Summary

Similarities:
Both models offer 4K resolution, QLED Mini-LED technology, HDR10/HDR10+/Dolby Vision/HLG support, anti-reflection coating, wide viewing angles (178°), advanced gaming synchronization technologies, Dolby Atmos audio, built-in subwoofer, and full smart TV integration with Google TV, Chromecast, AirPlay, and multiple voice assistant compatibility. Peak brightness is the same at 1500 nits, making both excellent for bright rooms.

Differences:

• Refresh Rate & Gaming: The Hisense offers a native 144Hz refresh rate, while the TCL has a 120Hz panel but supports 144Hz VRR and a Game Accelerator mode up to 240 VRR, making TCL potentially better for competitive gaming scenarios.
• Local Dimming Zones: TCL specifies 1500 local dimming zones, giving a clearer picture of its contrast performance. Hisense does not state this figure.
• Audio: TCL features an Onkyo-tuned 2.1 system with DTS Virtual:X and Enhanced Dialogue Mode, while Hisense also has strong audio but lacks mention of DTS Virtual:X or advanced dialogue processing.
• Design & Build: Hisense is heavier (73.48 kg vs. 61.01 kg), suggesting a bulkier frame. TCL is slimmer (71.1 mm vs. 88.9 mm).
• Ports: Hisense has fewer USB ports (2 vs. 3 on TCL).
• Warranty: Hisense offers a longer warranty (2 years vs. 1 year for TCL).
• Extra Features: TCL supports Apple HomeKit and offers a backlit voice remote, which may appeal to Apple ecosystem users and low-light remote operation.

Recommendations

• For Competitive Gamers: TCL 98QM751G — Higher VRR range (up to 240), Game Accelerator mode, and lower weight for easier setup in gaming rooms.
• For Home Theater Enthusiasts: Hisense 100U8K — Native 144Hz, slightly larger 100" screen, longer 2-year warranty, and high brightness for cinematic experiences in both bright and dark environments.
• For Mixed Use (Sports, Movies, Gaming): TCL 98QM751G — Balanced performance, detailed local dimming spec, rich audio features, and enhanced gaming smoothness.
• For Bright Living Rooms: Both models are excellent due to 1500 nits brightness and anti-reflection coating.
