We've read some comments that the 75" model of the U7G, which isn't available yet, will have an IPS panel. Once the TV is released and we can get official confirmation, we will update the written review!
3:38 apples to apples, the 65" U8G has 360 dimming zones, which is a big difference. Comparing same size TVs would give a better review because companies put variances in different sizes.
but if you buying the sound bar would not it make more sense to get the U7G and save money for the sound bar... i was thinking of doing that buy the U7G and after 6 or 7 months get the home theater
I bought the U8G 65" and it is awesome! Super bright for during the day and the blacks are great at night, whether Im gaming or streaming this TV kicks ass. Highly recomend it over all the TVs 2-3X the price.
@@Frkndead1970 Thanks my man. I just got it delivered today, giving it time to warm up & acclimate before I set it up. Got it for $1k with Best Buy price match. I’m coming from a 2016 Samsung 6 series, so I’m kind of expecting to be blown away.
@@ArigmaTrickster pretty good, still figuring things out. Had to turn the backlight down to 50% for SDR content; the TV is crazy bright & I was getting eye strain from it. SDR/HD content looks good color wise - reds really pop - but the quality of the panel also makes it more evident that you’re not watching 4K content. I’m talking watching a broadcast game in 1080i or 720p over an antenna, etc. 4K content looks awesome, just not enough of it yet. The other thing is figuring out the right settings for motion. I applied the TCON update & manually set the motion sliders. You still see some artifacts if someone gestures hands really quickly or when there is text scrolling on a ticker, need to see if I can eliminate that (or just have to live with it). On the gaming side, I had to wait on a longer HDMI 2.1 cable to hook up my Xbox Series X. Got it tweaked so it gets all green check marks on the display test. Still need to figure out some of the HDR stuff though. For instance a game like NBA2K22 switches the TV to HDR mode when you launch it, but the colors look all washed out, etc. Whereas the colors on the dashboard are vibrant & awesome when it’s not using HDR. I need to figure that aspect out…obviously I don’t want a game to look worse by using advanced features of the TV.
I don't know, both are very similar. In Canada the U7G 75'' is priced similarly to the U8G 65'', so I consider both of them good options. Since we don't have a 75'' U8G anyway, it makes sense to me.
In Canada it is a big step up. You show $150 difference...here it is a $400 difference...from 899 to 1299! That changes the decision process when it is a 50% difference!
@@robesterd8132 Yeah, it's annoying - especially when you realize the markup is nowhere near what the cost of conversion from USD to CAD really is (about 20%) - they're often charging about 35% exchange rate! Samsung is also terrible with this!
Really wish you guys would compare apples to apples and also different sizes of the same model. Every review I've seen of yours says something like, for instance - we reviewed the 55", but the 65" performance should be similar. How can that be when in this case the 65" U8G has 360 dimming zones that each cover half as much real estate as the 55" (twice the density)? Only way it could be worse, is if the processor can't keep up - and that would be nice info to know.
Hey! We appreciate your feedback and definitely understand what you're saying. We did want to clarify this a little bit more though if you'll indulge us :) So despite the extra backlight zones, we still expect it to perform the same. This is because processing is typically more important than the actual number of zones. TVs usually use the same processor for their bigger sizes of the same models and it's almost always the bottleneck.
@@RTINGSdotcom I here ya, but - If the processor is really a "bottleneck", why would a manufacturer bother putting in more zones if the processor really can't handle it and if it didn't provide better performance as a result of doubling the zone density? Only real way to know is to test a 55" and 65" apples to apples, side by side. Haven't seen anyone do it yet with these.
Great review, gonna go pick up a U7G today just feel like it’s not worth the extra hundred bucks to have those small features plus I never really have reflections in my gaming area. Hopefully this is the best choice for my series X🤞🏻
@@ameerhenderson4447 i just moved into a new place and I dont have wifi yet so I only used my phone data to set it up and sadly haven’t gamed yet, but after playing with the picture settings a bit I have to say this is one of the best looking tvs ive ever seen, but Im looking forward to trying 4k 120hz gaming soon👌🏽
based on your assessment, I am a gamer with a new Xbox series x, I purchased the 65U7G - it is getting delivered today - Like a kid on christmas - thanks
The current availability and price of the U7G/U7H and U8G/U8H led me to get the 65" U7H (U75H @ Costco) for $770. I couldn't justify the extra $180 (65" U8G is currently $950 @ Amazon) for a couple of factors that won't be that noticeable or impressive to me. Coming from a TCL 5-series I'm sure I'll be blown away.
