Is the Samsung R85H worth $1,300 more than the Hisense U6?

For most rooms, no. The Hisense U6 gives you Mini-LED contrast, Dolby Vision and 144Hz for $399.99 at Best Buy as of November 5, 2026. The Samsung's Micro RGB panel and size range matter if you want a 75-inch or larger set or need Google Assistant.

Which has better contrast?

The Samsung's Micro RGB backlight has finer control than the Hisense's Mini-LED zones, so it should show less blooming around bright objects. The Hisense still delivers strong contrast for its price and adds Dolby Vision, which the Samsung does not list.

Which is better for a bright room?

The Hisense U6 has a glare-free panel, which helps in rooms with windows or lamps. The Samsung does not list anti-glare, so reflections are more likely on its glossy finish.

Which is better for gaming?

Both run at 144Hz, so motion is comparable. The Hisense adds Dolby Vision for supported consoles and streaming, while the Samsung offers both Google Assistant and Alexa control.

Does the Samsung come in a 65-inch size?

Yes, the R85H comes in 55, 65, 75, 85 and 100 inches. The Hisense U6 is sold only in 65 inches.

Is the Samsung price likely to drop?

Its lowest daily price since October 28, 2026 was $899.00 on November 4, far below the current $1,697.99. If you want the Samsung, wait for a sale closer to that low.
