6H, its significantly enhanced brightness helps to mitigate glare.

The Hisense A6H (LCD) has a price of $238 and the Hisense U6G (LCD) costs $398.
The Hisense A6H (LCD) and Hisense U6G (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Hisense A6H has inferior motion processing and response time, leading to potential motion blur during fast-moving sports scenes, but offers better viewing angles that maintain image consistency when watched from the side. On the other hand, the Hisense U6G handles reflections better and has a good response time which is crucial for clarity in sports, but it has narrower viewing angles which could affect picture quality when not sitting directly in front of the TV.