I would get neither, I'd get the U6HF because it comes in 58" instead of the standard 55", 65" sizes. (I think 65" is too big and 55" is too small so ideally I'd want 60" but 58" is close enough)
65 inch version should of been tested for the U8. Plus even though it's obvious you failed to point out the U7 doesn't support forum VRR via hdmi and it doesn't support G-Sync like the U8 does. Important stuff.
Depends on the variant. I'm my region (Saudi Arabia) there is the u7wf with 60hz and only hdmi 2.0 and there is the u7gq with 120hz and hdmi 2.1 ports that support VRR. The u7gq costs more as well. I am not even sure if the u7gq has the same specs as the u7g that is sold in the US and shown in the video as I couldn't find the detailed specs of the u7gq and the stand is different but I am willing to buy it as the pricing is right and the marketed specs are in line with the US variant u7g. Totally different TV's with almost the same name, extremely confusing. Edit: I have bought the u7gq and returned it, it doesn't support 4k120 and only supports 120hz in 1080i (interlaced) mode even though the product page on Hisense Middle East website mentions HDMI 2.1 and a 120hz panel. Very misleading marketing.
That type of Video refresh isn't important to folks needing a decent gaming TV and at $200US cheaper and 10" bigger, it's an easy guess at to what's the better bang for your buck! I'm almost sold to that 65" U7G. I have a TCL 55R625 right now, so I'm just wanting the 120hz and smoother framerate anyway. The brightness is the exact same as what I'm using now, and can't really imagine it needing to be any more brighter where my A/V center is setup at. ✌️🍻
U7G is almost 500 dollars cheaper than U8G here in México 🤷🏻 so is a no brainer, tax and prices are different across the countries. What I feel relieved for, is that we get same electronics models sold in USA 🇺🇸 almost 97% of the time, and cheaper than other LATAM countries too.
I just bought U7g 55", I was going to buy the Sony 55X90J by the end of year but today was a sale for this Hisense so I decided to take chances. I hope I have made a good decision.
UA-cam didn't post my replies, let's see if now it publishes. TV image quality is good in light images but poor on dark scenes. Android TV is superb. I don't feel 100 % satisfied with the image it delivers, I have a ps5 and hdmi 2.1 cable and I don't get 120hz, I thought Miles Morales was at 120 but maybe I am wrong. At the end, I don't understand the great score this tv it has, I followed the hype. I don't recommend it. I. Should bought Sony x90j or LG C1.
@@Ch4rlie111 Spiderman is not a game supported for 120 hz call of duty vanguard rocket league and rainbow 6 are supported though ps5 don't have too much games that support 120 hz xobx has a lot of games that do i feel that ps5 has a lot of missing features that Xbox have ik later on they will add these things but I'm a little disappointed
I see many comments about the U8G...for me, if I'm gonna spend $999 on the U8G because of VRR and extra dimming zones (which is expected in a more expensive model), I may as well get the LG Nano 90. Otherwise, the U7G is what it is, a budget 120hz set. Of course it's not gonna have the same features.
Btw thanks for the video man my u6g just broke and I'm being refunded and wondering which one I should get between the 7g or 8g. Biggest issue is wondering if it'll fit my wall mount (now as I'm watching your video I realize it does fit! Thanks so much man!)
Unfortunately in Poland (and Europe in general) Hisense U8G is crappy and differs a lot from American version. It's also more expensive for some reason.
Is everyone really behind buying a higher-budget Hisense over other brands? Even with the large amount of problems seen with their budget R6G/R6G3 models? I get that they offer good displays, but will they last?!
Are those specs right about the dimming zones for the u8g because how does it go almost tripled the zones for just 1/4 more screen, 55in 132zn to 65in 360zn
PS5 cant dispaly 4k@120Hz on the U7G. i have enhanced format, freesync enabled. I used the recommended setting per most forum but the PS5 is stuck at 4k@60Hz. I tried the XSX on the U75G and it has no issues with 4k@120Hz in the home screen. I can't figure out why the ps5 is having issues. any thoughts?
