The BEST Mini LED TV - Hisense U8N

[@MarkEllisReviews]

Who's going to win the Euros? (no cheating if, by the time you watch this video, the tournament has ended)

[@jamesberryman9893]

I bought this TV in 65inch at Best Buy about a month and a half ago for $1k usd and it looks absolutely brilliant! It replaced a 2016 flagship Samsung QLED that was 4 times the price as the Hisense and only 55inch.

[@n.h187]

Steal at that price especially so early on

[@Yoga_Tv_buying]

I am getting 1 myself this year I want the 75” I am aiming for the ADS-PRO panel.

[@elliothalloran]

Crazy that UEFA have licensed TV's to use the Euro's as a selling point for TVs but has stepped back on broadcasting any games in 4K which the previous Euro's and World Cup did for every game.

[@Motor-Heads11]

Facts wild 😅

[@sydneyatutahi3927]

I watched your review of the U8K last year when trying to decide on my purchase decision, and it was a very compelling 👍🏽 This review is also very compelling and i believe you've hit the nail on the head my friend 🎉 Thanks and keep up the cool reviews 😎

[@MarkEllisReviews]

Very much appreciate the kind words - thank you!

[@MrEwanc]

The U8N looks excellent with all the bells and whistles the best TV wizards could ever come up with, and I'm sure it's worth it, I guess... But you really don't need to empty your partner's bank account to get a good Hisense telly. For those on tight budgets you could get the Hisense TV I bought back in 2022 - it is a QLED, has 4K resolution, Dolby Vision HDR, Alexa built in, has gaming mode, casting from your mobile devices or Airplay (no need for Chrome Cast), all the picture and sound settings you've mentioned for the U8N, the same smart TV software and dashboard and apps you mentioned too, etc. etc. It's perhaps not quite the U8N but an excellent telly nonetheless, I paid £379 for the 50 inch version in 2022, the same model is now £599, but still affordable IMO... Great video Mark, love your show, just saying though, there are even cheaper Hisense options that are also great tellys, so shop around folks..!

[@Dawood4]

The difference between a 400 dollar hisense vs this one is staggering in terms of brightness and color. If you're just looking for a TV to just watch casually that's fine but there really is a HUGE difference in picture quality when looking at these higher end TV's. If you're just looking for features and not picture quality then go for it.

[@MrEwanc]

@@Dawood4 I agree with you, the U8N looks excellent 👌🏽 but the picture quality on the lower end Hisense TVs is also very good, not as good as the U8N I'm sure, but still a 50" 4K HDR QLED for £379, that's still pretty good! 👍🏽 Either way you'll be happy, Hisense make good TVs as more people are discovering...

[@georgeblackbeard5528]

Hey guys … usually the U.K. and U.S. versions of Hisense TVs are fundamentally different … is this TV an exception ? Are U.S. and U.K. versions identical ? Thank you

[@Yoga_Tv_buying]

Hisense has made 2023 n forward models globally match . Only diff OS. Google n VIDA .

[@95BlockCaptain]

@@Yoga_Tv_buyingthanks for the info!

[@davidoliver62]

The US version has a different remote. It doesn't have the solar and isn't rechargable.

[@chrisscavongelli]

Where does one find this “buy one get a free 40 inch tv” deal?

[@rogerpianoking1945]

What’s it like wide viewing angle. I’ve have the LG OLED 55B9PLA and that’s superb. The lower end Hisense screens are not that great on wide angle on some reviews which puts me off the make. If the viewing angle is good then this has it all for the money.

[@mmo5366]

U8N super tempting at its price.

[@daveryandub]

Kef lsxii speakers Mark? Have you reviewed them? Missed that.have been on my wish list for a while now 😍

[@turnne]

Have they worked on the banding and off angle viewing ? I own the U8H from 2 years ago as well as the Samsung QN90a. The Hisese is a very good value, however it has something that you cant " unsee"..that banding being a huge issue

[@trewright1482]

I will say I purchased a U7N and it is a beast

[@justeddm]

Nice TV , though had to recommend for those outside north America .. the u8n performs differently according to region. Hope hisense gets to uniform performance like LG especially in its top line up.

[@LewisHolford]

Hey man it looks like the screen is angled upwards slightly. Can you adjust the tilt on this screen?

[@yourobson]

I watched your review with great interest as I'm rather disappointed with my 3.5 years old 65" Sony KD-65A89 BAEP Bravia OLED, for which I paid 3000 Euro, that developed large clusters of dead pixels, that unfortunately Sony will not fix under guarantee. Therefore Mini-LED sounds more reliable to me for my future TV.

