Our Verdict

Hisense U7N

Samsung Q60D

The Hisense U7N is much better than the Samsung Q60D. The Hisense pairs much better with modern gaming consoles or PCs thanks to its HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, up to 4k @ 144Hz, and VRR support. The Hisense also has a faster response time for less blur behind quick motion, and its local dimming feature gives it significantly better contrast for deeper blacks that stay deep when bright highlights are also on the screen. Colors look more vibrant, lifelike, and brighter in HDR content on the Hisense thanks to its wider color gamut and better color volume, and its much higher HDR peak brightness means highlights in HDR content really stand out. Finally, the Hisense is brighter in SDR and has better reflection handling, so it's a lot more suitable for use in a bright room.
