Our Verdict
LG UM7300
Hisense H8F
The LG UM7300 and the Hisense H8F use different panel types, each with their strengths and weaknesses. The H8F is better for watching movies or playing games in a dark room, but has worse motion handling. The LG looks better in a bright room, especially if you have a wide seating area, so it's a better choice for use as a PC monitor or for watching sports.
