Hisense U8N Review | Dangerously Close to OLED?

Does the Hisense U8N mini-LED TV, challenge OLED quality at a fraction of the cost? Caleb explores that question and everything else you need to know in our Hisense U8N review. With mini-LED technology, it offers impressive brightness, deep blacks, and vibrant colors. Despite minor quirks in user interface and processing, its overall performance shines in both SDR and HDR content. While off-angle viewing may not match OLED, its stunning contrast and picture quality make it a standout choice for those seeking premium TV performance at an affordable price point.

[@Caleb_Denison]

Hey everyone! I appreciate those of you who are commenting after actually watching the video as opposed to a reaction comment based on the title. It’s easy to tell the difference. I don’t know if could do a comparison to an LG C3, but def think that would be interesting - until the C3 sells out, that is. Now, who wants to see this do battle with the 2024 QM8??!! Let me know!

[@CDSparks]

please do not water down your reviews by kicking detailed data to theoretical future videos. If I want a generic overview or review I'll read a press release or watch one of the other less detailed reviewers on youtube. You gained viewers because you're one of the best... I know it doesn't fit the profit model or algorithm, but quality over quantity... I hope you truly reflect on these comments before making your decisions. I know how much time and effort it takes to really test and dive into the data, but it's important for the enthusiast that watch your videos for fun or for buying decisions. Cheers.

[@lpromer4796]

Hi value electronics, I currently have a 75” Sony Z9D from 2017, but I want to upgrade to an 85” TV. Do you think this 85” Hisense U8N will be somehow at the same level once Hisense releases the 85” version or should I wait for the Bravia 7 or Bravia 9? Thanks in advance for replying!

[@valueelectronics9390]

@@lpromer4796 Sony's Z9D was a very nice TV. Yes, you would love Hisense's new 2024 85" U8N, but if your budget permits Sony's new Flagship 85" BRAVIA 9 would be the very best upgrade choice. The 85" BRAVIA 7, which is $2,000 lower cost would be a very nice choice.

[@jacoboliver1607]

I must say as someone who works with TVs all day and got a sneak peak into the new Hisense range that the processing is now much better than before the process is now touching areas it didn’t before like word clarity making sure words on screen are not pixilated and many others

[@esaezzat3330]

Give them a few more years and their processing will be up there among the best TV brands. I just got my U7K, and yes, picture processing is slightly a let down compared to Sony's, but not a dealbreaker. Very happy with my unit after some calibration. I'd imagine the next time I'm upgrading to the newer gen Hisense TV (provided this unit holds up well for a good number of years and I am a happy customer) they would have been a top tier brand already.

[@jblaze600]

My U8k processing is pretty great. It upscales sdr/hdr really well, better than my LG C1 & C9. Movies and Sports look amazing. Dolby vision looks good also.

Don’t water down the reviews. I want to hear all the numbers. You need to show more content like gaming, DV, nits etc. You need to show the upscaling from SDR/HDR and sports.

Hey Caleb! Love the review! I have just a small suggestion. Could you include a "reflection handling" section to the reviews? Its a big factor in decision making for consumers.

[@ThouseefHameed]

Love the review! I would like to see you talk about e-ARC and the distribution of HDMI 2.1 ports. I know you talked about 2 HDMI ports supporting VRR and other features indicating those are possibly 2.1 ports. What about, if one of them is being wasted as an e-ARC? TCL QM-8 had e-ARC on seperate HDMI port than the two 2.1 ports. Please include that in your future reviews. Thank you for the amazing review!

Caleb, you sir alerted me to Hisense and YT TV reviews many years ago. You all raved about the U7H. Mine was stuck on the ship for weeks out in the Long Beach waters a few miles out, Thanks Buttigieg. Got the U7G instead & I still love it. However it's not the U8G. Occasionally I've had to power it down and back on because the HDMI inputs don't always work. The sound for instance may stay on HDMI 2 after you switch to HDMI 1. Other than that, love it. Got the 65". Now I'm hot for the U8N. That's your fault too, lol. Thanks for years of great advice and nice personality and genuineness

Ever since I got the TCL QM8 last summer, Ive had to stream everything through my Xbox. I thought HDR and Dolby Vison meant bright and popping pictures. It actually means "make everything super dark". So I use my Xbox so I can switch off Dolby Vision and use the TV's native picture presets which look far better

[@lvproductionsinc9748]

That also depends on manufacturing and panel tech processing choices made. I’m sure this is not the case for all tvs.

