The Samsung Q60A offers better performance for sports content and a higher number of HDMI ports which could be useful if you plan to connect multiple devices, but it falls short for gaming and isn't the best for dark room viewing. The Hisense U6G, while generally less expensive, offers good quality for movies and dark room performance. However, its sports viewing experience is fair, and it might not be the best choice if you have a brightly lit room. Both TVs support HDR but the Hisense U6G additionally supports Dolby Vision and HLG, which can enhance your HDR experience with compatible content. If sound is a concern, neither TV has great speakers, so you might consider investing in an external sound system for better audio quality with either choice. Give Feedback

"The least expensive QLED is a solid choice for Samsung fans. Right out of the gate my eye was drawn to the Samsung. It is bright. The quantum dots let the Q60A produce far deeper, richer colors than the Vizio and TCL"
