Our Verdict
TCL S551G
Hisense QD65NF
These two TVs are closely matched, although the TCL S551G is just a tad better than the Hisense QD65NF, especially for gamers. The Hisense is a bit brighter in HDR, has slightly deeper contrast, and is a bit more colorful. The TCL has better image processing, a wider viewing angle, and a faster response time. The biggest difference, however, is in their gaming features: the TCL can game at 1440p/1080 @ 120Hz alongside 4k @ 60Hz, with full VRR support, while the Hisense is limited to 4k @ 60Hz, and no VRR. Ultimately, if you're a gamer, go for the TCL. If you're not a gamer, buy the cheapest model you can find.
