Hisense UX Review - How Good is This Mini-LED TV?

[@michaelwyckoff7593]

Great review Abby. You do tv reviews so well. Very detailed and exactly what consumers need to know 😊.

[@marrow94]

The "upscale low resolution things" part is really important if you play old games on old consoles like PS3. It's been a pleasure to play PS3 games on my Samsung QN90A thanks to its great (imo) processing. If only it didn't have all the other Samsung problems.

[@Venomonomonom]

I have the same TV in 55" but changed to TCL 65 QM8 bc I got sick of all the cons lol. Ofc there are pros now that I miss.

[@mbe102]

2500 NITS?! Jeeze, I can feel my retinas burning from here :O. But not before my wallet burns up :'(. Maybe in like 10 years. Thanks for the review and the work and effort put into it!

[@jet613]

I get blinded by 600nit tvs and below already. This TV has to be insane! Imagine a white screen popping up for an ad or part of a movie. Except the screen never goes away lol since it's burned into your eyes!

[@chibbyylol]

Note the nits is dispersed outwards and not focused on your eyeballs like a flashlight. It won't be that retina burning lol. Also distance plays a factor; rtings suggest ~12ft for 85" which would have you perceiving it not as bright as you would if you were siting right in front of it obviously

[@ducatii360]

Ya honestly the nits are extremely bright, and I find brightness in the background will shine through the image in the foreground which is kind of unsettling to watch it’s like the foreground becomes transparent. Part of this issues is when you have the brightness lower watching a movie but when you go into the options menu they are max brightness and makes it super blinding when watching in the dark. But honestly I love this TV I just hope there are better firmware updates to address some issues and some better calibration settings for those of us that are new to these things.

I've heard from many people that bought Hisense that the CEC functionality is very quirky . The UX and the U8K. Have you checked this?

Would be interested to see UK pricing and they need to switch completely to Google TV, too many apps are missing in Vidaa OS

I think they might be Sold out in UK 🇬🇧 already . Someone was talking about they having 65” 75” 85 “ etc testing d market launch in uk in summer . N I heard they were not available any more last month in UK 🇬🇧. Ppl arrogant mocking it online , a lot r quietly snatching it off . I got curious n looked up ⬆️ seem they r all sold out ! 😮😮😮

[@martinchitembo1883]

I saw this in the store,i asked one of their attendants to demonstrate audio for me,my goodness the sound as as good as a cheap soundbar and would be okay for movies if you live in a condo rounded by neighbors. I disagree with Rtings on the sound.

[@Yoga_Tv_buying]

Tv sound bar at backing is meant to lean against wall . Not in mid air! 😮which will make u loose most sound n texture 😮😮😮

Ps….what /which store did u go to?? Enlighten us , seems nowhere sells that tv in store except Value electronics, did u go there? 😊😊

[@simon3461]

Yeah, this TV has a high contrast - that's great ! But it has some problems with gradient handling and picture processing and the picture presets. So, contrast isn't everything. Most people cannot see the difference between 400000:1 and 200000:1, but you can see the problems with gradients and processing. Therefore I will go for the Sony X95L.

[@birdtj82]

I REALLY could NOT explain the MOST BAZZAR experience many years in a row going to BESTBUY trying to see “maybe upgrade” looking at SONY LED tv… as sales pperson pitch me the “new tech” , n thinking “how is this looking worse (on none demo) like SO Much worse than my tv at home “ Low contrasts creat weird square fuzzy feeling, like mini Roblox game. They just NOT fluid. So less Crisp. I wish i made more videos over my tv.

[@HyperSin]

I use yall website to compare alot of tvs headphones and etc before i buy something because i want the best of the best, however for headsets i noticed you do corsair headsets but not asus, could i suggest asus be added into the competition since its once of the most popular gaming companys

[@MASKOAA]

How do the mini leds behave in gaming? Is there a loss of performance vs watching tv?

