Excellent Quality for the price.
Just lost a Sony TV (high end), after only 3 years. Bought 2 new Hisense U7N TVs (65" & 55") for less than I paid for the Sony. The techs did a great job of installing both TVs on the walls. So far the color and sharpness has been great on both units. We are very pleased and hope they last longer than 3 years.

Solid Performance...at the Center Viewing Angle
?? UNBOXING: Unboxing the Hisense 65U7N is straightforward. It’s ideally a 2-person process for safety, but could be done by one person who has the strength to do so. Snip the straps that secure the lid to the bottom, then open the lid to find additional instructions on the box. Remove the top styrofoam containing the stand, then remove the lid. From there, you’ll be presented with the TV and a cardboard screen protector. Remove the cardboard, and carefully lift the TV out of the bottom styrofoam protector. Attaching the legs is a simple process which you can find in the instruction manual. Gently lay the TV on its back, face-up. then using a philips screwdriver, screw in the legs to the bottom area of the TV. Then clip the stand cover to the legs. Once that’s done, you can set it up on your furniture. ??? SETUP: The software setup process for this Google TV is pretty straightforward. There is an option to use it as a Basic TV if you have no intention of using the integrated smart TV features, or you can set it up with your Google account. I set it up with smart features through the Google Home app via QR code, but there’s also the ability to set it up using the TV remote. I skipped some of the Hisense TV features, which may have resulted in a couple network errors on the main dashboard of the Google TV home page. Interestingly, the dashboard said that I wasn’t connected to the internet, but opening apps proved otherwise. Not sure if this is a Google TV bug or Hisense bug, but even upon restart, the same error message was present. One notable thing is that the remote supports both IR and bluetooth. If you want to use the Google Voice Assistant, you’ll need to pair the remote by holding the Home and Back button for several seconds, since out of the box Bluetooth isn’t paired. ?? BUILD: The build of the TV isn’t anything noteworthy, but that isn’t a bad thing. It’s largely plastic, has thin bezels, and the build as a whole is relatively thin—so wall-mounting won’t yield an eyesore. It weighs around 42.5 lbs, which makes finding a compatible wall-mount an easy endeavor. The Hisense 65U7N is equipped with 2x HDMI 2.1 ports supporting up to 4K@144Hz, and another 2x HDMI 2.0 ports supporting 4K@60Hz. It also supports eARC for a soundbar, optical audio, a 3.5mm output, coax for a TV antenna, and ethernet. Also onboard is WiFi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 The remote has simple controls and is easy to read, especially thanks to the backlighting across the buttons. So even in the dark, you should have no problem finding the right button. ?? DISPLAY: The 65U7N uses a 65” 3840x2160 Mini-LED display that can achieve up to 144Hz refresh rate and a peak brightness of 1500 nits. It also sports full-array local dimming with 384 dimming zones. In my testing, content looks sharp, and contrast is very good, nearing OLED-like performance thanks to the full-array local dimming. HDR content has deep blacks while simultaneously being able to represent bright content without light blooming. At one point, the 65U7N did exhibit an anomaly with some of the dimming zones appearing darker than others, and it persisted until a factory reset was performed. It hasn’t appeared again since resetting, and Hisense support agreed it was unexpected behavior and were willing to replace it. One downside of this display is that it uses a VA (Vertical Alignment) panel which exhibits more color shifting at wider viewing angles compared to IPS or OLED panels. As a result, black will be more accurately represented at the center angle, but it will appear a bit more gray as you deviate off-axis. It’s not as abhorrent as a TN panel, but if your seating arrangement yields wider viewing angles, I think this is one area that could be a serious deal-breaker for some folks. Colors otherwise look vibrant thanks to the Quantum Dot Color, and there are a number of different picture presets in addition to granular controls should you want to calibrate to your personal preferences. Hisense is known in recent years for achieving strong HDR performance on their Mini LED series, but to see it in person is a different story. As someone who normally uses OLED, I was quite impressed with the brightness, contrast and color performance in HDR content. I also noticed in the picture settings that there is a Motion Clarity feature that describes Black Frame Insertion—a more common practice on higher-end 120Hz TVs which inserts a black frame between each frame. Since the display runs at 120Hz natively, this means 60Hz inputs can have reduced motion blur or motion smoothing by inserting a black frame between each frame instead of showing 1 frame for twice as long or using frame interpolation. This feature is especially great for gaming, but it does reduce the overall peak brightness. In my gaming tests, input latency was very low, Dolby Vision activated on an Xbox Series X without issue, and the high refresh rate was detected without issue. And while an Xbox Series console or PlayStation 5 can yield 4k@120Hz, a gaming PC with graphics supporting HDMI 2.1 should be able to stretch a bit further for 4K@144Hz. ?? AUDIO: The integrated audio on the 65U7N is of average quality. The midrange frequencies are clear with dialog being clearly represented, but if you like to use your TV for music or cinematics, you’ll find that the bass response could be better. At minimum, you’re still better off with a decent soundbar and subwoofer with this TV for a fuller audio experience, but for casual TV programming, I might be much less picky. But I appreciate that it supports eARC over HDMI, so connecting a soundbar was a seamless experience. ?? SOFTWARE: Google TV is a decent TV operating system, and I’m glad to see it here compared to some of the alternatives. If you use the Basic Mode, you’ll have limited apps out of the box including Netflix, Amazon Prime and Disney+, but if you sign in with your Google account, you can download additional favorite streaming platforms like Apple TV+. You also have the ability to use Google Cast and Apple AirPlay, which I like to see, since I frequently use both. In terms of software performance, multitasking can yield a few hiccups here and there while navigating menus and such, but I never experienced issues with video stutter or crashing. But as with any TV’s integrated operating system, your mileage may vary. ?? CONCLUSION: As someone who pays attention to advancements in display technology as well as clearance and sales pricing, I think the starting asking price isn’t particularly competitive for the Hisense 65U7N. There are previous generation OLED TV’s that I would personally rather have which can be obtained closer to this launch MSRP. While the 65U7N may be able to reach higher peak brightness compared to some of those OLED TVs, the viewing angles will yield better color uniformity on those OLED TVs, and they shouldn’t exhibit strange local dimming behaviors that I experienced out-of-the-box with this Hisense TV. But make no mistake—Hisense TV’s frequently go on sale well-below their MSRP. If you aren’t concerned about the color shifting at wider viewing angles, those discounts could make this 65” TV a very compelling option. But at its launch price, I feel this TV didn’t quite knock it out of the park. But as that price comes down, I do think the value proposition will make more sense for the right person.

