Don't forget that it's TCL CSOT that supplies the screens for Sony and Samsung. The difference lies in the image processing, that's all. The assembly standards are the same for all brands.
Just bought a TCL 65 QM8 so I can give my LG 65 C1 to my parents. WOW. I do not miss the OLED at all. Image quality is very close but the brightness is instantly noticeable, and no auto dimming in games! All this for $900? Hell to the yeah.
i Have a hisence 55 led 4k and i love it,a lot of people don't know HISENCE and sharp are one
Thanks to this channel I decided to research the Hisense tv’s back in 2022 and I decided to purchase the Hisense U7H 55 inch for my main bedroom and that TV is the best purchase I made last year, the brightness and the colors are amazing! I love technology and I also have a LG CX OLED in the living room but with Hisense and TCL out there offering these prices we don’t need to spend that much on a TV, Hisense and TCL are great tv’s and they are affordable compared to Samsung, LG and Sony. I highly recommend the Hisense U7K for a bedroom and the Hisense U8K for the living room.
I agree too! I have a Samsung 65” qn90A for the living room, which is cool, but last year pulled the trigger on Costco’s Hisense 55” U7H, best decision for the money for my bedroom. Pretty nice picture, google tv, pretty damn affordable… super happy so far. I would try TCL’s QM8 in the future, once the price drops.
How big of a difference is the U7k to the U8k? For example, buy a 75 inch U7k for 899 or the 65 inch U8k for 899?
My QN90A that’s less than a year old has dimmed considerably and even with a reset, I can’t fix it. Any thoughts on what I should get next? I kind of want oled but worry it won’t be good in a bright room.
Can't wait for your content on the 98" TCL QM8!
I bought a TCL last year after being strictly LG for 15+ years and I wasn’t impressed with the brightness so I returned it. I may give Hisense a try though.
Great info! could you please review 98" Samsung Qled Q80C? Is the contrast black level great? Since you've had the TCL for awhile now, what's the downside of 98" TCL R754? Thanks.
I have the 55 in 546 series TCL. Hav this tv almost 2 years. No problem. No dirty screen affect. TCL and Hisense haven’t had any problems with. The price is right. Which TV outside of Sony has the best skin colors, not oled.? I’ve seen your tv page. It’s very helpful. Thanks
I own 3 hisense tv's, 2 google based and one ruku. I did my resource and found that hisense to be a better tv than tcl as far as my needs go. I have yet to run into any trouble with them. I have the 55" u6h and the 75 "u7h which is very bright but worth it.
I personally got the 65” Hisense U7K it’s mini led and I have been pretty blown away and it’s only $729 right now and the screen is a 120/144 screen
The fact that I can play Last of us 2 Fidelity mode in VRR 40fps with HDR nit brightness rated at 1000 nits for under $1000 with the hisense U78K is just incredible. I had the TV for a month and I cant see myself getting any other TV for my PS5. If you are not using the TV for gaming than the TCL Q7 makes sense.
@@tokyogamer5825 could you please tell me if its good for ps5 in bright rooms?😅
@@edinsvr8878 Buy the TCL Mini LED instead. Hisense is trash & their costumer support is non existing.
As the owner of an U8H, the Hisense TV is definitely good until I had to get a new one because the corner got smacked with a shipping box it flickers when you turn it on but when you just put it into sleep mode background it stopped so you can watch the TV I'm kind of thinking of upgrading to the new U8K but the U8H is still cheaper this is going to be in a 65 inch
Do you think Black Friday will be a better price on the Hisense u7k 75” Amazon has it for 997 for the prime day deal
I am happy with my Hisense 55 in U8G, although i would have like to gone with the 65 in but only able to fit up to 55 in on my wall.
i just got the hisense u8k 75" and it has a wounderfull pitcure
I own the LG C1 77”has been great but honestly the price doesn’t warrant the premium compared to a larger cheaper TCL QM8 85”, that’s why I went with the TCL for bigger and brighter for way cheaper.
You’re comparing an OLED to an LED.. very different tvs my man.
@@brockgreen4051 I totally agree however, I’d rather sacrifice some deep blacks and contrast for a dramatically larger immersive size. If you want an OLED at 100 inches that is going to be as expensive as a car, honestly not worth it for me.