I really like the work you're doing. I think that hisense tv are a good invesment for the price. I have a few points for which I would like some clarification. So far I heard that the U8N suffers from postarization. If it is true is it that bad? My 2nd point is the hisense U8N is an 8 or 10 panel. If I am right the the U8K has an 8 bit panel. The numbers of bit are linked with the numbers of colors a tv can display. (My english is not great but decent I think for a French guy!) Great job Caleb ! \L. Clement

[@marksalamon619]

It's encouraging to hear that Hisense is producing an LCD TV with near-OLED performance. (I might wish for better wide-angle viewing characteristics, but I realize that no TV is perfect.) I'm just glad that Hisense includes a 55" model in the U8N series. There has been an unfortunate trend by TV manufacturers to sell their best TVs only in larger sizes. Many of us who appreciate excellent picture quality don't have the wall space to accommodate big TVs.

[@movie_av_impulse]

20:54 why is it when Caleb gives a review and gives it a good review, people get suspicious? Reviewers like caleb and many others aren't paid to say a tv is the best or the worst they're just giving you (the viewer) their best and honest opinion. Now their are others that are paid to say things but Caleb isn't one of them or anything like that. People just sit back enjoy the reviews and stop attacking caleb or anyone that has their own opinion on products. if this is a tv your looking to buy now you have a reference point to go off of before making your final decision. Peace everyone.

Hi there. Can you please mention the panels refresh rates and maybe color bit rate and FRC as well?

[@TheBigRedButton]

Hey Caleb, Thanks for the vid👍. I'm in the UK and am aware specs have been different from Hisence or TCL for different regions. Do you have any data on this kinda stuff? Love the varied content, please keep it up! Phil

[@Kuranghi]

I can't speak to TCL but for Hisense: Outside of design (different looking back and/or legs), speaker setup (the UK model is arguably better usually), TV tuner and OS (UK is VIDAA and US is Google TV) they have been the same spec and used the same panels in the UK and US since the 2023/K models. So I'd assume that will continue for 2024/N models, though not all sizes come to the UK and there may be some minor models in one region that aren't in the other. The majority of them, ie A6N, A7N, E7N Pro, U6N, U7N, U8N and some sizes of UX are in the UK, but no U9N afaik. I'm told this U8N will not come in 55" in the UK sadly, only 65" and 75", with maybe 85 and 100" later in the year. The U7N comes in 55, 65, 75 and 85" with the 100" U7K continuing on from 2023 acting as the 100" U7 model this year. It has 1620 zones and is the same brightness as the U7N so it will still make sense in the 2024 range specs-wise.

[@brunan-gi147]

U9N just got announced. Brighter and better viewing angle and processing...

[@Waltwizzle]

Which is a better deal and better tv the qm8 2023 or this new u8n I'm thinking of getting a 75" qm8

[@anthonywray2830]

You mention Freesync Premium Pro. Will Hisense implement G-sync as they did for the U8H? Is the remote backlit by movement or button push? When you do a comparison does the TV offer center channel with other external audio. With the TV's bass being on par with mid-tier sound bars it would be nice to have some extra bass from the TV while a Hisense soundbar is connected.

[@FelipeRRM]

Caleb, please review the TCL x955! There's so little about it out there, I would love to know more about it and how it compares to flagship TVs like the G4 and S95D.

Great review. Was about to buy the 65" model in Australia until I realised our version doesn't come with Google TV!!

[@suedepup]

The Hisense website mentions 5 speakers on board. You mentioned the subwoofer and the 2 downward firing speakers. I'd really like to know where the remaining 2 are positioned. Facing upward? Facing the sides like the U8K? Thanks.

[@Aradmahogany1991]

One odd but neat feature I found with my 75 inch U8N is that the remote backlight automatically turns on when you pick the remote up which is a FANTASTIC feature I didn't know I wanted till I saw it. Wasn't a feature advertised anywhere that I could see either but its cool. I definitely find the TV speakers to be lacking though. IDK if I just got a unit with a sub par subwoofer, or if I am just used to my 2 15 inch subs in my surround sound system. Also, there is some lag for a minute or so at first startup. The picture quality is AMAZING though, both movies and games. Also, freesync gets rid of any input lag that might be present in games.

[@needsmoreclipping]

Stupid review talks about how bad the viewing angels are, but doesn't mention that the 75" is an IPS Pro panel with superior viewing angles than the other sizes. The black levels of the 75" could be worse though. But we dont know because just like the last few years, no one ever covers the 75" that is usually IPS Pro vs VA of the other sizes. He also doesn't mention that the 55" is a lesser model with inferior backlighting and nits.

[@roguehobbit]

Would you consider taking a look at the 75 inch version of this TV? My understanding is that it uses an ADS Pro panel instead of the VA panel of the 65 inch. I'm considering a Hisense for my next purchase but it needs to be a 75 inch and I would like to know how much contrast, if any, is lost with the ADS Pro panel. That model would also mitigate your biggest complaint with the U8N - the viewing angle.

