The Hisense U6G is a great choice if budget is a primary concern, as it costs significantly less than the LG B3. It will suit standard viewing experiences well, especially for general TV and news watching in a variety of lighting conditions. However, the LG B3 might be the better option if you're looking for top-notch picture quality and performance for movies, sports, and gaming, particularly in dark rooms, due to its OLED technology. Remember that the B3's OLED screen risks burn-in with static images, whereas the U6G's LCD is immune to this. OLED also typically displays more vibrant colors and deeper blacks than LCD. The LG B3 offers a smoother experience for gaming thanks to a higher refresh rate, but it will cost more. Give Feedback

The LG B3 (OLED) is excellent for movies & TV, while the Hisense U6G (LCD) is good.
The LG B3 OLED excels in watching movies and cinematic TV due to its perfect contrast, exceptional black uniformity, and wider viewing angles, which enhances the overall dark scene performance and color accuracy from various angles. In contrast, the Hisense U6G LCD, while still providing good performance with decent local dimming and black uniformity, falls short of the LG B3 in these areas, thus offering a less immersive cinematic experience.

The LG B3 (OLED) is very good for sports, while the Hisense U6G (LCD) is only fair.
The LG B3 OLED excels in sports due to its excellent response time and motion processing, reducing motion blur and offering a smoother visual experience, along with handling reflections better and providing wide viewing angles which is important for larger groups. In contrast, the Hisense U6G LCD handles motion well but not as good as the LG, and has more limited viewing angles along with a fair performance in handling reflections, making it less ideal for sports in bright rooms or with wider seating arrangements.
