I haven't purchased a TV in a long time, so I had to research everything... smart TVs, current technology, best screen size for my space. And all of my research led to this Hisense 65" Mini-LED. I usually go for high-end brands with electronics and more expensive purchases. I have been ignoring the Hisense brand for months while I've been thinking about getting a new TV. If you have doubts about Hisense, hear me out. My priorities were: - TV with built-in Google Home - the best technology for viewing in bright light My TV habits are: - streaming TV movies or series - not the dark room, cinematic experience - viewing from centered sofa - viewing from kitchen island (sharp viewing angle) There are only a few TV brands with Google Home built in. So my requirements led me over and over to those 3 brands, one of which was Hisense. I was not really open to this brand at first. However, my living room gets a lot of natural light, and I usually watch TV during daylight hours, so I needed a bright screen that can compete with the bright room. I learned that Mini-LED is the best for my lighting conditions. The Hisense U8 checked this box as well. So with those things in mind and the positive reviews, I decided to take a chance on this TV. First of all, U8 looks beautiful even when it's off. The TV is not dark, shiny, "plasticky" black. It's more of a matte black that almost looks deep gray. Also, in the photos, I didn't love the centered stand. I thought it looked chunky, and I prefer the cleaner look of "feet" on each end vs a single pedestal in the center. I almost bought a different TV *just* because of the stand. I'm so glad I didn't because in person, the stand looks GREAT. Setup was fast and simple. I had everything complete in under 15 minutes. Functionally, it's very intuitive to navigate apps via the included remote, which also supports voice input. Settings are easy to configure. I experimented with the Picture settings to match my preferences. This TV is truly bright, even in my bright room. But the colors look realistic, not oversaturated or cartoonish. The sound quality is excellent even without a sound bar or external speakers. I was able to easily connect this TV to my network, my Google account, and quickly paired my Bose headphones via Bluetooth. The only thing I didn't like was the protective tape around the edges of the screen. At each corner, if you're not careful during removal, the tape tears so that some of it is left in the groove between the bezel and the screen. It is impossible to get it out of the groove once it tears. I appreciate the solid packaging, but once it tears you are stuck with a small piece of tape sticking out of your beautiful TV. Other than that, I couldn't be happier and hope this helps someone else trust a brand you may not have considered before.

Super clear picture and sound is better than my Samsung was, so no additional sound equipment. So one month later and I have not mastered settings but will soon sit down on you tube to set everything. Mean time a really bright colorful screen and software seems to be really good, Remote cast works remarkably better than my old Samsung also. So far I am satisfied for the money this seems like the best deal for a tv in 55-65 range. UPDATE" - After a few months it seems ok but Amazon prime software seems bad and I have to use firestick to watch Prime. There is no uninstall just update but still no go, reset tv and nothing worked. Not sure but power off router and tv for ten minutes and nothing. Anyway everything else is really good so I am happy.

I have been a TV nerd for a while, owned flagship models from, Vizio, LG, Samsung, Sony. This is my 2nd time buying hisense, as I was very happy with my U8N. Dare I say I am impressed again. Performance is upgraded, software is more refined, no annoying bugs so far. Gsync works great, CEC switches inputs like magic without hiccups. Not much to ask so far but you would be surprised how many manufactures don't get the simple things right. The one I received has a perfect panel, 0 defects, no dead pixel, no uneven backlighting, screen looks uniform. I don't think you would be disappointed by the picture quality either, deep contrast vibrant colors, and it can get eye searingly bright. After having 5 different WOLEDs I learned my lesson not to buy another, they are fragile I keep getting dead pixels everywhere. with this mini LED TV you never have to worry about burn it , watch it or leave it on in the background to your hearts content. Connectivity wise, you get 3x HDMI 2.1 this year, if you have a more recent modern AV receiver, you could use the EARC port as a switch. If you use a PC, it even has a USB-C input that can take video signal 4K 165 HZ. I know! no one else does this. Got my on sale for 1k, a bit more expensive while on sale than last years model but I still think it's worth it.

We are very happy with this purchase. The delivery was fast, the setup was a breeze and the picture was crisp. Everything works so well and easy. It came with ton of free channels and sound effect is excellent.

Great TV for a great price. Never ordered a TV from Amazon before so I was surprised when it arrived and working. Picture quality is great, sound is exceptional and set up is easy. Google does it right and Hisense seems to as well. Went from Samsung to this and I am happy with the switch. Oh and the remote is great and high quality.

Outstanding picture and sound. Excellent for viewing sports which I view mostly. Lots of options to customize picture and sound or used multiple default options. This is my 2nd Hisense. Have purchased Sonys, Samsung, Phillips, Amazon Fire and Hisense TVs. This current Hisense rocks the house. Other family members have now aldi purchased Hisense model.