TCL and hisense have come a long way and have improved greatly every year. Samsung and sony will need to adjust things if they want to stay competitive because tcl and hisense are right on their heels with their tvs. If they get their software and motion upgraded, they'll take over the market. I will probably get the 75 inch hisense u8k. That panel is a ips aps panel at that size. The 55 and 65 inch are VA panels so that is also something to consider. I've heard great things regarding hisense this year so I'm pulling the plug on it.
My next TV is going to be a Sony for the processing. I’ll happily take some lifted blacks and blooming over black crush. Sony tvs also seem to show more details.
@@dperr338and the quality it's working in 5 years
The next time TCL or Hisense makes a TV even CLOSE in quality and picture quality to a SONY will be the first. Actually it will never happen.
@@steveludwig4200 it's already happening. The only thing better on a sony is their motion and algorithms for back light control. It won't take long for others to get close or even pass them. Look how far tcl and hisense have come now. Give it a few more years.
@@Papa_WooWoo Difference between Sony and ALL the other is longevity and experience in the business of not only audio and video but PRODUCING professional content (movies) audio and video so they know FAR more about the entire process than any other companies COMBINED. And the fact that consumers obviously understand the quality differences by owning their Sony TVs and average of 6.7 yrs and LG and Samsung are closer to 3.1 and TCL/Hisense are at 2.7 yrs. Also it is a fact that Sony consumers are much higher income generally and older (45-65) and therefore far less likely to post on "internet forums" like this one than newer brands like the others.
I purchased my first HD TV 20 years ago...A two thousand dollar Mitsubishi the size of a refrigerator... Since, I have purchased several LG, each easily over 1,200... I needed a 55 inch for my office and did the unthinkable...I bought a Hisense... I wanted the U8H but had to get the U7H because of availability... It was only 500 dollars.... Cost/performance ratio, best TV I've ever owned, easily. Love your content, you both take care.
How has the Hisense aged? Still going strong?
@@FarhoodEnsan It's great... Not a single issue... It cost $600 but that included home delivery and 5 year Geek Squad Protection from Best Buy... I have 2 larger LGs that I'll replace in the next year with something around 80-100 inch and I'll probably only look at Hisense or TCL... Take care.
@@david5544g Happy to hear! Both these companies have great deals for extra large TVs, hopefully the positive experience continues!
@@david5544g sorry could i know what inch did u buy? and from where did u buy the U7H ?
What you think about
TCL 75” Class Q Class 4K QLED HDR Smart TV
I'm running a 65" QLED Hisense U6GR (Canada version). 2 years strong so far. Minor "dirty screen" when watching golf or hockey. No big deal in my opinion as it's great for movies. Only negative thing I would say is that this TV is very bright but watching Dolby Vision or HDR it seems to dim down a bit too much to make other colors pop more. But for the price I paid I can't complain.
@@richh650 Yea, I have never had a TV fail on me my entire life. Only replaced because the technology was outdated. Previous tv's were Sony, Hitachi or Toshiba. Had a Panasonic plasma previously too. I'm taking my chances on the Hisense brand but so far so good.
After a frustrating experience with Samsung (smudges on the screen and very low performance) I went to TCL and now I have a Hisense. Sorry, but I can´t see me going back to Samsung, LG, Sony or any traditional brand anymore. The best bang for the budget market is now full of good choices with TCL and Hisense...
Is it possible to get 120hz in 2160p in normal use if it is used as a monitor, that is to be the primary monitor, or is 120hz only for gaming fake 120hz in 1080p?
I’m upgrading from a nanocell lg and I do 120 hertz on Fortnite on my ps5 and low lag mode , but I’m trying to upgrade and get better and lower lag so would I get the tcl q7 or Hisense
Since there are no perfect TVs, the model that you decide to buy is the TV that offers you the most features you really want and has the fewest "compromises" that would bother you. I don't deny that both Hisense and TCL make excellent LCD TVs that offer great bang-for-the-buck value in their price range. I will say, though, that my personal preference is for OLED and QD-OLED TVs since I'm drawn to the high-quality image they display, and in my particular situation I don't actually need the extra brightness that LCD panels provide. (I'm also willing to pay extra for a reliable, long-lasting TV.) I realize that other folks have different criteria and I can understand how a Hisense or TCL TV would be the perfect choice for them to buy.
