If you're on a tight budget, the Samsung CU7000 may be the more economically prudent choice as it's often significantly less expensive than the Hisense R6G. Keep in mind, though, the Hisense R6G generally performs better in dark rooms and has better color out of the box, meaning you might find it delivers a more satisfying experience when viewing movies or gaming in lower light conditions. However, both TVs struggle in bright rooms, so if your viewing area is well-lit, neither may be ideal. For gaming and using as a monitor, the Hisense has a slightly better response time but remember, its gaming experience on the whole has been noted as poor. If sound is crucial for you, be aware that neither TV is recognized for having great speakers, so you may want to consider a separate sound system or soundbar with either model. Both support HDR, but only the Hisense supports Dolby Vision, which could enhance your viewing experience for certain content. If accessibility features like voice commands are important, you'll find them in both models. Give Feedback