Very impressed with Hisense Mini-LED
I was looking to upgrade my Samsung LED that was a few years old. I did my research and Hisense Mini-LED TV reviews were very favorable and the TV was priced very well. I was amazed with the picture quality and sound! I definitely did not need a sound bar. I really love watching sports on this TV. The colors are accurate and really pop. The TV is VERY bright which is great in my sunny family room. I can't wait to try gaming on this TV and the 144hz panel.

Wanted to like but very disappointed
My TCL Series 6 (2018) had been having issues with backlighting so it was time for a new TV. I read a lot of reviews from Rtings and AVForums about many brands including Hisense TVs. I was bummed my TCL gave out only in 4 years(not common for this brand), I vowed to purchase another brand. Looking at most recommended TVs the top three premium brands (Sony, LG, Samsung) were highly recommended especially the OLED models but came with the premium brand tax. Memorial Day is always a good time to buy a tv and Best Buy had many on sale including the Hisense U7N 65inch for $799. The U8N model got a great review from Digital Trends so I thought the U7N would be a cost effective and good enough model. Setup was a little slow due some needed Google TV updates. Initially, the tv seemed zippy after install. I tried all of my usual streaming apps like Netflix, Apple TV, Prime, and Hulu. The Tv seemed to have a good picture if DolbyVision was used but other picture modes required removing the clarity, contrast, brightness and detection settings to make the picture better. After trying each the picture was still washed out and the cpu would lag heavily which was really annoying. Hulu + Live TV is our main app for sports and TV. I still changed the settings for a day as I could not get a better picture. Watching NHL hockey was not pleasant. The puck would skip until I removed all clarity settings and the tv struggled to even when I was just watching. Finally, I had enough and decided to take the TV back the next day. I really wanted to like the U7N but does not consistently show the best picture unless modified. The tv uses a Mediatek MT9816 which seems to struggle a lot with some changes and apps like Hulu. Changing the channel using the onscreen guide was tediulous. The Best Buy team was very professional and help in the return process. They were also quick to bring my replacement LG C3 I had ordered prior. The premium tv brand tax is worth it! You get what you pay for.

