If you're on a tight budget and mainly watch content in well-lit rooms, the Samsung N5200 might satisfy your needs despite its overall lower picture quality. However, if you can invest more, the Hisense U6H offers much better picture quality for movies, series, and cartoons, making it suitable for various content types, especially in dark rooms. The U6H also supports more advanced HDR formats which are important for newer content but has a narrower viewing angle, possibly making it less suitable for wide seating arrangements. If gaming is a priority, neither TV excels, but the Hisense provides a slightly better experience. Both TVs struggle in very bright rooms and have very basic sound systems, so external speakers could be necessary for improved audio. Give Feedback

Tom's guide
Matthew Murray | March 2023
"A budget TV that exceeds expectations. (...) For a TV that costs as little as this one does, its brightness and color are above-average (...) The U6H may not get quite as bright as its splashier siblings, but for its class, it fares pretty well. (...) As far as input lag, the U6H is an impressive performer. (...) Costing less than most of its direct competitors, and matching or bettering them in several key areas, it’s an irresistible value proposition. (...)"
