The Hisense R6G is budget-friendly and offers good contrast, making it suitable for dark rooms, though it underperforms in bright rooms and for gaming. In contrast, the Samsung Q80C, while more expensive, excels in bright room performance, gaming, and has better sound quality. If you mostly watch movies and series in a dim environment and wish to save money, the Hisense R6G could suffice. However, if you're a gamer, value a vibrant display in well-lit conditions, or want more responsive performance, the additional investment in the Samsung Q80C might be the better option.
