Customer Ratings & Reviews

I couldn't be happier with my Hisense 8u model tv. From the moment I turned it on, I was blown away by the picture quality- vibrant colors, blacks, and incredibly sharp detail. Whether I'm watching movies, sports, or gaming, everything looks stunning. The 120hz refresh rate makes motion buttery smooth, and the HDR performance brings scenes to life in a way that rivals more expensive brands. Plus its great for my video wall setup.

I purchased this TV because my townhouse has a south view with a lot of windows and high ceilings. My formal TV and other 55 inch was not set up to handle bright lights is good. I no longer to watch a sporting event during the day have to draw the blinds or anything else. The pictures is outstanding. I've had it a little over a month as far as it goes now I would recommend anybody to buy one.

This tv is simply awesome. Beautiful picture that I’ll say is nearly identical to watching something on a oled screen. Sound is awesome too cause of the built in subwoofer on the back of tv. It is also the fastest google tv I have experienced. Very responsive. Highly recommend this tv.

The U8 is one impressive tv! Had it for a few weeks now. Colors are deep and vibrant. Off axis viewing is virtually the same as straight on viewing. The Google interface is easy to navigate, and the remote is laid out well, and is also back lit. A great feature for a dark room viewing experience. Built in multi speakers, w sub sounds very good, although we use the tv in a home theater setup, so don’t have the built in speakers activated. We have an LG Oled in another family room and honestly the U8 compares very closely. The U8 is one the brightest TVs w nits close to 5000! Great for rooms with a lot of light. Not to mention the huge difference in $ compared to what a Oled costs. The U8 also comes with a 2 year warranty which is pretty rare with most other brands. If you search best TVs for 2025, the U8 is listed on most quality testers lists Highly recommended!

Excellent TV. There a lot of options for gaming. The best one in my opinion was the AI super resolution option. It made games looks quite a bit sharper without adding any input lag or any negative effects in regards to gaming (response times, etc). It reminds me of Nvidia's DLSS or Intel's XeSS, except it was built into the TV, so every game benefited from this option. I feel like these options are usually gimmicks on TVs, but this one was actually pretty cool! Also, this TV supports 4K 165hz, which is pretty much overkill, but hey, why not right? ***The major caveat to be aware of with this TV is that the 55" version has an ADS Panel instead of a VA. This means it will be more responsive for gaming and have better viewing angles. However, the contrast ratio (mainly how black the screen looks, especially in a dark room) won't be as good as a VA panel. So, just keep that in mind when purchasing this TV. In my opinion, the contrast on this 55" was actually very good for a non-VA panel. This is because there are a ton of dimming zones on this TV, which greatly reduced blooming/clouding and greatly increased the contrast ratio to almost as good as a VA panel. So in my opinion, if you mainly game, I'd go for the 55" U8JG. If you mainly consume media & movies, you'll probably want the 65" or larger for the better contrast. That's just my opinion though! I think either way, you can't go wrong. It's a great TV regardless!

So far so good. The sales guy in store told me I would need a sound bar for decent sound quality. That is definitely NOT the case. The sound is perfect for a small room for someone who wants good clear soundbar quality sound. The built in subwoofers even rumble our couch. Very impressed! Picture quality is comparable to a $2K TV. It is very bright though to where we needed to turn down the brightness at night cause it was hurting our eyes. I'm still tinkering with the settings (there are SO many for sound and picture). For those with kids Disney movies are AMAZING. We watched Moana and I swear it looked 3D. Overall great buy. This was our first Hisense and I think we are lifelong customers. Goodbye Samsung (sorry).

Nice 55” TV - platform was a little bothersome, but managed okay - very heavy TV - picture and color are great

Great tv - the picture is amazing and the sound. Playing video games on it is absolutely incredible.

I reviewed tv’s diligently before making my purchase. Looking for the best picture and best gaming experience without breaking the bank. I must say this tv have exceeded my expectations.

Finally stepped into 2025 technology with the Hisense 55" U8 smart Google TV and glad I did! I did not know Hisense before seeing it at Best Buy but after research, decided it was right for me. The picture on the TV is so clear. I also switched from cable to streaming and it's amazing the details which I can see. Another plus is that with my compatible Pixel cell phone, there are additional benefits such as showing my photos from phone onto the big screen with a simple command on phone.

When deciding to purchase a new TV, Hisense was not a brand on the list - LG and Samsung were the brands I was considering. After arriving at Best Buy, I met a Hisense rep who showed me the LG and Samsung options and then showed me the Hisense U8. I was surprised at the quality of the picture and the overall look of the TV and what really sold me was the warranty - 2 years. This is twice as long as the other brands we were looking at and tells me that Hisense believes in their product. Now a week later, we are still very happy with the quality of the picture, the build of the TV, and its overall operation. We will have Hisense on our purchase research list for other products in the future.

I got the 55" to be my new pc display and it's an absolute winner. This thing looks almost as good as an OLED and it's way brighter, and the color accuracy is very very good when calibrated. Out of the box or needs some tweaking, but if you're not into editing photos or dealing with tasks thar require color accuracy, om the out of box settings are very decent. The built in speakers are fancier than most built ins but they're still outclassed by just about any soundbar you could attach.

It's actually quite good for what it is. I didn't want an OLED high dollar newest tech TV. Just something to step up from the "4k tv from 5 years ago. Its fast, responsive, streams well from the PC.

For the price point, this is an amazing TV. I purchased a Samsung 2 years ago for slightly less that gets absolutley destroyed in every way by this TV. This is the best sounding TV I think I have ever owned, let alone heard. Sure, it is thick compared to most modern TVs but the sound quality makes it totally acceptable to me. Gaming with my PS5 looks fantastic! Even over-the-air stations look impressive. I do not regret purchasing this TV one bit.

Amazing picture. The built in Google TV is more responsive and less buggy than my external Chromecast.

Set up easy. Very bright screen. Needs some contrast adjustment but overall good picture and performance. Should work good in my bright room.

I chose this TV based on RTINGS review which showed it being a good choice for a bright room. I put this in my parent's living room which has large glass doors and windows. With peak brightness hitting up to 5500nits it has no issues with fighting reflections. I'm surprised by the local dimming zone performance and black levels. I used the beginning training room sequence in Tron Ares as a test. I'm used to my LG C1 OLED so I know how good black level contrast can look. It's awesome that we can get such good TVs for such low prices now.

Great television, super clear and responsive picture

Great TV. Good color, brightness is really good. A bit chunky and heavy but well designed. Speakers are ok.

I already have a Sony bravia 7 in my bedroom but I wanted something cheap for my living room that's really bright. So when I set this one up I was extremely pleased that even if all the light are on or the sun is pouring into the room I'm still able to see everything clearly. I will say you might have to mess around with the color settings a little bit, other than that I was surprised by the sound quality from this tv. You still might want a sound bar but for TV speakers they get the job done
