Our Verdict

Samsung QN90A QLED

TCL 6 Series/R648 2021 8k QLED

The Samsung QN90A QLED is better overall than the TCL 6 Series/R648 2021 8k QLED. They both have Mini LED backlighting, and the Samsung gets much brighter, especially in HDR, and it has a better local dimming feature because there's less blooming. the Samsung has better viewing angles because of the 'Ultra Viewing Angle' technology, so it's a better choice for watching shows or sports in a wide seating area, and it has better reflection handling. The TCL is an 8k TV, so it supports higher-resolution signals than the Hisense, but the Hisense also displays native 4k content better because it doesn't have to upscale it.
