Hisense 65U7Q
The TCL 65Q6C-UK and Hisense 65U7Q are both 65-inch 4K Mini-LED TVs aimed at users who want premium picture quality, fast gaming performance, and modern smart TV features without stepping into flagship pricing. Both support 144Hz refresh rates, HDMI 2.1 connectivity, Dolby Vision, VRR, ALLM, and Mini-LED backlighting. However, the TCL takes a more aggressive approach with up to 512 local dimming zones, an integrated ONKYO 2.1 sound system, Google TV, and advanced gaming features. The Hisense counters with solid brightness performance, a longer warranty, and a clean gaming-focused experience through its ULED platform.
Verdict
The TCL 65Q6C-UK is the stronger overall package for most buyers. Its higher-end Mini-LED implementation, ONKYO 2.1 audio system with built-in subwoofer, Google TV ecosystem, Dolby Vision IQ, and richer gaming features make it the better choice for home cinema enthusiasts and gamers.
The Hisense 65U7Q remains a compelling alternative if warranty coverage is a priority and you prefer a simpler smart TV experience. However, TCL delivers more premium features for the money.
