I also have been using one of these for the past two weeks, and I gotta say, good TVs are getting cheap, and cheap TVs are getting good. Very impressive for the price.
I was trying to get an OLED monitor for my PC. But they are pretty expensive where I live. I heard about this TV and decided to buy one to use it as a PC monitor. The picture quality is excellent, it cost me a fraction of an OLED monitor and I don't have to worry about image burning. 10/10 for me.
First of all, OLED monitors are expensive EVERYWHERE. second, OLED is so much better compared to these sh** HiSense LED panels. If you can't notice the massive difference and you actually think the picture quality is good compared to an OLED, you're blind. Burn in isn't happening an ymore either because of the better technology. Stop leaving it on static images, it's really simple anyways.
ya i just grabbed an oled monitor for my pc because im tired of the ips i got a few months back. and i got one of these tvs coming in a week for the living room. and my $300 wooting keyboard just shipped to replace my $200 apex pro tkl! i use a $200 finalmouse and a $150 razer viper pro on a $90 artisan mousepad. my peripherals setup costs more than some peoples whole pc lol. having money is dope.
got 100" and set it up this week end and WOW! Watching the 4k videos on TH-cam, and it's just unreal! Everyone has been over and just can't get over how great it looks.
I picked up the 55" set 2 months ago at $599. The panel I have does have some dirty screen effect, but it's a secondary TV for me and for the kids. In gaming mode, I don't even notice it, and the 120Hz performance along with Dolby Vision gaming is really what sold me on this TV. It's a great value gaming TV.
Thanks for the review. My family helped get my the 75" U7N for my 82nd birthday late last month (August). The 75" version uses a different viewing panel (ADP), so some of the characteristics are different than the other sizes. The side-ish view is good, and even on an all-white/grey screen, no noticeable dirty screen effect. I have the newest set of Spears & Munsil disks and used my Sony 4k/HDR Blu-ray to calibrate. Calibration is important. The biggest issue with this size is that no one who has a 75" has posted recommended settings for the ADP panel. Overall, for my old eyes, it is near OLED in contrast. I use an Ethernet connection, not Wi-Fi, but I find the Google TV experience a bit slow in response, and the ATSC-3 tuner just okay. Streaming apps do well with the exception of the TABLO-TV app (I use the Tablo Gen-4 for DVR recording). The fallback for the Tablo is to have a Roku device, it always works.
ADS panel you mean. That panel will degrade like the rest of the Hisense lineups panels within the year, go ahead and bookmark this comment and come back in a year.
@@8K240hzWhy do you say that? This is the first I've heard that Hisense uses panels that degrade in a year. I'm considering a Hisense and would appreciate knowing about this before spending my money on one.
@@larryhoffman7471 the panels contrast and backlight literally degrades within a year.. the contrast becomes greyer and the backlight uniformity becomes cloudy
Thanks for all the good, practical information. Based on this video and extensive research over the last month, I just placed an order with Costco for a 75" U7N. I'm very excited as it will replace my 8 yr. old 48" Sony (which has been great). Many, if not most, of the retailers have announced their Black Friday prices, which I've been waiting for. I got it for $900, which seems pretty good. I chose Costco over BB because BB wanted $190 for a 3 yr warranty and Costco included a 5 yr warranty for free, and Costco's very liberal return policy. So now I'm on pins and needles until it gets here later this week.
Waiting on my 75” U7N to arrive within a week from Amazon (wish I would’ve gone with Costco, but can’t MMQB) … how has yours been? Mainly does the contrast hold up w/ the ADS Pro panel vs the Va models?
I just bought an 85" U7N. I usually only buy your typical big-brand TVs but I took a chance on Hisense this time around. Mainly because of all of the praise you've given them over the years. So if it sucks, then it's your fault Caleb 😂
@charijard98 honestly, it's amazing. Aside from the weird noise it makes when turning on and off, or when HDR and VRR activates. But apparently that's just what these TVs do after looking it up.
Let me tell you as someone who has had a first gen QM8 for over a year now. I'll never buy another TCL TV. Yes the picture is nice. However their firmware is trash. It's constantly having issues where it keeps the internal speakers on when there is a soundbar present. The interface is laggy and sometimes the TV just doesn't want to turn the screen on. I understand the "value" but the value disappears when the TV doesn't behave itself. Never again.
This is where I wish manufacturers would sell a “dumb” tv, no reason they need to bloat & over complicate their software to compete with dedicated streaming devices developed from much bigger companies. *Kinda like how auto manufacturers should stop trying to make their touch screens full of all these unnecessary functions when people will plug their phone in and use the awesome Apple car play & Android auto. Just make a tv that produces the most badass picture & [from a software side] functions effortlessly w/ all the modern tech tools these new screens use
The wifi issue seems to be across most of their tv's along with a sound issue. The sound issue is not the sound itself but how it interfaces with amps. When you change the volume the icon shows on the tv but it does not tell you what volume it's at. Neither of these is a deal breaker or major but given how slow they are with updates a fix is likely going to be a long time coming or not at all.
I picked up a 65" U7N at BB last week for $799. Even with the optional 5 year BB warranty, the TV still came in at a bit less than it's normal price of $1099 with only the standard factory warranty. Though I'm not a full fledged nit-nerd, I am a more discriminating viewer, having been spoiled by two OLEDs. So here's my two word review. "I'm impressed." 'Nuff said. Go get one if you're looking for a very bright, great contrast, budget friendly bang for the buck TV that acts like it's too big for it's britches.
I got the U7K after seeing your reviews on the U7H and saving up money until the "K" dropped and it's seriously a game changer if you've only had super budget tv's all your life. I've never had anything with good contrast ratio or brightness and having both in the same tv is purely stunning. It is as big of a difference as going from 1080p to 4k for my gaming/content enjoyment.
I got the 55” U7K this past February, thanks to this channel. To this day I still can’t stop telling my wife and son how much I love this TV haha. Especially for the price, it’s phenomenal.
I just had a chat w/a Samsung "sales expert" on their website and he advised me that all current S95D OLED TVs are NOT QD panels. Same for the S90D - I had my heart set on the value proposition these models offered and now - well it is back to the drawing board. I know there is a lot of hate for the Chinese brands but when one of the big 3 pulls this - Chinese at least let you know what you are getting & that is worth something!
