If you frequently play video games and want a TV with better gaming performance, consider the Samsung Q70A due to its higher gaming score. However, if you're looking for a more affordable option that still offers good overall picture quality for movies and regular TV shows, the Hisense U6H could be a better choice. Keep in mind that the Hisense U6H performs better in darker rooms while the Samsung Q70A has a slight advantage in bright rooms. Neither TV has great speakers, so if audio is important to you, you might want to invest in a soundbar or external speakers for either model. Give Feedback

The Hisense U6H (LCD) is good for movies & TV, while the Samsung Q70A (LCD) is only fair.
The Hisense U6H is considered good for watching movies and cinematic TV due to its strong contrast, effective local dimming, and decent black uniformity, all of which enhance the viewing experience in dark scenes prevalent in movies. Conversely, while the Samsung Q70A offers excellent contrast and black uniformity, it lacks local dimming which is crucial for producing deeper blacks and maintaining image quality in movies and cinematic content, leading to its fair performance in that category.

The Samsung Q70A (LCD) and Hisense U6H (LCD) are both only fair for sports, though the Samsung Q70A (LCD) is somewhat better.
The Hisense U6H struggles with response time and handling reflections, which can be noticeable when watching fast-paced sports action and in bright rooms. On the other hand, the Samsung Q70A manages reflections and motion better due to its superior response time, but its less impressive viewing angles can reduce the quality of the sports-watching experience for those sitting off to the side.

The Samsung Q70A (LCD) is good for gaming, while the Hisense U6H (LCD) is only fair.
The Samsung Q70A outshines the Hisense U6H in gaming because it has a much better response time and lower input lag, both critical for a smooth gaming experience. Furthermore, the Samsung Q70A supports a higher refresh rate, which is beneficial for more fluid motion during fast-paced gaming.

The Hisense U6H (LCD) is very good for news, talk, & other TV, while the Samsung Q70A (LCD) is good.
Hisense U6H excels with excellent colors out of the box, meaning it displays accurate colors for news and talk shows without the need for additional tweaking. While the Samsung Q70A also has very good color accuracy, the U6H shines in SDR brightness, making it a better option for rooms with some ambient light; however, the Q70A provides stronger contrast, which can be beneficial for darker rooms or for content with deep blacks.

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. (...)"
