Our Verdict

Hisense U6H

Samsung CU7000/CU7000D

The Hisense U6H is better than the Samsung CU7000/CU7000D. It has a better contrast ratio, further enhanced by its local dimming feature. It also gets brighter than the Samsung in both SDR and HDR, has a wider color gamut and color volume, and is significantly more color accurate. This makes it the better TV for watching movies or for playing cinematic games. The Samsung does have a faster response time, making it better suited for watching sports and playing action games, although the Hisense has VRR support for gaming.
