If you prioritize gaming and watching movies, the Hisense U8G is a strong choice, as it offers better performance for these activities compared to the Samsung Q70A. The Hisense U8G also has a higher bright room performance, which means it performs well in sunlit environments. However, for general TV watching, like news or sports, both TVs offer solid experiences with the Samsung Q70A having slightly better performance for sports content. Note that the Samsung Q70A does not support Dolby Vision which the Hisense U8G does, so if you consume content in this format, it could influence your decision. Give Feedback
