Hisense - 85" Class U6 Pro MiniLED QLED UHD 4K HDR Glare-Free Smart Fire TV with Alexa+ (2026)

Excellent TV for the price! The Mini-LED picture is bright, sharp and full of vibrant colors with impressive contrast and deep blacks. 4K movies, sports, and gaming look fantastic, and the high refresh rate keeps motion smooth. Setup was quick and the smart interface is easy to use. Overall, a great premium-feeling TV without the premium price - I’d definitely recommend it!

This TV has changed watching movies or shows. The clarity is absolutely amazing! Great sound and the anti-glare screen help watching during the day.

This unit replaces as 75-inch Sony Bravia purchased 2021 that was installed in the arcade as the centerpiece of the console gaming center. The Sony was fine, __ until __ a friend staying the night and dragged a duvet / comforter out of the room that snagged on a KEF LS-50 Meta sand filled speaker base, _and_ cracked the Sony and spider webbed across the vertical and horizontal impact zone. While not perfect (it was 2021 after all) I thought that image was quite decent and had compliments on that 75-inch over the side-by-side 65-inch Sony. I guess now in retrospect I was never content with DirecTV HLG+ HDR Content which somewhat muted the colors on 4k broadcasts. Well all that has changed, quite dramatically with the addition / replacement of this 85-inch Hisense U6 Pro Mini-LED. The HDR is night-and-day difference, esp comp to the Sony 75 it replaced, though UPSCALING lower-resolution sources do not stack up. The POP and PUNCH and color accuracy (red is red, NOT light orange, … green is green, NOT lime) can NOT be understated, ON 4k SOURCES. If this is entry level Mini-LED I can not even imagine what the U7, U8 or U9 offer., nor do I wish to tempt myself if I’m being honest bc the images thrown by this are surreal and satisfying. 4k from Apple TV looks great, and 4k, 8k, 16k YouTube clips look better on this set than the 130-inch image thrown by a JVC NZ7 projector costing 8-10x as much. Dare I say, at the risk of getting flamed;…, the 85-inch screen size, is _almost_ too big, granted our arcade is quite small and cramped, so viewing distance is a mere 6 feet from the screen. Playing Forza Horizon 6 sitting that close is visually stunning, borderline over-stimulating. In a standard living room where 12-15 foot viewing distance it is nowhere near as overwhelming. I will say my main living room display is an LG OLED 83 that is consistently smoother, with far better upscaling and deeper black levels, and probably if monitored on calibration gear more accurate than the U6 Pro which for gaming I (cough cough) actually do leave it on Vivid mode which I realize should revoke my home theater dude card. Likewise, this set has a surprisingly respectable audio system, with built-in subwoofer, though no self-respecting HT nerd uses TV speakers now that incredible soundbars like the JBL 1300Mk2 is available (reviewed recently and still impressed) and dedicated surround sound AVRs are more affordable than ever. Full retail price of this 85-inch at $2k is reasonable, but it is often on sale for $700 to $800 less than that, making it an incredible bargain. PROS +HUGE upgrade over edge-lit displays +Native 144 hertz VRR gaming mode +AMD FreeSync +Ultra low-latency +auto-sense Game Mode +anti-glare limits reflections +Dolby Atmos with built-in subwoofer +2500 Pantone colors (certified) +AI Light sensor (auto brightness) CONS -the menu “click” sound feels odd, disconnected and delayed -poor “AI upscaling” processor, esp on 720p and 1080p sources, -don’t be fooled by $1999 retail, while street is closer to $1200 CONCLUSION Do yourself a favor and ask yourself what you want in a TV. If it’s Big and Bright 85-inch on a budget, WITH 4k video sources (Apple TV, 4k UHD discs, Zidoo, YouTube) then go for it. If it’s lower-resolution TV feeds, cable or DirecTV 720p / 1080p feeds, you are likely to be disappointed by the pixelation unless your seating arrangement is 10-15 feet away. My tight space arrangement has me 6 feet away where the degradation of quality is exaggerated. RECOMMEND Buy if you want budget 2026 MiniLED technology, decent blacks (better than LED, but NOT near OLED blacks) with a BIG Bright picture. If PQ is of utmost importance, OR you watch some lower-resolution sources (Cable/Sat/Blueray) then pass on this and just get OLED, MiniRGB, or SQLED.

The biggest standout for me with this 85-inch Hisense is how well it works with my PS5 Pro. Games look great on a screen this size, especially when there’s a lot happening at once. It’s easier to appreciate the details in the environment, and the bigger picture makes games feel more immersive. The jump to 85 inches is something I notice every time I sit down to play. I’m also glad it supports the PS5 Pro features I was looking for. You get 4K at 120Hz in compatible games, HDR, variable refresh rate, and automatic low-latency mode. Fast-paced games feel smooth and responsive, and HDR helps bright highlights stand out in games that support it. I also like that the TV can switch to its low-latency mode automatically when I start playing. It’s one less setting to think about when I go from streaming a show to playing a game. For such a big TV, the setup was straightforward. The Fire TV menus are easy to navigate, and I like that the remote has plenty of controls without being hard to use. I can get to the settings, switch inputs, or open a streaming app without digging through menus. That matters to me because I use the TV for more than gaming, and it’s nice when the everyday stuff is simple. The price was what made this such a good buy for me. I wanted a big screen that would make the most of my PS5 Pro and still be easy to use for movies and streaming. This TV checked those boxes, and I’m happy with the picture quality and gaming features I got for the money. If you’re looking for an 85-inch TV to pair with a PS5 Pro, I’d recommend this one. I’d buy it again.

Love this television, great picture and sound! Would recommend it to anyone wanting a large tv experience with high quality viewing, great resolution and again no need for a sound bar.
