Such a useful review man, a lot of great information very well explained, keep up the good work!!
Thanks for the detailed review, i appreciate it. I replaced my failing 55" 2016 Samsung KS8500 that I bought for $970 after seeing how close this got in performance.
I just picked up this Quantum Dot 4K ULED 58” for 42% off of $599.99 at 379.99 I’m pretty confident I got a good deal on it but to be honest with you I wasn’t really on a budget and I really wanted a better more vivid picture than my current 65” UHD. Do you think this TV I have on the way will be noticeably nicer than my TCL UHD TV?
Just to update, this tv looks better than the ks8500 that it replaced, and I got it for $350. The local dimming has its limits but it's surprisingly good. I was shocked at how great Life of Pi 4k UHD blu-ray looked, it never looked as good on my previous edge lit tv. Also, the built in firetv os has been quite nice and I rarely use my roku ultra anymore.
My biggest pain point was moving over from the Samsung One Connect box, which meant running only the one large cable into my in wall pass-through. I had to buy four new long hdmi cables, pull them through the pass-through, and zip tie them all to the mantelmount frame for a tidy look. I'm using ARC port 1 to feed audio to the soundbar mounted to the frame with the TV.
love the review.. I'm on the fence with replacing the old family room TV (vizio e55-c2)... the gaming TV is somewhere else and this one is just meant for causal stuff (morning news, background noise, etc.)
I bought and returned this tv because despite having many picture adjustment options, the one it absolutely lacked - or at least I couldn’t find it ANYWHERE - was ANY ability to turn off the motion smoothing to get rid of the soap opera effect. Other Hisense models seem to be able to but not this one. Watching a movie looks like a daytime soap opera almost. Horrible.
The moment I walk into a persons house and I see they have that ridiculous effect on their TV…no matter the relationship, I immediately think differently of them.
WTF is up with that motion smoothing and why the f^ck is it even a thing on TV’s? It makes every show/movie look terrible.
Because these are 60 and 120 panels playing 24fps movies it’s very necessary
@@Twelvegoldteeth Agreed
@@TechSteve can this soap opera be taken off?
I’m trying to decide whether to keep mine, a 58” model bought during Prime Day, for the same reason.
I can’t notice any soap opera effect from excessive interpolation on either of the discs I tried with (Charade for a very well preserved filmic look; John Wick for a recent film with a lot of motion), which leads me to wonder if a) interpolation is only on when the Game picture mode is selected, and/or b) if this- like some other Hisense models- uses black frame insertion, which I’m much more fine with. It’s frustrating that between the manual, Hisense’s site and Amazon’s listing there’s no useful information about what kind of motion smoothing technology the TV actually uses!
Great review! If you have an AMD graphics card, the TV supports AMD FreeSync so that benefits PC players, too.
Free sync works on Nvidia as well through display port
@@playsamay4 It does? That's great! So that means both AMD and Nvidia GPU owners can take advantage of AMD FreeSync with this TV. 🤩
Hey Steve great to see you made a follow up video! I saw your picture settings for HDR video, but what about for PS5 HDR gaming? Or for Dolby Vision? I did go to your U6H one but those settings don’t apply to this version. Thanks in advance!!
I just ordered this from Amazon. It’s on sale can’t beat the price. For me Iam not looking for the best picture and sound but for the price it will do. My Samsung 50inch blew out several months ago. That tv I bought in 2015-2016. So this model would be better in pic quality. From the review the pic looks great especially for the price. For me this will be a knock around and in btwn tv until I get my entertainment center ready for my room. I can see already that I will like the tv.
how much was it? the 58" is 350 rn. im thinkin about it
I've got a Vizio D55-F2 and it is not very bright, even with the backlight maxxed out. I'm actually looking for more of a large screen computer monitor. Amazon has this Hisense 58U6HF for only 350 USD right now, and beyond that Amazon is offering their Amazon Pay option (not a credit card of any kind) dividing the payments into 29.17 a month for 12 months. The first month plus the total tax is due at shipment. It almost makes me think that there is more wrong with the TV than they are letting anyone know about. Maybe it's just that it's a Fire TV an Amazon is promoting it. I obviously don't know. What I do know, is that just about anything has to be better than this Vizio that I have now.
i paid $279 for the tv.
I have the google 55" U6H. I like it quite a bit except for dark scenes in SDR. Dark browns/greys and such, well not so much. The tv doesn't know how to handle this and gets a weird shady black. Those same scenes in HDR, then there is not problem. I think this might be what is called 'crushing'
For watching movies TH-cam & dvds 📀 which tv has the better audio sound & picture between the Hisense & the TCL Q6?
Well-done review man! I was wondering how this TV has been holding up? I'm about to buy 3 of them to mount them vertically and get a 103 inch TV 😁 Will be using a Nvidia GPU to make it work. They'll make a 102 inch TV and cost half of cheapest 98 rn and w/ much better display overall. Thanks in advance!
I review TVs, I don’t use them after the videos are filmed
Currently $350 at Amazon.
Steve. Late in 2023 Amazon began, & still is selling a 65u6HF, and also a 75" version with fire tv. I can not find any specs on this model. Hisense doesn't even mention this model on there website. So being a later release than the 50 & 58"; would this TV have similar specs to an older 6h model or 6k model. Thank you Steve as I'm interested in purchasing.
Hey Steve looks like Hisense has done a very good job with.budget TVs this year.
Yes, And I’ll get to see what’s coming for 2023 at CES in Jan, already booked
whats the dimensions for the vesa mount pls just purchased the tv need to find a compatible mount
between this one and the fire tv 4 series which one do you reccomend?
