Both the Hisense U7K and Vizio Quantum Pro are similarly priced LCD TVs. The Hisense U7K stands out for gaming due to its higher gaming score and supports 4k gaming at a higher refresh rate, which could be beneficial if you are a serious gamer. It also boasts better contrast and black uniformity, making it suitable for darker rooms, and performs slightly better in bright rooms.
The Vizio Quantum Pro, though, has a higher SDR brightness score, which indicates it may be a bit more capable in very well-lit rooms. However, its overall picture quality, reflection handling, and black uniformity don't match the Hisense U7K, which could detract from your viewing experience in darker settings.
If gaming is a priority and you have a varied viewing environment, the Hisense U7K might be more to your liking, while if you prioritize bright room performance and can live with slightly lower overall picture quality, the Vizio Quantum Pro could be suitable. Give Feedback

The Hisense U7K (LCD) is very good for movies & TV, while the Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) is only fair.
The Hisense U7K is very good for watching movies and cinematic TV because it has high contrast, effective local dimming, and excellent black uniformity, all of which are crucial for a great dark scene performance. In contrast, the Vizio Quantum Pro is fair in the same content due to lower contrast, less effective local dimming, and poorer black uniformity, which can result in less detailed and washed-out images in darker scenes.

The Hisense U7K (LCD) and Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) are both very good for gaming, though the Hisense U7K (LCD) is somewhat better.
The Hisense U7K offers a very good response time which is crucial for gaming as it allows fast-moving content to be displayed without motion blur, and it also has good input lag which ensures that the time between pressing a button and seeing the result on screen is minimal. The Vizio Quantum Pro similarly provides a very good response time and good input lag, making it equally suitable for responsive gaming experiences. Both TVs are thus well-suited for gaming due to these attributes, contributing to their very good gaming performance.

The Hisense U7K (LCD) is very good for cartoons & animation, while the Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) is good.
The Hisense U7K excels in producing vibrant and accurate colors out of the box, making cartoons and animations come to life, while also offering a wide color gamut to enhance the richness of different hues. The Vizio Quantum Pro, while also having a very good color gamut, does not perform as impressively out of the box, which means colors might not be as lively or accurate initially without some adjustments.

The Hisense U7K (LCD) is very good for news, talk, & other TV, while the Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) is only fair.
The Hisense U7K provides better upscaling of low-resolution content commonly found in news and talk shows, contributing to clearer images on screen, while the Vizio Quantum Pro falls short in this aspect, despite both having similar SDR brightness which is crucial for clear visibility in brighter environments. The difference in contrast, with the Hisense U7K offering significantly higher contrast, ensures more vivid and deep images that are beneficial for such content, something that the Vizio Quantum Pro doesn't match as well.
The Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) and Hisense U7K (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Hisense U7K has a faster response time which is better for watching fast-moving sports; however, it has a narrower viewing angle that could reduce picture quality when viewed from the side. Both handle reflections well, but neither is exceptional regarding gray uniformity, which can affect the look of sports fields or courts.

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers Hisense U7K (LCD) to be very good for bright room, while the Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) is good.
The Hisense U7K outshines the Vizio Quantum Pro in bright rooms mainly due to its superior SDR and HDR brightness, which ensures clear visibility even under strong ambient light, and its highly effective handling of reflections. While both TVs offer similar performance in terms of color volume and color gamut, which contribute to vibrant and accurate colors, the superior brightness and reflection handling of the Hisense U7K make it particularly well-suited for brightly lit environments.

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.
