If your priority is better contrast and the possibility of using your TV as a monitor, the Hisense R6G could be a better option, though it won't perform as well in bright rooms and its overall picture quality and gaming experience are not ideal. On the other hand, the LG UP7000 offers better motion handling and lower input lag, making it more suitable for fast-paced content and gaming, despite its poorer contrast and black uniformity. Neither TV is particularly strong in bright environments or offers great picture quality, so if a bright room or superior picture is important for you, you might want to consider other options.
