The Amazon Omni Series has a slightly higher price and offers better overall picture quality, which makes it suitable for brighter rooms and for viewing movies and news content. It has better dark room performance, reflecting its superior contrast and black uniformity compared to the Hisense A6H.
The Hisense A6H, on the other hand, is priced more affordably and has a better gaming experience due to a faster response time and lower input lag. Additionally, it makes a better computer monitor if that's a consideration. However, its performance in bright rooms and for watching movies is less impressive than the Amazon Omni Series.
Consider your primary usage: the Amazon Omni Series for general and brighter room viewing, and the Hisense A6H for gaming and computer monitor use. Give Feedback

The Amazon Omni Series (LCD) and Hisense A6H (LCD) are both poor for movies & TV, though the Amazon Omni Series (LCD) is somewhat better.
The Amazon Omni Series struggles with displaying movies and cinematic TV primarily due to its lack of local dimming and only fair black uniformity, which impacts its ability to produce true blacks and hamper contrast, vital for a good movie experience. Similarly, the Hisense A6H, besides lacking local dimming, also suffers from poor contrast and black uniformity, leading to less immersive dark scenes and diluted black levels, which are important for a cinematic feel.
