The Hisense U7G is typically a bit less expensive than the Vizio M-Series and offers better performance for gaming due to a higher gaming score. It also has better brightness for both standard and high dynamic range content, meaning it will handle bright rooms more effectively than the Vizio M-Series. On the other hand, the Vizio M-Series provides slightly superior performance in terms of color accuracy out of the box and has a better black uniformity, which means it can display more consistent blacks across the screen. This can be especially important for viewing movies and series in darker environments. Both TVs have similar overall picture quality, support for major HDR formats, and equal screen sizes. If gaming and bright room performance are your primary concerns, the Hisense U7G would be the preferred choice. If you prioritize movie-watching in darker rooms and color accuracy without the need for calibration, the Vizio M-Series might be more suitable. Give Feedback

The Hisense U7G (LCD) is very good for gaming, while the Vizio M-Series (LCD) is only fair.
The Hisense U7G has good response time and input lag for gaming, which allows for quicker on-screen reactions and smoother gameplay. In contrast, while the Vizio M-Series has fair response time, which may result in slightly more blurring during fast-moving games, it compensates with very good input lag, ensuring games are still responsive to controller inputs.

The Vizio M-Series (LCD) is very good for cartoons & animation, while the Hisense U7G (LCD) is good.
The Hisense U7G is considered good for watching cartoons and animation because its colors out of the box are fairly accurate and it has a good color gamut, making hues appear vibrant on screen. On the other hand, the Vizio M-Series boasts very good performance in both these aspects, which means colors will be more accurately depicted and potentially more vivid straight away without needing much adjustment, providing an engaging experience for animated content.

The Hisense U7G (LCD) is very good for news, talk, & other TV, while the Vizio M-Series (LCD) is good.
The Hisense U7G is very good for watching news, talk shows, and TV programs largely due to its superior ability to handle different resolutions effectively (upscaling) and brighter screen for standard dynamic range (SDR) content. In comparison, the Vizio M-Series is also good for such content, with strong performance in color accuracy out of the box and a wide color gamut, but it has a dimmer SDR brightness and less effective local dimming which might affect picture quality in very bright or dark scenes.

The Hisense U7G (LCD) is good for bright room, while the Vizio M-Series (LCD) is only fair.
The Hisense U7G is better suited for bright rooms due to its excellent SDR brightness and good HDR brightness, ensuring vivid picture quality even in well-lit conditions, while the Vizio M-Series, with fair SDR brightness and less impressive HDR brightness, may struggle to maintain picture quality in bright lighting. Both TVs are only fair when it comes to handling reflections, which doesn't impact the Hisense U7G's overall superior bright-room performance, but it does mean that the Vizio M-Series falls further behind in this aspect.

The Vizio M-Series (LCD) and Hisense U7G (LCD) are both good for movies & TV.
The Hisense U7G excels in movies and cinematic content with high contrast and effective local dimming which greatly enhances dark scene presentation, but its black uniformity is less impressive. In contrast, the Vizio M-Series offers very good contrast and exceptional black uniformity, ensuring deep blacks in movies, but it has less effective local dimming which might reduce the depth in some dark scenes.

The Vizio M-Series (LCD) and Hisense U7G (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Hisense U7G has good response time which is crucial for sports, but its fair motion processing and reflections handling along with limited viewing angles might be a concern in bright rooms and for viewers sitting off to the side. The Vizio M-Series, while offering fair motion processing and better sound quality, suffers from poorer reflection handling and a narrower viewing angle which could reduce the sports-watching experience, especially in well-lit environments and for larger groups spread out across the room.

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 Vizio
Vizio is an American company. While they initially gained recognition for offering budget-friendly TVs, they have successfully expanded their product lineup to include high-end options as well. They manufacture TVs primarily in Mexico, China, and Vietnam. Similar to many Korean TV brands, Vizio developed its own smart TV software called SmartCast. In the past, SmartCast was not the best smart TV software, but it has evolved so that it is now good for using your TV and connecting to streaming services.
