The Hisense U6G (LCD) is very good for news, talk, & other TV, while the Vizio V-Series (LCD) is only fair.
The Hisense U6G provides a better experience for watching news and TV programs due to its superior upscaling of lower resolution content and higher SDR brightness, ensuring clearer and more vibrant images even in well-lit rooms. Conversely, the Vizio V-Series has lower effectiveness in upscaling and less SDR brightness capability, which may result in less detailed images and lower performance in bright conditions.

The Hisense U6G (LCD) and Vizio V-Series (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
For watching sports, the Hisense U6G provides a good response time, making it suitable for fast-moving scenes, but it might struggle with reflections in bright rooms. The Vizio V-Series, on the other hand, is weaker in response time which can lead to motion blur during fast sports action and also has limitations with reflections, but both TVs may present challenges when viewed from wide angles.

Geoffrey Morrison | June 2021
"Vizio's cheapest 4K HDR TV packs in a lot for a low price. The voice control via the remote works well, about as well as Roku's version on devices that have it. So if you know your way around a TV menu, or want to be able to dial in the picture even on an inexpensive TV, the Vizio is the better choice"

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.