For someone shopping for either the U8G or U7G, what discernible differences will I see, if any, between the two? I’m more of a novice to these QLEDS. I typically watch sports, some streaming sites like Netflix, Prime, HBO, and some cable.
The U8G is at least slightly better in pretty much every way. It has better reflection handling and higher peak brightness, so it can more easily overcome glare in a bright room. The U8G also has a better local dimming feature, better black uniformity, and the unit we bought is more accurate out of the box. Finally, the U8G has a faster response time and a slightly wider color gamut. So, colors should 'pop' more and look better out of the box. Sports should also look smoother, and if you have lots of light in your room, the TV will handle that better. Plus, if you're in a dark room, the local dimming feature and better black uniformity should leave to a nicer picture!
@@RTINGSdotcom It’s use will be in a darker bedroom now that I put a blackout shade up for the summer. I’m tempted to go with the U7G if there’s a better sale, but I ordered the U8G already. Waiting for it to arrive.
Just got this TV because of all the reviews online. I don’t get it, this TV is terrible, it stutters every time there’s a fast scene. Am I doing anything wrong? I was watching Avengers Infinity War and every time there’s a fight scene it like looses frames.
We bought an H8F a couple of years ago (literally at Best Buy as people were first starting to lock down). Looks great most of the time, but we've had serious issues: 1. local dimming was horrible... major blooming. Turned it off but... 2. when a scene is dark, the whole screen dims to the point you can hardly see anything.... also... 3. Android TV is very laggy... sometimes I'll choose something only to wait 20 seconds... 30 seconds ... longer for the TV to acknowledge I've selected anything. Other times, it never processes the action. 4. Oftentimes, the TV seems to need to "warm up" its internet connection. We'll start watching something, which will drop frames, freeze, stutter... like it's buffering... but eventually content will play smoothly. (We went into the dev settings and turned off animations, which helped some with issue #3, but didn't make it smooth by any means.) Are these issues present in newer Hisense TVs? Did we get a lemon? We're looking to replace the H8F with a ~$1000 TV: TCL 6-series, Samsung Q70, Sony X85J, Hisense U8G, other? The Hisense does really well in reviews, but we don't want to be burned again.
I gotta tell you I bought the sony 65in X90J for $1099 & you just can't do better for the money period. Hisense U8G is only $100 less & you get way better quality from the sony & I'm not just saying that. Hisense realibility & quality over all sucks. 6 friends & 2 family members have owned them & I know lots about budget Tv's & what they do to cut cost. Buy the sony X90J & skip the others for $1099 nobody else is giving what the X90J offers for the money & quality on top of it. Sure ever set has lemons but hisense is now up there in price with sony & your not getting the same quality product with Hisense period.

I am happy with ug7 that I got for 700$ bucks off Amazon on cyber Monday but I hate that it’s going to 120 when I switch input n then goes away until I restart EVERYTHING TO GET BACK
So sad U7G will not be available in my home country (Serbia). Hisense representative told me ""U7 will not be sold, instead old U7QF will keep that niche"
Hi, I have a Xbox series s and use a 2.1 Hdmi cable on my Hisense U7G tv. The tv supports 120 fps at 4k so I should be able to play 1440p/120pfs however in my Xbox display settings if I select 120fps it defaults to 1080p and 1440p/60fps. My Hisense settings menu doesn’t offer me the option to enable hdmi advance settings. Anyone have an suggestions?
Can you help out I bought a Sony tv 65” X85 J live tv however the quality hasn’t been so good. Has anyone bought a Hisense tv ( do you think it works well)? Or could someone recommend another tv that may be better?
saddly these are only available in the US/Canada. its a complete downgrade pretty much everywhere else. even with the same model numbers like those in Australia but completely different TVs with severely lower specs and features....what a joke
I know right, I have an older Hisense 65r5 (Australia) and for the price I paid several years ago it still holds up amazingly, to the point I often recommend this brand to my friends as a budget option. But to release the exact same model names here (U7G & U8G) with downgraded hardware such as removing HDMI 2.1 (Which means no 4k120 input at all!) is just atrocious. If they used a different model name I would be more okay with it, but in keeping it identical just feels misleading. At a higher price too! USA 65" U8G seems to be around $1200USD ($1630AUD) while here in Australia the downgraded version goes for $1700USD ($2300AUD)
It might be better, but the u8g still struggles with dark scenes. At least my 85 inch one definitely does. Paid less than $1400usd for it however, so no complaints!
