Unboxing Video kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3THfnaOoLqbfdk Sorry about the wireless mic, issue on the gaming footage 😢

[@91Metalhead]

Looking for a TV and I'm not really into the market. Dude you're like the Michael Jordan of TV reviews. Greatly appreciated.

Lol, well we both have bald heads

I second this! (Not the bald heads bit!)

Just bought this tv off the strength of this review subbed

[@gatosgataros2218]

Very helpful videos !!! I work at an electronic shop, your videos help me understand better the products and explain them better to the customers and eventually sell more tvs ...

[@TheMrreese24]

Great review you covered everything, quite awesomely. Got this just to see the difference against what I normally get which is the mid level 1kish now tvs. Brightness, variability and power like you said, but im quite amazed not bad, not good enough for my master or living area but a great office/ game room Tv with instant gaming with Gamepass and a b level picture at least in my opinion. A keeper for sure.

[@betalifetipsquotes3594]

Great Review, Thanks!

[@danieldoyle6001]

Just got one of these in 55” as a cheap tv for casual viewing in the lounge room. I purchased for the smart tv options and Samsungs smart things app. I think Hisense will give better bang for ur buck though. For movies and gaming I got a 75” QN90C with a HW-Q990C soundbar and I’m very happy with it.

[@chrisvillan88]

Great video dude 👍. Ive thought about this TV as i have a cheap LG 4K which is ok for colour and sharpness but its terrible for black levels and contrast. I simply dont have the budget for OLED so it seems this TV might have decent black levels (for an lcd) and contrast

[@donteah1706]

Professional and clear thank you brother - Uk subscriber here and now!

[@DungarooTV]

Very good review and great TV for medium-level entry. If you just want a TV for 4K videos, watch some sports and play games at 4K 60 FPS - this is perfect. I personally don't like the soup-opera HDR thing so have it turned off all the time anyway.

[@brandonEAgnew2002]

There is genuinely no one else I know refer to watch for TV content than you. You are MY tv guy. I don’t trust anyone for this stuff like I trust you. I know I’m going to get the info I need when I click on your videos. I’m interested in a newer and higher cheap ish tv for my consoles. I’m ok with 60 hz as I’m planning on gaming with ps3/xbox 360. I have a monitor for my pc and Xbox series and ps4 slim. That has 180hz so I’m golden. I just want a tv that’s better than my older Hisense, and this is a good deal for me.

[@RussGuiao]

The review is on point, clear and very helpful

[@TechSteve]

👍🏽

[@nickandsue1]

This looks ideal as a bedroom tv, its slim profile should help with wall mounting

[@oneshot4b132]

I just got this today through Amazon, got the 65in, just wanted a good tv for a casual viewing experience and your review gave me great insight that I made a good purchase thanks for that, was an amazing and informative review 👍

[@TechSteve]

You’re welcome

[@jarradharding778]

How is it? I’m looking at getting it

[@oneshot4b132]

@@jarradharding778 I absolutely love it, before it i mainly consumed my media on a gaming monitor so this is a huge leap and its much better. Speakers are decent, and I got the color to what im comfortable with, but overall definitely worth.

[@MrSansari]

@@oneshot4b132is there any backlight bleeding issue in your tv ? Please reply

[@oneshot4b132]

@MrSansari on my model, no, it's not very noticeable if any bleed at all. The only time I do notice it is when the room is naturally lit from outside, but in my case, it's extreme since mine is wall mounted right next to a window, but nothing black out curtains can fix and it did.

[@Wajira939]

I have watch your many videos and you explain everything clearly. Here is my question. What is the difference between CU8000 and CU8100? 🤔

[@OlafurRagnar69]

Picked this up based on this review. It's replacing a 32" I bought in 2008. Suffice it to say I am impressed.

[@huwdavies-tallon3305]

You will screen and TV tech has come on so much since 2008

[@sea4598]

What TV similar do you recommend for 43 inch that is budget. We use a TV when we go camping outdoor. Yes we take it in and out so we don't need a outdoor TV per say. We would like to see somewhat from the sides. That is not a must but would be nice. So many TVs are on sale this weekend so we are trying to get something quick

[@LennonAugusto]

in busy scenes the motion interpolation stop? because in bu8000 this is so annoying

[@jameswoods6900]

Thanks Steve as I was ready to so spend !,000 plus which leaves me more for other stuff!

Between this TV and the U6K, which would you recommend for an uncle with some vision problems that has picture clarity as a top priority? Thank you for having vids on some of the more affordable options!

U6K

[@maniacalgorilla]

Hisense has reliability issues. Very buggy. And very delicate screens.

U7K Hisense. 120Hz, mini led, 480 motion, HDMI 2.1

[@natvarbhaipatel4749]

Brother tell me that this tv captured heat so what is the normal temperature of this tv??

[@whodatking26]

I'm seriously considering purchasing this 55 inch CU8000 and setting up a Klipsch 5.1 surround sound system to go with it.

[@MunKeeButt67]

It's about the same as the au8000, the OS is a bit sluggish compared, but it has great hdmi picture and stream picture, gaming homepage but no ambient mode. It is very bright, and I have a flare across the top mostly in letterbox, but overall once you've got it set up as you want it, it's a great TV. Remote is small, but packed with features 🙃

[@spencergrefe3669]

Great video!!! Question - Does this TV have ambient mode?

[@TechSteve]

Nope, you have to get a q series

[@sandywilson8169]

Been looking at good replacement for prev. TV, must be budget friendly.. Was looking at AU8000 (50") for a while hoping price would drop but it has not. How does the CU8000 compare to other similar spec/price 49/50" sets ?

[@TechSteve]

I haven’t compared them

[@wrd980]

Is there a better alternative for this price point?

[@aditibisht]

Hi Steve! Thanks for the detailed video. :) Which model would be better- CU7700 or CU8000?

[@DungarooTV]

Go CU8000 for sure - much better in all areas.

Is it worth it if buy this tv compare to cu7000? Or thats not diff much?

@@victoramieva586 Hey, so I use the ps5 and the Xbox and it runs smoothly at 120hz! Honestly I couldn’t have made a better purchase for the money I spent considering it’s an 85inch! Most TVs that size with those features cost way more than what I paid!

[@386vwade]

Lg qned75 or Samsung cu8000? What would be the better option? Any advice would be much appreciated? Thanks 🙏

[@trendyprojectors4743]

The LG QNED75 is the better choice for picture quality, while the Samsung CU8000 is a better value for the price. If you are a gamer, the Samsung CU8000 may be a better choice due to its lower input lag.
