Hisense 65" U8 TV Review: Hardware Hero, Software
This Hisense 65" U8 TV is a serious contender for anyone looking for top-notch picture quality without the top-tier price tag. # Hardware Heaven Picture Perfect: The display is simply stunning. Brightness, color accuracy, and black levels are all excellent, making movies and shows truly immersive. Sound Sensation: The built-in speakers are surprisingly good. While a dedicated soundbar will always be better, the U8's audio is more than adequate for everyday viewing. Value Victor: This TV delivers premium features at a mid-range price, making it an incredible value. # Software Stumbles Google TV Glitches: While Google TV is generally a smooth and enjoyable experience, I've encountered occasional hiccups with the photo screensaver not loading correctly. Guest Account Gripes: The requirement to have a Google account for profiles is frustrating. I don't want to share my account or and shouldn't be forced to create a "guest" google account either. Overall: Despite the minor software quirks, the Hisense 65" U8 is a fantastic TV. The hardware is outstanding, providing a truly cinematic experience at home. If Hisense can iron out the software wrinkles, this TV would easily be a 5-star knockout.

This TV is a cinephiles dream come true.
So my 65” tv in my living room I’ve had for 4 years died and I needed to replace it. After buying this Hisense 65U8N I’m glad that happened, all I can say is Wow!!! I am a movie fanatic and this TV does everything I would want a TV to do. The build quality and astetics are museum quality, features like a heavy metal adjustable hight center pedestal, 2.1.2 built in Atmos sound, minimalist bezel, metalic like backlit sleek remote. This TV is like having the best Cineplex in your living room, with Dolby Vision IQ and IMAX Enhanced I have the best 2 theater formats to utilize as well as HDR10 and HDR10+, all the bases are covered. No matter what movie i watch, I’m assured its going to look amazing. Speaking of looks, the black levels are amazing, I bought this set knowing it had 2000 diming zones and it really showcases that especially in dark scenes. This TV is bright, yes very bright, the contrast and colors are reference quality. This TV rivals my OLED in my bedroom with black levels, but has more color pop because of the brightness. I couldn’t recommend this TV more, the value for the quality and performance is there. Rival sets cost double the price, and I have piece of mind with a 2 year manufacturer warranty. If you are looking for what may be the best TV for 2024, especially for movie lovers, look at this Hisense.

Beats QN90D, Bravia 7, Qm8
I am absolutely BLOWN AWAY with how INCREDIBLE this TV is!!!! Long story short, I initially bought a TCL Q651G (underwhelmed), then a U6N (Not quite bright enough for my living room), then a QM7 (Screen defect), then a U7N (then the U8N 55" went down to $700), then a 65" U8N (realised the 55" only goes up to 1800 nits). Don't get me wrong, none of those options are bad by any means, but I need something I'm going to have for 2+ years and still say "wow" when I turn it on. Picture quality far exceeds anything Mini-Led from Samsung, LG, or Sony at the price point (and just beats out the QM851 for my preferences). First off, this TV is BRIGHT (3000+ nits!) and extremely colorful! Hisense's QLED technology makes them absolutely jump off the screen with how vivid, clear, accurate, and saturated they are. Blacks are 98% of OLED (though there is a small bit of blooming when extremely bright highlights are displayed on a black background) and stay BLACK! Image processing could be a bit better, but it's excellent for anyone who's not an absolute cinephile. For my tastes, the motion handling is very very good as well, I have zero complaints, though its not as good as an OLED (which is really the only thing that can beat this TV aside from the Bravia 9). One of my favorite aspects of this TV is its sound! The speakers are clear, loud, and deep! The built-in subwoofer gives it some real punch to the point where I don't even use my old Sony HTS-350 anymore. Yes, it sounds that good! Google TV is fast, intuitive, responsive, easy to use, and just a joy to use. If you don't like certain picture settings, it has multiple picture modes that can all be customised in a multitude of ways. SDR, HDR10, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and HLG are all supported. Gaming on the 65U8N is a DREAM! No input lag, fast response time, low latency... this TV has it all! In my opinion (and many others), this is a better television than ANY other at this price point! You'd have to spend north of $2,000 to beat it!
