The Hisense U6H also performs slightly better in both dark and bright rooms which means it's more versatile depending on the lighting conditions of your viewing space. In addition, it has a slightly better gaming experience and sound quality, as well as a higher score for movies and series watching.
On the other hand, the Vizio V-Series '22 is a bit more expensive but offers slightly better performance when watching sports and animation. However, it falls behind the Hisense U6H in dark room performance and overall picture quality. The Vizio V-Series also has fewer HDMI ports, which could limit your connectivity options.

The Hisense U6H offers superior upscaling for lower-resolution content and better SDR brightness, contributing to its favorable viewing experience for news and TV programs.

The Hisense U6H (LCD) is good for bright room, while the Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense U6H outperforms the Vizio V-Series '22 in a bright room because it has higher scores for SDR and HDR brightness, making it better at combating glare from ambient light. Additionally, both TVs have comparable reflections handling, but the superior brightness of the Hisense helps maintain picture quality in well-lit environments.
The Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) and Hisense U6H (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Hisense U6H has a slower response time, which can result in more motion blur during fast sports scenes compared to the Vizio V-Series '22, which has a fair response time and might handle motion slightly better. Both TVs have fair performance for reflections and similar viewing angles, making neither ideal in rooms with many light sources or wide seating, but the Vizio V-Series '22 has a lower gray uniformity score, potentially displaying uneven shades during sports with uniform colors like a football field.