Are you going to review A7GQ lineup? I don’t know if its shipped in US but here in Europe has become an interesting low cost entry (50” Qdot + hdmi 2.1 in 60hz for 300€)
Unfortunately this lineup doesn’t appear to be available for purchase in the US so we won’t be able to buy and review it at this time. Sorry about that!
I got the u78g for my garage purely for gaming over the samsung q70a do you think I made the right choice or no? The u78g was 1000 while the q70a was like 1400
I was in the same position as you and specs wise the U7G sounds better than the Q70A but picture quality is almost the same, at the end I went with the Samsung for name brand sake honestly, still don't trust Hisense's reliability but if you're ok with that the Hisense offers pretty much the same performance for less money.
@@yordan826 ive never had a hisense so idk how they are i figured for the garage should be fine didnt wanna spend a bunch of money for something thats just gonna get full of smoke and stuff. Still hope its good for gaming tho 😂 should be here in 2days

Hello. I bought the u7g and love it. I upgraded the speed to 1gbps by using the insignia Ethernet to USB 3 cable and it's blazing fast now. I upgraded my internet to 2.5 but the insignia cable caps at 1gbps and they dont make an upgrade. I bought two off Amazon thing it would just be plug and play like the insignia but didn't work. What makes the insignia just work? Have you experimented with this?
@@Stephen-gn3bo because the native port has a bandwidth cap of only like 100mbps. With the Ethernet to USB 3 I can bypass it and get speeds up to 800mbps. I use Nvidia GeForce now app to stream games and it works flawlessly without the cap.
Without being there to see the issue first hand it's hard to say what's happening. If you're experiencing technical issues though, it's best to contact the manufacturer for technical support. Sorry about that!
I will be so greatful if you can help me with my hisense U6GS model I have my tv replaced for the 4th time and same issue occurs. I don't k ow if it's called white spot.

I am digging the U7G. I did a little calibrating. Start with the Theater night picture mode and work from there.
We don't do any long-term durability testing ourselves because we keep the TVs to retest them in case of firmware updates. Based on user reports though, we get more bug and issue reports from budget brands like Hisense and TCL.
The U8G has faster response time, so motion should look smother than on the U7G. However, it might help to check out our in-depth comparison (mainly the sports section). www.rtings.com/tv/tools/compare/hisense-u7g-vs-hisense-u8g/23636/24875?usage=1&threshold=0.10
Heard it has a microphone that wont turn off ? also motion blur issues ? and because it is android based it has a fair amount if annoying pop ups ? can you comment on all of the above please. I was strongly strongly considering getting the U8G until I heard about these possiable issues which gave me pause.
Hey there, It might help to checkout our full review where we discuss any potential motion issues (response time section of the review) and whether or not the TV is ad free. In this case, though, like almost all TVs on the market now, there are ads throughout the interface. As for the Mic, according to some users, you can disable it in the settings: www.reddit.com/r/Hisense/comments/swlstj/turn_off_assistant_entirely_on_u8g/
We'd recommend the U8G as it has the best overall performance when considering things like Black Uniformity, Local Dimming, and Contrast (three very important factors for dark room performance)!
Can someone explain something to me? I'm a little confused by the names of these TVs. On the hisense website there's a TV advertised as the U78G. Which is that the U7G or the U8G?
Hey Guillermo, Since we haven't tested the TCL Q747, we really can't say how it compares to the Hisense TVs in this video. Without having our own data, we wouldn't want to speculate and risk giving your incorrect information. Sorry about that!
Aren't you giving the u8g an advantage right out the gate with a higher ppi or pixel per inch it being a 55". I'm looking at buying either 55" inch model.
