The Hisense U6G (LCD) is good for movies & TV, while the Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense U6G is better for movies and cinematic TV because it has a significantly higher contrast and superior black uniformity compared to the Vizio V-Series '22, which results in deeper blacks and more pronounced shadows crucial for a rich viewing experience. While the Vizio fares better in colors out of the box, which could make it initially seem more vibrant, the compromise in contrast and black uniformity makes it less suitable for movie watchers who value a more cinematic picture quality.

The Hisense U6G (LCD) is only fair for gaming, while the Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense U6G has a good response time and the best input lag, making it suitable for gaming by reducing blur and ensuring quicker reactions to on-screen events. On the other hand, the Vizio V-Series '22, despite having good input lag, has only fair response time, which might result in more blur during fast-moving scenes, making it less ideal for gaming.

The Hisense U6G (LCD) is very good for news, talk, & other TV, while the Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense U6G excels in upscaling and SDR brightness, which makes it very good for watching news and TV programs as it can effectively enhance lower resolution content and display it brightly enough for clear viewing. In contrast, the Vizio V-Series '22 struggles with these aspects, offering a poorer upscaling performance and less effective SDR brightness, which results in a less optimal experience for the same content. Additionally, the Hisense has better color accuracy out of the box and a wider color gamut, contributing further to a more vivid and accurate picture compared to the Vizio.

The Hisense U6G (LCD) is good for bright room, while the Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense U6G offers very good SDR brightness and good HDR brightness, ensuring visibility in bright rooms, while the Vizio V-Series '22 struggles with fair SDR and poor HDR brightness, which may result in washed-out images in well-lit environments. Both TVs are rated fairly for handling reflections, but the significantly brighter screens of the Hisense U6G give it an edge over the Vizio in bright room viewing.

The Hisense U6G (LCD) and Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Hisense U6G has a good response time which is better for fast-moving sports scenes than the Vizio V-Series '22, but both models struggle with motion processing which can lead to blur during quick movement. The Vizio has inferior reflection handling than the Hisense, potentially reducing visibility in bright rooms, and both have limited viewing angles making them less suitable for wide-seating arrangements; additionally, their gray uniformity is only fair which may affect the appearance of playing fields in sports.

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.
