    TV in a bright room

    Posted by Robert Meyer on 22nd Jun 2024

    The tv is in our sunroom and the old led tv had a lot of glare. I read several “best of “ reviews and the U8 was highly recommended and the product description listed glare reduction. After 2 weeks I am very pleased. The picture is perfect and very clear. Great product for the price.

    Awesome tv

    Posted by John Simpson on 11th Jun 2024

    Excellent picture, dark blacks and extremely bright. It's a little thicker than some tvs but doesn't really matter to me. Reviews say the sound is great for TV sound but I use a hike theater system. Great for the price especially on sale

    A nice 4K mini led tv, with limited viewing angles

    Posted by Adam Randolph on 31st May 2024

    This in my opinion a great TV for a bedroom or room where everyone watching it sits directly in front of the TV, as the more off angle you view the TV the worse the picture becomes since the panel is VA. I gave this 55" mini led tv installed on my wall in my master bedroom, and I sit about 12' away from it directly in front of it, and it looks beautiful. If I sit in my recliner, in my bay window about 5' of to the side the picture is washed out leaving the colors dull and the picture lifeless. This mini led 4k tv with full array local dimming can get super bright, day or night. I do not use the ambient light sensor as I like the picture to be as accurate as possible regardless of night or daytime viewing. I will say during nighttime usage this TV is a torch during bright scenes or shows. There is definitely some blooming during dark scenes around a bright object, although it's not what I'd consider distracting. If your watching this tv straight ahead you will not be disappointed for the price. The tv has 4 HDMI inputs, 2 capable of 4k 60 hz for a 4k Blu-ray player or streaming device, and 2 capable of 4k 120 hz for say a PS5 or Xbox X. Plenty of HDMI inputs if your not using a avr with this tv. The built in speakers and small sub on this U8N sound amazing for such a smaller tv, in my opinion it sounds as good if not better than using a separate sound bar and subwoofer. Watching Top gun Maverick in 4K on a 4K Blu-ray sounded incredible for a tvs built in speakers. I would highly recommend getting this TV if you want want OLED colors on a mini led budget.

    Nice picture and really good sound for a tv.

    Posted by Brittany Wright on 30th May 2024

    Give a nice picture and plenty bright with nice colors. It has very good sound for a tv. Lots of options to adjust things to get it how you like it. Still deciding on the Google UI as it’s the first times using it on my TV, I’m used to the Samsung UI on my main TV as this is in the bedroom. Easy access to the apps and the free internet tv. The only gripe I have is with the menu. It comes up on the bottom of the screen and the writing may be hard to read if you’re not close to the tv unless you have very good eyesight. Beyond that I like this tv and everything else about it.

    Best Smart TV for the Money

    Posted by Catherine Campbell on 23rd May 2024

    Best smart tv for the money. It has all the current features at the right price and the picture is unreal. Built in speakers are so good that sound bar and woofer were not necessary unlike the old smart tv. Also the programmable app button is very useful feature.

    Great TV picture for the money!

    Posted by Sarah Harrington on 23rd May 2024

    Great TV picture for the money, especially if you have it in a bright room. But, you may want to have a better media streamer, this one’s built in OS is a bit laggy to navigate through. Picture quality is a step up from a Sony X900H I own that is 3 years old, however even that older TV’s operating system based on google TV is faster than this google based OS TV. It TV OS isn’t super slow, but it is slow enough that coming from anything Sony and LG have made in the last 3 years will feel slower. I also own a 3 year old LG C1 whose operating system feels faster to me. I suspect Hisense is using a slower processor built into the TV to cut down on costs. I also have an Nvidia Shield, and that runs great on this TV. For me, this will be the way I will do all my media streaming, as it is just significantly faster than the built in Hisense apps running on Google TV. I wish the built in hardware ran faster. I suspect the built in OS runs slower because of the million ads you get while on the Google TV OS, which unfortunately is a lot. Now, on actually running native Amazon Prime 4K on the built in Hisense Google TV OS, it does look great when showing 4K HDR content. It gets really bright, much brighter than a LG C1 OLED TV I have, and compared to my Sony X900H, a LED based TV (though not mini-LED of this Hisense) it has much better local dimming, as this TV has a lot more dimming zones inside, and each LED light is smaller, hence the name “mini-LED”. So what I get here on this U8N is far less backlight blooming when there is a lot of contrast on the screen. This TV does look fantastic when it comes to how bright it can get for sure, butI still think it is behind in overall black levels available in OLED TVs which are literally INK BLACK. However OLED TVs are not a great option if you watch tv in bright rooms, as they do not get bright enough. This TV is perfect for bright rooms, and you will not have to worry about burn in like you do on OLED based displays. Another great step up from other TVs in my home are the built-in speakers on this year’s 55UN8. There is more bass on this TV than either of my other more expensive TVs. It won’t replace a decent soundbar, but it does sound better than built-in speakers from TVs I have in the home that are from 3 years ago. This TV also comes with what I think is a great remote. It is the perfect size and looks great. Overall, for the money, this is a great TV for most people that want a really good picture, and especially that want that in a bright sunlit room! Just keep in mind you may want to opt for a better media streamer like an AppleTV or a Nvidia Shield.
