If you prioritize overall picture quality, especially in both dark and bright rooms, and enjoy gaming, the Hisense U8G is a superior choice, though it is more expensive. This TV offers better contrast, higher peak brightness for HDR content, and more effective reflection handling. On the other hand, the Hisense U7H is more budget-friendly and still provides good picture quality, motion processing, and low input lag, making it suitable for a variety of content including gaming. However, it may not perform as well in very bright rooms, and its dark room performance is not quite as strong as the U8G. Give Feedback

The Hisense U8G (LCD) is very good for movies & TV, while the Hisense U7H (LCD) is good.
The Hisense U8G is favored for movie watching due to its superior black uniformity, which enhances viewing in dark scenes common in movies, along with a higher contrast ratio and more effective local dimming, contributing to deeper blacks and better shadow detail. While the Hisense U7H also performs well with a good contrast and local dimming, its lower black uniformity means that it may not represent dark scenes as accurately as the U8G, and it may exhibit more uneven colors and brightness across the screen.

The Hisense U8G (LCD) is very good for gaming, while the Hisense U7H (LCD) is good.
The Hisense U8G is rated better for gaming than the Hisense U7H because it has a superior response time, which means it can display fast-moving content with less blurring. Both TVs have a similar input lag—which is how quickly a TV can display the image from a gaming console or PC—but the better response time of the U8G gives it an edge for gaming performance.

The Hisense U8G (LCD) is very good for cartoons & animation, while the Hisense U7H (LCD) is good.
The Hisense U8G excels in presenting cartoons and animation due to its excellent color accuracy straight out of the box and a very good color gamut, which ensures a wide range of vibrant colors.

The Hisense U8G (LCD) and Hisense U7H (LCD) are both very good for news, talk, & other TV, though the Hisense U8G (LCD) is somewhat better.
The Hisense U7H and U8G both excel at upscaling lower-resolution content to their 4K screens and offer high SDR brightness, making them suitable for watching news and TV programs. While the U7H performs well with colors straight out of the box and has a good color gamut enhancing the picture quality, the U8G slightly outpaces it with excellent color accuracy out of the box and a very good color gamut, providing a more vibrant and true-to-life viewing experience.

The Hisense U8G (LCD) and Hisense U7H (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Hisense U7H has poorer motion processing and slower response time compared to the Hisense U8G, making the latter a slightly better option for sports; however, both have issues with reflections handling and limited viewing angles which can be a drawback for bright rooms and wider seating arrangements.

Tom's guide
Christian de Looper | December 2022
"We loved the Hisense U7H. It was able to deliver an excellent all-around image quality in its price range. The TV excels at controlling its backlighting in a way that ensures you’ll never experience blooming to a level of being distracting, something that I was a little surprised to see given the lack of Mini LED. The TV doesn’t just get decently bright it offers relatively accurate color reproduction for a TV in this price range. The TV is being billed excellent for gaming."
