The A6G uses the latest version of Hisense’s own Vidaa smart platform, which is primarily designed to host streaming services.

Improved using around bar partly because of being hard of hearing and needed forward facing speakers. The A6H also supports variable refresh rate technology, which helps improve the overall gaming experience by reducing visible tearing in some games. It displays a good amount of colors in the commonly-used DCI-P3 color space with good tone mapping, meaning most colors appear as they should. The Samsung is a better choice for a dark room, as its VA panel has better contrast and better black uniformity.

The edges of the screen are noticeably darker than the rest, which can be distracting if you want to use it as a PC monitor. It doesn't have advanced gaming features, but its input lag is low, so the overall gaming experience isn't bad.

The machine itself works very well, really efficient and (now) is very quiet throughout all programmes. You do get smarts with the latest VIDAA OS with support for Freeview Play, while there’s digital assistants in Alexa and Google.

Suppose you could find some channels you don't get on Freeview or, for that matter, UK terrestrial full stop. It’s compatible with HLG, HDR10+ and Dolby Vision HDR standards - which is not something most far pricier 55in TVs can boast - and it has plenty of connectivity.