That is why I lean heavily towards Sony. I bought an entry model back in 2018 for 460 at Best Buy. Sure it's not perfect, but darn good. I grew up with Sony TV's with my parents. They would either sell the old one or give it away, they never broke.
@@paulcarlin5181 My sister owned a 1080P Sony Trinitron flat-screen CRT that was built like a tank and worked without a glitch for 20 years. It was still functioning perfectly when she finally traded it in for an OLED. I was sad to see it being hauled away, but unfortunately, neither of us had room for an extra TV...
Nema danas kvalitetnih televizora,nakon 5 god garancije jednostavno rikavaju
Scottish viewer here.. like your videos, nice work.. the Hisense range have my attention for a future tv. 🤔📺
Only reason I'm going with the hisense u8k cause i like the hdmi port's aren't on the back like the tcl qm 8 . I'm getting the 75 inch version
Great video. It's important to have these discussions about various considerations that have to be taken into account instead of making a purchase based on brand loyalty alone.
Personally: I don't consider LG because of the unintuitive mess that the WebOS is and their Wii-like remote control. More importantly, Sony and Samsung TVs generally don't offer the same performance in blooming and black levels of a Hisense at the "SAME" price point. Also, it doesn't seem to be the case that Samsung or Sony upscale SD content significantly better than Hisense or TCL unless someone on RUclips can actually show that in a comparison video.
Great information as always. Waiting for black friday for s95c
First of all. You need to research Samsung, LG and Sony. Although, these 3 are Korean and Japanese companies. They are still made in China and in many cases Mexico.
Best Quality:
1 Sony
2 LG
3 Samsung
4 Fire tv
Best Value:
1 TCL
2 Hisense
3 JVC
Best Budget:
1 Element
2 Haier
Both TCL and Hisense have stepped up their game this year and a lot of people are leaning towards these 2 brands because they are affordable and both have excellent features. Really are a value for money options. 😊
Yup Sony and Samsung are becoming unaffordable for people. In Canada the 65 inch tcl Q7 is 999 and the Sony x90L is 1799.
I'm buying the hisense u8k 77 inches because it has ips panel and does not have forced samsung soap opera motion
@@oilerguy5494 wow that's a lot of extra money for not that much better performance. You can buy 2 Hisense tvs for the price of 1 Sony.
@@oilerguy5494 Especially Sony they always have the most expensive tv release prices.
I just bought a 65 inch Hisense U8K for my apartment. Did some adjusting and it is fantastic. Best TV I have owned. The sound is great as well but still put a sound bar on it. For just over a thousand dollars it is worth it.
I've had a bottom tier Hisense 50" from Costco for about 5 years and it has been fine. In the past year had some wifi issues, but seemed to be having router issues around then too.
I bought a bottom tier TCL 40 in. firetv during Black Friday. 5 years is a lifetime now & I bet everything has improved since then through necessity. We will see ?
Is HISENCE U7KQ better than tcl c745?whats your opinion?
Need a 50 inch. Which ones you recommend
FYI - Hisense 85UX is available in the US. I have had one for about three weeks.
I really don't see that tv being better then the qn95c.
I’m opting for the X90L solely for the upscaling capabilities with low res content as well as for the Nintendo switch. Preservation of shadow detail over black crushing is fine with me too. Overall solid choice which is worth waiting for a sale.
Nobody using upscale on video games. People in pc world are sick of DLSS.
Just be aware that you're not likely going to want to use VRR for gaming with the Sony, because of the way it impacts processing and local dimming, and the HDR isn't great. For gaming, I'd probably go with one of the other two. For movie and TV watching, though, yeah, probably the best bang for your buck.
@@alanclark9000 Not true at all. As UE5 games start shipping DLSS will be even more important.
DLSS is awesome. It saves a LOT of resources for other effects and looks better than native with anti aliasing added in a lot of cases. Brute force methods of the past were things we HAD to do. We didn't have deep learning AI. @@alanclark9000
Graphics have hit a near dead end in terms of graphics vs horsepower. It gets less and less every new gen, diminishing returns. Tech like this lets us do more with less, that's the key to move forward.
We are already pushing the limits of size on our cards too lol. Moore's law is almost done and the diminishing returns is evident.
