If you're primarily interested in saving money, the Hisense U7G might be the right choice since it's significantly less expensive than the TCL QM8. However, the TCL QM8 offers a superior picture quality which could enhance your movie-watching and gaming experiences. In brightly lit environments, the Hisense might not perform as well as the TCL QM8, but the difference may not be a dealbreaker. When considering the Hisense U7G, you're looking at a great all-around TV that offers good value for its price, but if investing in a higher-end TV for better overall performance is within your budget, then the TCL QM8 could be the better option.

About Hisense

Hisense, a Chinese TV manufacturer, entered the US market in approximately 2011 and has since acquired TV divisions from various companies such as Toshiba, Sharp, Hitachi, and NEC. Currently ranking as the fourth largest vendor in terms of sales volume, Hisense aims to capture a wide range of TV budget segments. They offer exceptional value with TVs that often outperform their competitors at similar price points, making them a compelling choice for consumers. In the US, they use Google TV as their smart TV software which provides the largest app selection and a very modern user interface, however it is not as user friendly as the software from other vendors.

About TCL

TCL, the highly recognizable TV brand from China, has firmly established itself as the second-largest manufacturer in terms of sales volume. Renowned for striking an impressive balance between affordability, picture quality, and design, TCL TVs deliver a compelling overall package. While they have traditionally excelled in the low-end and midrange TV segments, TCL has recently made remarkable strides in the realm of high-end televisions, introducing impressive models that rival top competitors. Most TCL TVs use Roku software which is very user friendly and easy to use, but they have a few other models that use Google TV which has the largest app selection, but is not as user friendly as Roku.
