A:AnswerYes. It came with one remote that works with our dish. We ordered a second one exactly like the one that came with it. It does have voice to search for shows.

A:AnswerHi Hisense Customer, The Hisense 55U8K features a single optical output. Users have the option to connect it using a compatible optical splitter. However, it's important to note that digital audio splitters commonly result in signal attenuation. This occurs because the male end adapter, typically equipped with 4 strands of fibers, splits into 2 strands of fibers for each female adapter. For a more immersive surround sound experience, we recommend connecting the TV directly to a stereo receiver. If you have any further questions or concerns, please give us a call at 1-888-935-8880 or email us at Service@Hisense-usa.com. Thanks again, Harley with the Hisense Support Team.
A:AnswerHi Joe, thank you for your interest in the Hisense 55U8K. Please contact BestBuy for information regarding their delivery and installation services. Thanks again, Harley with the Hisense Support Team.
A:AnswerIt depends on the source device. HDMI 2.1 devices generally require the 48GBPS cable for full feature support, like 4k/120 with HDR video and varible refresh rate. 18GBPS cables can support 4k/120 without HDR and 4k/60 with HDR.
Series X, PS5, computer with a recent AMD, Intel, or NVidia GPU, home theater receiver with HDMI 2.1 4k/120 or 8k/60 support, or Apple TV 4k generation 3? Get the 48GBPS cable and use HDMI 3 or 4.
A:AnswerHi ADWIZARD, thank you for your interest in the Hisense 55U8K. We're sorry to hear that your TV is turning off on it's own. Please ensure that the sleep timer is not set. Using your Hisense remote, go to Settings > System > Power & Energy > Power & Energy Saving > Sleep Timer. If this troubleshooting tip does not fix the issue, please reach out directly to our support team at 1-888-935-8880 or email us at Service@Hisense-usa.com. Thanks again, Harley with the Hisense Support Team.
A:AnswerYes, I use this TV on a covered patio that receives partial sun and I am able to view sports and movies without any visibility issues. Other TVs that I have will not work on the patio, this TV is bright.
A:AnswerYes! I was surprised that it was better than cable, which I got rid of 18 months ago, and better than some streaming venues such as Hulu Plus Live. I compared live shows and sports with both on same networks and a button press away. The over the air broadcasts for the most part were superior. Regular streaming of movies, etc were better on all, but Hulu Plus Live was not quite the same with live broadcasts. I think the best goto is in settings use "Daytime Theater" mode for best all around, without tinkering too much.
A:AnswerWhen you're going through the TV setup, you have the option of not enabling the built-in Google Assistant far-field microphone system (also known as hands-free). Android TV also allows you to completely disable all microphone access within the OS.
