The Hisense U6H is a budget-friendly LCD option that generally costs much less than the Sony A90J. It offers good overall picture quality and is suitable for a variety of content, including movies and animation. However, it may not perform as well in bright rooms or for sports content as some other TVs. On the other hand, the Sony A90J is a high-end OLED TV that typically costs significantly more but provides excellent picture quality, especially for gaming and sports. It has a wider viewing angle and better performance in darker rooms compared to the Hisense U6H. The Sony A90J also boasts better sound quality with great built-in speakers and a higher refresh rate. If you're looking for an affordable TV that delivers decent performance across different types of content, the Hisense U6H is a strong choice. But if you're willing to invest more for superior picture quality, particularly for sports and gaming, and a better audio experience, the Sony A90J would be a superior option. Give Feedback

The Sony A90J (OLED) is excellent for sports, while the Hisense U6H (LCD) is only fair.
The Sony A90J (OLED) is excellent for watching sports because it has outstanding motion processing and response time, ensuring that fast-moving scenes are displayed smoothly, and it handles reflections very well, maintaining picture quality in bright rooms. However, the Hisense U6H (LCD) is only considered fair for sports viewing due to poorer motion processing and response time, which can result in more motion blur during fast-paced action, and it struggles more with reflections and viewing angles, which could affect viewing experiences in brighter rooms and when watching from the side.

Tom's guide
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. (...)"

"In every meaningful department – motion control, contrast, edge definition, detail levels, you name it the A90J puts in a memorably accomplished shift. In fact, the Sony proves outstanding at handling on-screen motion of any and every kind. By the standards of television audio systems, the A90J is a notably punchy and genuinely dynamic performer."
