With an HDR signal, peak brightness jumps to 622 nits for a full-screen white field and 1,056 nits for an 18% white field, which, combined with an 0. The depth and solidity to the image is enhanced by the Dolby Vision Dark picture mode, which gives added subtlety to Dolby Vision content. Due to its local dimming feature and its significantly better contrast, blacks are much deeper on the U7H, so it performs better in a dark room. The Hisense U7 supports most common resolutions, and it displays chroma 4:4:4, which is essential for clear text from a PC. Finally, the U7H supports more advanced gaming features and delivers a better gaming experience, as it has a 120Hz panel and HDMI 2.

inputs with FreeSync Premium, 4K 120Hz VRR (Variable Refresh Rate), ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode) and eARC compatibility and all this is controlled via the Game Mode Pro feature.As such, the sound is a little bit light with a compressed feel, but for watching normal TV it is serviceable. Contrasts, for example, are very impressive thanks to the screen’s ability to generate quite deep and very varied black tones - along with the control of backlighting it demonstrates and the clean, detailed white tones it creates, there’s quite a distance between black and white. The U7H gets brighter in HDR and SDR, so highlights pop more with HDR content and the TV overcomes glare better with SDR content in a bright room.

Perhaps because it also has Mini LED backlighting technology on board, in addition to all those ‘QLED’ and ‘ULED’ features. The 100% saturation pints are still too wide, but as we mentioned earlier, this is not a big issue as 100% saturation is rarely used within an image. Like most modern remotes, it lacks a Numpad, and there are quick-access buttons to a few popular streaming services. It also makes the Samsung model better for watching sports, while the Hisense has the edge as a home entertainment TV, especially as it supports DTS audio formats.It’s also the better option for watching content in dark rooms because of its better contrast, a local dimming feature, and better black uniformity.

The TCL also has a much faster response time, making it a better choice for gamers, as there's less blur behind fast-moving objects. It also has great color volume and impressive color gamut, with nearly full coverage of the DCI-P3 color space, so games are vibrant and visually impressive.Like the world's greatest critic, your TV will analyse the composition of each frame and adjust your brightness, resolution, colour settings, and more so that each scene looks perfect - and you don't have to do anything but sit back, relax, and let your smart TV take care of everything. The U7H is also better for watching content in HDR, as it has better color volume and gets much brighter in HDR, so highlights pop much more than on the TCL. The U7H gets much brighter in HDR and SDR, so highlights pop more with HDR content and the TV fights glare better with SDR content in a bright room. With local dimming disabled, there's a bit of backlight bleed, and the entire screen appears a bit cloudy, but it's not too distracting. The system also manages to aggregate content from each provider to offer you easy viewing choices and the system supports 4K UHD Dolby Vision on those apps that feature them.
