Hisense QD5 65" 4K QLED Google TV vs Samsung DU6900 Crystal UHD 4K Smart TV

The Samsung DU6900 is the safer pick for most people: a 65-inch 4K set with an anti-glare screen, 178-degree viewing angle, PurColor, 4K upscaling and Object Tracking Sound Lite, backed by Samsung's Tizen platform and a long record of solid budget TVs. The Hisense QD5 is the one to consider if you want QLED color and Google TV, but its listed sizes stop at 55 inches, so a 65-inch QD5 is not confirmed. Both are 60 Hz LED-class sets, so neither is a big step up for fast gaming or sports. Owners of Samsung's entry Crystal sets praise the picture for the money and complain about the two HDMI ports; QLED sets like the QD5 generally show richer color than plain LED.

• Choose the Hisense QD5 if you want QLED color and the Google TV interface with Google Assistant, Alexa and Siri support, and a 55-inch or smaller screen fits your room.
• Choose the Samsung DU6900 if you want a confirmed 65-inch 4K TV with an anti-glare screen, wide viewing angles and the Tizen app platform.