We try to test the size that is most commonly purchased. While the trend is still moving larger, generally 55" TVs are the most popular sizes. Dimming zones alone though don't tell the full story. The software matters a lot too. However, with more dimming zones we would hope to see improved local dimming. As for the contrast, it's a little more complicated. Indirectly, yes, it can improve contrast. If a TV doesn't have enough zones to dim around dark objects, then in mixed scenes, the zones simply won't turn off. If a different size TV has more zones, it might be better capable of dimming the backlight behind dim objects, thereby improving contrast.
We give the edge to the U8G! The local dimming feature that the U8G supports is the biggest difference maker here. It also gets much brighter when watching HDR movies.
I bought the 55U7G for 470 euro because of the VRR , 120Hz and brightness for true HDR. The local dimming zones are in my opinion a nice bonus but still a gimmick, There must be around 1000 zones to compete with Oled, or otherwise you will always have a grayish black levels or a little blooming.
How have you been liking the u7g now that you've had it for couple months? Was going to get it for my gaming tv. It's also on sale now. Debating about pulling the trigger and getting it
@@Gnarly_Budz420 get the u8 I'm it has better blacks and more color for me at best buy it was like 50$ more i missed out and got the u7 but the u7 is still a good tv either one it supports alot of stuff if the u8 is not on sale just get the u7
Ok I'm just gonna put this out there. I've had 6 friends & 2 family members who's all previously purchased hisense TV'S & none of them ever went passed 5yrs. They have quality issues & skimp big time on internal components & assembly is trash but you as a consumer can't see that part. You get trash quality for $1000 & that's not a joke either I'm being Honist. $1099 gets you a 65in sony X90J with way better dependability Over all & quality & you can't say otherwise either. You get the next Gen 3.0 Tv Tuner built in for future over the air 4K broadcast & that alone is at leased a $200 add on nobody else is giving you at that price point. VRR Has been updated now. Hisense is a budget TV company that's prices are now rivaling the big 3 & their quality & dependability is so far off its not funny. I hope this truly makes people think about what their getting for their money. THE U8G for $1000 is not a good buy & your getting screwed at that price. But hey it gets really bright they say. So does the sun but if your not careful it will burn your ass just like hisense.
@@lorindamikaela you seem to get better Hisense than we do. We don’t have the U8G in 85” here. You’ve also had the dual cell tv a couple years already, if I’m not mistaken.
Unfortunately, we can't see any information about this on the label of our unit, so we can't say for sure. If you want to know for sure, you may want to check out your user manual or reach out to Hisense directly!
I love your work and use your site regularly. However I do not understand how you can give the u7g such a high rating when it has such a major flaw. The red ghosting is terrible, with vrr it is even worse. I went through 3 units in Canada and they all displayed it very prominently. A quick search of various forums shows this is a fairly common issue, and even in your review you mention it. I just simply do not understand how it could get even a fair rating with such a issue.
This isn't just Hisense... It's a common problem with all new TVs supporting HDMI 2.1 VRR. A few brands have released firmware updates to fix the issue. I'm sure Hisense will, too, at some point.
The Hisense U6G could be a good option for you depending on the size you're after! Here's an article with some more options under $1000: www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/best/by-price/under-1000
I was torn between Vizio 65INCH OLED and X90J. In the end the U8 just checked all the boxes features wise for movies and games and going from a 2018 TCL 6-Series it'll be a huge upgrade regardless. And I'll have money for an Atmos soundbar.
I recently replaced my 2019 TCL Series 6 with the U8G and so far I'm very happy with it. The Android OS is a bit wonky in places but I can live with that.
We've read some comments that the 75" model of the U7G, which isn't available yet, will have an IPS panel. Once the TV is released and we can get official confirmation, we will update the written review!

@@ArigmaTrickster pretty good, still figuring things out. Had to turn the backlight down to 50% for SDR content; the TV is crazy bright & I was getting eye strain from it.
SDR/HD content looks good color wise - reds really pop - but the quality of the panel also makes it more evident that you’re not watching 4K content. I’m talking watching a broadcast game in 1080i or 720p over an antenna, etc. 4K content looks awesome, just not enough of it yet.