[@Yoga_Tv_buying]

I has 16bit processor (chip), d other brands re 10bit. So it’s going to be fluid . I am not gammer. But those test do NOT reflect too accurate the user end experience . Like like cars with Horse power tork. Yeah that thing is a beast. 😅

[@xm8lover]

Hisense typically has identical local dimming performance in game mode. They only tv's I've seen that have reduced game mode LD are Samsung's.

[@richellebrittain2127]

Too bad it can't pass thru LPCM 7.1 to eARC like the U8K (which I own) and the U7K. I believe those are the only two TVs on the market that support all current HDR formats AND pass thru both LPCM 7.1 & all DTS formats; all other TVs block either one of the HDRs (most notably Sony), LPCM > 2.0 (like this one), or DTS. My pet peeve is a little different from Switch owners (older Blu-rays with LPCM 5.1 / 7.1 tracks, plus Criterions with LPCM mono which my UB820 nominally expands to 5.1 to use ONLY the center speaker), but I don't understand why so few TVs on the market fail to support all HDMI audio & video up to the capabilities of current equipment.

[@birdtj82]

What size U8K do u have. I have seen them.they are just so nice. The 75” ADS-PRO was mind blowing crisp!!!

@langstonbelin Atmos from disc isn't blocked, either TrueHD Atmos (bitstreamed from discs by either console) or MAT/PCM Atmos (decoded by Xbox). The bigger problem is lack of Dolby Vision disc support on both consoles, as well as non-Dolby formats (DTS, multichannel PCM without MAT).

@@Shift4gsmart. If my tv broke down 1 year earlier n i might have bought your tv. I got the flagship Hisense in 2020, 2021 222 lol. I gave 1 tv to my family instead. Yeah dude if u have seen the NEWER GEN HISENE. They are INSANE. I thought that original H9G was So nice on its own since its sent to bdr for 2 yrs. I finally y pulled OUT of it to put beside my 1800 nit one. OMG for the first time that thing I loved so much looked so inferior. I was floored. Seriously u gonna go to store to check out their 2023 models u8K. It’s Signifantly HIGHER Color volume (it has Matching Color Voume with Samsung S95B and SONY A95L, all at 9.0/10 on Rtings). Long time ago when i got a $3000 for 46” quite crazy LED. The sales guy told me “industry secret” that most of them they pitch “how black “ to customers to up sell tv. But black is no big deal most color are not black on tv. Most colors are not against black , its d color VOLUME n Brightness creat transition shades with good blooming control ,,its MORE 3D. That UX has INSANE Color Volume 9.5. That’s like d HIGHEST on tv testing Hystory. D BRIGHTER the tv gets d MORE color volume it needs otherwise it can look like a Tint or pestle (red can look like water melon) . With 5000 Local dimming, Dense tight grip on blooming control, n its a MINI LED, NOT our our old Hisense H9G or your P series. Insane peak brightness (it can produce way more mid range shades for most scenes like 1200-1600 easier n more accurately than all of our TVs that our tv condense/crush color/shades.) the LED laminated walls etc at night walk just will look more butter fluid more comforting. Your tv has same color Volume(on Rtings) as my Original Tv lottory in 2020 d H9G. Beside a 1800nit Newer beast my 65” i pulled my tv out of bdr. For d first time…in shock that my 2020 Vibrant flagship tv looked “WASHED OUT” lol. It lost that previous glory in a snap. That UX will offer def MUCH more butter fluid 3D visual on very subtal way. The videos dont tell. I mean you have QLED, u know when it’s on peak Brighness like this video. The image doesn’t look normal . That thing is a Beast. If they come out a more refined version next yr i am buying it. : 😊

[@TheCanyonhopper]

Be careful, Hisense (and TCL for that matter) north American TV's is different from the rest of the world. Even in south America, some of their models with the same name have different specs. Most had ADS panels, lower number of local dimming zones and uses VIDAA smart tv operating system.

