The Hisense U6G, being much less expensive than the Samsung QN95B, is a budget-friendly option that delivers good picture quality for movies and general use, but it may not be as bright, making it less ideal for well-lit rooms. On the other hand, the Samsung QN95B costs more, yet offers superior brightness and picture performance across various content including sports and gaming, and its higher refresh rate makes fast-moving scenes appear smoother, which is especially beneficial for gaming. If you prioritize a premium viewing experience in a variety of settings including brighter rooms, and don't mind spending more, then the Samsung QN95B is the better option. However, if you are looking to save money and your viewing environment is controlled or darker, the Hisense U6G could suffice. Give Feedback

The Samsung QN95B (LCD) is best in class for bright room, while the Hisense U6G (LCD) is good.
The Samsung QN95B outperforms the Hisense U6G in a bright room mainly because it reaches higher brightness levels in both SDR and HDR content, ensuring images pop even in sunlit environments, and it better handles reflections, which is critical for maintaining clear picture quality in well-lit spaces. Although the Hisense U6G offers very good SDR brightness and good HDR brightness, it falls short in reflection handling, which may detract from the viewing experience in bright rooms, despite its respectable contrast and color performance.

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers Samsung QN95B (LCD) to be very good for movies & TV, while the Hisense U6G (LCD) is good.
The Hisense U6G excels in black uniformity which is key for watching movies in dark rooms, making its picture appear more consistent during dark scenes, but its colors out of the box and gray uniformity are only fair, potentially leading to less natural color representation and uneven shades of gray. The Samsung QN95B, on the other hand, not only provides excellent reflection handling for well-lit rooms but also offers better color accuracy and gray uniformity out of the box, which translates to vibrant, consistent colors and shades across various content, although its black uniformity is slightly lower in comparison.
