For a budget-friendly option, the Hisense U6H is typically much less expensive than the LG NANO90 and offers better performance for movies and series, as well as for viewing news, talk shows, and reality TV. It has higher scores in dark room viewing, making it a good choice if you mainly watch TV in low-light conditions.
On the other hand, the LG NANO90 is priced midrange and is geared more towards gaming, with a higher gaming score and better motion processing. Its 120Hz screen can be beneficial if you watch a lot of sports or use the TV for gaming, as it can provide smoother motion.

The LG NANO90 (LCD) and Hisense U6H (LCD) are both only fair for sports, though the LG NANO90 (LCD) is somewhat better.
The Hisense U6H falls short in response time, which is crucial for capturing fast action in sports; it also lacks motion processing capabilities that help make fast movements look smooth, contributing to its fair performance in sports viewing. Meanwhile, the LG NANO90 offers better response time and motion processing, which benefits sports fans, but its lesser gray uniformity and narrower viewing angles compared to the U6H might limit the viewing experience from off-center seats and with uniform colors like a football field.

"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. (...)"
"Here we have HDR pictures that look bright, but also manage to typically hit decently deep black levels.WebOS continues, though, to be one of the easiest to use. Connections are strong for a mid-range TV. Native 4K pictures look crisp and detailed."
