Our Verdict
Samsung Q7F 2025
Hisense U65QF
The Hisense U65QF is a lot better than the Samsung Q7F 2025. The Hisense displays significantly deeper blacks due to its effective local dimming, displays punchier colors, has better overall image processing, and is much brighter in HDR, giving it much better picture quality overall. The Hisense is also much brighter in SDR, so it overcomes more glare in a well-lit room. Finally, the Hisense is loaded with modern gaming features, so it's the much better TV for gamers.