It's "fake" if you want to view it that way. Personally I see it as something advanced we simply never could have done at any other time in history, because that is also true!
Can agree on this one. I have a 90K and watch a lot of cable TV and HD channels. The upscaling of Sony is impressive. I know cause I can see a friend's Samsung and when it'S not 4K, the picture is just OK. BTW, you can have the saturated popping Samsung look on a Sony. I know cause I like Samsung colours.
Just starting the video and have been hoping someone made this exact video. Props, B.
My question is the Hisense audio quality sound better than the TCL without using a sound bar?
Great video Brandon. I still have a HD antenna on my roof. The specs on these TV's usually do not tell you if the TV has the new ATSC 3.0 tuner in it. How can you tell if a TV has this built in? Thanks!
My U7K has the Atsc 3.0 built in, it says it on the bestbuy site
what tv stand do you have?
Loved my TCL, for about 2yrs when the tuner failed. Now it's a monitor I didn't want.
Im gonna go for the 65 inch Q7 today. That will go in my living room while ill keep my 48 inch C2 in the bedroom. Thats more than enough tv for me!
Wich is beter at all
Hisense Qled 55a7kq 55”
Or
TCL 55P61B 55 inch 4KLed
Please answer Because I want to buy one of them now and I do not know which one is better in all respects, especially for gaming
I got the 65" U8G a couple years ago, I'd certainly consider Hisense again.... TCL doesn't cone without it's Upside, but my First Hisense is gonna be Hard to Beat....
I concur, still going 2 yrs strong with my 65 inch U8G, with no issues. I just wish someone could do a comparison between that and U8K to see if we are missing out on that much as U8G owners.
I think the u8g was a little harder for me to dial in the motion. The u8k isn't hard to do it, it's very good. That was my only issue with the u8g
@@BTheInstaller i agree, the motion was always the pain point with this model, but it did vastly improve with a surprise update they put out this summer (the one which they added game zone features finally). Would u say the U8H vastly improved motion? And does the U8k improve it even more? Surprisingly u8g still beats out alot of led tvs with native contrast (rrtings) but doesnt matter as most will use local dimming. Also EOTF tracking was bad for U8G based on rrtings but U8H onward fixed that. Colors n black levels still great with u8g, makes my old c9 look washed out but im ready for qdoled that everyone is raving about. Hisense/TCL still get my vote for having both dolby vision and hdr 10 plus….why is it so hard for big name tvs to do the same?
Is TCL C7 same as Q7 but just for European market?
What's your thoughts on TCL 98" C735 4K QLED 2022🤔
How is tcl and Hisense colors. I recently bought a samsung cu7000 and the colors seem washed out.
Would you change a 77c1 for a hisense 85u8k ?
Replacing a 10y/o Samsung. Looking at Hisense or Sony. Budget is $1500. 65-75 inch. Thoughts/recommendations?
I went with the Hisense u8k 65”. It’s been great! Would’ve gone w the c2 but wasn’t in the budget. But I’m very happy w the u8k. I upgraded from a Sony 950g. I don’t want upscaling and always had it on low in the Sony. Colors were more accurate on Sony out of the box but I still tweaked the settings the longer I had it. I’ll do the same w the Hisense and already made a few tweaks. Love the gaming features which was lacking from Sony. Even w their current models
Upscaling isn't something you can turn on and off (Sony reality creation is somewhat different, upscaling + adding AI elements).
If you're on a 4K TV and you watch anything less than 4k resolution (3840 x 2160) it HAS to upscale else it'll either be teeny tiny on the screen or a blurry mess if blown up
What type of tv stand is that ?
Hisense U6K 55" or TCL Q5 65"?
Is it worth giving up miniLED for the extra size? Will it be that noticable?
Unfortunately my TCL series 5 was accidentally damaged, and apparently the Q series are a downgrade unless you pay $650+ for a Q7, and series 6 are impossible to find. So finding a replacement, the Hisense U6K seemed like the best option. Got it for $350 but thinking I need extra size. The Q5 65" is $400.
samsung s90c oled 65" or TCL QM8 75"?
Does anyone know what TCL QM8 is called in the european version ?
