Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the exceptional picture quality, impressive brightness, and amazing contrast with deep black levels offered by the 85" Class U8 Series TV. The TV also excels in Dolby Vision performance and provides fast refresh rates, enhancing the viewing and gaming experience. However, some customers have expressed concerns regarding the overall functionality and the weight of the TV, while others find the upscaling of lower-resolution content to be just acceptable.

    85 inch Hisense TV

    When I was looking to upgrade from my 65-inch Samsung TV to an 85-inch TV, I was inclined to stick with Samsung, as I have been a loyal consumer of their entertainment products for years. When I began researching the latest TVs on the market, I kept reading about how Hisense was highly rated, right behind Samsung and Sony for picture quality, but at a much better price point, so I decided to buy the U8. I must say it is far better than I expected, and the picture quality is fantastic. When it came time to order it, I of course went to BestBuy. They offered the best price, and I knew from past installations, Geek Squad would take care of me as well. The Geek Squad arrived on time; they installed the TV and even moved my old TV to a downstairs bedroom. Shoutout to those installers! When it comes to products, installation, price and convenience, there is only one place I choose to make my purchases, and I will remain a faithful BestBuy customer for the very reasons mentioned here.

    Needed to replace my main TV. I usually only buy Sony TV's. I knew Hisense is fast becoming a hit in the mini led field l. After a lot of research I went with the 85U8N. Wow, I am blown away with how good this TV. Being a TV snob I was a little nervous buying a TV that's not a higher end Sony. While the pricer Sony TV'S do have best in class processing, I could not ignore the $1600 difference between this TV and a comparable Sony . The 85U8N is quick to respond and had all the bells and whistles of the "big three' but and a much better price point. This TV will not disappoint.

    I bought this tv on sale for $1799, coming from 86" lg nano85. This tv is an enormous upgrade for visual, audio and ease of use. Took a little bit to set up because of google but not too difficult. Picture is very bright with great detail. Looks excellent with a ps5 hookup. I was looking to biy between the hisense u8 or tcl qm8 and i am very please with my purchase

    I like the TV as compared to OLED which is much more expensive. If you're picky, spend the money and go with LG OLED. It's def bright and the blacks still look great for a Mini LED. I haven't calibrated it but typically use my iPhone for comparison to get the colors as close as I can. PS5 looks great on 85". Worth the money if you can get it for around $1800 or save and go LG.

    An overall great value. Near-oled performance, plenty of configurability, and suited well for both traditional content consumption and gaming. Capable of getting painfully bright while maintaining deep blacks while minimizing backlight bleed so often plaguing local dimming LCDs. Google TV is fairly smooth and snappy; a marked improvement from previous Hisense TVs I've used. While it won't perform quantatively as well as more expensive OLED displays in per-pixel light control, response times, or viewing angles, 95%+ of the time it's perceptually right there with the best TVs on the market, despite being roughly half the price. I highly recommend it for all use cases as, again, the value proposition on offer here is borderline-unmatched!

    TV has a great picture quality. The interface for this TV is a bit glitchy and sluggish, but for the price it’s not bad. I bought an Apple TV so if you’re doing the same it’s not noticeable and it’s really good. I have a LG CX and the black levels are as close as it gets to being OLED. I highly recommend it especially if you’re going for 85+ inch tv, cause oleds that size are over priced.

    The TV is great and the picture looks amazing. The only problem was setting up the TV. The entire process took about 2 hrs. The TV stand is not the most user friendly and was complicated to put together. The TV was heavy and the TV stand is heave which made things even more difficult to set up. I suggest getting assistance to set up the TV because it is not a one person job.

    Hisense U8

    I knew basically nothing about Hisense previously, but I did do some reading prior to replacing our 65" Sony. I'd been fairly faithful to Sony and Samsung, but after experiencing issues with the Sony (constant OS freezing), and knowing Sony did not actually manufacture their on screens. Decided to give this a try. So far, everything had been exceptional. Picture, dark scene contrast, and especially sound without soundbar are far superior to the Sony, which, although 0" smaller, was also quite a bit pricier.

    Picture is great compared to what i upgraded from but still expected a little more. A bit laggy too when turning off, on or simply just scrolling. Its a good price for what you get in my opinion in the end. Also on the display in store it said it did not have apple airplay but it actually did. So big plus. Big and Bright for sure.

    I believed the reviews from the Consumer Electronics show, and they were right: maybe the best ever at this price point. The Best Buy sales staff tried to steer me to other brands, which I already have installed. I explained that I was only there to buy this new experience. The Naples Best Buy certainly charged more for the delivery and installation than I’ve recently paid at the Asheville BB, but US$ is falling and ….

    Great TV for the price! I really enjoyed this TV. I opted for the Sony Bravia 9 85” instead of keeping this Hisense U8N 85” TV because of my curious mind needing to know how much better a Sony Bravia 9 is. Honestly, now that I’ve owned the Bravia 9, I can confidently say, I would have been totally happy with the Hisense U8N 75”. I can’t speak to longevity but it less than half the amount of a Sony Bravia 9.

    This was one of my best buys of 2025. I truly feel like I have a private movie theater in my living room. The image is fantastic, especially considering the size. The operating system is very quick and the navigation platform is very well organized. The remote control is also pretty cool. I highly recommend.

    Once you calibrate it, you can't go wrong. The only gripe I have is now I want a home theater but need to be a millionaire. Got the 85 and it seems like too much at first, but if you know view distances it'll be an easy decision. Only super technical people will point out not t pics like " that's not true black" but they're also the people that ruin jokes by saying "well actually". And the built in speaker is crazy good.

    Hisense 85” Great TV and Value

    This TV has amazing clarity, color and vibrant. I purchased an 85” for my upstairs loft area. It is amazing and worth every penny if you watch sports or series tv. My recommendation is to have it professionally installed since the tv weighs over 100 lbs. At the time of my purchase Best Buy was running a $99 special for installation. Well worth it.

    This tv has the best audio that I've heard in recent memory. Most sets need an additional soundbar to hear dialog clearly but this tv has crystal clear sound. Not only is the sound incredible, the colors are vibrant and the images are sharp. This set rivals my older OLED tv that I have. All I can say is WOW - this is a ridiculous value!

    I had purchased a TCL 85 inch TV which I returned because I couldn’t get the colors to look any better than washed out. That might have been my fault. However, I traded it in for the Hisense U8N and couldn’t be happier. The colors were crisp, the flesh tones were good, and you need very little adjustment. I highly recommend.

    This tv is fantastic in every way. The screen is bright and it does a good job of limiting any reflection we have from surrounding lights. The colors are vibrant. I love watching sports in it and my family loves it for movie nights. And if you are considering a high-mid to high end LED tv I don’t think you could find a better one for the price.

    The only thing that keeps this big TV from 5 stars is its not very well calibrated out the box at least compared to past TVs I have owned so you will have to do a good deal of tinkering with it to get the picture you want for what you view the most. Once its dialed in its excellent. The guys who delivered and set it up on the wall were great. I do suggest getting an extended geek squad warranty with this large tv 85". Its not like you can just throw it in the back of your car and return it if you have issues....you will want to have that geek squad warranty.
