Why this matters

Picture quality: Class-leading WOLED panels vs Aggressive pricing for the tech.

Weaknesses to know: LG — OLEDs still trail Samsung/Sony peak brightness; Motion handling can feel aggressive out of the box. Hisense — Software is average; QA can be inconsistent; Warranty terms vary by market.

Bottom line: pick LG if OLED matters most or if Feature-complete gaming (4× HDMI 2.1) matters. Pick Hisense if Mini LED matters most or if Genuine 1,500+ nit Mini LED matters.
