Our Verdict
Hisense QD7N
TCL Q77K
The Hisense QD7N and the TCL Q77K are very similar overall, each trading blows in a few ways. The TCL has much better contrast, making it the better of the two for a darker room, whereas the Hisense is a bit brighter, making it the better choice for a brighter room. Other than that, these two TVs offer nearly identical performance and have very similar features.