The other thing is figuring out the right settings for motion. I applied the TCON update & manually set the motion sliders. You still see some artifacts if someone gestures hands really quickly or when there is text scrolling on a ticker, need to see if I can eliminate that (or just have to live with it).

Good job on showing Canadian model number
Why does there have to be such a high price mark-up for the Canadian models? 😫
I don't know, both are very similar. In Canada the U7G 75'' is priced similarly to the U8G 65'', so I consider both of them good options.
Since we don't have a 75'' U8G anyway, it makes sense to me.
A year late, but the 75 inch u7g has an IPS panel instead of VA
In Canada it is a big step up. You show $150 difference...here it is a $400 difference...from 899 to 1299! That changes the decision process when it is a 50% difference!
Ya it's ridiculous how expensive it is in Canada

How can that be when in this case the 65" U8G has 360 dimming zones that each cover half as much real estate as the 55" (twice the density)? Only way it could be worse, is if the processor can't keep up - and that would be nice info to know.
Hey! We appreciate your feedback and definitely understand what you're saying. We did want to clarify this a little bit more though if you'll indulge us :)
So despite the extra backlight zones, we still expect it to perform the same. This is because processing is typically more important than the actual number of zones. TVs usually use the same processor for their bigger sizes of the same models and it's almost always the bottleneck.
@@RTINGSdotcom I here ya, but - If the processor is really a "bottleneck", why would a manufacturer bother putting in more zones if the processor really can't handle it and if it didn't provide better performance as a result of doubling the zone density? Only real way to know is to test a 55" and 65" apples to apples, side by side. Haven't seen anyone do it yet with these.
Great review, gonna go pick up a U7G today just feel like it’s not worth the extra hundred bucks to have those small features plus I never really have reflections in my gaming area. Hopefully this is the best choice for my series X🤞🏻
Contemplating getting the u7g. How has it faired for you?
Have you enjoyed the TV thus far?
I ordered the 65 inch U7G for my series X as well, will pick it up from Best Buy on Friday Im pretty hyped not gonna lie😂
@@jeremiahcarranza9351 how is it? I just ordered the same tv for my ps5 it’ll be here Wednesday
@@ameerhenderson4447 i just moved into a new place and I dont have wifi yet so I only used my phone data to set it up and sadly haven’t gamed yet, but after playing with the picture settings a bit I have to say this is one of the best looking tvs ive ever seen, but Im looking forward to trying 4k 120hz gaming soon👌🏽
based on your assessment, I am a gamer with a new Xbox series x, I purchased the 65U7G - it is getting delivered today - Like a kid on christmas - thanks
Hope you enjoy! :)
If the U8G was in 75 I would get. Unfortunately, only the U7G has a 75 of the two.
Thanks for adding Canadian info, no one really does for us lol.
No problem! We try and find it out when we can :)
The current availability and price of the U7G/U7H and U8G/U8H led me to get the 65" U7H (U75H @ Costco) for $770. I couldn't justify the extra $180 (65" U8G is currently $950 @ Amazon) for a couple of factors that won't be that noticeable or impressive to me. Coming from a TCL 5-series I'm sure I'll be blown away.
Let us know what you think once you get it!
So how is it? Want to buy the exact same one)
I would get neither, I'd get the U6HF because it comes in 58" instead of the standard 55", 65" sizes. (I think 65" is too big and 55" is too small so ideally I'd want 60" but 58" is close enough)
Just picked up a U7g on the cheap for my PS5...can't wait
How much did toy pay if u don't mind me asking ?
65 inch version should of been tested for the U8. Plus even though it's obvious you failed to point out the U7 doesn't support forum VRR via hdmi and it doesn't support G-Sync like the U8 does. Important stuff.
Depends on the variant.
I'm my region (Saudi Arabia) there is the u7wf with 60hz and only hdmi 2.0 and there is the u7gq with 120hz and hdmi 2.1 ports that support VRR. The u7gq costs more as well. I am not even sure if the u7gq has the same specs as the u7g that is sold in the US and shown in the video as I couldn't find the detailed specs of the u7gq and the stand is different but I am willing to buy it as the pricing is right and the marketed specs are in line with the US variant u7g.
Totally different TV's with almost the same name, extremely confusing.
