Consider the Samsung QN90A if you're looking for a more budget-friendly option that still offers excellent overall picture quality, especially in bright rooms, and is great for gaming and watching movies or sports. It has a smaller screen size at 65 inches compared to the Hisense UX's 85 inches, which might be preferable if you have limited space. However, the Hisense UX boasts a larger screen and superior HDR performance, making it ideal for an immersive viewing experience in a home theater setup, though it may not perform as well in bright environments and is pricier. The UX also has better sound quality and more advanced smart features, including voice commands, if those are important to you. Give Feedback

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers Samsung QN90A (LCD) to be good for sports, while the Hisense UX (LCD) is only fair.
The Samsung QN90A is better suited for sports due to its superior motion processing, which reduces motion blur and makes fast-moving content clearer, and because it has a higher response time speed, ensuring smoother transitions between frames. The Hisense UX, while fair for sports, falls short in these areas and may display more motion blur and less fluid motion in comparison, although its very good reflection handling is advantageous in bright rooms.
