The Hisense A6H is much less expensive and offers good value for daily TV watching and gaming at a budget price, but it may not deliver the best experience in very bright rooms or for high-frame-rate gaming due to its 60Hz panel. On the other hand, the Samsung Frame Series costs considerably more and is designed to blend in with home decor, acting as a digital art display when not in use. It boasts a higher refresh rate panel suitable for fast-paced content and gaming, and offers better performance in bright rooms. Evaluate if the design and enhanced features are worth the investment over price savings with the Hisense A6H. Give Feedback

The Samsung Frame Series (LCD) is only fair for movies & TV, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense A6H struggles with movies and cinematic TV primarily due to its poor contrast and black uniformity which results in less defined dark scenes, despite decent color accuracy out of the box. On the other hand, although the Samsung Frame Series also lacks local dimming, it performs better with higher contrast and better black uniformity, leading to more impactful dark scenes for viewing movies.

The Samsung Frame Series (LCD) and Hisense A6H (LCD) are both only fair for sports, though the Samsung Frame Series (LCD) is somewhat better.
The Hisense A6H is suitable for sports due to its wide viewing angles, which makes it easy to see from different positions in a room, but it has a lower motion processing capability, which might not smooth out fast action as effectively. Meanwhile, the Samsung Frame Series handles reflections better, offering a clearer picture in well-lit environments and has good response time for fast-moving objects, but its narrower viewing angles could limit the view for those sitting off to the side.

The Samsung Frame Series (LCD) is good for gaming, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense A6H has a poor response time, which can lead to motion blur during fast-paced games, while the Samsung Frame Series offers a very good response time, providing a clearer picture during quick movements. In terms of input lag, both TVs are rated the best, ensuring minimal delay between user input and on-screen action, but the Samsung's superior response time makes it more suitable for gaming.

The Samsung Frame Series (LCD) is very good for cartoons & animation, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense A6H falls short in providing vibrant and varied colors needed for cartoons and animation due to its poor color gamut, which affects the range of colors displayed, while the Samsung Frame Series excels with a good color gamut, ensuring a wide array of colors that are essential for animated content. Additionally, the Samsung Frame Series has better color volume, which contributes to its ability to maintain color accuracy across different brightness levels, making it very suitable for watching cartoons and animations where consistent quality in varied scenes is important.

The Samsung Frame Series (LCD) is good for bright room, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is poor.
The Samsung Frame Series performs better in a bright room because it has higher SDR brightness and better reflections handling compared to the Hisense A6H, ensuring clearer visibility when dealing with ambient light. While both TVs are not particularly outstanding in HDR brightness, contrast, and color aspects, the superior reflections handling and SDR brightness of the Samsung make it more suitable for brighter environments.