Edit: I have bought the u7gq and returned it, it doesn't support 4k120 and only supports 120hz in 1080i (interlaced) mode even though the product page on Hisense Middle East website mentions HDMI 2.1 and a 120hz panel. Very misleading marketing.
Not that both u7wf and u7gq are 2021 TV's
Edit: correction: the u7wf is the 2020 model, sorry for the confusion.
My u7g 65 supports vrr and freesync.
That type of Video refresh isn't important to folks needing a decent gaming TV and at $200US cheaper and 10" bigger, it's an easy guess at to what's the better bang for your buck! I'm almost sold to that 65" U7G. I have a TCL 55R625 right now, so I'm just wanting the 120hz and smoother framerate anyway. The brightness is the exact same as what I'm using now, and can't really imagine it needing to be any more brighter where my A/V center is setup at. ✌️🍻
@@smokestacklightning I have no idea what vrr is not thanks I'll research it.

How is it?
did you make the right choice?
UA-cam didn't post my replies, let's see if now it publishes. TV image quality is good in light images but poor on dark scenes. Android TV is superb. I don't feel 100 % satisfied with the image it delivers, I have a ps5 and hdmi 2.1 cable and I don't get 120hz, I thought Miles Morales was at 120 but maybe I am wrong.

Sir I love how you touch the topic of model no. Of different regions
I see many comments about the U8G...for me, if I'm gonna spend $999 on the U8G because of VRR and extra dimming zones (which is expected in a more expensive model), I may as well get the LG Nano 90. Otherwise, the U7G is what it is, a budget 120hz set. Of course it's not gonna have the same features.
The LG Nano 90 is a significantly worse tv according to RTINGS.
Any LG tv that’s not an OLED is dogshit, you’re playing yourself buying that over a U8G
Btw thanks for the video man my u6g just broke and I'm being refunded and wondering which one I should get between the 7g or 8g. Biggest issue is wondering if it'll fit my wall mount (now as I'm watching your video I realize it does fit! Thanks so much man!)
Unfortunately in Poland (and Europe in general) Hisense U8G is crappy and differs a lot from American version. It's also more expensive for some reason.
Same in uk sound is not good
Is everyone really behind buying a higher-budget Hisense over other brands? Even with the large amount of problems seen with their budget R6G/R6G3 models? I get that they offer good displays, but will they last?!
nice.. thought I might have to pay to see this review.. thanks
Trying to disside between a 75 inch u7g or a 65 inch u8g is the picture quality better than the extra 10 inch of screen for the $100 au more
Are those specs right about the dimming zones for the u8g because how does it go almost tripled the zones for just 1/4 more screen, 55in 132zn to 65in 360zn
PS5 cant dispaly 4k@120Hz on the U7G. i have enhanced format, freesync enabled. I used the recommended setting per most forum but the PS5 is stuck at 4k@60Hz. I tried the XSX on the U75G and it has no issues with 4k@120Hz in the home screen. I can't figure out why the ps5 is having issues. any thoughts?
Without any motion enhancement settings any object that moves has a lag to it. No reviewer has mentioned this…
For someone shopping for either the U8G or U7G, what discernible differences will I see, if any, between the two? I’m more of a novice to these QLEDS. I typically watch sports, some streaming sites like Netflix, Prime, HBO, and some cable.
The U8G is at least slightly better in pretty much every way. It has better reflection handling and higher peak brightness, so it can more easily overcome glare in a bright room. The U8G also has a better local dimming feature, better black uniformity, and the unit we bought is more accurate out of the box. Finally, the U8G has a faster response time and a slightly wider color gamut. So, colors should 'pop' more and look better out of the box. Sports should also look smoother, and if you have lots of light in your room, the TV will handle that better. Plus, if you're in a dark room, the local dimming feature and better black uniformity should leave to a nicer picture!
@@RTINGSdotcom It’s use will be in a darker bedroom now that I put a blackout shade up for the summer. I’m tempted to go with the U7G if there’s a better sale, but I ordered the U8G already. Waiting for it to arrive.
In November 2021 having a LG 42LA620S-ZA the U7G would be a good upgrade? Thanks a lot ✌️👌😉
Just got this TV because of all the reviews online. I don’t get it, this TV is terrible, it stutters every time there’s a fast scene. Am I doing anything wrong? I was watching Avengers Infinity War and every time there’s a fight scene it like looses frames.