I picked up a U7N 55" for my room. They are $650 at BB ($150 Off). Replacing my $120 TCL Covid-19 TV.

I’d be curious to see all the settings you’d have it at for watching a movie!

Hey Caleb! How do you think the ULEDx this year will compare at 98”? I am trying to convince myself to go larger (I have an 85 currently) but that 83” G4 is sucking me in….

[@AstroDeathZombie]

I'd love to know what the Peak Brightness setting really does. Is it post processing? adding extra brightness? Or simply setting limits to the Peak Brightness of the highlights? Just looking for the most neutral setting here.

I feel like I got really lucky when I decided to upgrade to the world of 4K and bought my U8H. I have plenty of criticisms and nitpicks, but it seems to be their only recent TV approaching accurate EOTF tracking. By the way, have they fixed the issue with lifted blacks in DV by now? I don’t remember reviews mentioning it on the U8H, but it was a common complaint in forums. (And something I experience as well)

[@davidnclearlaketx]

Thank you for the great review! Now we'll just have to see what the U9N is going to look like midsummer. 👍😁 Come on Prime day! 😂😂

Caleb, love your channel, production quality and depth of knowledge on many fronts. My greatest rub is spending $1500 for a new tube and not trusting non-top tier brands. I've been screwed by Samsung, so that level is not trusted. Hisense, Visio, TCL & others do not give me any confidence that I will be value for my cash investment. I am leery of any brand but Sony and LG. Are my fears justified?

[@rperdman]

For someone looking to buy a new TV soon is this TV worth it over the U8K for watching cable TV and Netflix? Considering the big difference in price since the U8K in 65" is about $900 right now?

[@jasmadahar9089]

I was somewhat intrigued by the development of Hisense televisions, especially the higher end ones. I was wondering if these were becoming comparable to OLED. Having seen the Hisense 7 and 8 2023 televisions, sadly not in my opinion. Nothing that I would be turning in my older OLED for.

On the U8K, i had a similar problem with identifying HDR but I discovered that if you go into the menu and select game menu a panel comes up displaying FPS, HDR ( mode, or no) and VRR. This seems to work for most modes including youtube, this is how i fou d youtube seems to inly play HDR10 or HLG

[@khoale4755]

Is this U8N an upgrade to the U8K? What is the new TCL equivalent, I know in Europe they have the C series C855 Premium QD-MiniLED. Can u do a comparison on these?

[@micker9830]

Biggest issue with the cheaper LEDs is off angle viewing. The Vizio I had awhile ago, looked amazing straight on, but even at the end of the couch, you could start to see a shift.

[@UnixGoldBoy]

I saw this one at Best Buy a few weeks ago and was BLOWN AWAY by it. Still have my doubts about a Chinese brand after reading some reviews about the LCD panel coming unglued from the back panel.

[@Yoga_Tv_buying]

Be careful . Bestbuy employees expose that They r ordered by store to tell ppl” it has quality issues , it has … this that motion color issues “ same sales pitch it’s like written trained response . Customers hear it n pass around . I have $5000 tv before . N I went straight to SONY first after, they looked BAD. Unbelievable! I didn’t trust my judgment, brought family to check They even hated more . We end up checking Hisense . Shocked how premium they r :):) Yeah I got 2 here now , they r solid . Lol I didn’t even buy warranty . If my 3rd purchase turn out to be bad luck , I am still okay lol 😅😊

[@Yoga_Tv_buying]

Lots ppl get jealous now . There ppl got caught falsifying reviews in tv forums claim the flagship is trash etc . Turn out a. Lot of ppl bought $149 , $199 Roku. N didn’t like how they r cheap , n start trash talking the Flaghaip . My 2 tv 55” , 65” cost me $2500 so far :)

[@bungalowtomcat1]

If you had to choose a TV for USB movies USB TV Shows,,,, Free to air low Picture Quality,,,,,,,, And 1080p Streaming APP'S What would be the best in Picture Accuracy Quality Hisense U8N or SONY X90l or x93L ,,, or LG QNED86 or 91 ?????

[@Chimpur]

Not necessarily related to this tv. But with only 4 cdmi ports on most tvs and how some soundbars take one; what is your recommendation for HDMI switches? And what about older equipment that outputs composite or component cables?

[@KamalCharles]

i just got a Sony X90l This Week

[@3DavidA12]

I enjoy your videos and always watch them on release for products I'm interested in, but I'm not a fan of withholding information for later videos. The review should have all the data we need.

[@thebeartruth2010]

Hi Caleb , would it be possible to get an official statement from TCL and Hi Sense to explain why we get an inferior product here in Australia when LG ,Sony And Samsung give us the same product as overseas markets mostly,
