However, it's more expensive than the Vizio V-Series '22. The Vizio, on the other hand, is more budget-friendly but doesn't match the performance of the Hisense U7K, particularly in dark room settings and overall picture quality. Give Feedback

The Hisense U7K (LCD) is very good for gaming, while the Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense U7K (LCD) provides a better gaming experience due to its very good response time and good input lag scores, which contribute to smoother on-screen action and quicker reaction times for gamers. In contrast, the Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD), despite having very good input lag, offers a fair response time which can result in less fluid movement and a less responsive gaming experience.

The Hisense U7K (LCD) is very good for cartoons & animation, while the Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) is only fair.
The Hisense U7K is regarded very good for watching cartoons and animation due to its very good color performance right out of the box, combined with a very good color gamut and color volume, ensuring vibrant and consistent colors across different shades. In contrast, the Vizio V-Series '22, despite its excellent colors out of the box, falls short with only fair scores in color gamut and color volume, leading to a less impressive range and depth of colors.

The Hisense U7K (LCD) is very good for news, talk, & other TV, while the Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense U7K is better for watching news, talk shows, and other TV programs than the Vizio V-Series '22 because it performs very well at upscaling lower-resolution content and delivers strong SDR brightness, which enhances clarity and visibility. In contrast, the Vizio has poor upscaling and lacks local dimming, which could lead to a less clear image and poorer contrast, especially in well-lit environments.

The Hisense U7K (LCD) and Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Hisense U7K's motion processing isn't ideal for watching fast-paced sports due to its good response time, whereas the Vizio V-Series '22 performs with fair response time, leading to more blurred motion. Both have similar challenges with reflections and viewing angles, which can affect the viewing experience from off-center positions or in bright rooms.

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.