That's bad business. Their argument is the customer is still getting the same quality tv, just a different panel. But that's not a tiny difference. Many want the QD panel, otherwise might go to LG instead. Hmm, maybe that's why Samsung don't mention it!
@@larryhoffman7471 All they mention is their "color accuracy" of their OLEDs. Yes, LG OLEDs can be very accurate. Begs the question why consider a $4k S95D when you can go buy the same TV (the C4) in the 83" variety for less. Bad business is right, at leat have the dignity to tell your customer base you are screwing them. Instead you leave "Quantum" in the description due to your processor - how far they have fallen!
No. Hisense are trash. I bought an 85 Inch LED from them in 2022 and I threw it to the trash at the beginning of this year because the backlight failed. Total lifespan for a 1K plus TV was 2 years. Stay away.
@@ariescorner7655 thank you for sharing that. I have been thinking of getting one for my mom. Longevity and durability are the questions that are making me hesitant
@@Abhi_0893 yeah this is not the brand for that. No matter how much upfront value you seem to get. Best Buy rep confirmed to me most of his returns are Hisense too. Go Sony or LG for durability. If this were cars then you are looking at a jeep when you could be getting a Honda or a Toyota. And if durability is your concern… well the answer is obvious.
@@Abhi_0893 Keep in mind that one bad TV doesn't make all of them trash. For one person who’s had a lemon, there are many who have been happy with their unit for years. Even companies that have great reputations for many years need customer service departments because there are problems with their products. I would expect fewer problems on average with Sony tv’s, but you pay a lot more for them. I saw a video by a tech, showing how the electronics inside a Hisense U8N was much better than from previous years. Just like the older companies, they are upping their quality too.
Interestingly, for better or worse the TV has Vidda for an OS here in Australia. Quick setup with no updates and doesn't have that Wi-Fi dropping bug. So can’t complain. The really cool thing is we get two remotes. Standard battery one and a rechargeable solar one. It made it feel like a luxury TV. Upgrades from a 2016 Samsung, so what you said about being impressed with this for gaming went double for me.
Thats where I'm at . Im still running my 50" Viera I bought in 2007 . Im scared to replace it , its still so vibrant and such a wonderful picture still after all these years . Its never had a single issue . Go Panasonic!!
@@kastaways1259 I can't imagine that a 15 year old 720p TV is going to look very good compared to anything made in the past few years. It probably looks good enough on its own, but if you compared it to something more modern you'd be blown away at how bad it looks.
Be lucky if you'd get a Hisense lasting that long. Cheap parts, built to a price. I know two people who bought this make. One got just over two years and the other four years. Speaking to my mate who works in the retail sector, he advised me to avoid this make like the plague as they have a high failure rate, although there will be the odd exceptions, maybe where the tv is only used for a couple of hours a day.
I just got a 55 inch for my parents' room. Since they'll be watching it dead on, the viewing angles aren't going to be an issue. I scored it for $480, and I got the Allstate 4-year insurance. I can't wait to see it in action.
Thanks for this review! DSE is one of the main reasons holding me back from buying a new TV since my 2018 Samsung does not suffer from it at all. But definitely the U7N looks like the best bang for the buck out there. OLED televisions at the 77 inch screen size that I would want are very expensive here in Canada.
My 2018 Samsung actually just died yesterday, and I'm sort of glad it did, because the DSE was pretty bad, just not quite bad enough to get me to spend money on a new TV. Now that it's dead, I'm glad it is, because I have an excuse to get a new TV. Even if this TV does have some, I can't imagine it'll be any worse than it was on my Samsung, and all the other upgrades will make up for it.
Dang it Caleb, watched your review; dug a bit deeper & realized the 75 inch variant of the U7N uses a different panel called ADS pro that allows for a massive improvement on the viewing angle problem you mentioned. Many will poo poo this panel over the VA, but for my house I REQUIRE the wide viewing angle. For under $900 on Black Friday 2024, this is my impulse buy of the year. 100% Gonna be in the doghouse with the wifey next week
ADS panels have worse contrast. I'd rather sit in front of, or very slightly off center and get a much better image quality, than be able to site far more to on the edge for worse image quality anyway.
@@ObakuZenCenterUSA VA will look awesome for you sitting dead center. It’s the better choice for sure. But my room is wide and has seating over 120 degrees. The VA would basically turn grey and look like poo for me at that angle. 📐
I have a Hisense cheap ass 58" from Wal-Mart and its perfectly fine for me. HD looks great. Over the air channels are not great unless they are in HD. I occasionally play games on my Xbox and they look perfectly fine. No issues so far. I'll get a bigger better tv one day but im ok with what I have now. Yes. Quite shocking for a TV under $300 bucks.
i’m getting the same annoying Wi-Fi disconnected reconnected on my TCL QM8 I think it’s related to the underlying google OS and not the TV company. Just another reason why I use my Apple TV with my TCL and hisense 100U8K
yes, my shorty just bought one at costco after waiting weeks to get one, and myself was very suprised at how bright and contrasty this tv is vs my 3000.00 samsung...wish i could return my samsung
Longtime subscriber here love the channel and you do an outstanding job👍👍. 2 questions why don’t you test the 75 u8n with the ads pro panel? A lot of us are very interested in your take on it. And why don’t you measure the black levels during nit nerd segments? It would be nice to actually have real numbers on that aspect. Again thanks for the great reviews.
I have the U8N and it’s pretty much the same but with better viewing angles . It’s not perfect but it’s really hard to find anything that comes close to the $1200.00 I payed for it.
I just bought this exact TV last week and it's stellar EXCEPT for the blooming when the image on the screen has a lot of black in it. So much so, that I thought something was wrong with the TV. Any help in this area as far as TV settings go? Also, do you have a separate video on what settings are best for this TV? TIA!
Turn off local dimming will help the blooming issue the cost is black aren't gonna be "pure" black Unfortunately unless you buy a Oled it's never gonna be perfect in black scene
Do NOT turn off local dimming. That's a major feature of these TVs. If you were to do that, then opt for a cheaper system without FALD. It's something that enhances image quality when well implemented, which on most panels on these TVs it usually is. Instead check that anything like black level detail, motion smoothing/judder reduction, so called artifact clearing settings, are all turned off. Up the contrast as high as looks good as well.
