The Hisense U8G is often more expensive but provides better overall picture quality, a superior gaming experience, and performs well in bright rooms. It's ideal for movies and has excellent contrast and color performance. The Vizio Quantum Pro costs less and is a newer model. While it offers a good gaming experience and supports voice commands, it doesn't perform as well in bright environments and has somewhat lower picture and motion processing quality compared to the Hisense U8G. Consider the Hisense U8G if picture quality and gaming are priorities and you're okay with a higher price. Choose the Vizio if you'd prefer to save money and need voice command features.

The Hisense U8G (LCD) is very good for movies & TV, while the Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) is only fair.
The Hisense U8G (LCD) delivers an exceptional watching experience for movies and cinematic TV due to its high contrast, effective local dimming capability, and solid black uniformity, enhancing picture depth and dark scene reproduction. In comparison, the Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) is rated lower in these very important factors, with less impressive contrast and black uniformity, which can result in less vivid images and less effective portrayal of dark scenes.

The Hisense U8G (LCD) is very good for news, talk, & other TV, while the Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) is only fair.
The Hisense U8G excels in upscaling lower-resolution content often seen in news and TV programs, delivering better SDR brightness which makes it very suitable for daytime viewing. In comparison, the Vizio Quantum Pro's fair performance in these aspects, including a less effective upscaling and less impressive SDR brightness, could make it less desirable for watching such content, especially in brighter rooms.

The Hisense U8G (LCD) is very good for bright room, while the Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) is good.
The Hisense U8G is better suited for bright rooms partly due to its higher SDR and HDR brightness, which combats ambient light effectively, while its excellent handling of reflections reduces the impact of light sources directly on the screen. The Vizio Quantum Pro, while also good in bright rooms, has slightly lower brightness levels and although it handles reflections very well, it might not be as overpowering against intense light as the Hisense.

The Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) and Hisense U8G (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Hisense U8G and Vizio Quantum Pro both have very good response times and handle reflections well, making them suitable for sports in rooms with different lighting conditions. However, their motion handling is considered just fair, which might result in some blur during fast action, and while their wide viewing angles are decent, they are better for direct viewing than from sharp angles.

The Hisense U8G (LCD) and Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) are both very good for gaming.
The Hisense U8G provides excellent response times and good input lag performance, making it highly responsive for gaming sessions, while Vizio Quantum Pro also delivers very good response times and good input lag for a smooth gaming experience. However, both use a 120Hz refresh rate, which ensures games appear fluid and free from motion blur, but the Hisense may be slightly more appealing to gamers due to its higher response time performance.

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.
