If you're on a budget, the Hisense A6H may be more appealing as it's significantly less expensive than the LG UP8000. In a bright room, the LG UP8000 is the better choice, with its performance superior to the A6H. For sports content, the LG UP8000 also has an edge, making it favorable for dynamic scenes. However, neither TV is particularly strong in a dark room setting. The Hisense A6H has a slightly better response time, which could be beneficial for gaming, but the LG UP8000 has marginally better sound quality and more effective at reducing reflections. It's important to weigh these factors against the price difference when making your decision. Give Feedback

The LG UP8000 (LCD) and Hisense A6H (LCD) are both poor for movies & TV.
The Hisense A6H and the LG UP8000 both deliver poor experiences for watching movies and cinematic TV due to their low contrast, lack of local dimming, and subpar black uniformity, which are very important for producing deep blacks and a high-quality image in darker scenes. Additionally, despite decent colors out of the box and viewing angles, these TVs still struggle with color volume and gray uniformity which are somewhat important for a more vibrant and consistent picture across different scenes.

The LG UP8000 (LCD) and Hisense A6H (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Hisense A6H has a slower response time compared to the LG UP8000, potentially making the LG better for fast-moving sports action, however, both models handle reflections differently; the LG UP8000 handles them better and is more suitable for bright rooms compared to the Hisense A6H. Both TVs exhibit similar gray uniformity and viewing angles, which are decent for watching sports, but they won't excel in delivering a very uniform image across the screen or maintain picture quality at wide angles.

The LG UP8000 (LCD) and Hisense A6H (LCD) are both poor for cartoons & animation.
The Hisense A6H has very good colors out of the box but a poor color gamut, leading to less vibrant cartoons, while the LG UP8000 has good out-of-box color accuracy but also struggles with a poor color gamut and color volume, making animations less lively on both TVs. Both models lack in contrast and SDR brightness, which are somewhat important, resulting in less punch in colorful scenes typical in cartoons and animation.

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers LG UP8000 (LCD) to be only fair for news, talk, & other TV, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense A6H is seen as poor for watching news and TV programs mainly due to its subpar upscaling of low-resolution content and disappointing SDR brightness, making it less ideal for bright room viewing. The LG UP8000, although only rated fair in the same category, performs slightly better with equal upscaling capability but improved SDR brightness, which offers a better viewing experience in well-lit conditions.

How the Hisense A6H (LCD) and the LG UP8000 (LCD) compare to other TVs
"What we liked on this one was the very sharp 4K images it could display, its good up-scaling capabilities, nice viewing angles and extremely low input lag. Lastly the new webOS 6.0 is great even if it needs some time to get your bearings while the redesigned Magic Remote feels fresh even if functionality remains the same."
