The Hisense U6G may be a better fit if you're looking for a TV with higher overall image quality and better performance in dark rooms, but it falls short when it comes to next-gen gaming features and doesn't have as robust smart features. On the other hand, the Samsung Q60C, while more expensive, offers better reflection handling which is ideal for brighter rooms, along with voice command features that can enhance the smart TV experience, but it does not perform as well when displaying content in a dark environment. Keep in mind that neither TV is particularly suited for advanced gaming due to their refresh rates. Give Feedback

The Hisense U6G (LCD) is only fair for gaming, while the Samsung Q60C (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense U6G has a good response time, which means it can better handle fast-moving images without blurring, essential for a smooth gaming experience; furthermore, it has the highest input lag performance, ensuring a more responsive feel when playing. In comparison, the Samsung Q60C, while also having the highest input lag performance, suffers from poor response time, which can result in more motion blur during fast-paced gaming.

The Hisense U6G (LCD) is very good for news, talk, & other TV, while the Samsung Q60C (LCD) is only fair.
The Hisense U6G excels in upscaling and has very good SDR brightness, making it ideal for watching news and talk shows in various conditions, and its superior contrast enhances the viewing experience. In contrast, the Samsung Q60C's lower contrast and just good SDR brightness limit its performance in these viewing scenarios despite a fair upscaling capability.

The Hisense U6G (LCD) is good for bright room, while the Samsung Q60C (LCD) is only fair.
The Hisense U6G has a higher SDR brightness which helps maintain picture visibility in a bright room and handles reflections adequately, providing a good viewing experience. In contrast, the Samsung Q60C has lower SDR and HDR brightness, which can result in a dimmer image under bright lights, and its reflections handling performance is similar to that of the U6G, but the lower brightness makes it less suitable for well-lit environments.

The Samsung Q60C (LCD) and Hisense U6G (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Hisense U6G is better suited for sports due to its good motion processing and response time, ensuring smoother on-screen action, but its limited viewing angles may reduce visibility from the side. In comparison, the Samsung Q60C handles reflections well, which is beneficial in bright rooms, but its poor motion processing and response time can lead to blurrier images during fast-moving scenes.

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers Hisense U6G (LCD) to be very good for cartoons & animation, while the Samsung Q60C (LCD) is good.
The Hisense U6G is prized for watching cartoons and animation due to its very good color performance out of the box and its expansive color gamut which ensures vibrant and diverse shades. Conversely, while the Samsung Q60C provides good color rendition, it doesn't match the Hisense U6G's range or initial color accuracy, making it slightly less optimal for content that benefits from rich and accurate colors.
