Our Verdict
Hisense H8F
Toshiba Fire TV 2019
The Hisense H8F is a significantly better TV than the Toshiba Fire TV 2019. The H8F has better contrast, a full array local dimming feature, and significantly better black uniformity. The H8F also has an optional black frame insertion feature, much lower input lag, and it can remove 24p judder from 24p sources. On the other hand, the Toshiba has a faster response time.