Nice picture and features. Terrible Bluetooth.
Bluetooth has around a second delay. I have a U6H with the same problem except it's actually worse with this tv. It's mind-blowing they can't fix this issue or make it so users can adjust lip sync. My only other gripes are the user experience is confusing and hdr game mode is way darker than it should be. After a ton tweaking I got it looking almost as good as my LG Oled except it's brighter which is great. I am enjoying the 1080p 240hz support but I'll admit the difference between 120hz and 240hz isn't as mind-blowing as I hoped. It does a great job of upscaling. 1080p looks just as good as 4k sitting 10 ft away from the screen. I think the remote is fantastic. The TV is lightweight for a 65" Will this TV last over 3 years? I dunno but it would probably be a good idea to get the 5 year warranty. I wanted a Sony x93l but it was twice the price and 240hz was a nice feature. I'll probably keep even though Bluetooth is broken but this shouldn't be an issue after all this time.

Hisense U7N Review: Mini-LED Excellence and Google
The Hisense 2024 U7N TV is an impressive mid-range 4K mini-LED model that delivers excellent picture quality and a robust smart TV experience. The mini-LED backlighting allows for deep, inky blacks that put the greyish blacks of standard LED TVs to shame. When watching dark movie scenes or gaming with shadowy environments, the intensely deep black levels really make the picture pop. Color accuracy is another standout feature, with the U7N rendering vivid, lifelike colors that look amazing, even on 4K test footage. The display gets impressively bright too, easily combating glare from windows and bright rooms without having to close the curtains. As a Google TV, the U7N has seamless smart functionality with access to a vast library of streaming apps right out of the box. The multi-user support is also convenient for remembering each viewer's preferences. And the built-in subwoofer packs a decent punch for enhanced bass response during action movies without needing an external sound system. There are a few downsides though. While the blacks are impressively deep for an LED, they can't quite match the perfect blacks of more expensive OLED panels. The TV's stand also looks a bit basic and the chassis itself is on the thicker side. Overall, the Hisense U7N represents exceptional value, combining excellent HDR image quality, Google smarts, and robust audio into an affordable mini-LED package. It makes some modest trade-offs in design, but the stellar picture easily makes up for it. For the price, it's mini-LED excellence.

144 gaming tv
Solid gaming performance for PC and PlayStation 5. Colors look great and sound is solid. The arc port doesn't take up the 144 gaming HDMI ports either like other brands.

Great picture
The picture quality and sound are great. The Google TV capability is nice to have as well. I watch a lot of sports and have tried other TVs and this one is a great for sports lovers. I’ve only had it for a couple weeks now but am impressed and thinking about getting my parents one as well.

Great picture with a minimalist design.
The Hisense 65" U7 Series, with its ultra-thin bezel and minimal branding, offers a sleek and immersive viewing experience that complements any modern setup. This design is particularly conducive to my own setup which includes a receiver, ceiling speakers, an AppleTV, and a Home Theater PC. The U7 Series doesn't just excel in aesthetics; it also impresses with its cutting-edge display technologies. The Mini-LED Pro backlighting and QLED Quantum Dot Color combine to produce an image with exceptional brightness, contrast, and color vibrancy. From the darkest darks to the brightest brights, the visual output is perfect for varied viewing needs, enhancing everything from high-action movies to detailed gaming. Speaking of gaming, the 144Hz Game Mode Pro is a standout feature for gamers seeking smooth, tear-free visuals. With support for AMD FreeSync™ Premium Pro and a variable refresh rate, this TV ensures that fast-paced games are rendered with precision, making it an ideal choice for anyone looking to use their TV as a large-format gaming monitor. Connectivity is a strong point as well, with two USB ports located at the back of the TV. Both ports are rated at DV 5V, with one capable of delivering 1A and the other 0.5A. These ports can handle drives up to 8TB for media playback or provide power for LED lights or low-profile antennae boosters, enhancing OTA broadcast reception—a versatile feature for comprehensive home theater setups. While the built-in Google TV platform offers a wide array of streaming apps and services, in a home theater system already equipped with dedicated streaming devices like an AppleTV and/or HTPC, these features may seem redundant. However, the responsive interface and ease of navigating the settings menu are beneficial for fine-tuning the viewing experience, ensuring the TV's capabilities are fully optimized within the existing setup. Overall, the Hisense 65" U7 Series is a robust choice for home theater enthusiasts looking to upgrade their viewing experience. Its combination of stunning visuals, advanced gaming features, minimalist design, and versatile connectivity makes it a compelling addition to any high-end entertainment setup. Despite the plethora of smart features, the primary allure for such setups remains its superb display quality and seamless integration with other high-tech components.
