The Hisense U7H (LCD) is good for movies & TV, while the Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense U7H is better for movies and cinematic TV due to its superior contrast that allows for deeper blacks and more effective local dimming which improves the overall picture quality in dark scenes, compared to the Vizio V-Series '22 which falls short in these areas, offering lower contrast and less impressive black uniformity that can result in a less immersive viewing experience.

The Hisense U7H (LCD) is good for cartoons & animation, while the Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) is only fair.
The Hisense U7H is better than the Vizio V-Series '22 for watching cartoons and animation primarily because it has a higher score for colors out of the box and color gamut, ensuring more vibrant and accurate colors. Additionally, the Hisense has a higher color volume score which contributes to a wider range of colors, although other aspects like gray uniformity and contrast are comparable and less impactful in this context.

The Hisense U7H (LCD) is good for bright room, while the Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense U7H outperforms the Vizio V-Series '22 in a bright room due to its higher SDR and HDR brightness capabilities, meaning it can shine brighter to combat glare, despite both TVs having similar performance in handling reflections. While contrast, color volume, and color gamut are somewhat important, they are not as critical as brightness for viewing in bright conditions, where the Hisense holds its advantage.

The Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) and Hisense U7H (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Hisense U7H has a poorer response time compared to the Vizio V-Series '22, which can lead to more motion blur when watching sports; however, both TVs handle reflections similarly, making them fair for bright room viewing. Both the Hisense and Vizio models have limited viewing angles, meaning the picture can lose accuracy when viewed from the side, and both have fairly consistent colors across their screens, which is important for watching sports, but is not the most crucial aspect.

How the Hisense U7H (LCD) and the Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) compare to other TVs
"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."
