My old TV was an entry level Hisense Roku TV purchased on sale for less than $400. It was much better than I ever expected it to be for the price but wasn’t great for certain sports (especially hockey and tennis). I decided to upgrade for a better picture and a faster refresh rate so I could see the smaller, faster balls and pucks. This TV fit the bill. In terms of looks, It’s not the thinnest TV. In fact, it is thicker than the older, cheaper TV it replaced. However, the back surface is much smoother and easier to clean. From the front, the bezels are very thin. The feet are not as good as on my previous 2 TVs. The TV is a little wobbly if you touch it. It doesn’t feel like it will topple, it just isn’t rock solid. The Remote: If you are familiar with Fire TV sticks, you will be instantly able to use this TV. The basics are easy enough. I’m still trying to figure out the more detailed settings. The streaming box we use for our cable company is apparently Fire TV based so the TVs remote does change channels and allows me to control a few other features as well. Setup: Because I already have a Fire TV stick, setup was super simple. I connected to my Phone Via Bluetooth, used a QR code to log into my Amazon account, and was guided the rest of the way by the TV. The initial update took longer than I expected, about10 minutes, but wasn’t too bad. I was able to import the same apps I had on my stick. OS: Fire TV isn’t my favorite. The home screen is a bit messy and I haven’t found a way to get it to always start on a specific input. Best I can do is have it open on last input. I wish the home screen was simpler. The Picture: This is the best part of this TV. The picture is brighter, more colorful than my last TV and can produce some surprisingly dark blacks. Motion blur is reduced somewhat but not as much as I had hoped, at least with hockey. I’m still adjusting settings. Setting it to Sports mode in picture settings helps, but hopefully I can find something to make it even better. I had read online that the picture degrades quickly as you move to the side. While it does somewhat, it doesn’t seem as bad as others described. Additionally, the anti-glare screen is great. I had so much glare on my previous TV, it could be very distracting. There is almost no glare on this TV. The Sound: It is surprisingly good. It won’t blow you away but it’s not painful to listen to like all my previous flat panel TV’s. It also has plenty of volume. I can hear it nicely at volume level 15. However, I’m not giving up my soundbar and subwoofer any time soon. Inputs: There are 4 HDMI ports. One is ARC Compliant. Two are compatible with 144 Hz inputs and the other two are 60 Hz max. There is also an ethernet port if you prefer a wired internet connection. There is a digital audio out jack and two USB ports for powering streaming sticks. There is also a coax in if you have an old school DVR or DVD Player that used it. One surprising omission is an aux out jack. I connect high-quality Bluetooth speakers to my other TV’s because they all sound so bad. I guess this is OK since the built-in speakers are decent on this TV. The Verdict: This is a very good TV. Especially considering features to cost. Comparable TVs from most competitors will cost much more. Again, not a fan of Amazon TV OS which is why a deducted a star. However, I definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a new TV with a great picture and good sound.

Im glad I got a chance to pick up this 65 inch Hisense TV because my old tv was starting to show its age and i've heard amazing things about MiniLED. After using it for a few weeks i can honestly say it exceeded my expectations. The picture quality is the first thing that stands out. the mini led backlighting and qled panel make a huge difference compared to my old tv. colors look insanely bright and vibrant without looking fake, and the contrast is really good too. i watched a few movies the first night i got it and kept noticing little details in darker scenes that i never saw before. 4k content looks fantastic and even regular streaming shows seem sharper. i also do a decent amount of gaming and the tv has handled that really well. motion looks smooth and i havent noticed any major issues with lag. sports look great too, which was something i was worried about before buying. fast moving scenes stay pretty clear and dont turn into a blurry mess. the fire tv system has been easy to use so far. everything was simple to set up and i was signed into my streaming apps pretty quickly. the menus are responsive and i havent run into any crashes or weird glitches. the remote is straightforward too, which i appreciate because some smart tv remotes try way too hard to be fancy. sound quality is actually better than i expected from a flat screen tv, I still use my own soundbar but I tested out the built in speakers and was pretty surprised that the quality of the speakers was above average for sure. overall im really happy with this tv. between the mini led display, qled colors, 4k picture quality, and easy to use smart features, it feels like a lot of TV. if youre looking for a big screen upgrade without spending a fortune, this one is definitely worth considering.

