Short answer: the Hisense A620. It ranks #21 of 27 all-in-one soundbars by sound quality, rated 3.1/5, at $119.99. The Sony HT-S100F ranks #26, rated 2.9/5, at $98, $21.99 cheaper, not enough of a saving to outweigh the sound-quality gap.
What the Hisense A620 does well: This is a one piece bar for small TV setups where there is no room for a subwoofer. It keeps a wired aux input, which the Sony HT-S100F lacks. The catch: Overall sound quality sits well behind the best budget bar and sub systems at the same price.
What the Sony HT-S100F does well: The HT-S100F is a simple, slim bar that makes speech easier to follow than most flat TV speakers, and its Voice mode lifts dialogue further for late night news or talk shows. The catch: Bass is thin and rolls off early, so action movies lack weight and there is no way to add a subwoofer.
Buy the Hisense A620. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the $21.99 saving on the Sony HT-S100F is not enough to make up the difference.
