If you're on a budget and mainly watch TV in darker rooms, the Hisense R6G could be a better fit due to its better black uniformity, which is helpful in dark settings. However, if you often watch TV in bright rooms, neither the Hisense R6G nor the Insignia F30 are ideal as they both have poor performance in brightly lit environments. If you are looking for TVs that are more affordable overall, the Insignia F30 may suit you, but its overall picture quality is inferior to the Hisense. For gaming and using the TV as a monitor, the Hisense has a slightly better response but both TVs aren't particularly strong in these areas. Neither TV excels in color or motion handling, but the Hisense offers slightly better sound quality and has a voice command feature, which the Insignia lacks. Give Feedback

Michael Gowan | August 2021
"Still one of the best bargain TVs. The best feature remains its quick and responsive implementation of Fire TV OS and all the goodies that come with it. Having Alexa inside the Insignia 4K Ultra HD Fire TV Edition brings a lot of value, from voice control of TV functions to access to your smart home devices."
