Our Verdict

Hisense U7N [U7, U75N]

TCL QM7K

The TCL QM7K is mostly better than the Hisense U7N. While the Hisense is brighter overall, the TCL's black levels are much better due to its vastly superior contrast ratio, giving it the more impactful image overall. Gamers will also appreciate the QM7K's 1080p @ 288Hz support, alongside noticeably faster pixel transitions than the Hisense.
