Our Verdict
Hisense H8F
Samsung TU8000
The Hisense H8F and the Samsung TU8000 are both decent TVs that excel in different areas. The Hisense is significantly better for watching movies thanks to its local dimming feature, much wider color gamut, more accurate colors, brighter screen, and better reflection handling. On the other hand, the Samsung has a much better response time, making it the better option if you watch a lot of sports or play a lot of video games.