I’ve been really impressed with the Hisense 65-inch Class U6 Pro TV. The picture quality is outstanding for the price, with bright colors, deep blacks, and excellent contrast. Watching movies, sports, and streaming in 4K looks fantastic, and the HDR performance really makes scenes pop. The setup was quick and easy, and the smart TV interface is responsive and simple to navigate. Apps load fast, and I haven’t experienced any lag. The sound quality is decent on its own, but it pairs well with a soundbar if you want a more immersive experience. Overall, this TV delivers premium features at a great value. If you’re looking for a high-quality 65-inch TV without spending a fortune, I highly recommend the Hisense U6 Pro. It’s exceeded my expectations.
We’ve had this TV up and running for about five days now, and we love it. The picture is bright, clear, and sharp. Setup was very simple (as described below). It comes with a stand, but we mounted it on the wall in our living room. While the TV is relatively light (about 40 lbs), the manual cautions you to have three people on hand during the unboxing process, two to remove the packaging and one to hold the TV steady. Of course, the last thing you want is to have your brand-new TV fall over! Mounting on the wall does require a bracket supplied separately, and you’ll obviously need to follow the instructions that come with yours regarding mounting the bracket on the wall and mounting the part that attaches to the TV to the back of the TV. Connectivity options are plentiful. There four HDMI ports, one of which has the all-important “eARC” feature which allows two-way communication between the TV and whatever is connected to this port. In my case, I connected my soundbar to this port, and eARC allows the TV’s remote to control the soundbar’s functions. The TV also recognizes what it attached, so when you are looking at what is connected to the various inputs, the menu displays the brand of the soundbar, rather than just saying “port 3" or whatever. There is also a single USB port, generally used for software updates, a coaxial cable connector for an external antenna, an “AV IN” port for listening to other audio sources through the TV, and a headphone port which presumably can be connected to simple external speakers (or a pair of headphones, of course). I have not used these two ports. This is a Fire TV, which means it has the capability of an Amazon Fire TV streaming device built-in. This also means that Amazon’s “Alexa” voice system can be used to control pretty much everything about the TV, including switching inputs, searching for programs or music, changing channels, and more. I have to admit that, while the Alexa feature works fine, I’m a bit old school, and I like the comfort of pressing buttons on a remote. But I am changing! There is, of course, an actual remote control (called “Voice Remote With Alexa) as well which can control many aspects of the TV including a button that activates voice control. It took a little playing around with it to get the hang of it, but I’m pretty good now. The remote requires two AAA batteries, which are included. As noted at the top, setup was simple. There is a guided setup process that appears when you turn on the TV for the first time. This is where you connect the TV to your home wireless network. The TV automatically pairs with the voice remote, but a process is described on how to rectify the situation if you experience issues with the pairing of the remote. All in all, we’re looking forward to years of good TV viewing!

I have had the Hisense 65" U6 Pro for a week now and I'm happy to say, Hisense continues to move the needle toward excellence. The U6 Pro does a lot of things well, although there are a few things that keep it from being a perfect experience. Unboxing: The process to getting this TV unboxed was honestly a chore. It arrived inside a wooden crate on a pallet, which meant removing a lot of screws before I could even get to the box itself. You might say the packaging did its job because it arrived without a scratch, however it was a bit overdone. Discarding all the wood, padding and packaging waste afterward was a headache. From start to finish it took me close to an hour just to get everything unpacked and cleaned up. Fire TV Interface: The biggest drawback for me has been the Amazon Fire TV interface. It feels crowded and sometimes unresponsive, whether it be a technical issue or optimization, this is my experience thus far. I have had instances where the screen would completely freeze and had to be unplugged and rebooted. Most of these issues started after trying Amazon Luna, which is promoted during the initial setup as a cloud gaming platform. Because of these issues, I am seriously considering using an external streaming device instead of relying on Amazon's Fire TV software, for all my streaming needs. Audio: I'm really impressed in the quality of sound output of the U6 Pro. The built-in subwoofer makes massive difference and provides much better bass than I expected from a television. Dolby Atmos coupled with IMAX and DTS features truly turn your home into a theater. Movies in particular have a fuller more immersive audio experience. Music also sounds very good. An external soundbar is definitely not necessary. But, that's a matter of opinion. Gaming Performance: Gaming has overall been excellent. The 144Hz refresh rate, VRR support and FreeSync Premium all make for a fantastic alternative to a traditional monitor. My games looked outstanding and the 1200 nits makes the HDR pop compared to my previous TV with only 1000. I also like that out of the 4 HDMI ports, 2 of them support the high refresh rate, so I can have my Xbox and ps5 connected simultaneously. Picture Quality: The picture quality took a bit of tinkering at first but is definitely the highlight. The default settings didn't really show what this U6 Pro was capable of. After making a few adjustments, the image quality was improved dramatically. Colors look vibrant and the panel is sharp. The screen handles daytime viewing very well thanks to its brightness and anti reflection screen. The super resolution feature is also extremely useful. We only have the 1080p streaming HBO Max plan but a lot of content looked far sharper than expected on this TV compared to the other one we were using. While the content may not be 4k, this TV does a wonderful job enhancing lower-resolution movies and shows. Summary: While there are a few hiccups, my overall experience has been great. From the crisp picture quality to gaming performance and superb audio, the U6 Pro has been a pleasure to use. The User interface/operating system is not my favorite and is my biggest issue. If Amazon can improve the software stability and overall user experience in a future update, this would easily be a five-star product.

