Hisense 100u8k impressive!

I’ve been shopping for months for an oversized TV for my new theater room. I’ve had Samsungs for years with very good luck (no issues whatsoever) and was leaning hard on the 98” QLED. The prices kept fluctuating but even at the lowest point I thought it was too high. Started reading reviews and watching You Tube videos on the Hisense and got my curiosity up. While I’ve had some issues with Best Buy in the past, they had the best deal going for price and delivery (free). So, I decided to take a chance and ordered the Hisense. I scheduled a delivery appointment and got repeated updates. I really was expecting a message that the TV was unavailable or there were delivery issues. I found the rear mounting hole locations online and hung the wall mount myself. I prefer doing most if not all of the install myself minus the lifting. Tristan from the Geek Squad called me the day before delivery and provided the install window. I told him the wall mount was already up and they just needed to unbox the set, mount the rear mounts and lift it onto the mount. I’ll do everything else myself. He initially said it was delivery only but said we’ll figure it out upon arrival. Tristan called me the day of delivery when they were en route and showed up right on time. Both Tristan and Anthony was awesome to work with. Very knowledgeable, which really surprised me, friendly and professional. We did a walk-through of the install and Tristan checked my wall mount install. My house is single story with no stairs so moving the TV inside was simple. They unboxed it, put the mounts on and hung it. They commented that the height was perfect. We checked for level and they plugged in the power cable (I already had high outlets), the HDMI and the Cat 6 cables that I previously installed. Even provided a right angle power cable adaptor to provide more room behind the set. With very few minor adjustments the TV looks phenomenal. Colors are extremely vibrant and the clarity excellent. EARC switching is very fast and flawless. The Google OS is also much quicker and smoother than my Samsungs. Overall, I’m extremely impressed with this TV. Build quality is also very good. The only complaint is the remote is pretty basic and cheap. Works fine just could be better. I ordered a better silver replacement online for around $20. The delivery from the Geek Squad guys was well beyond my expectations. Really, really surprised me and that’s hard to do. Maybe they’re an exception but they did a great job. I even called their supervisor and commended them which I never do. Like I previously stated, I’ve had some issues with Best Buy before but this transaction changed my opinion. I’d certainly recommend this Best Buy/Geek Squad team to my family and friends. Well done,

I got this TV on on the Black Friday sale for 2999.
The thing is gigantic it was so well packaged. I think I’m gonna spend several more hours just breaking down the whole box but it’s worth it lol.
I got a wall mounted yesterday I went with a non-articulating or tilting mount since I wanted it to be very close to the wall. The TV is 3 1/2 inches thick so if you put it we have to walk by like down a hallway, that’s something to consider.
I have to say I’m amazed at the quality of the picture. I also hooked up my RTX 3070 powered computer to it and it’s amazing. The HDR settings are fantastic.
I’ve only had it for one day, but so far I am loving this TV. Make sure you have three people like it recommends. If you’re going to wall mount it. It was not a big deal and I taped all the cables to the back of the TV before hanging since you can’t get to then with the mount I used. No big deal…plan ahead.
Don’t hesitate if this goes on sale again….its awesome !

Amazing brightness and resolution for a 100" TV

I was skeptical about a 100 inch TV having the resolution and the brightness to be able to work in my family room next too my sliding glass door with the Arizona sun beaming in on it but this TV easily works in this environment. The TV auto-adjusts for the sunlight when it hits it and I can stand 5 feet from the screen and not notice any degradation in the picture quality.
I know there are other 100 inch TVs out there that feature the mini-LEDs which is the basis of this TVs amazing resolution but they are two times the cost of this TV.
If you are looking for the best value for a TV this size look no further, the Hisense will not disappoint.

We knew we wanted to upgrade for our theatre room and I did a lot of research until I landed on this. It's been exactly what we wanted - bright, colorful, beautiful and BIG. Install was a bit of a headache thanks to miscommunication from the Best Buy side, but they worked through it with us so even though we prefer not to have the extra hassle, kudos to the team for a quick resolution. We need to add some lights behind it, but overall, highly recommend.