I've ordered mine (the 75 inch) through Best Buy, so it should arrive in the next few days. I will let you know how it all turns out. Thanks for the review. Enjoy all your reviews. Kudos?
55 inch in my bedroom (rocking a 77 inch b2 OLED in my media room) I love this tv. I have a huge bedroom with a lot of windows and this tv does so well in that room (ever on the darker theater setting that i prefer)
Nice choice. Have a C2 83” that I bought in 2023 and received a huge discount, otherwise I’d have gone with the 77” as well. The 83”, at normal pricing is like $2k more. That’s about $334 per inch for each inch over 77”. That is crazy. The B series is so over looked, u get almost everything the C or G has at a much lower price.
@@michael-4k4000 very true, I got the b2 for only $1400 when the b3 had just came out so it was a crazy good deal, I had the c9 before snd a b8 before that so I’m definitely a fan
Man I went to bb yesterday and they had a few different 75" options for 6-700$. I'm still on the first gen TCL 65r615 and the want is very strong. I'm holding out for an OLED. Bb also surprisingly had kef blades for sale. For as much as a nice used car.
GREAT VIDEO!! What I’ve learned is to stay uninformed so that I really don’t know what a great picture is..lmao! I got what I needed to know, which is hey I have x to spend what’s the BEST DEAL? Seems though I’ve found it
Thanks for the great video as always! When you were talking about how accurate The TV is out of the box, it reminded me of older videos you would do and question if the TV had been pre-calibrated. Do you factory reset the TV when you get it just to be on the safe side? I know they may handpick some good TVs for you, but I just wonder if they would go a little further. Cheers
Got the Hisense H7G couple of years back thanks to reviews like these. Great TV for the price. Looking forward to an upgrade hopefully soon for gaming and this looks great
I own the 75" version of the U8K. When you turn the "Mini-LED" feature to "Low" all your blacks will be incredibly black similar to an OLED - even if you turn the Brightness all the way up to 100. The RTINGS review is based on turning "Mini-LED" to "High," which is not what you want to do for Movies. Turning the "Mini-LED" to "High" produces the "Vivid" look and is what should be used for Sports and programs where there is not black on the screen.
Never turn off local dimming. It's literally there for better image quality. If people still insist on giving out this nonsense advice, they should be watching on a CRT set from the 90's.The 75" version has an ADS panel which can have less of the DSE but it also has worse image quality to begin with.
Thank you for the great review as always! Question, from 10:44 to 11:04 was there an editing error? Are those two different audio takes placed twice, or were you saying it twice to emphasize the message?
Just got a 100" U76N last week. Purchased for 2199 over labor day. Prices swing pretty high on this one. It's pretty amazing. I'm not seeing any DSE so I guess I got lucky there but he is right about the off angle color fidelity. You really want to be in the middle of the view. It's not horrible and not so much a problem at 100". I have an 85" Samsung and it doesn't have that same issue. Other than that the TV is great and I'm very happy with it.
Caleb I thank you for your video matching up with rtings review. Not mentioned are the number of local dimming zones. Every TV size isn't the same. With the 75" the top number is 512 LDZ. This is why you get so much DSE out of the box & with vignetting in the corners from what rtings observed from their TV. With Rtings their score numbers are very close with the U8N to the U7N. The U8N is just a much better buy for what you get over U7N. Especially with Dolby Atmos speakers that might also be a bigger difference. Plus you get more colors from the U8N. At least with miniled you still get more LDZ over Vizio M-series from their regular size led LDZ. With the firmware update nobody is mentioning having to unplug it and plug it back in so that an improvement.
The "Catch" is that the spec of the sets sold in the USA is higher than the ones sold in the UK/EU. I have said multiple times that until they change the O/S back from Vidaa to Google then i will never buy another. The panel lottery applies to all brands, but some brands fit lower grade panels to lower priced models. From my own experience, LG do this with their smaller Oled models. and yes i got a bad sample.
@@Meteorkarton17 They use lower grade panels and force us to use external box's so that we can watch all the UK TV channels. On the Vidaa O/S you can't add or remove any apps, plus it causes issues with the HDMI connections requiring a hard reset to restore them, until they lock up again ! Hisense are not the only Chinese brand with issues, TCL have similar problems. again the UK sets are not the same specs as the USA ones. Samsung have jut highlighted that TCL 6 series are not fitted with Qled panels despite the spec saying otherwise, Never believe a word that the Chinese say.
I have last years model, and as much as I am impressed with the TV, I'd likely not buy another Hisense model because in the UK they use their own Vidaa OS, and even as someone who doesn't use the smart features at all, I find the UI a pain, and next time around will likely look at TCL.
Thank you for pointing out the off-angle viewing limitations. It seems that OLED is the only way to go for wide viewing. I want a 75 to 77 inch TV with good reviews and a decent off-angle view for under $1500 USD. I guess I'm expecting too much.
Better to have a mini LED/QLED panel that doesn't degrade over a few years, as all OLEDS do because the coating is organic, and also doesn't suffer from burn in, as all OLEDS can. Image quality is not automatically better on an OLED. That's just marketing hype. Even contrast on a TV like this and above is now pretty close to OLED. Also, it's still better to have a slight loss in contrast, than overall a much dimmer image that will further degrade over time. OLEDs are not necessarily better for off angle viewing either. It depends on the panel.
Great video I also saw your video on Amazon. I will be back to update you. I’m gonna connect my PC to it. I have a latency reader on my PC so I will update this review. You pointed out some very important aspects a lot most people won’t even notice but for the price and 144 Hz, 16:41 you can’t go wrong. I would rather have an LG that’s what my gaming monitor is LG ultra gear 32 inch nano IPS but this one has AMD sync and my PC runs off of a AMD processor so we’ll see how far I can push the frames. I have mine capped at 144 because anything faster I get dizzy but my graphics card will push over 200 frames. It’s a 4060 Asus 8 gigabyte. Again, really enjoyed this review and I feel confident with my purchase fingers crossed for the delivery.
@@rixiorx The Hisense is better overall. With LG you are largely paying for branding. Plus, all OLEDS degrade over time, since there is literally an organic coating and they all suffer from burn in issues. Picture quality also is NOT automatically better with OLED. Contrast can be better, but at this level and above, the image quality overall, including brightness for HDR, is often better on mini LED and QLED panels. The LG panel for example has pretty bad brightness except in comparison to other OLEDS, as well as color shift and a green tint when viewed of center.
