When choosing between the Hisense A6H and the TCL S446, consider the following: The Hisense A6H is often slightly less expensive than the TCL S446. For gaming, the TCL offers a slightly better experience than the Hisense. For watching sports, the TCL also holds an advantage, offering a clearer image with better motion handling. If you watch a lot of movies, series or news and talk shows, the TCL is a stronger performer in those categories. For those who prioritize sound quality, note that the Hisense has slightly better sound than the TCL. Both TVs are budget-friendly and are LCDs with LED IPS panels, suitable for a wide viewing angle. They lack local dimming, affecting their ability to display deep blacks, which is something to consider if you view content with dark scenes. Lastly, both TVs support multiple HDR formats, but the TCL does not support Dolby Vision and HGiG, which could be important if you want the best available HDR experience. 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 TCL

TCL, the highly recognizable TV brand from China, has firmly established itself as the second-largest manufacturer in terms of sales volume. Renowned for striking an impressive balance between affordability, picture quality, and design, TCL TVs deliver a compelling overall package. While they have traditionally excelled in the low-end and midrange TV segments, TCL has recently made remarkable strides in the realm of high-end televisions, introducing impressive models that rival top competitors. Most TCL TVs use Roku software which is very user friendly and easy to use, but they have a few other models that use Google TV which has the largest app selection, but is not as user friendly as Roku.