So far the tv has been nothing short of amazing. It checks all the boxes from size and performance so far. Having already owned a 65 inch version it didnt take any time to swt up to the television to my liking. It has still been a short time having the television so i cant just yet give five stars as anything could happen but overall I am satisfied with my purchase and installation through Bestbuy.

Good bye Samsung! I was once a LG & Samsung only customer, then my main LG TV had some power board issues and I became a devout Samsung customer for over 10 years! I bought this 100" Hisense to replace an 82" Samsung. The setup, although a little different, was straight forward and quick. The picture is fantastic! I love this TV!! Next on my list... I need to replace 4 TV's for a video wall in my theater room, and now shopping for 4 @ 72" Hisensens Mini-LED QLED TV's. I will let you know how they are once I get them and get some viewing time in.

Picture quality is great for the size I do own a Samsung 85 inch q90b that I replace this with I got to say the picture quality is not as good but pretty close although when I bought the Samsung it is the top of the line and I paid more money for it. I do admit watching the Hisense at this size is more enjoyable

This review is on 100’ Hisense U8 Goliath of a mini led screen. Coming from an avid Sony enthusiast taking a leap of faith took me some time to decide on another brand. Let’s start off with how the TV is packaged in a crate to ensure delivery is made with no damage to the screen. Excellent packaging A+. Let’s move to the size of this mammoth. This TV is immersive and totally makes you feel captivated almost theater like. Size benefits this screen when it is getting a great picture quality source but when it does not get good signal the size of the screen exposes low quality image and gives the screen a cheap image look. Color quality is definitely not what you get out of a Sony but let’s take into consideration our price point for the unit. The colors on the tv are not top tier but absolutely acceptable. Lastly is biggest criticism on the unit. The internal media player is a C- at best. So much so I had to purchase an apple 4K to decide to keep the tv. I was having an issue with sports watching and latency glitches. At first I thought it was my WiFi internet connection but after hard wiring the tv I quickly eliminated that possibility. Decided to give it one last try with the Apple TV and it solved the sports glitch problem. I would guess to say the processor could not process the motion movement in the picture. Overall a great purchase for price. Happy with my Tv I’ve had it for 45 days now. If it was not for the sports glitch I would give it 5 stars. 4 stars due to this and perhaps it can be corrected with a software update.

I found this television on sale at best buy and could not pas up the price for this size television. I didn't know much about Hisense but took the chance after reading good reviews about this tv. It has GREATLY exceeded my expectations! The picture quality, brightness, blacks, and gaming on it is amazing! So much better than my neighbors 4k projector and less expensive! I have had it a year and a half now with no problems.

Avid Sony OLED User - Do NOT second guess this tv

As a fanboy of Sony Bravia OLEDs, I was extremely wary of purchasing this TV, but sinply couldnt pass up the opprtunity for a 100” TV. Let me tell you, dont second guess this purchase. The colors are extremely bright and blackness levels are the best ive seen non OLED. For me the biggest difference is the “3D” like effect my Sony OLED provides, but this TV is crisp and bright with a fantastic refresh rate, making sports look incredible. I went back and forth between this and an 85” OLED and trust me, go with this. Pictures do not do this justice. The effect of this TV filling the room surpasses the 3D like effect an OLED provides. Well worth the purchase and very happy with this TV. The picture shows the size difference between the 65” it is replacing.

Delivered/Installed Damaged

I recently purchased this TV and it was installed by a 3rd party Best Buy contracted for installations. The TV itself is actually pretty amazing. It surpassed my expectations. However, when I went to hook all of my devices up, I noticed that HDMI4, one of only two 120Hz ports, was delivered damaged. I've contact BB both via phone and chat and got the same answer both times: It's out of stock, we can give you 10% off of a different TV. I'm hoping it gets back in stock to replace the faulty unit or else I'm going to have to return it when it gets close to my 60-day return limit. I'd rather have the TV, unblemished, than go thru any of that. It kind of defeats the purpose of having a PS5/XBox Series X with only 60Hz HDMI ports available.