Hello. Loved the video. I just got my new u7 55 inch. I'm not that much of an expert but would like to know the best calibration setting for this TV to get the maximum out of it if you could share the details. Thanks
@@sillyjgillyI’ve wanted to see a proper review on the qd7 for a while, but never found one bf I pulled the trigger on the 75” U7N. - The price point of the qd7 @ 75 or 85 inches made me pause and almost say hell with all the mini led & local dimming features… One of the Best Buy’s in my area had the 55” qd7 on display, and the crappy videos they were looping on the screens didn’t help much but it seemed to look better than the TVs around it, even though they had it mounted very high which is useless when trying to judge a screen
Hisense U7N vs TCL QM7 (i.e. C805/C755 if they are equivalent to the QM7), Which one to get as far as feature set, reliability and quality is concerned?
I bought the 55” of this TV back when it first came out and I thought it was really good minus the fact that it is a matte screen and not glossy. To me glossy screens look way better looking. Also I’d say the worst part of this TV is having to deal with potentially horrendous DSE. From just right of center going all the way across the screen I can see a checkerboard grid. It’s of course not that bad in darker scenes but lighter ones with large patches of the same color on there, such as grass on a baseball field, or the sky, you will clearly notice the grid pattern on panning camera shots. I’d say the first thing anyone should do when buying a new TV is to run a Dirty Screen Effect test on it , then decide based on your observations whether or not it’s worth keeping. If it wasn’t for that experience, I would 100% recommend it, but I almost can’t because it’s that annoyingly distracting.
great review thank you!!! I have always been a Vizio owner and with the current prices I am looking to replace an older model I would like your honest opinion on this Hisense U7N vs Vizios quantum pro???? im wanting a 75"
These TVs are better than OLED on several levels, including that they don't have an organic coating that degrades over time and don't have the same burn in problems. Contrast in some cases isn't quite as good but can be pretty damn close. Backlight bleed is not usually an issue on TVs at this price point and above either. There are individual differences between panels though, so don't be afraid to return the TV immediately if you aren't happy with it. That goes for any TV, regardless of panel type or brand.
i mean its bigger pic or better pic. you choose which matters more. wont be an insane difference either way, not much size diff and not much pic quality diff, but a little of each.
Hi Caleb, I'm trying to figure out which Hisense model to buy. I have an option between the 65U8N, 75U8N or the 85U7N. I initially thought 65 inches was something I'd get but after looking at screen sizes in stores, it just seems like bigger is better. That ADS panel on the 75U8N has got me worried but based on numbers it out performs the U7N except for contrast. What would you recommend?
Same,was going to get new 65 ,after existing 55 hisense proving to be excellent performer for 2 years now. Considering 75 now ,..e7k looks awesome, u7n ,wow...I've decided I don't need oled...have own hifi avr,so not bothered about TV sound...I'm definitely considering u7k or the current u7n .
@ digitaltrends can you please do a calibration video on this TV since this t v really needs to be set up correctly out of the box, since the precalibration on it is so bad
is this the best AND brightest tv under 500 for 55 inch size? and how does it stack up against the hisense h and k series of the same model and Top Tcl models at that price range like the qm7 and 8?
Great TV. The only problem I have is that there is no audio only option on TH-cam. For every other app, this option is available. Only on TH-cam, where I need it the most because I don't want my little one staring at the screen its not available
I also have been using one of these for the past two weeks, and I gotta say, good TVs are getting cheap, and cheap TVs are getting good. Very impressive for the price.

I was trying to get an OLED monitor for my PC. But they are pretty expensive where I live. I heard about this TV and decided to buy one to use it as a PC monitor. The picture quality is excellent, it cost me a fraction of an OLED monitor and I don't have to worry about image burning. 10/10 for me.
First of all, OLED monitors are expensive EVERYWHERE. second, OLED is so much better compared to these sh** HiSense LED panels. If you can't notice the massive difference and you actually think the picture quality is good compared to an OLED, you're blind. Burn in isn't happening an ymore either because of the better technology. Stop leaving it on static images, it's really simple anyways.

The real value of TVs like the U7 or U8, or TCL QM8 is the cost of them when they are on sale. These TVs discount DEEP.

Thanks for all the good, practical information. Based on this video and extensive research over the last month, I just placed an order with Costco for a 75" U7N. I'm very excited as it will replace my 8 yr. old 48" Sony (which has been great). Many, if not most, of the retailers have announced their Black Friday prices, which I've been waiting for. I got it for $900, which seems pretty good. I chose Costco over BB because BB wanted $190 for a 3 yr warranty and Costco included a 5 yr warranty for free, and Costco's very liberal return policy. So now I'm on pins and needles until it gets here later this week.
How do you like it? I’m in the market for a 75” I thought I was going to go grab a u7n until I read today it’s an ads panel….
Waiting on my 75” U7N to arrive within a week from Amazon (wish I would’ve gone with Costco, but can’t MMQB) … how has yours been? Mainly does the contrast hold up w/ the ADS Pro panel vs the Va models?
I just bought an 85" U7N. I usually only buy your typical big-brand TVs but I took a chance on Hisense this time around.
Mainly because of all of the praise you've given them over the years. So if it sucks, then it's your fault Caleb 😂
How is it ?
@charijard98 honestly, it's amazing. Aside from the weird noise it makes when turning on and off, or when HDR and VRR activates. But apparently that's just what these TVs do after looking it up.
Just picked up the 55U7N At PC Richards Appliance for $497.99. Great picture, features, easy setup. Great value, love it.
Do u notice any dirty screen effect I'm thinking of grabbing one at bestbuy
Let me tell you as someone who has had a first gen QM8 for over a year now. I'll never buy another TCL TV. Yes the picture is nice. However their firmware is trash. It's constantly having issues where it keeps the internal speakers on when there is a soundbar present. The interface is laggy and sometimes the TV just doesn't want to turn the screen on. I understand the "value" but the value disappears when the TV doesn't behave itself. Never again.
Use a streaming device for a better tv watching experience
I was thinking about the 75 qmz for 1100. But this one is 300 less 🤔
This is where I wish manufacturers would sell a “dumb” tv, no reason they need to bloat & over complicate their software to compete with dedicated streaming devices developed from much bigger companies.
