If you're on a budget, the Hisense R6G offers the basics at an affordable price, but its performance in bright rooms and for gaming is not particularly strong. The Vizio P-Series costs more, yet it provides better picture quality, especially in bright environments and has superior gaming capabilities. For movie enthusiasts and sports fans, the Vizio P-Series cater to better dark room performance and motion processing. If sound is a concern, neither TV comes with great speakers, so you may need external solutions. Opt for the Hisense R6G if saving money is paramount; choose the Vizio P-Series if improved picture and gaming experience are worth the extra investment. Give Feedback

"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."

About Hisense
Hisense, a Chinese TV manufacturer, entered the US market in approximately 2011 and has since acquired TV divisions from various companies such as Toshiba, Sharp, Hitachi, and NEC. Currently ranking as the fourth largest vendor in terms of sales volume, Hisense aims to capture a wide range of TV budget segments. They offer exceptional value with TVs that often outperform their competitors at similar price points, making them a compelling choice for consumers. In the US, they use Google TV as their smart TV software which provides the largest app selection and a very modern user interface, however it is not as user friendly as the software from other vendors.
About Vizio
Vizio is an American company. While they initially gained recognition for offering budget-friendly TVs, they have successfully expanded their product lineup to include high-end options as well. They manufacture TVs primarily in Mexico, China, and Vietnam. Similar to many Korean TV brands, Vizio developed its own smart TV software called SmartCast. In the past, SmartCast was not the best smart TV software, but it has evolved so that it is now good for using your TV and connecting to streaming services.