[@jimcabezola3051]

I like that clever solar-powered remote control! Sadly, this old man can't wrestle a rig like this into his house. I make do with one of those TINY "pico projectors" projecting a picture on the wall. The tiny form factor allowed me to toss it into my rucksack and take it home easily, at least. Picture's not as good as this, but I can't have everything. A nice bonus is I can charge it all up on solar panels during the day and watch it at night.

[@subtoxic7492]

In Many of the scenes I can see little squares throughout the tv, especially in the lighter colors. Is this the backlighting? Is this normal? Look at the yellow chest of the bird at 4:32 seconds. update: someone told me in a forum that the little squares that can be seen in this video is a product of the streaming service he is using and not the tv. There is more but that was the main point.

[@mac33407]

be aware the low price on Hisense come with high risk of panel failure. I had one for 5 months and the panel developed a blue tint. The warranty service is also abysmal. they requested picture after picture of the set. they never sent out a tech, and made a determination to NOT honor the warranty solely on pictures. the set was never damaged or abused while in use.

[@MarkEllisReviews]

Haha - LOVE this crossover comment ;) Thanks!

[@rodey6594]

How does this compare to Samsung QN85C?

[@michaelwyckoff7593]

Great TV for the money.😊

[@donkey3187]

Its a great tv period.

[@StrangerNoises]

How about its online behaviour, wrt eg: adverts, privacy concerns, etc? Worries about this are a big factor in my hesitating to replace my current TV

[@Yoga_Tv_buying]

I am in north America so they use Google OS> Eveything is thru Google. If any privacy issue, i will seek Google .

[@ofrutsra]

KZbin videos at 60fps feel weird. Don’t know why, but apparently I think it’s weird. TV looks nice

[@vishantbatra]

Why does Hisense ships different types of remotes in different regions of the world?

[@emmanuelokolie6802]

TV OS, Google vs VIDAA.

[@GRIFF22]

I'd go for the TCL C855 over this.

[@AllIlIIl]

why?

[@andreydavydov6417]

VA or IPS?

[@d.f.1064]

55" & 65" have VA. 75" has ips.

[@Yoga_Tv_buying]

DUDE the 75” is NOT IPS. Its called---ADS PRO. ADS-PRO vs ADS are 2 Completely Different product. Like iphone 15pro vs iphone 15. BMW M3 Engine vs the Generic 4 cylinder X3. Totally different outcome. ADS-PRO has --2X time Contrast of ADS. It does NOT have the --mushy or low Contrast issue at all. It has 180 Degree Viewing Angle, FULL Gloss. ADS-PRO has up to 600hz Screen Fefresh Rate😮🎉even more fluid for PC gamming, when ADS has up to 144hz Screen refresh rate. BECAUSE Samsung (their fault) used QN85B-in ADS panel. So when 2023 Samsung Launched Their Flagship in ADS-PRO panel (extremely premium) , ppl ASSUME that its the --Same Panel as the previous year Inferior ADS panel in the QN85 Tier , n put into the QN90 flagship. PPL Freaked OUT. Same with HIsense. Since ppl were NOT sure what TYPE of ADS was in 75” U8K U8N. Some d*mb ass online just put --IPS in the spects. Just being arrogant without fact checking. Thoes ADS-PRO are NEXT LEVEL premium. I have seen it it looked IDENTICAL to SAmsung Flagship QD-OLD S95C. I CAN never do VA again. I am aiming for ADS-PRO once i saw it in person. Tis the most crisp color rich thing.

[@d.f.1064]

@@Yoga_Tv_buying you sound like a good salesman

[@Yoga_Tv_buying]

@@d.f.1064 haha hopefully I can help. I want d 75” Hisense U8 , but I had doubts about IPS/ADS so I dug a bit deeper . :):) Personally I am Aiming for ADS-pro right now . My next one will be either U8 or U9 def ADS-Pro . It’s so nice, once I saw it I was hooked . Lol

[@d.f.1064]

@@Yoga_Tv_buying for me ADS, ADS-Pro is still IPS. Dark Room Performance will never be as good as VA.

[@n.h187]

Good TV but poor value, considering the TCL competitor to the u8n the c855 is expected to launch at £1249.

[@Error-om3fk]

Depends on your location, the c855 for 75" ist twice the price of the Hisense U8N 75"

[@USA92]

That Native Contrast Ratio! Thats all i care about. Notice the pattern boys? When lauded? Good numbers for it. When popular? High numbers for it. When a big seller? High numbers for it. Hmm... Or you buy a sony.

[@rob1261a]

Just don’t buy one! I’ve been working with computers / electronics for over 30 years. I’ve never seen anything fail worse than a Hisense TV.

[@USA92]

Bizzare. So what your saying is a product out of millions is your reason. Please educate yourself about the industry that involves products. We'll wait.