Was at Costco today and they have the Sony xr75x90ck marked down to $999. Is this a good tv? I want 85 but she says 75 no bigger
I've tried TCLs and had bad experiences with them in the 1st thru 3rd year. Unstable software, random restarts, memory issues, freezing, and ultimately bricked.
Sounds like mine. Loved it for a couple years then developed those problems. Never again.
*_I understand TCL manufacturers Amazons Fire TV. What do you think about those? This video actually opened up my eyes to lower end TV 's so, I purchased the 75 inch Fire Tv OMNI QLED for $899 and so far I love it. Couldn't see spending 1500 to $3000 or more for a TV and since I'm not into gaming I settled on the Fire TV Because it was a little cheaper than the 75 inch TCL and Amazon gave me 12 months 0% interest !!!_* *_Thoughts..._*
Which one is better for gaming?
I have a TCL 65" P638 (LED TV, 4k60 at around $700) it was worth every penny. It has HDMI 2.1 because it supports ARC/eARC and ALLM. It also has AMAZING viewing angles for a LED TV and my whole family loves it. It has HDR10+, HLG, Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, HGiG, Dynamic Color Enhancement etc.
I have no idea what yellowing you were talking about but i have none of it. Maybe you need to change the picture settings because you should never leave those default.
It's a shame that TCL doesn't get much recognition. It's a great company. Hell, they make the fastest tv's and the BIGGEST TV's in the world! (TCL's QLED 4k *144hz* tv's and TCL's giant 115" TV, TCL 98" 8k TV)
Where did you get that cap from please
I just ordered the Sony X95L. I'm hearing great things, and I'm really curious how it handles RUclipsTV NBA games. I primarily watch tne NBA, some football, and movies and shows via streaming apps. I'm hoping it will be a 10 year TV for me to justify the price, although i got a great deal on it. Appreciate your videos, B.
Yes Sony X95L is the best MiniLed TV even if it does not reach as much brightness as the others. Quite a few users have spoken about how great the X95L is, and one user also mentioned that he also has an OLED LG G2 and a Sony A90J at home, and now that he has purchased the X95L, he says that it is certainly the best TV of all three.Of all the TVs on the market, from OLED to LED, I would definitely prefer the Sony X95L, but I can't afford it or I would have to take out a loan to buy it.
@@easyrider76 thins for the feedback. I did take out a loan :)
There is no question it would be that 10 year tv. Reviews split hairs but people love that tv. Andrew Robinson has an extremely in-depth review on it. I was exhausted after watching it, so props to his crew for making it. 👏
@BTheInstaller can you get your hands on the philips 908 oled with MLA?
@@BTheInstallerjust don’t know if I can justify spending 2.5x the money, I don’t think the image is going to be 2.5 times better
My thoughts as long you watch high quality content you be fine with these tvs
I disagree, especially after owning a top of the line Hisense. Motion is off, local dimming is off, gaming is definitely off, just too many compromises.
Lg Oled, Samsung Oled or high end LCD and of course Sony Oled and some real good lcd models as well.
If you want to save money for a descent/average tv just get a cheaper TCL, then buy a flagship Oled from any of the major 3 brands once you have the “coin”
Motion isn't great, but you probably just had a bad panel. I had last years U7H and U8H, which the latter I still own, and they were both amazing! Good black levels, brightness operating system. Of course you have to calibrate it to get the best picture but they're definitely great televisions.
I mainly buy those two, with two additional Onn units. No issues with any of them, with my 65" TCL, and 58" Hisense going strong for 5 years and 4 years respectively.
Amazing! Keep it up brother
I just bought a 65 TCL qled and I am very happy with the TCL, I previous only had Samsung TV's but the TCL for the same price as the Samsung had so much more features.
I have a hisense and a tcl and they are both very good
My parents just bought the lg qned 80 65 inch! Please do a video!! Not many of them out there
I just ordered the C645 55 inch TV just waiting for to come but the specs on it are nothing short of amazing as it can use Google TV and Alexa devices and can do 120hz game accelerator HDR 10+, Dolby Vision, QLED, MEMC plus more features for only £400
So how is the tv ?
How is the tv for gaming
I have a limited budget for a 65”. Quite struggling to decide between a TCL C845(I am not in US), Hisense U7K or U6K or a lower end Samsung or LG QLED model
What did you get? I don't know what to get between U7K and C845..
