Choosing between the Hisense U6G and the Samsung Frame Series depends on your priorities. If budget is a big concern and you want a good value for your money, the Hisense U6G is much less expensive and offers solid performance for everyday viewing. However, if you are interested in a more premium design that can double as a piece of art in your room and offers a higher refresh rate which could be better for fast-moving content like sports or gaming, the Samsung Frame Series is the better option. The Frame Series also boasts better sound quality, but it does not come with a stand and must be wall-mounted. Keep in mind that neither TV is ideal for very bright rooms. Give Feedback

The Hisense U6G (LCD) is good for movies & TV, while the Samsung Frame Series (LCD) is only fair.
The Hisense U6G boasts superior black uniformity and local dimming features, which enhance contrast, making it well-suited for movies and cinematic content, especially in darker scenes. In contrast, the Samsung Frame Series, while offering a decent contrast ratio, lacks effective local dimming, leading to less impressive black uniformity and contrast, reducing the quality of movie watching experiences.

The Samsung Frame Series (LCD) and Hisense U6G (LCD) are both only fair for sports, though the Samsung Frame Series (LCD) is somewhat better.
The Hisense U6G and Samsung Frame Series both have fair capabilities for watching sports, due to the average response time and motion processing which can result in some blur during fast-paced action. While both handle reflections decently, their viewing angles are limited, causing the picture quality to decrease when viewed from the side, which can be problematic in group settings.

The Samsung Frame Series (LCD) is good for gaming, while the Hisense U6G (LCD) is only fair.
The Samsung Frame Series has a better response time and equal input lag compared to the Hisense U6G, making it more suitable for gaming with smoother transitions and minimized delay between input and action on screen. Additionally, the Samsung has a higher refresh rate, which can result in more fluid motion, important for fast-paced games, whereas the Hisense operates at a lower refresh rate which may not be as smooth.
