Our Verdict

Hisense C2 Ultra

Valerion VisionMaster Max

The Hisense C2 Ultra and Valerion VisionMaster Max are very closely matched; the Valerion edges the Hisense by a small margin, but also costs much more. The biggest difference between the two is contrast: the Hisense is great there, but the Valerion is best in class.