First month in and no issues so far. Hisense often gets a bad reputation for quality control, but I got a good unit. The picture is amazing, and there are plenty of settings to customize the colors exactly how you want them. Choosing 100 inches was the best decision ever. This thing is massive and incredibly immersive. I also want to thank the three Geek Squad agents who helped bring it upstairs.

I Kinda Can't Believe This Thing Exists

There is no way to review this TV without talking about value. I paid $2999 for a 100" TV that ticks all of the feature boxes. That's amazing.
The picture quality is terrific. It's bright, colorful, and handles high quality 4k content like a dream. For a screen this large, I love how detailed everything still is. It's also a great gaming tv, with fast response and easily recognizes consoles and PC, activating VRR and high refresh rates.
Some cons? Sure. The picture is not quite as good as my 83" LG C3. I mean, that's to be expected I guess. Plus the LG was actually more money than the Hisense. If you truly want an OLED, get one. They're great!
Also, the remote is...functional, I guess?
Lower bitrate content is ok, but not up to the standard of Sony or LG. Might not be the best choice if all you watch is sports.
Viewing angles are fine, but not the best so set your room up accordingly.
There, that's all the bad stuff, now buy one. You'll be very happy.

Extremely Disappointed With Best Buy Wesley Chapel

I purchased the Hisense 100-inch TV from Best Buy Wesley Chapel with paid delivery and installation. The TV was delivered, but not installed—leaving a massive box in my living room, too heavy to move or set up myself. I was never told installation wasn't included. Repeated calls to the store always sent me to a call center overseas, where no help was provided, and I could not reach anyone at the actual store. I eventually had to pay for separate installation.
Once installed I noticed The TV itself has issues: the bottom of the screen is wavy due to separation from the bezel (from packaging) as it's in two places where the Styrofoam cradle holds the the upright when unboxing and allowing stand to be installed. Also, it frequently crashes or loses connection even on built-in apps, and randomly turns itself on. I have a top of the line Sony AVR az7000es running eARC from it with high end cables, and Nvidia Shield Pro for external streaming and this tv simple refuses to enjoy the quality. The eARC stutters at times and tries to revert the sound back to the TV speakers even though I have it set via eARC hdmi back to AVR. I left multiple requests for help, but no one ever called me back. Support has been non-existent. I have called the store at least 20 times in the 2 weeks I've owned the TV, and not once did a store member pick up.
For over $3,000, this is unacceptable, and as a customer of best buy where I spent other money, it certainly appears they want to just push sales.
The picture quality is fantastic, but with audio issues, likely being processor issues, poor package method, and the quality control and support from best buy being non existent, I cannot recommend this TV or this retailer. I have filed a credit card dispute as my last resort to, what is now basically wall art. All I asked for was them to deliver another TV, take this one back, and install the new one as agreed upon purchase! India call support, despite the tv being defective, explained that I would now have to pay a delivery charge since it was already delivered, an installation charge since it was installed (not by them), and a removal charge! This experience is unreal, and they just lost a customer. If you are monitoring these reviews, you know what you need to do to make this right not so bestbuy!

I have gone through many other brands of 98” televisions which all had issues or were just subpar. This is my first time purchasing a Hisense and I’m beyond pleased. It’s advertised as 1500 nits but it’s definitely way way more which I like that they put a conservative number but ya it’s one of the brightest tv’s I’ve seen, no over saturation everything is so detailed. Buttery smooth OS. I definitely recommend this 100” beauty of a television.

To say this TV is amazing is an understatement. this TV is truly breathtaking. this TV have many different features that will blow your way. one of my favorite features is the game mode that it provides. the game mode allows you to activate features like FPS viewing that is your frames per second while playing the game, and other cool features like high refresh rate mode. this TV also has 144Hz. on the other hand, this TV is great for watching movies and anime. having the privilege to watch your favorite anime in 4k is breathtaking. overall I am very happy with my Hisense 100u8k 100 inch television.