*Kinda like how auto manufacturers should stop trying to make their touch screens full of all these unnecessary functions when people will plug their phone in and use the awesome Apple car play & Android auto.
Just make a tv that produces the most badass picture & [from a software side] functions effortlessly w/ all the modern tech tools these new screens use
I bought this about 3 months ago,have this downstairs the TCL upstairs. I love it!
The wifi issue seems to be across most of their tv's along with a sound issue. The sound issue is not the sound itself but how it interfaces with amps. When you change the volume the icon shows on the tv but it does not tell you what volume it's at.
Neither of these is a deal breaker or major but given how slow they are with updates a fix is likely going to be a long time coming or not at all.
I’m excited to see how the TCL QM7 compares to this tv. Hopefully that review is in the near future.
Tech Steve recently posted a video comparing the two if interested.
@@kelley09162 Yep, saw that. 👍🏻 Thanks!
I'll never buy another TCL TV. My wife and I bought a 65" TCL and it worked until the warranty expired. Not doing that again.
@bigbadjohnpesek9894 which model? Im looking at the qm7 vs this
Same here, never again
Bought it, hopefully we won the panel lottery, have it next week. Also got the 4 yr extended warranty at Costco for a total of 6yrs
I picked up a 65" U7N at BB last week for $799. Even with the optional 5 year BB warranty, the TV still came in at a bit less than it's normal price of $1099 with only the standard factory warranty. Though I'm not a full fledged nit-nerd, I am a more discriminating viewer, having been spoiled by two OLEDs. So here's my two word review. "I'm impressed." 'Nuff said. Go get one if you're looking for a very bright, great contrast, budget friendly bang for the buck TV that acts like it's too big for it's britches.
I got the U7K after seeing your reviews on the U7H and saving up money until the "K" dropped and it's seriously a game changer if you've only had super budget tv's all your life. I've never had anything with good contrast ratio or brightness and having both in the same tv is purely stunning. It is as big of a difference as going from 1080p to 4k for my gaming/content enjoyment.
I got the 55” U7K this past February, thanks to this channel. To this day I still can’t stop telling my wife and son how much I love this TV haha. Especially for the price, it’s phenomenal.
How does this TV compare to the TCL QM7? It seems like those are the two best value TV's this year?
I just had a chat w/a Samsung "sales expert" on their website and he advised me that all current S95D OLED TVs are NOT QD panels. Same for the S90D - I had my heart set on the value proposition these models offered and now - well it is back to the drawing board. I know there is a lot of hate for the Chinese brands but when one of the big 3 pulls this - Chinese at least let you know what you are getting & that is worth something!
That's bad business. Their argument is the customer is still getting the same quality tv, just a different panel. But that's not a tiny difference. Many want the QD panel, otherwise might go to LG instead. Hmm, maybe that's why Samsung don't mention it!
@@larryhoffman7471 All they mention is their "color accuracy" of their OLEDs. Yes, LG OLEDs can be very accurate. Begs the question why consider a $4k S95D when you can go buy the same TV (the C4) in the 83" variety for less. Bad business is right, at leat have the dignity to tell your customer base you are screwing them. Instead you leave "Quantum" in the description due to your processor - how far they have fallen!
@@larryhoffman7471LG is Woled
I have an 85" u8k (last years model) and i have absolutely loved it
Hey, how about the longevity of the U7 series? Do they last as long as the Sonys and LGs without too many problems?
No. Hisense are trash. I bought an 85 Inch LED from them in 2022 and I threw it to the trash at the beginning of this year because the backlight failed. Total lifespan for a 1K plus TV was 2 years. Stay away.
@@ariescorner7655 thank you for sharing that. I have been thinking of getting one for my mom. Longevity and durability are the questions that are making me hesitant
@@Abhi_0893 yeah this is not the brand for that. No matter how much upfront value you seem to get. Best Buy rep confirmed to me most of his returns are Hisense too. Go Sony or LG for durability. If this were cars then you are looking at a jeep when you could be getting a Honda or a Toyota. And if durability is your concern… well the answer is obvious.
@@Abhi_0893 Keep in mind that one bad TV doesn't make all of them trash. For one person who’s had a lemon, there are many who have been happy with their unit for years. Even companies that have great reputations for many years need customer service departments because there are problems with their products. I would expect fewer problems on average with Sony tv’s, but you pay a lot more for them.
I saw a video by a tech, showing how the electronics inside a Hisense U8N was much better than from previous years. Just like the older companies, they are upping their quality too.
@@Abhi_0893i bought a cheap hisense and cheap tcl in 2020 still going strong
Interestingly, for better or worse the TV has Vidda for an OS here in Australia. Quick setup with no updates and doesn't have that Wi-Fi dropping bug. So can’t complain. The really cool thing is we get two remotes. Standard battery one and a rechargeable solar one. It made it feel like a luxury TV. Upgrades from a 2016 Samsung, so what you said about being impressed with this for gaming went double for me.
Finally I've been waiting for you to do this Review
I'm still using my 2012 Panasonic Viera plasma 55 inch. No plans to ditch it yet...picture quality is still life-like and operates like new.
I know how you feel. I’ve got a55” LG 3D that I bought in ‘11 that I still like.
Thats where I'm at . Im still running my 50" Viera I bought in 2007 . Im scared to replace it , its still so vibrant and such a wonderful picture still after all these years . Its never had a single issue . Go Panasonic!!
@@kastaways1259 I can't imagine that a 15 year old 720p TV is going to look very good compared to anything made in the past few years. It probably looks good enough on its own, but if you compared it to something more modern you'd be blown away at how bad it looks.
Still using an old Panasonic plasma myself as well. I wouldn’t be bothering to upgrade either if it wasn’t for gaming.
Be lucky if you'd get a Hisense lasting that long. Cheap parts, built to a price. I know two people who bought this make. One got just over two years and the other four years. Speaking to my mate who works in the retail sector, he advised me to avoid this make like the plague as they have a high failure rate, although there will be the odd exceptions, maybe where the tv is only used for a couple of hours a day.
Got the 100 inch from Best Buy for $2,000 and free setup/delivery, almost too good to be true!
Still liking it?
