Our Verdict
Hisense H9F
Samsung Q70/Q70T QLED
The Hisense H9F is better overall than the Samsung Q70/Q70T QLED. The Hisense can deliver a far better HDR experience due to its impressive peak brightness and wide color gamut. Also, the Hisense has a faster response time and much better reflection handling, but the Samsung has better out-of-the-box color accuracy and it supports FreeSync to reduce screen tearing when gaming.
