The Hisense U7H is a lower midrange priced TV that tends to provide good value for general use, including movies and gaming, particularly if you're on a budget. However, it may not perform as well in bright rooms and the sound quality won't match premium models. The Samsung QN90A is at a premium price point with greater emphasis on picture quality and performance in bright rooms, making it a better option if you often watch TV in well-lit environments. It also supports a wider range of HDR formats, which is important for enjoying high dynamic range content in movies and games. Choose the Hisense U7H if price is a major factor and you mostly watch in darker environments. Opt for the Samsung QN90A if you prioritize picture quality, bright room performance, and have a larger budget. Give Feedback

The Samsung QN90A (LCD) is good for sports, while the Hisense U7H (LCD) is only fair.
The Samsung QN90A provides a better experience for watching sports due to its very good response time and its handling of reflections; this means fast-moving objects are clearer and TV can be watched more comfortably in bright rooms. In contrast, the Hisense U7H has a poorer response time which may result in more motion blur during fast sports action, and its fair reflection handling could make it more susceptible to glare in well-lit environments.

The Samsung QN90A (LCD) is very good for gaming, while the Hisense U7H (LCD) is good.
The Samsung QN90A provides a better gaming experience because it has a faster response time and lower input lag compared to the Hisense U7H, which are crucial for quick reflexes and real-time reactions in games. Despite both TVs having the same refresh rate, the superior response time and input lag of the QN90A make it more suitable for demanding gaming sessions.

The Samsung QN90A (LCD) is very good for cartoons & animation, while the Hisense U7H (LCD) is good.
The Samsung QN90A provides the best colors out of the box, meaning its colors look great without the need for additional calibration, which is ideal for watching cartoons and animations. In contrast, the Hisense U7H offers fair colors out of the box, which are good but may not pop as much, and although both TVs have a good color gamut and very good color volume, the Samsung QN90A has an edge in default color accuracy.

The Samsung QN90A (LCD) and Hisense U7H (LCD) are both very good for news, talk, & other TV, though the Samsung QN90A (LCD) is somewhat better.
The Hisense U7H has very good upscaling and decent colors out of the box, making it suitable for watching news and TV programs with good detail on low-resolution content and fair color accuracy. On the other hand, the Samsung QN90A offers better out-of-the-box colors and excellent upscaling, resulting in a clearer picture and more vibrant colors for the same types of content, but it comes with a higher price tag.

The Samsung QN90A (LCD) is best in class for bright room, while the Hisense U7H (LCD) is good.
The Samsung QN90A is preferred for watching TV in a bright room because it has excellent reflection handling and high peak brightness in both SDR and HDR, which helps maintain picture quality in well-lit environments. In comparison, the Hisense U7H, although a good performer in bright rooms with very good SDR peak brightness and fair reflection handling, doesn't match the Samsung's brightness and reflection handling capabilities.

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."
