The Hisense A65K is a budget-friendly option that provides a satisfactory experience for animations and news, talk, & reality TV, along with acceptable picture quality in bright rooms. On the other hand, the LG NANO90, while typically more expensive, offers a superior experience for gaming with higher response times and input lag scores. It also performs better in bright rooms and includes a 120Hz screen refresh rate that enhances fast motion clarity, which is especially beneficial for watching sports and gaming. Neither TV is particularly outstanding in dark rooms. Consider the LG NANO90 if gaming and sports viewing are priorities and you are prepared to pay more. If budget is a constraint and your focus is on general viewing content, the Hisense A65K might be the more appropriate choice. Give Feedback

The LG NANO90 (LCD) and Hisense A65K (LCD) are both only fair for sports, though the LG NANO90 (LCD) is somewhat better.
The Hisense A65K has a fair response time which can make fast-moving sports scenes look a bit blurry, and its reflection handling is only fair, which could be bothersome in well-lit rooms. By contrast, the LG NANO90 offers better motion processing due to its good response time, reducing blur in sports, and has very good reflection handling, making it a better choice for bright rooms, but its wider viewing angles could still present slightly uneven gray uniformity during gameplay.

The LG NANO90 (LCD) is very good for gaming, while the Hisense A65K (LCD) is poor.
The LG NANO90 offers better gaming performance compared to Hisense A65K mainly due to its faster response time which leads to less motion blur and its better handling of fast-moving content. Additionally, while both have low input lag ensuring a responsive gaming experience, the LG NANO90 with its higher refresh rate allows for smoother visuals particularly in fast-paced games.

The Hisense A65K (LCD) is good for cartoons & animation, while the LG NANO90 (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense A65K is preferred for cartoons and animation due to its stronger performance with colors right out of the box, and its color gamut is more suitable for the vividness often required for such content. Conversely, the LG NANO90, while still a competent TV, doesn't offer as rich and accurate colors initially, which is less ideal for colorful and dynamic animation viewing.

The Hisense A65K (LCD) and LG NANO90 (LCD) are both poor for movies & TV.
The Hisense A65K struggles with watching movies and cinematic TV due to its poor local dimming and black uniformity which result in less profound dark scenes, while the LG NANO90, despite better local dimming, suffers because of its low contrast ratio and subpar black uniformity that lead to washed-out blacks and less depth in dark areas. Both TVs also present challenges with colors and gray uniformity out of the box which can impact the representation of realistic and consistent images across the screen.

The Hisense A65K (LCD) and LG NANO90 (LCD) are both only fair for news, talk, & other TV.
When watching news and talk shows on the Hisense A65K, the upscaling is good and the colors out of the box are rated very good, which makes for a pleasing image with common content, but its performance in bright rooms is only fair due to lower brightness. Meanwhile, the LG NANO90 also has good upscaling that helps with lower-resolution content, but it has poorer colors out of the box which may require adjustments; however, the colors will likely look more uniform across the screen thanks to better contrast and local dimming features.

The LG NANO90 (LCD) and Hisense A65K (LCD) are both only fair for bright room.
The Hisense A65K performs adequately in a bright room due to its fair reflection handling and SDR brightness but has limited HDR brightness, affecting its ability to pop in brighter scenes. The LG NANO90, offering better reflection handling and higher SDR and HDR brightness, performs better in bright rooms but may have less impressive contrast and color volume compared to some other models, which can affect the depth of images and color reproduction.

"The A65K proved to be a rather capable TV that works great within its extreme limitations that its price dictates. It has great contrast, very low input lag and good color coverage. Add Google TV and a low price in the mix and you have an excellent low budget offering."

"Here we have HDR pictures that look bright, but also manage to typically hit decently deep black levels.WebOS continues, though, to be one of the easiest to use. Connections are strong for a mid-range TV. Native 4K pictures look crisp and detailed."
