Choose the LG G1 if you prioritize superior picture quality, especially in dark rooms, and you're an avid movie watcher or gamer. It has excellent contrast, perfect blacks, and wide viewing angles, making it ideal for dim environments and a variety of content. However, it's not the best for bright rooms and has a higher price tag. On the other hand, the Hisense UX is a better fit for well-lit spaces due to its exceptional brightness and performs adequately across various content types. It's also larger at 85 inches and supports voice commands. But it falls short in dark room performance and has narrower viewing angles compared to the LG. Consider your room's lighting and your content preferences to make the best choice. Give Feedback

The LG G1 (OLED) is excellent for movies & TV, while the Hisense UX (LCD) is very good.
The Hisense UX, being an LCD TV, has commendable contrast and local dimming features, which enhance movie and cinematic TV watching, making dark scenes look more profound; however, the LG G1's OLED technology ensures superior black uniformity and excellent contrast ratios, providing a more immersive viewing experience for similar content with deeper blacks and vibrant colors. While both perform well with colors out of the box and have a good color volume, the LG G1 also offers better viewing angles and gray uniformity which may be especially noticeable in wide-seating arrangements or when watching content with large areas of similar color.

The LG G1 (OLED) is very good for sports, while the Hisense UX (LCD) is only fair.
The LG G1 excels in sports viewing due to its superior motion processing and exceptional response time, which minimize blur in fast-moving scenes and provide clearer viewing angles, while the Hisense UX, being an LCD TV, falls short in these areas, leading to a less smooth sports-watching experience. Additionally, the LG G1 handles reflections better, making it more suitable for bright rooms, and its gray uniformity is somewhat better, which is noticeable when watching sports with uniform backgrounds like a soccer field.

The Hisense UX (LCD) is best in class for bright room, while the LG G1 (OLED) is good.
The Hisense UX, being an LCD TV, scores higher in SDR and HDR brightness which is crucial for visibility in bright rooms, and its reflection handling is rated very good, making it suitable for well-lit environments. The LG G1, while being an OLED with exceptional contrast and excellent reflection handling, does not match the brightness levels of the Hisense and therefore is better suited for moderately bright rooms. Contrast, color volume, and color gamut are influential but secondary to the brightness and reflections when considering bright room performance.

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 LG
LG, a prominent TV brand from Korea, has played a significant role in popularizing OLED TVs. OLED technology is hailed as the future of TV technology. Their TVs employ WebOS, a proprietary smart TV software that not only offers seamless functionality but also includes gaming-specific features, earning praise from players worldwide. Often regarded as the gateway to unparalleled viewing experiences, LG's mid-range OLEDs come highly recommended, making them a worthwhile investment for those willing to stretch their budget for superior quality.
