If you prioritize gaming and have a lower budget, the Hisense U7H is less expensive and offers a good gaming experience with low input lag. However, it may not be the best choice for watching sports due to its lower performance in handling fast motion. The Sony X90K, while more expensive, provides a better overall picture quality and is superior for sports content with its excellent motion handling. It's also better suited for bright rooms and has a higher build quality. Both TVs offer good performance in a dark room and have solid HDR capability. Neither set excels at wide viewing angles, so they're not ideal if you frequently watch from the side. Both also support Dolby Vision and have 4 HDMI ports, but keep in mind that a sound system may be beneficial, as their built-in speakers are not exceptional. Give Feedback

Tom's guide

Christian de Looper | December 2022
"We loved the Hisense U7H. It was able to deliver an excellent all-around image quality in its price range. The TV excels at controlling its backlighting in a way that ensures you’ll never experience blooming to a level of being distracting, something that I was a little surprised to see given the lack of Mini LED. The TV doesn’t just get decently bright it offers relatively accurate color reproduction for a TV in this price range. The TV is being billed excellent for gaming."

Al Griffin | December 2022
"As Sony’s next-to-flagship LCD TV, the X90K series delivers impressive performance for the price. The XR90K had fairly accurate out-of-box color. The TV’s multi-position stand lets you either set the screen flush with any stand its mounted on or elevate it to clear space for a soundbar. With the latter option, you get around 3 inches of clearance enough to accommodate most soundbars. The X90K’s excellent suite of gaming features ranks it up there with the best 120 Hz 4K TVs."

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 Sony

Sony's high-end TVs are often regarded as the ultimate choice for videophiles, representing the epitome of quality, albeit at a premium price point. Renowned for their advanced and precise motion handling, as well as their cutting-edge local dimming algorithms, Sony consistently delivers unparalleled performance in these areas.
