Sony X690E 70" (KD70X690E) vs Hisense H9E Plus 65" (65H9E Plus)

While hooked-up with a current-generation gaming console, the Sony X690E offers a smooth and fluid gaming experience thanks to its excellent motion handling capabilities and low input lag.

The motion looks smooth and isn't blurry because of the TV's fast response time. It takes roughly 14 milliseconds for the TV's pixels to change their color which eliminates a lot of the unwanted motion blur effect.

The X690E offers exceptional responsiveness thanks to its low input lag. While in the 'Gaming' mode the TV's input lag drops to roughly 20 milliseconds, which means that you will not feel the delay between pressing a controller's button and seeing the actual thing happening on the screen.

The Sony X690E can upscale the low-resolution 480p/720p/1080p content quite well, without introducing any artifacts which makes it an excellent option for those who want to watch over-the-air broadcasts, old DVDs or Blu-rays.

The main interface of the Hisense H9E Plus is free of ads. Additionally, you have an option to opt-out of the suggested content.

The Hisense H9E Plus offers decent performance while dealing with the non-HDR content thanks to its good overall SDR picture quality. The TV reproduces beautiful images that feature relatively bright and accurate colors as well as some pretty deep blacks.

The H9E Plus offers a relatively wide range of vivid and accurate colors. It can reproduce a wide variety of colors thanks to its wide color gamut that measures at around 86% of the DCI-P3 - only the best TVs in this price range can perform on par with the H9E Plus. In the SDR mode, the colors look genuinely bright thanks to the TV's sustained brightness that peaks at around 300 nits.

Regarding its dark scene performance, the H9E Plus performs on par with the best TVs in its price bracket thanks to its ability to reproduce uniform and inky blacks. The dark areas look genuinely dark without losing the detail thanks to the TV's high native contrast ratio that measures at 6000:1. Also, blacks don't look washed out thanks to the TV's high black uniformity that measures at around 1.2 %.
