Which is the better 55 inch TV - Hisense U68H or LG UQ7590? - RedFlagDeals.com Forums (2024)

Both of these models seem to be on sale. While the hisense has reviews online, I can not find much information about the LG online, although it looked decent in store. Hisense was not available in store.

As close as it gets ... the UQ8000 is there ... I'm assuming the 7590 was designed similar to the UQ8000 but it was specifically for Costco

All manufacturers do that ... slightly different model number for specific retailers.

The LG UQXXXX models are the entry level models for LG and marketed as LED TVs so it is more than likely also uses IPS panels since "The LG UQ8000 is an entry-level TV in LG's 2022 lineup. It sits between the LG UQ9000 and the LG UQ75," as per rtings review of the UQ80. Both the UQ8000 and UQ9000 use IPS panels. IPS panels are vastly inferior to VA panels in terms of colours and blackness due to their low contrast ratios . The only thing that an IPS is better at than VA panels is the viewing angle as IPS panels have a wider viewing angle than VA panels.

Unless you have a big issue with viewing angles I would go with VA panels over IPS panels.

Hisense ULED TV uses VA panels so its visual display will be much superior to a LG LED TV.

I agree...they rather use the sh*tty IPS panes over VA panels on their budget models, so that OLED models difference will pop when you compare them side by side.

You might not notice that much of a difference if you had a VA panel and you compared it to an OLED model and less willing to fork over that much more money for an OLED to justify that slight improvement.

Different needs between computer gamers and TV watchers.

IPS monitors beat VA monitors in faster response time and refresh rates, which are important for gamers. (Not all that important for TV watchers.)

VA panels beat IPS panels in contrast ratio (measure of how black it gets). IPS only gets about 1,000:1 whereas VA gets 2,000 to 5,000, so IPS blacks look grayish rather than black. (More important for TV watchers looking for the best picture)

It is hard to find a TV with an IPS panel today. Everyone has switched to VA

Sony use to only use IPS and they are now all VA
