When choosing between the Hisense U6G and Hisense U7K, consider that the U6G is less expensive and offers a fair performance for most uses, making it a good budget-friendly option. However, if you prefer a more enhanced viewing experience, especially for gaming or watching movies, the U7K, with a higher refresh rate and miniLED technology, may be worth the extra cost, though be aware it may not perform much better in well-lit rooms. Both models are similar in their handling of general TV and news content, but the U7K carries the advantage in connectivity and audio features, including voice commands. Give Feedback

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers Hisense U7K (LCD) to be very good for movies & TV, while the Hisense U6G (LCD) is good.
The Hisense U6G delivers a good movie and TV experience due to its strong contrast, effective local dimming, and excellent black uniformity, enhancing dark scene portrayal. The Hisense U7K further improves upon this with slightly higher contrast, superior local dimming performance, and marginally better black uniformity, offering very good performance for movies and cinematic content, even though its viewing angles and out-of-the-box colors are comparable to the U6G.

The Hisense U7K (LCD) and Hisense U6G (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Hisense U6G and U7K both have fair response times, which is crucial for sports, as it minimizes motion blur, but the U6G lacks a robust motion processing feature which is a bit better in the U7K; however, both handle reflections only moderately well, meaning glare in bright rooms can be a problem. While both models also have fairly narrow viewing angles that may result in color and contrast shifts when viewed from the side, they exhibit similar gray uniformity, which is somewhat important for displaying an even field, such as a football pitch, without distracting areas of uneven color or brightness.
