However, if you prioritize picture quality, particularly for movies and gaming in bright rooms, and are willing to invest in a high-end TV, the Sony X95L outperforms the Hisense A6H in terms of display performance and has better motion handling due to a higher refresh rate. The Sony X95L also typically offers better audio options and more advanced features like voice commands. Give Feedback
