    The U8N from Hisense is the perfect gaming TV I have the PS5 and the Xbox series X and they both look beautiful on this TV this is as close to OLED as you can get without the price plus Best Buy had a great price (Gave back a LG C4 OLED to get this TV)

    No need to get a sound bar with this tv! The tv has biult in subwoofer with amazing clear dialogue and sound. Also can run up too 120HZ for gaming, runs awesome at 4k for games like Black Op 6, rainbow six siege, god of war, god of war ragnorok, and more

    Wonderful picture quality, along with sound that really surprised. I had a Bose soundbar that I was using with my previous tv, and that is no longer needed! First time using the Google OS on a tv and it works very smoothly. TV has been great for gaming. The 120hz looks beautiful in the games that support it. Overall very happy with the purchase!

    Our old TV was not functioning properly, so I shopped at Best Buy and other competitors "great deals" for several months before making my purchase, the reason for the long search wasn't important but just was not able to buy at the beginning. The 55" Hisense really produces a fantastic picture, the sales guys at Best Buy were VERY helpful, courteous never pushy and helped with every detail even carrying the large screen to my VERY small car. With the sound bar my wife now has a chance to hear TV better as she has hearing devices and has struggled with that. Great help, Thank you AGAIN Best Buy

    The U8N, is an amazing TV with deep black levels that almost rival OLED. And the sound from this TV is top notch. Great sound on the low end as well due to subwoofer in the back. This TV is replacing a U8K also by Hisense.

    My 2ND HISENSE U8 Series 4K TV, Better Than Ever

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Purchased as replacement for original Hisense U8H purchased in December 2022. First TV failed after 18 months and HISENSE honored 2 year warranty by reimbursing full original cost plus tax. My new 55" U8N is even better than the U8H model, which was impressive. It took about 2 weeks to understand and tweak the settings, but was worth the time spent in understanding the power/performance under the hood of this set. (It was like upgrading from an in-line "6" car engine to a V-8.) The pricing makes this an especially good value for the performance received. The audio with the solid state sub-woofer is icing on the cake and negates my need for a soundbar. The new remote with button backlighting is also a plus.

    Hi, I have a very good Hisense H9F , that has great picture, with great blacks, that was calibrated by Geek Squad, wanting to move that TV into our bedroom, read many reviews, saying it almost competes with OLEDs, got a excellent deal on Black Friday, unfortunately when you first turn it on, it will turn itself off, sometimes during the day as well, talked with EVERYONE, ending up replacing 3 times, unfortunately same issue, I feel, it has something to do with HDMI CEC, with HDMI 2.1, not playing nice with my setup, too bad, picture quality was excellent, had to go with another brand.

    Excellent picture, dark blacks and extremely bright. It's a little thicker than some tvs but doesn't really matter to me. Reviews say the sound is great for TV sound but I use a hike theater system. Great for the price especially on sale

    Overall, the Hisense 55" U8 Series Mini-LED 4K UHD QLED Smart Google TV stands out for its exceptional picture quality, modern design, and smart capabilities. While the sound could be improved, its strengths make it a fantastic choice for both casual viewers and avid gamers. If you’re looking for a high-quality display with advanced features, this model is worth considering.

    Should have bought a Sony......

    This TV is okay, but it is not as nice to use as my Sony. I regret buying this instead of a lower end sony for the bedrooms. The Google TV interface is not as nice as the Sony version and the brightness on the TV is annoying. For some reason the screen blinks completely on and off when on YouTube/Netflix through the TV interface - and switches between low and high brightness. However, if I use a roku box this doesn't happen. I have tried every setting and also have factory reset the TV. There are also these amber LEDs at the bottom of the screen that stay on if you mute the integrated mic. I was able to make them turn off if the TV is off but sometimes they'll randomly come on in the middle of the night. Overall it has a nice picture, but I highly regret buying this brand.

    I bought this because of all the rave reviews , but frankly I am not impressed with the picture quality and IMO does not live up to the hype even after I tried calibrating the settings according to rtings.com . I find the colors washed out , everything just too bright , way too much blue. I will say that the google side is awesome , very fast. tv channels over the air are buggy , and the auto find of over the air channels are sketchy all in all I am starting to have buyers remorse The sound is where this tv shines no sound bar needed

    Love this TV. Great value for the price. Had issues with it randomly turning on at night, but after some research and a few setting changes I was able to fix that problem. Also every once in a while it disconnects from my soundbar, and I need to power cycle both the TV and the soundbar to get it to connect again. The guide for the antenna TV is a bit odd, as it only seems to update after a turn to each channel. Overall, I consider these minor issues as it is has a tremendous picture.
