Which is better for gaming?

The Hisense. It lists VRR and ALLM, which reduce tearing and input lag. The FPD lists MEMC motion smoothing but no VRR or ALLM.

Which has the better smart TV system?

The FPD runs Google TV with Google Assistant built in, which most shoppers find easier and better stocked with apps. The Hisense uses VIDAA OS and only works with Google Assistant rather than running it natively.

Is Dolby Vision worth choosing the Hisense for?

Yes if you watch Dolby Vision movies and shows on Netflix or Disney+. The FPD handles HDR10 only, so Dolby Vision content falls back to standard HDR.

How many devices can I plug in?

The Hisense has three HDMI ports and the FPD has two. If you have a console, soundbar and streaming stick, the Hisense avoids a switch.

The FPD states 260 nits. Hisense does not publish a figure for the 43A6GV, so neither is a bright-room set; both suit dim to moderate lighting.

Is the Hisense worth the extra?

At its $199.99 low on November 1, 2026, yes for gamers and Dolby Vision viewers. Check the FPD's current store price first, since no price was given here.
