If you often watch movies in a dark room, the Hisense U6G is a better choice due to its superior contrast and black uniformity, providing deeper blacks and a more immersive experience. For those who prioritize gaming features, the Hisense U6G also offers a slightly lower input lag, which may improve your gaming experience. On the other hand, if you're looking for a TV that's better suited for watching TV shows or news in a bright room, the Vizio MQ6 '23 stands out for its better reflection handling, which minimizes glare. It's also worth considering if cost is a major factor, as it is significantly less expensive than the Hisense. Both TVs are LCD with 60Hz refresh rates and similar overall motion handling, so neither will have a distinct advantage for watching sports. Give Feedback

The Hisense U6G (LCD) is very good for cartoons & animation, while the Vizio MQ6 '23 (LCD) is good.
The Hisense U6G excels in cartoons and animation due to its strong performance in color accuracy out of the box and extensive color gamut, ensuring vivid and true-to-life hues. In contrast, the Vizio MQ6 '23 also provides a good experience for such content with its decent color accuracy from the start and respectable color gamut, but it doesn't quite match the performance of the Hisense in these areas.

The Hisense U6G (LCD) is very good for news, talk, & other TV, while the Vizio MQ6 '23 (LCD) is good.
The Hisense U6G delivers very good SDR brightness and fair colors straight out of the box, making it very good for watching news and TV programs in most lighting conditions with minimal adjustments required. On the other hand, the Vizio MQ6 '23 offers good SDR brightness and better colors out of the box, which is good for viewing under similar conditions but may require more fine-tuning for optimal picture quality.

The Hisense U6G (LCD) is good for bright room, while the Vizio MQ6 '23 (LCD) is only fair.
The Hisense U6G is better for viewing in a bright room because it has a higher score for SDR and HDR brightness, indicating a brighter display which can combat glare, although it might reflect more light as the reflections handling is rated fair. On the other hand, the Vizio MQ6 '23, with a fair rating for reflections handling as well, provides a less bright screen in both SDR and HDR, suitable for moderately lit or darker rooms but may struggle in very bright spaces.
The Hisense U6G (LCD) and Vizio MQ6 '23 (LCD) both have good picture quality.

The Hisense U6G (LCD) and Vizio MQ6 '23 (LCD) are both good for movies & TV.
The Hisense U6G excels in movie and cinematic TV viewing with a higher contrast ratio and black uniformity which are very important for deep blacks and dark room performance, while also having good color volume that ensures rich and vibrant colors. The Vizio MQ6 '23, while offering good colors out of the box and color volume, falls short in black uniformity and contrast compared to the Hisense U6G, which can slightly affect its ability to display deep blacks as effectively.

The Vizio MQ6 '23 (LCD) and Hisense U6G (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
For watching sports, the Hisense U6G has good response time but only fair motion processing and reflections handling, while the Vizio MQ6 '23 has just fair response time and suffers similarly with motion processing and reflections handling. Both TVs have challenges with viewing angles which could affect the experience when watching with a group, and the Vizio displays slightly lower gray uniformity which is less ideal for sports with large uniform colors like fields or ice rinks.

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.
