If you're looking for an affordable option and don't mind a smaller screen and lower picture quality, the Samsung N5300 would save you money. It's a basic TV with limited features that might work for casual viewing in smaller rooms. However, if you're after a more immersive experience, especially for movies, sports, or gaming, and prefer a large, 85-inch display with top-notch picture quality and the latest technology, the Hisense UX would be a better choice. The Hisense UX excels in bright rooms and offers better sound as well. Keep in mind that it comes with a higher price tag due to its advanced features. Give Feedback

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.