Hey Steve! Prime video is not streaming 4k despite having 1 gig internet. Is there any thing I need to turn on to maximize streaming resolution?
me i wait tomorrow 55 U7HQ.. for ps5 gaming!
I'm thinking about getting this model in the 58" from Amazon. However, would you choose the U6HF w/ Fire TV built in over the Hisense 55" U6GR or the Hisense 55" U6H? I love using my 4K Firestick with Kodi. Can Kodi be installed directly onto this TV or should I depend solely on the 4K Firestick for Kodi instead?
I prefer the Google TV model, better controls
Which one did you choose? Right now Amazon got the 58 firetv for $350. But the google 55 is $400. I like googletv more but for $50 less a bigger tv is kinda tempting
Hey steve as hisense TVs are going better and better throughout year
, do you think there should be a comparison between high end hisense TV and sony x90k
I did a comparison with the U8H in the channel
@@TechSteve I will surely watch that, btw love your videos ❤️ you are absolute beauty
Is this better than A6H? And does it have wifi 6? Love the video by the way.
Thanks, you can find your answer here www.displayspecifications.com/en
Tech Steve! Question. I know you showed how to set the side panel to select colors etc.... Is that what is meant by calibration of a tv? In other words, If BestBuy came to do it aren't the essentially going to be doing a similar thing maybe with a computer or other tool?? Advise, thanks
They use those settings, but they might access the service menu as well
Can you sideload Kodi on this TV like you can on a Firestick?
Hi Steve
I need to replace a Hisense U6F that I bought in Aug 2020 - the whole right side of the panel is going gradually darker - 3 1/2 years is not so great.
(Is that maybe because it hangs next to a window on that side, and I had Auto Light Sensor on?)
Thanks
Thanks for great videos, very informative. Got mine in the other day. Love the tv so far for my series s. Tell me , is their a way you got it into 1440p on xbox? On my Xbox it only shows 4k, 1080, and 720p. When I select 1080 though , it doesn't give me 120hz option
It’s a 60Hz TV, only the Xbox S and X allowed you to override the HDMI and that’s what I showed on the video
one can't analyze the video and audio of what you review due to the quality of the viewers pc, tablet, phone or tv.
Correct, it’s a general idea of something
vs sony x90k . does u6hf have brighter HDR/picture overall? saw costco hace 85" sony x90k at $1,500
. So you don't see any motion blurring because of its low response time?
And you're not worried about the judder because it can't remove the judder from cable, Chromecast?
So difficult to tell the real experience from the stats.
nice rewive
Do the samsung 6 series and the hisense a6 series have the espn app?
Can you use the tv with out internet? Like basic part
Yes, you can use it just with inputs. You have to choose basic on the 1st time setup
Not taking size into the equation, which is a better tv? Hisense U6H 58 inch or Omni QLED 65 inch tv?
Scott unless you put TVs side by side it’s a guessing game far as pictures, I don’t remember being impressed by the omni at all
Steve how do I get sound to come from the tv speakers while using Bluetooth headphones.
It doesn’t
I mean, what tv actually does that
Hi @Steve cannot fine much on this feature, but I do see any opinions for motion smoothing on the TV. Is this build into TV and active randomly?
I have this TV. There is no option to turn on motion smoothing (aka soap opera effect). That feature is absent. I don't miss it.
@@TechSteve no, you cannot on this Fire TV model.
It’s hard to read the comments and the models on the app sometimes m. I guess it’s an on and off feature.
To disable it: Press and hold the Home button on your voice remote while playing video. Select Picture from the Quick Access menu, then select Advanced Options. Select Motion Smoothing, then choose Bypass to turn it off.
@@poturbg8698 Peter, are you saying that motion smoothing is disabled on the tv by default? I just brought the TV. It will arrive in a few days. I don't like that feature as well.
@@TechSteve I have a 50U6HF (Fire TV)--No, there is **no** motion smoothing option in the advanced picture settings. Also, motion smoothing ("soap opera effect") is not taking place on this TV. Maybe you had a different model, or else somehow different features in the same model I have??
No guides have hdr option for this model. How do i turn it on?
Just play a source with HDR like Netflix 4k, prime video, max that has hdr
@@TechSteve it had it. It was amd settings on PC. Needed HDMI cable with different standard lol
Is this TV Dolby Atmos compatable via eARC? I have a Atmos system and want to take advantage of it
Hi, did you find more info about Dolby atmos? I'm trying to find information about this too
@@angel25378 I read on the Amazon Q&A section for this TV that yes, it is Dolby Atmos compatable via eARC, but I couldn't get any info on if the Fire TV interface allows you to output Dolby Atmos audio like a standalone Fire TV stick does.
@@andrewnickds it is compatible, I've set everything up and my soundbar recognizes the audio codec as Dolby Atmos, it also says Dolby MAT
@@angel25378 Nice. Are you streaming off of the built in Fire TV?
@@andrewnickds yeah, I've connected my soundbar through HDMI eArc and playing everything directly from the fire tv, sounds pretty good. Mi soundbar is a Vizio M Series M51ax-J6 and there is a function on it to check what audio codec is currently being played.
For some reason on my own is very laggy and sdr content looks like hdr and hdr content looks like sdr
Mine had bad dark corners
Worse than the video?
@@TechSteve Yeah unfortunately returning mine.
Understood
will this tv work with my Verizon fios ?
Yes
Dolby atmos? 👀
Hello, did you find information about atmos? I'm searching for the same info
😍🤩
