The Samsung S95C (OLED) is excellent for movies & TV, while the Hisense U6H (LCD) is good.
The Samsung S95C OLED TV excels for movies and cinematic TV due to its perfect black uniformity, remarkable contrast, and exceptional viewing angles which translate to visually striking scenes and broad seating arrangements without image degradation. In comparison, the Hisense U6H LCD TV, while good for movies and cinematic content, has lower contrast, less effective local dimming, and narrower viewing angles, meaning it may not represent dark scenes as well, especially when viewed from an angle.

The Samsung S95C (OLED) is very good for sports, while the Hisense U6H (LCD) is only fair.
The Samsung S95C OLED has a significantly better response time and handles reflections exceptionally well, important for fast-paced sports content and bright rooms, respectively, while the Hisense U6H LCD scores lower in these areas; additionally, the OLED's wide viewing angles and superior motion processing offer a more consistent and smoother viewing experience, especially in a group setting, in contrast to the more limited LCD viewing angles and fair motion handling. Gray uniformity, which is somewhat important for watching sports, is also better on the Samsung OLED, which means less variation in the display of large, uniform fields of color, such as a football field..
