The Hisense U7K is a good choice if you are looking for something more affordable and with excellent gaming performance. However, it won't offer the same level of picture quality as the LG G3, particularly in bright rooms or for watching sports. On the other hand, the LG G3, while more expensive, provides a superior viewing experience for most content, including movies, series, and in dark rooms. Its OLED technology delivers better contrast and black levels. If you're looking for top-notch picture quality and can afford the higher price, the LG G3 is recommended. Keep in mind that the LG G3 also has great sound quality with built-in speakers. However, both TVs support popular HDR formats and have voice command accessibility. Give Feedback
