Our Verdict

Samsung S90C OLED

Hisense U8/U8K

The Samsung S90C OLED is better than the Hisense U8/U8K. The Hisense is slightly better for bright rooms due to it being the brightest TV of the two, especially when watching HDR content. The Hisense is also great for movie purists due to its Dolby Vision support and advanced DTS audio passthrough. Still, the Samsung is a bright TV with tremendous reflection handling, so it's no slouch in bright rooms, but it truly excels in dark rooms due to its nearly infinite contrast ratio. The Samsung also has a vastly wider viewing angle, making it better for wide seating arrangements. Plus, it's the far better gaming TV, with a faster response time and four 4k @ 144Hz HDMI ports, versus two on the Hisense.
