    Since your post hasn't been replied to and I was originally thinking the same thing previouly, I will attempt to explain a few things.

     

    I have recently purchased the H256HU, it has been great so far however I was firstly considering the G7 until I stumbled upon the H7.

     

    I believe (however not 100% sure) that the H7 has a much better design, the stand and frame are all metal whereas some parts of the G7 seem to be plastic (what I have read in a few places).

     

    Overall, they both seem to be great monitors and use very similar if not the same screens but the H7 is definately a lot better in terms of build quality and maybe even speaker quality (however wouldn't expect too much from the speakers as the monitor is very slim). The monitor speakers are suitable for normal usage however for other such as gaming, music and films I would recommend purchasing seperate speakers to improve your experience.
