The Amazon Omni Series might be the way to go if good contrast, decent SDR brightness, and having a multitude of HDMI ports are essential for your needs; however, it doesn't excel in bright room performance, which could be a drawback if you plan to watch in well-lit environments. On the other hand, the Hisense R6G, while less expensive, offers good colors right out of the box and better upscaling, making it a more suitable choice for a variety of content, including cartoons and animation, but it has fewer HDMI ports and might not be as bright as the Omni Series. If you're a fan of gaming or watch in darker rooms often, neither of these options stands out. Give Feedback