[@rob1261a]

@@USA92It’s well known (Google it) that Hisense is a horribly made TV. Consumer Reports recently removed it from the recommended list because of reliability issues. Just had my 2nd motherboard replaced in 2 months, and a week later having Bluetooth issues. Also in Consumer Reports latest TV ratings, Hisense was #31. There were 30 TVs rated above it.

😂 Sony Bravia 9 is far Better. TCL QM8 is much Better too. The Hisense is Not Bad but it is Not the Best.

[@N3rd_Rush]

Arguments missing. Brain also. Keep it up 👏

[@mikelizzie]

The 2024 model of QM8 yeh… but for an extra $600? I don’t think it’s worth it. Plus all the reviews I have seen have said Hisense performs better on lower quality content like live sports.

[@JesusSavesSinners]

@@mikelizzie The QM8 is far Superior to the Hisense U8N. The QM8 from Top to Bottom is much Better. It has the far Superior Build Quality. It has 5,000 Nits Peak Brightness vs 3,000 for the U8N. The Picture Quality on the QM8 is Much Better. The Colors are All much Brighter and More Vibrant. The HDR is Vastly Better. That $600.00 is Buying you a Far Superior TV. I am Sick of Hearing the Garbage about TCL TV'S upscaling this is Not True. I own a New TCL Mini QLED 4K TV and it does a much Better job Upscaling then My much more Expensive Samsung TV. Do what I did Buy the Top of the Line TCL TV and also Buy a Highly rated Samsung, LG, or Sony TV and Compare them side by side yourself. All Large KZbinrs are working, Getting paid by the Major TV Manufacturers. They Lie about Not being paid. I have caught Major KZbinrs Lying about Not getting paid. This Hugely Popular KZbinr claimed he wasn't getting paid... "Someone asked me if I have to Return the Products I Review. Sometimes I am required to.... but most of the time I can either keep or sell the TVS, Projectors, Screens, I review." He admitted he almost always sold the items he Reviewed. I am talking about $15,000.00 TV'S and Projectors, very Expensive Items. When Large KZbinrs say that their Reviews are Not paid for they are Lying. Beyond getting Free products that they are Free to Sell. They Get Exclusive access to information on New Products. To be able to keep Getting these Benefits they have to be Especially Kind in their Reviews and to make sure to Push Negative Propaganda against their competitors.

"Best Mini LED TV"?? Really Mark. It is good certainly NOT the best for 2024. Check out and compare the Sony Brava 9. Even the Bravia 7 is better that this hisense. So, this hisense is good but not the best!

[@petedogg369]

And who wants to spend $3000 on a 65" Mini LED??? Sony is fucking crazy. Get real dude! For the money the Hisense Mini LED are the way to go. I bought the 100" Hisense U8K for $3000

[@petedogg369]

I will also like to add that the Sony are 2 to 3 X the price..... Are they 2 to 3 times better??? Hell fucking NO !!!

[@Yoga_Tv_buying]

@@petedogg369 yeah i totally agree. Also SONY Bravia 9 also Bravia 7 are BOTH--PESTLE. Human eye retina are meant to pick up MORE--WARM tone than Cold 🥶 tones. Because in nature, forest 🌳 flower,🌺 sunshine ☀️ animal 🦒,skin tones. Faces, mud, mostly ALL WARM tone. The nerve cells that Pick up warm tone at back of our eyes do NOT receive enough Warm colors, we LOSE a LOT of Image resource for --OUR brain 🧠 as PC to process the information into 3D visual. All 3D visual is (learnt by Brain) 🧠 to decide what is what. Anything MORE blue tone than mild Warm tone (Hisense/Samsung), our Brain 🧠 Will see things MORE of 2D than 3D. Thats exactly why Bright spring morning with bright sun ☀️ shade is Always more CLEAR than cloudy day, even tho the cloudy can mid day can still be bright but the cloud block a lot of RED UV but the Ultra violet pass thru . By being PESTLE alone, SONY TCL already looking Less “clear” to our brain 🧠. Everything is processed by Brain NOT dictated by the TV. If the room is warm lighting mid day, sun set . Then the TV itslef is pestle it also makes BRAIN 🧠 hard to judge image in 3D fluently. Just like d same way why WOLED is inferior especially the Dimmer ones C2 C3 C4 that looking at a WOLED in DAY TIME is similar to going hiking peak into a DARK cave that u see but u dont really see see. Things are somewhat noticeable but if the image is moving its just blur. PPL are SOLD with IDEA Bravia 7 Bravia 9 are better. Hisense U8N U9N, UX will UTTER annihilate those matching sets.
