The Hisense A6H is a bit less expensive than the Vizio V-Series. The Vizio V-Series offers a better overall picture quality compared to the Hisense A6H, but both TVs may not perform impressively in bright rooms and neither has local dimming to improve dark room performance. The Hisense A6H has slightly higher gaming performance whereas the Vizio has slightly better performance for news, talk shows, and sports. If the budget is a primary concern and you're focused more on gaming, the Hisense might be the more appealing option. If you're willing to spend a bit more for a better all-around viewing experience, especially for watching movies and daily TV programming, the Vizio V-Series could suit you better. Give Feedback

The Vizio V-Series (LCD) is only fair for movies & TV, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense A6H performs poorly in watching movies and cinematic TV due to its lower contrast and weaker black uniformity, which are important for deep blacks and shadow detail. In contrast, the Vizio V-Series offers better contrast and black uniformity, making it fairer in performance for these types of content, though it still has limitations in these aspects compared to higher-end TVs.

The Vizio V-Series (LCD) is good for cartoons & animation, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is only fair.
The Hisense A6H displays cartoons and animations as subpar due to its limited color gamut and dull colors out of the box, while the Vizio V-Series is preferred for such content because it boasts a wider color gamut and vibrant colors straight out of the package, making the picture pop which is essential for animated content.

The Hisense A6H (LCD) and Vizio V-Series (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Hisense A6H and Vizio V-Series are both rated fair for sports viewing mainly due to their response time and motion processing, which are not as quick or sophisticated as higher-rated models, leading to some motion blur. While the Hisense has wider viewing angles, making it better for watching with a group, both struggle with reflections and have only decent gray uniformity, which can affect the viewing experience during sports games with uniform colors across the screen like a football field.

The Hisense A6H (LCD) and Vizio V-Series (LCD) are both poor for gaming.
The Hisense A6H and Vizio V-Series are considered poor for gaming primarily because both have relatively slow response times and high input lag, which are crucial for gaming. Additionally, they both feature a refresh rate of 60Hz, which is lower than the 120Hz or higher found in TVs that provide a smoother gaming experience.

The Vizio V-Series (LCD) and Hisense A6H (LCD) are both only fair for news, talk, & other TV.
The Hisense A6H is rated lower for watching news, talk shows, and other TV programs because it has poorer SDR brightness, meaning it doesn't get as bright as the Vizio V-Series under similar conditions, and this can affect the visibility of the image. Moreover, although both TVs do not have local dimming to enhance contrast, the Vizio V-Series has better upscaling quality, resulting in clearer images from lower resolution content which is common with regular TV broadcasts.

The Vizio V-Series (LCD) and Hisense A6H (LCD) are both poor for bright room.
The Hisense A6H and Vizio V-Series are considered poor for watching TV in bright rooms because both have low SDR and HDR brightness and only fair performance in reflection handling. The Vizio, however, offers a higher contrast which can partially mitigate these issues, whereas the Hisense has a lower contrast which can further diminish its viewing experience in bright settings.

Geoffrey Morrison | June 2021
"Vizio's cheapest 4K HDR TV packs in a lot for a low price. The voice control via the remote works well, about as well as Roku's version on devices that have it. So if you know your way around a TV menu, or want to be able to dial in the picture even on an inexpensive TV, the Vizio is the better choice"

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.