I paid around $1200 for my U8G. It was actually closer to $1500, but the price dropped, so Best Buy provided a credit for the difference.
I just got a 55 inch for my parents' room. Since they'll be watching it dead on, the viewing angles aren't going to be an issue.
I scored it for $480, and I got the Allstate 4-year insurance. I can't wait to see it in action.
I've had this TV for a month now and I love it. Much better than the Samsung I've been watching since 2009!
Now where the heck is the Panasonic review? Did you get snubbed in favor of FOMO & Brian? I appreciate the great work you and those other guys do.
Thanks for this review! DSE is one of the main reasons holding me back from buying a new TV since my 2018 Samsung does not suffer from it at all. But definitely the U7N looks like the best bang for the buck out there. OLED televisions at the 77 inch screen size that I would want are very expensive here in Canada.
My 2018 Samsung actually just died yesterday, and I'm sort of glad it did, because the DSE was pretty bad, just not quite bad enough to get me to spend money on a new TV. Now that it's dead, I'm glad it is, because I have an excuse to get a new TV. Even if this TV does have some, I can't imagine it'll be any worse than it was on my Samsung, and all the other upgrades will make up for it.
@@CarbonatedTurtle That will be great and hopefully the new TV will have a good panel free of anomalies.
LG does have an "apply to all inputs" setting. I just used it the other day when calibrating my C2
Dang it Caleb, watched your review; dug a bit deeper & realized the 75 inch variant of the U7N uses a different panel called ADS pro that allows for a massive improvement on the viewing angle problem you mentioned. Many will poo poo this panel over the VA, but for my house I REQUIRE the wide viewing angle. For under $900 on Black Friday 2024, this is my impulse buy of the year.
100% Gonna be in the doghouse with the wifey next week
ADS panels have worse contrast. I'd rather sit in front of, or very slightly off center and get a much better image quality, than be able to site far more to on the edge for worse image quality anyway.
@@ObakuZenCenterUSA VA will look awesome for you sitting dead center. It’s the better choice for sure. But my room is wide and has seating over 120 degrees. The VA would basically turn grey and look like poo for me at that angle. 📐
Well done sir!
Thanks for including a snippet of rock legend David Gilmour. Still alive and kickin'!!!
Waiting semi patiently for the U9N
I have it! I just have to do the 110 UX and Bravia 7 first! Sorry to keep you waiting, but there are So. Many. TVs!
Wait NO further! Your tv awaits you! CALEB, show this man a affiliate link 🔗
I have a Hisense cheap ass 58" from Wal-Mart and its perfectly fine for me. HD looks great. Over the air channels are not great unless they are in HD. I occasionally play games on my Xbox and they look perfectly fine. No issues so far. I'll get a bigger better tv one day but im ok with what I have now. Yes. Quite shocking for a TV under $300 bucks.
OTA non HD channels all look bad because they are bad in terms of being extremely poor quality to begin with.
i’m getting the same annoying Wi-Fi disconnected reconnected on my TCL QM8 I think it’s related to the underlying google OS and not the TV company. Just another reason why I use my Apple TV with my TCL and hisense 100U8K
Would costco U75 be the same as the U7n? What about the U8N is that better?
yes, my shorty just bought one at costco after waiting weeks to get one, and myself was very suprised at how bright and contrasty this tv is vs my 3000.00 samsung...wish i could return my samsung
1,300 nits, can we even see 1,300 nits, talk about dark.
Longtime subscriber here love the channel and you do an outstanding job👍👍. 2 questions why don’t you test the 75 u8n with the ads pro panel? A lot of us are very interested in your take on it. And why don’t you measure the black levels during nit nerd segments? It would be nice to actually have real numbers on that aspect. Again thanks for the great reviews.
Been buying Hisense since like 15 years or go or more. They are amazing tvs and has lasted everytime
Is the U7NQ the same as U7N? Is there a difference?
I have the U8N and it’s pretty much the same but with better viewing angles . It’s not perfect but it’s really hard to find anything that comes close to the $1200.00 I payed for it.
5:32 I used to have an LG CX. Could've sworn it had a button to apply to all inputs. Maybe I'm remembering wrong.
It does
I just bought this exact TV last week and it's stellar EXCEPT for the blooming when the image on the screen has a lot of black in it. So much so, that I thought something was wrong with the TV. Any help in this area as far as TV settings go? Also, do you have a separate video on what settings are best for this TV? TIA!
Turn off local dimming will help the blooming issue the cost is black aren't gonna be "pure" black
Unfortunately unless you buy a Oled it's never gonna be perfect in black scene
Do NOT turn off local dimming. That's a major feature of these TVs. If you were to do that, then opt for a cheaper system without FALD. It's something that enhances image quality when well implemented, which on most panels on these TVs it usually is. Instead check that anything like black level detail, motion smoothing/judder reduction, so called artifact clearing settings, are all turned off. Up the contrast as high as looks good as well.
I've ordered mine (the 75 inch) through Best Buy, so it should arrive in the next few days. I will let you know how it all turns out. Thanks for the review. Enjoy all your reviews. Kudos?
Yo
so how is it?
55 inch in my bedroom (rocking a 77 inch b2 OLED in my media room) I love this tv. I have a huge bedroom with a lot of windows and this tv does so well in that room (ever on the darker theater setting that i prefer)
Nice choice. Have a C2 83” that I bought in 2023 and received a huge discount, otherwise I’d have gone with the 77” as well. The 83”, at normal pricing is like $2k more. That’s about $334 per inch for each inch over 77”. That is crazy. The B series is so over looked, u get almost everything the C or G has at a much lower price.
@@michael-4k4000 very true, I got the b2 for only $1400 when the b3 had just came out so it was a crazy good deal, I had the c9 before snd a b8 before that so I’m definitely a fan
Man I went to bb yesterday and they had a few different 75" options for 6-700$. I'm still on the first gen TCL 65r615 and the want is very strong. I'm holding out for an OLED. Bb also surprisingly had kef blades for sale. For as much as a nice used car.
