If price is a major concern and you want a solid TV that offers good value, the Hisense A6H could be a suitable choice. However, because the Sony X90L has superior overall performance, especially with motion handling and brightness, which is great for sports and use in bright rooms, it might be worth the extra cost. For movie enthusiasts, the better contrast of the Sony X90L may also be appealing. Gamers might find the Sony more attractive as well, due to its higher refresh rate and advanced gaming features. Keep in mind the Hisense might not be as well-suited for bright rooms or fast-moving content. Give Feedback

The Sony X90L (LCD) is good for sports, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is only fair.
The Sony X90L is better for watching sports because it has superior motion processing and a faster response time, which reduces motion blur and makes fast-moving content clearer. On the other hand, while the Hisense A6H does handle reflections slightly better, its slower response time and lack of motion processing can result in more motion blur, making it less ideal for sports.

The Sony X90L (LCD) is very good for gaming, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense A6H has poor response time, which is essential for smooth transitions in fast-paced games, and although it has excellent input lag, it may not be as responsive for gaming overall. In contrast, the Sony X90L offers very good response time as well as good input lag, making it more suitable for a seamless gaming experience.

The Sony X90L (LCD) is very good for cartoons & animation, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense A6H struggles with cartoons and animation largely due to its poor color gamut, which limits the range of colors displayed, and because of only a fair score in color volume, indicating a less robust range of colors at differing brightness levels. Conversely, the Sony X90L performs very well with these types of content thanks to a good color gamut, allowing for a wide spectrum of colors, and a very good color volume, ensuring vibrant colors across various brightnesses.

The Sony X90L (LCD) is excellent for news, talk, & other TV, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is poor.
The Sony X90L outperforms the Hisense A6H when viewing news and TV programs, mainly due to the Sony's excellent upscaling abilities and high SDR brightness, which ensure clearer and more vibrant images even in lower-resolution content. In comparison, the Hisense A6H offers poorer upscaling and low SDR brightness, leading to less impressive picture quality for daily content watching.