[@Yoga_Tv_buying]

What models do u find have diff panel n spects tho. I thought they were made in Mexico tho.

[@alanclark9000]

vidaa is way way way better. I watched a video on the u8k or the u8h and I have the u8g and I was thinking damn that's way better os then usa models

[@Venomonomonom]

Is that why my TCL QM8 isn't bright at all, even tho every (American?) review claims high brightness?

[@Yoga_Tv_buying]

@@Venomonomonom it MOST LIKELY have “auto brightness sensor “-only in very high end premium TVs like $3000-4000 for the Big 3 company. That most ppl dont or never knew it existed. It up/dims d tv according to d room lighting. It’s like what Smart phone does. Laptops did NOT used to have those sensors before. Now they do. But cellphones always had those sensors. TVs did NOT have those sensor for most part for the cheaper lower tiers Sony Samsung etc. they only had those sensors on flagship n other close to flagship models. So ppl did NOT know what is sensor, why it’s there. Check it out. I dont know about tcl but Hisnse has d “sensor” on out of box. It makes viewing experience much better. If u have VERY bright room n a lots sun light, lights on . Tv will Automatically turn up. I do notice they dim tv a bit more than need to. I put a small light weight led lamp ( i meant to buy tv led light strips at back, but just testing with small lamp) behind my tv . OMG game changing. D sensor accurately puts tv in d brightness best for my eyes. K i dont own tcl. But u should check.

[@langstonbelin]

South America makes sense because the hisense factory is in Mexico and there’s a gap in transportation between North America and South America.

[@stephoreilly]

Wouldn't bother with a Hisense TV. Had the TV for 2 years 1 month, manufacture warranty ran out at 2 years, conveniently the TV has now packed in working and can't be fixed! I paid just over £800 for the TV 2 years ago and now I'm left with none. Surely not a coincidence that the TV stopped working as soon as the warranty ran out? Wouldn't bother.

[@alsayedfakhri4597]

More zones does not mean more better. If you want an led tv, x95l or x90l are the way to go.

[@MikeC-xg8hg]

No.

[@xm8lover]

No more zones actually are better. U8k blows x90l away with blooming control in difficult scenes even though Sony supposedly has the "better algorithm". Sony's zone count is so low on x90l that you can't get around it with all the processing in the world.

[@robertmccloy4811]

I sent back the U8K 100 inch TV The viewing angle is very very limited Just horrible! The video processor is also a concerm

[@dperr338]

This TV is too bright.

[@dperr338]

So Sony X95L is better even with Hisense more superior hardware technology. I just bought the X90L and I’m convinced Sony is the best. Brightness is irrelevant if it can’t produce an accurate picture and is too bright it hurts to look at, especially at night. I don’t get the point in having such a bright tv in the home. You are just going to turn the brightness down.

[@Yoga_Tv_buying]

The X90L is QLED 80 local dimming , matte finish screen 😮, blooming friend . N 60Hz if play pc game 😮friend . Turn lights on , play any Matrix , Star ⭐️ War , Star Trek dark movie , or dark video game u will see those Undeniably weird white Matte tint . Its eye 👁️ sticking :):)

If Rtings says that the UX is better than the u8k, then why does rtings show that they have the same overall score and the hdr movie score on the u8k is higher? Clearly, the rtings scoring methodology is flawed.

[@asole100]

IDK about the overall but for the movies it's probably for the same reason they mentioned in this video. The U8K has better PQ EOTF Tracking.

[@tomtube1012]

Yeah, they lost my respect on this review. My suspicion is that they had already given a high overall score for the U8K of 8.5 before and also given the Sony X95L a score of 8.6. For them to give the UX a higher score than U8K, they would have to give the UX a score as high or higher than the Sony X95L and they don't want to do that.

[@tomtube1012]

The people I know who had a chance to check out the UX all say the UX blows the U8K out of the water.