Highly recommended for the price. The brightness, glare reduction and picture quality are excellent. I'm not a huge fan of the Amazon Fire interface, and would prefer google tv, but it's not a deal breaker. Slightly buggy/slow software. Otherwise, 5 stars

After doing a lot of research i am glad i bought Hisense U6 pro tv .Picture quality and sound is amazing.
So I am using this TV not exactly as it was intended, but I find it to be a very good outdoor TV. I have recently built a new outdoor bar/kitchen area at my house and part of the setup, includes a spot for a TV. Before getting this TV, I was using a OLED screen which, while is very nice for indoor use, not the best for outdoor use, especially if glare is an issue with you. Considering my backyard is mostly concrete, the sun's reflection during peak daylight is quite intense and casts an intense glare towards the TV screen. However, the U6 Pro's screen has a anti glare coating on it, almost like a matte finish, and the MINILED provides a huge brightness boost to help in bright situations where the color might be washed out. The picture quality is quite good for a miniLED TV, and especially for being outdoors. The colors are extremely vibrant, the 120 refresh rate is a great plus when watching sports (which is the main purpose of the outdoor TV!). I do have one gripe though about the TV, for some reason, I can not get it to open to the last used input, so this means, everytime I power the TV on, it defaults to the home screen which is quite annoying. Also, it has issues with CEC and using a Roku remote, for some reason it does not honor the power function. Hoping this is just firmware that needs to be updated and not a permanent issue. Other than that, setup was a breeze with the Amazon app, mounting it was dead simple as this is pretty light (40 lbs). I can't speak to indoor use, but if you need a great Outdoor TV that you won't have to worry about squinting to see on a bright day, then I highly recommend the u6 pro.

Was very iffy about this tv but turned out to be a really good tv.! It has so many features

I did not know the product connection to Amazon. All the questions asking if we wanted to purchase prime, etc. as it loaded were sickening. No numbers on remote( a thing of the past). We are adjusting. Non glare is about our only happiness.

The Hisense Class U6 PRO Mini-LED is a great television, especially at this price point. I don’t think you can beat the QLED display. The crispness and contrast of the colors are a real selling point. The blacks are black and the colors seem to pop off the tv. The anti-glare matte screen is a really nice touch, pair it with the Ambient Experience, the tv looks like an art gallery at home. There are hundreds of art work that you can save as your Screen Saver, with a tap of the power button the art takes over. You can also use art apps like Artcast that has galleries already created. I have seen some negative reviews on the built in soundbar, at the price point I feel like the sound is pretty good. Its not like a 500 watt soundbar crushing you with power, but it is good enough for you to enjoy the base without feeling underwhelmed. If you hook up your gaming console or pc to it the 144Hz refresh rate along with the QLED display is a great combo for a long gaming session. This is a Smart Tv with the Amazon Fire interface and system built in. If you are used to the Amazon Fire ecosystems are will enjoy having it built in. If you are a google or Apple TV person this might not be the tv for you.

Hisense did a really good job with this TV! The Hi‑QLED technology truly makes the images and colors pop, nothing looks dull or tinted. For me, it was basically plug‑and‑play. I didn’t tweak many settings; I just logged into my apps and it was ready to go. The operating system could use a bit more RAM or optimization since it can get slightly laggy at times, but it’s not frequent or disruptive, just something to be aware of. The sound is fantastic with Dolby Atmos. It’s immersive and absolutely strong enough on its own. I also really enjoy the AI features that adjust the picture based on ambient lighting to give you the best possible image. The TV feels pretty lightweight too. I wouldn’t set it up completely by myself, but it’s definitely manageable. It comes well‑equipped with Wi‑Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2, so connectivity won’t be an issue, and 4K streaming is smooth as long as your internet can keep up. It does include HDMI 2.1 ports, so you can fully take advantage of higher refresh rates for gaming and movies. As an all‑in‑one media hub, this TV really shines; music, movies, gaming, whatever you throw at it, this bad boy has you covered!