GREAT VIDEO!! What I’ve learned is to stay uninformed so that I really don’t know what a great picture is..lmao! I got what I needed to know, which is hey I have x to spend what’s the BEST DEAL? Seems though I’ve found it
Thanks for the great video as always! When you were talking about how accurate The TV is out of the box, it reminded me of older videos you would do and question if the TV had been pre-calibrated. Do you factory reset the TV when you get it just to be on the safe side? I know they may handpick some good TVs for you, but I just wonder if they would go a little further. Cheers
The 55" model is just under 600 USD here. Seems like incredible value
I have it and it's outstanding performance for the price.
Got the Hisense H7G couple of years back thanks to reviews like these. Great TV for the price. Looking forward to an upgrade hopefully soon for gaming and this looks great
I'm thinking about U7N or U8N but in 75" (looking for propper reviews on that size).
That DSE on the U7N is scaring me.
I believe 75 versions are ads pro panels not va
I own the 75" version of the U8K. When you turn the "Mini-LED" feature to "Low" all your blacks will be incredibly black similar to an OLED - even if you turn the Brightness all the way up to 100. The RTINGS review is based on turning "Mini-LED" to "High," which is not what you want to do for Movies. Turning the "Mini-LED" to "High" produces the "Vivid" look and is what should be used for Sports and programs where there is not black on the screen.
@@ajwtf6539how bad is ther compared to the va panels we all have been used to? I’m in the market for a 75”…
Never turn off local dimming. It's literally there for better image quality. If people still insist on giving out this nonsense advice, they should be watching on a CRT set from the 90's.The 75" version has an ADS panel which can have less of the DSE but it also has worse image quality to begin with.
Have u plugged a network cable in to see if the wifi pop-up stops?
Thank you for the great review as always! Question, from 10:44 to 11:04 was there an editing error? Are those two different audio takes placed twice, or were you saying it twice to emphasize the message?
Noticed that too. Got to be editing.
@@tchall8153 I don't think so. He says "again" before repeating it, which means he's just saying it for emphasis.
Hahaha I noticed that as well. I thought I was tripping
A banger for the price. Better OOTB accuracy than TCL and the calibration controls work.
Just got a 100" U76N last week. Purchased for 2199 over labor day. Prices swing pretty high on this one. It's pretty amazing. I'm not seeing any DSE so I guess I got lucky there but he is right about the off angle color fidelity. You really want to be in the middle of the view. It's not horrible and not so much a problem at 100". I have an 85" Samsung and it doesn't have that same issue. Other than that the TV is great and I'm very happy with it.
You’d think the larger the screen the more likely you’d run into viewing angle issue
@@robertt9342it feels like the bigger the screen the harder it is to get to the side of it. With this one you’re fine in a 45 degree cone from center.
Caleb I thank you for your video matching up with rtings review. Not mentioned are the number of local dimming zones. Every TV size isn't the same. With the 75" the top number is 512 LDZ. This is why you get so much DSE out of the box & with vignetting in the corners from what rtings observed from their TV.
With Rtings their score numbers are very close with the U8N to the U7N. The U8N is just a much better buy for what you get over U7N. Especially with Dolby Atmos speakers that might also be a bigger difference. Plus you get more colors from the U8N.
At least with miniled you still get more LDZ over Vizio M-series from their regular size led LDZ.
With the firmware update nobody is mentioning having to unplug it and plug it back in so that an improvement.
The "Catch" is that the spec of the sets sold in the USA is higher than the ones sold in the UK/EU.
I have said multiple times that until they change the O/S back from Vidaa to Google then i will never
buy another.
The panel lottery applies to all brands, but some brands fit lower grade panels to lower priced models.
From my own experience, LG do this with their smaller Oled models. and yes i got a bad sample.
Which specs are worse in the eu?
@@Meteorkarton17 They use lower grade panels and force us to use external box's
so that we can watch all the UK TV channels.
On the Vidaa O/S you can't add or remove any apps, plus it causes issues with the HDMI
connections requiring a hard reset to restore them, until they lock up again !
Hisense are not the only Chinese brand with issues, TCL have similar problems.
again the UK sets are not the same specs as the USA ones.
Samsung have jut highlighted that TCL 6 series are not fitted with Qled panels despite the
spec saying otherwise,
Never believe a word that the Chinese say.
@@BarbarapapeI'm sure I read somewhere they now use the same panels universally.
@@bellrobert1978Please tell me you have a source
I have last years model, and as much as I am impressed with the TV, I'd likely not buy another Hisense model because in the UK they use their own Vidaa OS, and even as someone who doesn't use the smart features at all, I find the UI a pain, and next time around will likely look at TCL.
that was great Caleb, thank you👍
Been waiting for you to review this.
Ive never played on a tv over 60hz. Im so excited to get mine!
What a fantastic review!! Thank you!! But now, I have to spend hours watching your other reviews before I decide which TV to buy!! 😏😏🙄🙄🤣🤣🤣🤣
Got the 65 inch for 800 bucks today. Looking forward for it
Will you be reviewing the Hisense qd7n
Intelligent sound brought the subwoofer to life on my U8K
Thank you for pointing out the off-angle viewing limitations. It seems that OLED is the only way to go for wide viewing. I want a 75 to 77 inch TV with good reviews and a decent off-angle view for under $1500 USD. I guess I'm expecting too much.
Better to have a mini LED/QLED panel that doesn't degrade over a few years, as all OLEDS do because the coating is organic, and also doesn't suffer from burn in, as all OLEDS can. Image quality is not automatically better on an OLED. That's just marketing hype. Even contrast on a TV like this and above is now pretty close to OLED. Also, it's still better to have a slight loss in contrast, than overall a much dimmer image that will further degrade over time. OLEDs are not necessarily better for off angle viewing either. It depends on the panel.
Great video I also saw your video on Amazon. I will be back to update you. I’m gonna connect my PC to it. I have a latency reader on my PC so I will update this review. You pointed out some very important aspects a lot most people won’t even notice but for the price and 144 Hz, 16:41 you can’t go wrong. I would rather have an LG that’s what my gaming monitor is LG ultra gear 32 inch nano IPS but this one has AMD sync and my PC runs off of a AMD processor so we’ll see how far I can push the frames. I have mine capped at 144 because anything faster I get dizzy but my graphics card will push over 200 frames. It’s a 4060 Asus 8 gigabyte. Again, really enjoyed this review and I feel confident with my purchase fingers crossed for the delivery.