The Q7 65 inch is $700 at Best Buy right now and very tempted to get. I have an older Vizio e55 that’s starting to show it’s age and can’t decide if I should pull the trigger on the q7.. I only stream, since I game on my
Monitor. Can’t decide!! Upgrade now w/this Labor Day sale or wait for Black Friday for possibly a lower price point?
Just pulled the trigger. Sale ends today. You might save another 50-100 on black Friday. Why wait?
Low quality . What do u mean low, like 480 640 720? Or 1080 ?
Cuz too confusing .
I have the 65 inch TCL 8 series mini led from a few years ago. It gets extremely bright for Dolby Vision. How does this compare to the newer TVs if you don’t need 2.1 or 120.
Have you had any issues with it? I head from a lot of people that TCL and Hisense TV’s have a lot of screen issues and crap out quickly. I’m looking at buying the QM8 but this is a concern
@@oldmanhendo7183I’ve not had any issues with this tv whatsoever.
I want to buy the TCL C728 i hear that its 120 hz and its an overall good tv, what so you guys think? I wanted to buy Hisense u8 hq but i saw that the UK version is bad and i don’t know what to buy
I have a 40 inch TCL from 2014 one of the HDMI ports went out in 2017 but it even after buying a new remote in 2019 it's still not bad for a Full HD TV. The Hisense TV that I upgraded to was a 43 inch 4k made in 2019 and it was great until I had to sell it. Not really an apples to apples but I like the fact Hisense didn't need a new remote or have HDMI port go out.
I just bought the TCL c745, was gunna buy the hisense u7h and im so glad i got the tcl its an absolute belter. For the price i paid for it i really am impressed. My series x seriously looks sexy on it.
Hi, can I ask you what's your experience a month later? I'm also between c745 and u7h, but we have a sale on c745 right now and I'd like to game on it occasionally.
@CalebForevaHUN it's a good tv but when I was watching wide-screen movies the bottom black bar let would let light through, more grey than black so I returned it and went with a samsung oled which is has an absolutely gorgeous picture.
Apart from the black bar issue it had a great picture I just found it annoying.
@@paulmidgley8040 Thanks for the info! Well I just read some bad stuff from other sources aswell so I think I'm going to skip it.
Do all tcl have chromecast built in?
I have TCL in living room and Hisense in bed room. I have no issue other than Hisense having VIDA OS. I use google Chrome cast to fix that. So yeah for the money. This is so far best 2 brands i would recommend
I’ve had Sony , Samsung and now have Hisense and TCL. They work. I asked a lady at Walmart who I know worked there for several years what her opinion was on the TVs they sold. She said buy the cheap one. They only last 3-5 years now days no matter who’s name is on them . I’d buy a made in USA Zenith that was serviceable if given the choice. But we gave that up years ago.
I am curious if that is true on post 2020 or post Covid TV's. I have a 2018 SOny entry model and its going strong nearing 6 years later.
Just 3-5 yrs? 🤔 that seems pretty low
@@paulcarlin5181 There's probably a great deal of luck involved as to how long modern smart tv's last. I had a 43" 4k Sony Bravia I bought 4 yrs ago that lasted just past 3yrs before the screen went dead. Wasn't repairable. Then there is a friend of mine who bought a a 43" 4k Hisense a year previously to my purchase and that's still going strong 5 years on. Imo that would suggest that the name doesn't seem to matter, it really is just down to luck. Having said that, possibly it may make a difference what day of the week a particular tv is made, ie a mid week manufactured tv as opposed to a Monday or Friday manufactured tv. Just a thought.
I returned my 85QM8 a couple of weeks ago and just ordered the 85U8K. I did love the picture quality most of the time, but Dolby Vision was not great during the day and the sometimes the procesor would struggle a bit. Did I make a mistake by doing so? I do feel like swapping 2300 dimming zones from the 85QM8 for 1300 85U8K sounds very significant. But I was hoping that the slightly better processor would make up for it. I mostly stream sports, movies and tv shows, but considering purchasing a PS5 for the holidays. What do you think? Im specting the 85U8K in 1 week. Im currently using the X90L, and while its amazing in SDR, it doesn't feel as punchy as the QM8 did. I was hoping the 85U8K would be a mix of both the X90L due to the slight up on the processor over the QM8, and more punch than the X90L 😂.