I recently upgraded from an older Hisense Android 4K TV to the new U6 Pro MiniLED Series QLED Smart Fire TV and the difference we noticeable from the moment it was setup and usage across sporting events, movies or just watching videos. The Android system on the older model gave me issues over the years in terms of support for some streaming apps and Wifi connectivity. After a week's use the Fire TV system has been impressive and all the previously mentioned glitches are gone! Unboxing & Setup: Not sure if all manufacturers use the same setup, but the Hinsense box is strapped and once cut simply slide the top of the box right off the TV. It couldn't be any easier, especially for a 65" TV. Although its a job for two people, I was able to unbox, install the legs and stand it up by myself. There are 2 legs with 2 screws per leg to install and Hisnense provides 2 options for spacing depending on the width of your TV stand. The TV can also be hung on the wall. The U6 has several connectivity options and has the important eARC HDMI port, which we use for our soundbar. This allows the single remote to run the TV and the soundbar. Once connected and powered on there was a firmware update that ran and took about 7-8 minutes to complete. Usage: Not sure if it was my disappointment with the previously owned Android based TV, but I am very happy with the Fire TV OS so far. It supports all of the streaming apps we use and after a week of usage it has learned our preferences and builds out options based on those preferences. It is quick when scrolling through options and the overall layout is neat and intuitive. Although there have been voice options on previous TV/remotes, I've starting using Alexa voice commands and it's been a game-changer. We have an existing soundbar, but I ran the native speakers and subwoofer and was pleasantly surprised with the overall sound quality. On the audio topic, the voice enhancement option (low, medium, high) is also a bonus. Speaking of the soundbar, once connected to the eARC port, it was ready to use with the included TV remote, no special pairing was required. One of the main reasons for a new TV is for watching the World Cup, and the U6 MiniLED did not disappoint! The native 144Hz refresh rate is also enhanced with AI Smooth Motion (480 Motion Rate) keeping the action smooth and cuts out that choppiness found on most lower end TVs. The crowd at our home got larger for each game because everyone loved the picture quality that much! There are a number of AI features listed for this TV, but one that really stuck out is the AI Light Sensor. Our TV room gets varying sunlight over the course of the day and this feature automatically adjusts the TV to the brighter or darker environment. There are so many features to list for this smart TV, but ultimately it's about the picture quality and the overall experience. I can say the color and sharpness on this TV is better than any we have previously owned. With a AI support it's basically a "set it and forget it" TV, but for those who like to tinker there is plenty of adjustability and fine tuning available. The Fire TV platform has been stable and easy to operate. Pros: - Picture quality is hands down the number one feature of this TV - Fire TV platform is stable and easy to navigate and learns user preferences - Internal speakers and subwoofer are better than average - AI Light Sensor feature is very important for our TV room - Alex integration for voice commands - Refresh Rate provides incredible picture smoothness for sporting events, etc. - Could go on and on! Cons: - TV is a bit deeper than I would expect in today's TV market - not really an issue though Overall the Hisense U6 MiniLED QLED 4K UHD Smart Fire TV has been a welcome addition to our home. The picture quality and adjustability, AI features and Fire TV platforms have all exceeded expectations and I would certainly recommend this TV to anyone in the market!

With TVs nowadays, my expectations have been low… sure you have your high end, expensive, name brand sets that will cost a bit more but should exceed expectations, then you have some super cheap sets with “low end” components that will undoubtedly let you down. With this set, I think it hits that perfect middle sweet spot of being a nice set that will exceed your expectations without costing an arm and a leg. I’m already on the Amazon ecosystem and have several fire tvs and fire sticks as my primary streaming devices throughout my home, so I found setup to be super easy and intuitive. Streaming apps were easy to sign into and I haven’t had any glitches with anything so far. Clarity and picture quality have been really great, a huge upgrade from my old tv. I’ve been using it for movies at night and some sports so far and it’s truly exceeded my expectations with picture quality and performance. I wasnt too familiar with this brands performance but after using this for awhile now I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this to anyone looking for a great upgrade from their current setup.

I am in complete awe of this new television. Having used an older television of the same exact size, I couldn’t possibly be happier with the resolution of this one. The colors are so vibrant and sharp. The display is also reflection resistant, so no more closing the blinds when viewing my shows. There are six different picture modes to choose from. The “Vivid” mode is my favorite. It also has options for light sensing and appears to adapt and adjust nicely to various lighting conditions. The sound was very poor on my older television and it sounds so much better with this one. There are five different sound modes to choose from as well. I’m just using the default for sound. The setup is very similar to setting up an Amazon Firestick, so it was extremely easy and straight forward. I simply had it copy from a previous setup and I was up and running in no time. The refresh rate is very good with no noticeable lag or pixelation when watching sporting related video. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with this television. It was easy to hang and looks great. It has a different function when hitting the power button once that puts the display into a picture mode.