How's this vs TCL q7m
I got the 55in U7 and it amazing so far for me enjoying watching 4k movies now... But remember always get warranty 👀
NO, do NOT always get an extended warranty. Some are absolute garbage. One of the few that isn't is the Costco one, which is also free for five years.
Im looking for the 55 inch U7NQ but is that the same as the U7N?
If no what the difference?
@@Nightcore_all_nightin Best Buy? I’m debating between this one and the LG B4
@@rixiorx The Hisense is better overall. With LG you are largely paying for branding. Plus, all OLEDS degrade over time, since there is literally an organic coating and they all suffer from burn in issues. Picture quality also is NOT automatically better with OLED. Contrast can be better, but at this level and above, the image quality overall, including brightness for HDR, is often better on mini LED and QLED panels. The LG panel for example has pretty bad brightness except in comparison to other OLEDS, as well as color shift and a green tint when viewed of center.
Extra points and ❤for testing CHiPS for us! Esssstrada!
Hello. Loved the video. I just got my new u7 55 inch. I'm not that much of an expert but would like to know the best calibration setting for this TV to get the maximum out of it if you could share the details. Thanks
Thanks for yous videos / will be possible to review the Qd7 hisense?
I ended up getting the U8N, omg what a change from what I had worth the money ,
Also curious what a QD7 review might turn up
@@sillyjgillyI’ve wanted to see a proper review on the qd7 for a while, but never found one bf I pulled the trigger on the 75” U7N. - The price point of the qd7 @ 75 or 85 inches made me pause and almost say hell with all the mini led & local dimming features…
One of the Best Buy’s in my area had the 55” qd7 on display, and the crappy videos they were looping on the screens didn’t help much but it seemed to look better than the TVs around it, even though they had it mounted very high which is useless when trying to judge a screen
@ yeah probably goin for the 85” U7N as a result…
But I can’t find the NBA2K25 free game promo everyone was doing.
What happened to Black Friday??
Still not sure why everyone is overlooking or not reviewing the 100 inch u76n which has been on sale for $1995........
Yes it’s not mini led but it’s still a great tv. I would love a professional review because it’s a very popular choice for 100 inches
Great review 👍
Why didn't you activate Amd Freesync premium pro?
Hisense U7N vs TCL QM7 (i.e. C805/C755 if they are equivalent to the QM7),
Which one to get as far as feature set, reliability and quality is concerned?
Definitely looking forward to a TCL QM7 review 😎
I bought the 55” of this TV back when it first came out and I thought it was really good minus the fact that it is a matte screen and not glossy. To me glossy screens look way better looking. Also I’d say the worst part of this TV is having to deal with potentially horrendous DSE. From just right of center going all the way across the screen I can see a checkerboard grid. It’s of course not that bad in darker scenes but lighter ones with large patches of the same color on there, such as grass on a baseball field, or the sky, you will clearly notice the grid pattern on panning camera shots. I’d say the first thing anyone should do when buying a new TV is to run a Dirty Screen Effect test on it , then decide based on your observations whether or not it’s worth keeping. If it wasn’t for that experience, I would 100% recommend it, but I almost can’t because it’s that annoyingly distracting.
Nobody should accept a panel that's that bad. If you still have the warranty, return it.
great review thank you!!! I have always been a Vizio owner and with the current prices I am looking to replace an older model I would like your honest opinion on this Hisense U7N vs Vizios quantum pro???? im wanting a 75"
How is the bleeding/light that comes through the back, when on black screens? How does it compare to OLED on that? Thank you, great video
These TVs are better than OLED on several levels, including that they don't have an organic coating that degrades over time and don't have the same burn in problems. Contrast in some cases isn't quite as good but can be pretty damn close. Backlight bleed is not usually an issue on TVs at this price point and above either. There are individual differences between panels though, so don't be afraid to return the TV immediately if you aren't happy with it. That goes for any TV, regardless of panel type or brand.
Thanks for the reviews, real pro!
Can you help with the choice, what is a better choice U8N 65 inch or U7N 85 Inch.
i mean its bigger pic or better pic. you choose which matters more. wont be an insane difference either way, not much size diff and not much pic quality diff, but a little of each.
Just go with 85 inch, the bigger the better.
Not many people will notice the picture quality, bigger tv compensates for it.
I have the U7k which is great but I am tempted to upgrade to this.
Hisense u7n or Sony x90l ? Just 400 dollars different?
The Hisense. The $400 is for marketing, not better quality overall. Both grey uniformity and blooming are worse with the Sony.
I am deciding between the Hisense u78n and u88n.
Those are the Canadian model numbers for those who don't know.
Try a Canadian reviewer for those.
@@ObakuZenCenterUSA they are the same panel for canada and united states
Hi Caleb, I'm trying to figure out which Hisense model to buy. I have an option between the 65U8N, 75U8N or the 85U7N. I initially thought 65 inches was something I'd get but after looking at screen sizes in stores, it just seems like bigger is better. That ADS panel on the 75U8N has got me worried but based on numbers it out performs the U7N except for contrast. What would you recommend?
Same,was going to get new 65 ,after existing 55 hisense proving to be excellent performer for 2 years now.
Considering 75 now ,..e7k looks awesome, u7n ,wow...I've decided I don't need oled...have own hifi avr,so not bothered about TV sound...I'm definitely considering u7k or the current u7n .
@@Hottiger1818 The U7n, if you can avoid the DSE lottery, is better than the ADS panels on the larger sizes frankly.
Does the color shift happen if the tv is relatively high up on the wall?
Any recommendations for color settings? Particularly for Dolby Vision?
I have a 65in U8K which I purchased last holiday season how does this TV compare to my last year flagship?
@ digitaltrends can you please do a calibration video on this TV since this t v really needs to be set up correctly out of the box, since the precalibration on it is so bad
Hi Caleb, I haven’t seen any reviews of the top tier Tv the UN9?
Just bought the 77 S95C for $2500, brand new. Don’t regret it!
i got one with the dirty screen effect. its driving me crazy! especially while gaming.
is this the best AND brightest tv under 500 for 55 inch size? and how does it stack up against the hisense h and k series of the same model and Top Tcl models at that price range like the qm7 and 8?
Great TV. The only problem I have is that there is no audio only option on TH-cam. For every other app, this option is available. Only on TH-cam, where I need it the most because I don't want my little one staring at the screen its not available
Awesome stuff as always!!!?