How is it going with your new U8K? Is it better to you than the QM8?
@KennySrZ 24 hours after a side by side comparison of the 85u8k vs 85X90CL, I like the 85X90CL better so far. I have only streamed YT, Netflix, Disney+, and the MLB atbat app. The U8K is brighter in HDR only and louder. The X90CL loads up content faster, clearer image, and better colors, including blacks. The U8K seems to lift the colors for whatever reason, even in vivid mode...
I recently purchased the Hisense U6H 75" for $700. I am completely satisfied with my purchase. It replaced my Samsung 65" which I moved to another room.
There is Hisense A6H 55inch for sale for 300$ should I buy it ?
@@sofy6657 It really depends on how you use your TV's. The particular model that I purchased does not have Bluetooth for headphones/headset connectivity. If you do phone mirroring with your TV'S you may not be able to with your new Hisense.
@@curtiswhite2872
I'm also confused about what brand is the best
TCL p735
Or
Haier P751 (QLED)
Or
Hisense A6H
All of them is 55 inch and the price is about 300$_400$
I have a daylight use what would your choices be?
I have the Hisense. Love it but I'm going LG or Sony for the OLED when the budget allows
I grabbed a TCL 85-Inch Q7 85Q750G 2023 to add to my nakamichi dragon :)
I bought the top of the line Vizio M series in 2014. An amazing 1080P panel plus it came with 12 3D glasses. I bought the Vizio OLED with that in mind and while the picture quality is nice there are way too many software issues.
I agree on the software issues, mine is only two years old and I'm going to dump it and never buy another Vizio tv again.
@@N2LADIES55 I mainly use my Vizio for gaming but Im thinking about moving it to the bedroom and getting one of these for my gaming tv.
Currently experiencing that now w/my ‘16 e55.. in market for TVs bc of that software lagging these days
*Ditto for Vizio software issues!* I am forced to upgrade from a 55" Vizio M55-H1 purchased in 2022, due to a series of buggy software updates this summer. After opening several support cases, they gave me a Full Refund. Fortunately, it was purchased from Samsclub in the USA and came with 3-year warranty! I am considering Hisense U8K, TCL QM8 or Sony X90L, and hope their software is better than Vizio's "SmartCast" interface.
I was in doubt between the 83c3 oled for 2800 euro and 98c735 tcl for 2500. I just ordered the tcl, im looking forward to see how it looks. Had a 75q70r samsung before and now a 86qned916 for the last week. The qned is ips and has horrible vertical banding (DSE) and contrast is not great.
The u8k comes in 55, 65, 75, 85, and 100 inch with everything but the 75 running a VA panel. I am surprised at the performance of the ADS pro on the 75" in your review, but I suspect the other sizes are better except for viewing angle and "dirty screen"
I wish someone would test the high end Hisense A9H OLED. Going to buy Panasonic LZ 2000B 65in at the end of the year.
Tcl and hisense is for people like me, i rarely watch TV or play game, I just want a tv with decent picture quality for below $1000
Three year warranty and the TCL died 3 years + 1 LOL. That said a Samsung blew after two years and another Samsung is going strong over 15 years. TCL seems good.
I recently got a 55" TCL 835 to use for console gaming. It's pretty good but I'd say 95% of the time I have to re-enter my WiFi password. It just won't stick and it drives me crazy. Lucky that I rarely need it to connect to the internet but it annoys me just the same.
Have you had any blur issues in VRR? I’m looking to get the C805 which is the inbetween for c745 and c835 and a lot of people have been complaining about ghosting/blur with VRR turned on.
I have the Samsung 95B (65 in). For almost 2000 dollars, it is way too buggy. I have had issues with the screen optimization being way too intrusive as well as random green bands appearing. I will either get a LG, Hisense, or TCL for my next TV.
You must have got a bad one...Most reviewers of the S95B says its still in the Top 3 OLED tvs on the market even in 2023...I would make Samsung swap it out for another one...Also have you installed any of the firmware updates?
@@petedetraglia4776 I installed the updates and that is when the trouble started. I already had a technician come out and fix it. It is better now, but my previous Sony LCD TV had absolutely zero problems over a ten year period. A lower tier TV gave me a lot less problems. However, the S95B picture is arguably the best in its class. But my next TV will not be a Samsung.
