It also offers better movie and series watching experiences. Conversely, the Insignia F30 is less expensive but has lower picture quality and lacks support for premium HDR formats. It could still be suitable for casual viewing or if budget constraints are a significant factor in your decision. Give Feedback

The Hisense U6H (LCD) is good for movies & TV, while the Insignia F30 (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense U6H is good for watching movies and cinematic TV due to its high contrast, effective local dimming, and better black uniformity, which are imperative for deep blacks and detailed dark scenes, while the Insignia F30's poor contrast and local dimming, alongside inferior black uniformity, significantly hinder its performance in a similar setting.

The Hisense U6H (LCD) is only fair for gaming, while the Insignia F30 (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense U6H provides a better gaming experience than the Insignia F30 because it has a superior response time and input lag, both crucial for smooth and responsive gameplay. The Insignia F30 falls short in these areas, leading to a less optimal gaming performance.

The Hisense U6H (LCD) is very good for news, talk, & other TV, while the Insignia F30 (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense U6H excels in upscaling lower resolution content and delivering vibrant colors straight out of the box, making it very suitable for watching news and talk shows. In contrast, the Insignia F30 performs poorly in both upscaling and color reproduction out of the box, which affects the viewing experience for similar content.

The Hisense U6H (LCD) is good for bright room, while the Insignia F30 (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense U6H delivers good SDR brightness and fair HDR brightness, better equipping it to overcome ambient light in bright rooms, while the Insignia F30 falls short with poor performance in both SDR and HDR brightness, making it less suitable for such environments. Both TVs have fair handling of reflections; however, the superior brightness of the Hisense U6H couples with this to maintain picture clarity in well-lit conditions better than the Insignia F30.

The Insignia F30 (LCD) and Hisense U6H (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Hisense U6H is better for watching sports in rooms with some light due to its fair handling of reflections and the Insignia F30 also has fair reflection handling, so it performs similarly in that respect. However, the Hisense U6H has poor response time which could lead to motion blur during fast sports scenes, whereas the Insignia F30, despite its poor motion processing, has better response time which may offer a slight advantage in fast-moving sports but still might not be the best for motion clarity.

Matthew Murray | March 2023
"A budget TV that exceeds expectations. (...) For a TV that costs as little as this one does, its brightness and color are above-average (...) The U6H may not get quite as bright as its splashier siblings, but for its class, it fares pretty well. (...) As far as input lag, the U6H is an impressive performer. (...) Costing less than most of its direct competitors, and matching or bettering them in several key areas, it’s an irresistible value proposition. (...)"

"Still one of the best bargain TVs. The best feature remains its quick and responsive implementation of Fire TV OS and all the goodies that come with it. Having Alexa inside the Insignia 4K Ultra HD Fire TV Edition brings a lot of value, from voice control of TV functions to access to your smart home devices."
