If you mainly watch movies and series in the evening or in a dark room, the Vizio P-Series offers better performance; it has a better contrast and local dimming which enhances dark scene detailing. However, if you are on a tighter budget and want a good all-around TV, the Hisense U6K is less expensive and still provides satisfactory performance for a variety of content. For gaming, the Vizio P-Series has an advantage with its superior gaming performance. On the other hand, for regular TV shows, news, and animation, both sets are quite comparable, with the Hisense slightly better for news and talk shows, and the Vizio excelling in animation. In bright rooms, the Vizio P-Series is superior, due to a higher bright room performance score, which means it handles reflections and maintains picture quality better than the Hisense in well-lit conditions. Both TVs support common HDR formats, but neither has standout audio quality. You might consider adding a soundbar with either choice. In summary, the Vizio P-Series is generally the better performer, particularly for gaming and bright room viewing, but comes at a higher price. The Hisense U6K is more budget-friendly and still offers decent performance across different types of content. Give Feedback

Tom's guide

Brian Westover | October 2021
"We were even more pleased to see that performance had improved across the board, with the display offering better color, brightness, and shorter lag times than the already excellent Roku model. Color accuracy was great right out of the box. The TCL 5-Series Google TV becomes a great option for demanding gamers."

About Hisense

Hisense, a Chinese TV manufacturer, entered the US market in approximately 2011 and has since acquired TV divisions from various companies such as Toshiba, Sharp, Hitachi, and NEC. Currently ranking as the fourth largest vendor in terms of sales volume, Hisense aims to capture a wide range of TV budget segments. They offer exceptional value with TVs that often outperform their competitors at similar price points, making them a compelling choice for consumers. In the US, they use Google TV as their smart TV software which provides the largest app selection and a very modern user interface, however it is not as user friendly as the software from other vendors.

About Vizio

Vizio is an American company. While they initially gained recognition for offering budget-friendly TVs, they have successfully expanded their product lineup to include high-end options as well. They manufacture TVs primarily in Mexico, China, and Vietnam. Similar to many Korean TV brands, Vizio developed its own smart TV software called SmartCast. In the past, SmartCast was not the best smart TV software, but it has evolved so that it is now good for using your TV and connecting to streaming services.