Whatever TV processes video the best is what I lean to.
I'm looking into getting the mid level 85" TCL tv
which is better for 4k 120hz gaming on a PC? the highsense U8 or the tcl Q7?
Hisense. I have the U8K and it goes up to 144hz when gaming…. Just calibrate it once you decide to get it
I had a early/1st gen Panasonic LCD TV. Thing was built like a tank and weighs hefty, but it gave me 12+ years! My next one a Sharp LED much lighter and checked out after 6 years - how long do these TCL/Hisense TVs can last fairly heavy 24/7 usage u think?
First of all, who does 24//7 watching ???? Lol that means eye strain.
I had sharp LED Aquos panel before. Now i have 2 Hisense post sharp . D general idea of Hisense LED (premium, google panel) should be over all in good shape.mine are like 2yr n 3 yr both going strong. Got them during pandemic, 24/7 watching by d way. Lol i am always home, he works at home so like TVs always on lol. 😊
Oh my place is multi-generational so the TV is almost always on the entire day haha@@birdtj82
Hey,,,,thx for answering. Yeah same here there ppl home always daily most of time. Since my dude works at home . N when we out, we have TV on some drome video (forest/ocean, or jazz just random cozy video) with lights on nice music on to keep my 2 YORKIES happy so they won’t get lonely. (Dogs like music n tv , they pass OUT on Jazz Cafe music, Hisense DOES AMAZZING SOUND, Butter fluid, loud but BUTTERY yet crisp i cant explain. I heard TCL ROKU, so i learnt those ROKU TVs are generic very marry snappy sound. D high end Hisense does amazing Piano soounds. LOUD but good depth, punchy n fluid)
So yeah like my tv is mostly always on lol when ppl are home or not home.
No issue.
Just need to have “screen saver” on so they are like computer monitor screen savers. I have it set to like 1 or 2 min i forgot. Some ppl like to pause tv go to washroom /shower etc, thoes screen savers can save yr tv. Also it has like “auto turn off after 3 hrs” option on also. That’s why some ppl buy their tv, they treat it like “oh it’s low budget” they run the TV to d ground n blame TV for it. Screen saver has to be on. Screen saver not on, so like NO1 killer for LED tv. Cuz they are made by light bumps. U dont want to have some crazy sill image. I ruined my last $4000 tv lol i would pause tv for 2 hrs. I was so upset, i knew about it but didnt pay too much attention .
I own both brands and have been very reliable.
I’ve had the 85 QM8 for a few days now and so far, after some initial issues, the tv has settled nicely. The PQ is as good as any OLED I’ve owned and I think the upscaling and clarity is much better than the S95c. Only real issues I’m having is Dolby Vision looks “terrible” like it’s in drab filmmaker mode or something and the tv has extremely limited Picture Controls. All at an amazing price.
Bad DV using a Apple 4K TV?
@@chebrubin Just plain bad dv. doesn’t matter if it’s ATV, Shield or internal apps.
@MichelleAlexandria-EM thank you very much for this information. I watch a lot of Dolby Vision content and it looks fantastic on my older Sony X950G. I was considering the QM8 but you've helped me eliminate it from consideration. May have to upgrade to the Sony X93L or X95L. Cheers!
I agree, I have this same tv and I can confirm Dolby vision is terrible. I managed to turn that feature off and only use HDR10 on my Amazon fire cube, Xbox and PlayStation when it comes to hdr gaming. I don’t use Dolby vision at all
@@heartlessmadness8812this literally broke my heart. I was dead set on 75 qm8. I have a huge 4K blue ray collection all in DV watching on Panasonic ub820. Is u8k DV better?
I saw the TCL QM8 in Best Buy and it impressed me for the price.
Long term use and reliability is the question
U still have negative thoughts abt things made by Chinese companies y.change your ideology
I've had a Hisense U7H for almost 2 years... 55inch for 500$... Love it. Take care.
I just picked up the Q7 (55) for my kid's room for gaming. I'm totally impressed, and I'm now wanting to replace our living room TV with the same in 75".
I just got the tcl Q6 qled 75 inch , for 750 dollars I love it great picture I'm very happy with it
