Our Verdict
Hisense A6/A65K
Hisense QD65NF
The Hisense A65K and the Hisense QD65NF are similar budget models. The QD6 delivers a slightly brighter image, but their overall picture quality is similar. The A65K has more extra features, though, with one additional HDMI port and VRR support, as well as a faster response time for gaming.
