The Hisense A6H is a budget-friendly option that can save you money, but its overall picture quality, especially in dark rooms, is not as strong. It’s suitable for casual gaming and watching animation, but it may struggle in very bright rooms.
The Vizio P-Series is pricier, yet it offers much better picture quality across the board, with exceptional performance in both dark and bright environments. It is also superior for gaming and sports content due to its higher refresh rate and lower input lag. Keep in mind that neither of these TVs have great speakers, so you might consider a separate sound system if audio quality is important to you. Give Feedback

The Vizio P-Series (LCD) is good for gaming, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense A6H is rated poorly for response time, which can cause blurring during fast-moving games, whereas the Vizio P-Series is more suitable for gaming due to a better response time, lessening motion blur. Additionally, the A6H does have a strong input lag performance, which ensures minimal delay between a controller’s input and the on-screen action, but the Vizio's combination of adequate input lag and response time enhances the overall gaming experience.

The Vizio P-Series (LCD) is very good for cartoons & animation, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense A6H has poor color reproduction capabilities both straight out of the box and in its overall color gamut, which leads to subpar performance when watching cartoons and animation that rely on vibrant and varied colors. On the other hand, the Vizio P-Series displays colors very well as soon as it's set up, and with its wider color gamut, it's able to produce a broader range of colors, making it much better for content that demands rich and accurate color representation.

The Vizio P-Series (LCD) is good for news, talk, & other TV, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense A6H performs poorly for news and talk shows mainly due to its low SDR brightness and lackluster upscaling of lower-resolution content. Conversely, the Vizio P-Series excels in these areas with very good SDR brightness and better upscaling quality, making it well-suited for such programming.

The Vizio P-Series (LCD) is very good for bright room, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense A6H struggles in bright rooms due to its lower SDR and HDR brightness and only fair reflection handling, making it less suitable for well-lit environments. In contrast, the Vizio P-Series excels with very good SDR and HDR brightness and excellent reflection handling, offering a clear, vibrant picture even in sunny rooms.

The Hisense A6H (LCD) has a price of $650 and the Vizio P-Series (LCD) costs $998.
The Vizio P-Series (LCD) and Hisense A6H (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Hisense A6H and the Vizio P-Series are both rated as having fair performance when watching sports; the Hisense A6H has better viewing angles which can be beneficial in a wide seating arrangement, but its reflection handling and gray uniformity are not standout features, while the Vizio P-Series, despite lesser viewing angles, offers better reflection handling which can be advantageous in a bright room, and a faster response time reducing motion blur for fast-paced sports action; however, its gray uniformity is only somewhat better, still making it just a fair option for sports enthusiasts.

How the Hisense A6H (LCD) and the Vizio P-Series (LCD) compare to other TVs
"We were even more pleased to see that performance had improved across the board, with the display offering better color, brightness, and shorter lag times than the already excellent Roku model. Color accuracy was great right out of the box. The TCL 5-Series Google TV becomes a great option for demanding gamers."
