The Hisense A6H may be a more budget-friendly choice and can perform well for gaming, cartoons, and animations due to its lower input lag and higher gaming score. It also offers good performance for watching news, talk, and reality TV.
On the other hand, the Samsung CU7000 offers a better overall picture quality, which can enhance your experience when watching movies and sports. It has superior performance in dark rooms, which might be important if you often watch TV in low-light conditions. The Samsung model also has a higher build quality with better quality control and assurance.
Both are 60Hz LCD TVs with similar accessibility features, but the Samsung has one less HDMI port. If you are using many devices that require HDMI connections, this could be a drawback.
Consider what you prioritize: if cost and gaming are your main concerns, the Hisense A6H could be more suitable. For overall picture quality and dark room viewing, the Samsung CU7000 would be a more fitting choice. Give Feedback

The Samsung CU7000 (LCD) and Hisense A6H (LCD) are both poor for movies & TV, though the Samsung CU7000 (LCD) is somewhat better.
The Hisense A6H is not ideal for movies and cinematic TV because it has a low contrast, lacks local dimming, and has subpar black uniformity, resulting in washed-out dark scenes. In comparison, the Samsung CU7000, though better in contrast, also lacks effective local dimming and struggles with black uniformity, leading to less than optimal movie-watching experiences.

The Samsung CU7000 (LCD) and Hisense A6H (LCD) are both only fair for sports, though the Samsung CU7000 (LCD) is somewhat better.
The Hisense A6H has a better viewing angle which makes it more suitable for watching sports in larger groups, but it struggles more with reflections which can be a problem in bright rooms, while the Samsung CU7000 manages reflections slightly better but has a more limited viewing angle making it less ideal for group viewing. Both TVs are fairly similar in terms of response time and gray uniformity, which are key for displaying sports content with smooth motion and consistent color across the screen.

The Hisense A6H has a poor response time which can result in motion blur during fast-paced games, but it excels with low input lag, making it responsive to gaming controls. The Samsung CU7000 offers fair response time which better handles motion, and very good input lag, which is also responsive, providing a balanced gaming performance.

The Samsung CU7000 (LCD) and Hisense A6H (LCD) are both poor for cartoons & animation.
The Hisense A6H and Samsung CU7000 perform poorly for watching cartoons and animation due to limitations in color reproduction; the Hisense A6H, while having better initial color accuracy, has a limited color gamut resulting in less vibrant hues, and the Samsung CU7000 struggles with both out-of-the-box color accuracy and a similarly poor color gamut, making animated content appear less dynamic and rich on both TVs.

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers Samsung CU7000 (LCD) to be only fair for news, talk, & other TV, while the Hisense A6H (LCD) is poor.
The Hisense A6H tends to perform poorly in upscaling and SDR brightness, which affects its capability to provide clearer images and visibility in a bright room, making it less suitable for watching news and talk shows. The Samsung CU7000, while also not exceptional, offers fair performance in SDR brightness and upscaling, thus resulting in a marginal improvement in presenting clearer content and maintaining image quality in bright settings compared to the Hisense A6H.
