Our Verdict
TCL S4/S450G
Hisense A7N
The Hisense A7N is better than the TCL S4/S450G. The TCL has one noticeable edge over the Hisense: a better native contrast ratio. While that does give it deeper blacks in dark scenes, it can't make up for the Hisense's edge in HDR and SDR brightness, as well as its wider color gamut. This makes the Hisense's pop more in most content. Plus, the Hisense has a much faster response time, with a narrow VRR range, also making it the superior product for gamers.