This sounds great. They have a lot of features for the price.
We bought an H8F a couple of years ago (literally at Best Buy as people were first starting to lock down). Looks great most of the time, but we've had serious issues: 1. local dimming was horrible... major blooming. Turned it off but... 2. when a scene is dark, the whole screen dims to the point you can hardly see anything.... also... 3. Android TV is very laggy... sometimes I'll choose something only to wait 20 seconds... 30 seconds ... longer for the TV to acknowledge I've selected anything. Other times, it never processes the action. 4. Oftentimes, the TV seems to need to "warm up" its internet connection. We'll start watching something, which will drop frames, freeze, stutter... like it's buffering... but eventually content will play smoothly.
(We went into the dev settings and turned off animations, which helped some with issue #3, but didn't make it smooth by any means.)
Are these issues present in newer Hisense TVs? Did we get a lemon? We're looking to replace the H8F with a ~$1000 TV: TCL 6-series, Samsung Q70, Sony X85J, Hisense U8G, other? The Hisense does really well in reviews, but we don't want to be burned again.
I gotta tell you I bought the sony 65in X90J for $1099 & you just can't do better for the money period. Hisense U8G is only $100 less & you get way better quality from the sony & I'm not just saying that. Hisense realibility & quality over all sucks. 6 friends & 2 family members have owned them & I know lots about budget Tv's & what they do to cut cost. Buy the sony X90J & skip the others for $1099 nobody else is giving what the X90J offers for the money & quality on top of it. Sure ever set has lemons but hisense is now up there in price with sony & your not getting the same quality product with Hisense period.

Hi, I have a Xbox series s and use a 2.1 Hdmi cable on my Hisense U7G tv.

Can you help out I bought a Sony tv 65” X85 J live tv however the quality hasn’t been so good. Has anyone bought a Hisense tv ( do you think it works well)? Or could someone recommend another tv that may be better?
saddly these are only available in the US/Canada. its a complete downgrade pretty much everywhere else. even with the same model numbers like those in Australia but completely different TVs with severely lower specs and features....what a joke
I know right, I have an older Hisense 65r5 (Australia) and for the price I paid several years ago it still holds up amazingly, to the point I often recommend this brand to my friends as a budget option.
But to release the exact same model names here (U7G & U8G) with downgraded hardware such as removing HDMI 2.1 (Which means no 4k120 input at all!) is just atrocious.
If they used a different model name I would be more okay with it, but in keeping it identical just feels misleading. At a higher price too!
USA 65" U8G seems to be around $1200USD ($1630AUD) while here in Australia the downgraded version goes for $1700USD ($2300AUD)

What's the longevity of these Hisense TV? How does it compare with other brands in general?
We don't do any long-term durability testing ourselves because we keep the TVs to retest them in case of firmware updates. Based on user reports though, we get more bug and issue reports from budget brands like Hisense and TCL.
why you guys have uled version while asian version called QLED ?
How is motion on the U7G and U8G for a big sports fan? Bad motion is a deal breaker.

Hey there,
It might help to checkout our full review where we discuss any potential motion issues (response time section of the review) and whether or not the TV is ad free. In this case, though, like almost all TVs on the market now, there are ads throughout the interface.

Where does the H8g fit in? Its priced between the U6 and U7
which is better for a dark room and only to watch movies and series? (I don't have a console), u6, u7 or u8?
We'd recommend the U8G as it has the best overall performance when considering things like Black Uniformity, Local Dimming, and Contrast (three very important factors for dark room performance)!
Can someone explain something to me? I'm a little confused by the names of these TVs. On the hisense website there's a TV advertised as the U78G. Which is that the U7G or the U8G?
It's the same with the U7G
Does u8g still have ghosting problems with video games?
I just got a 2020 H8G used for $300. Which hisence model is it equivalent too, the U6G or U7G?

which one is better between the u7/u8 and the TCL Q747 (mod 2022) ??? I need to know to buy 🥺
Hey Guillermo,
Since we haven't tested the TCL Q747, we really can't say how it compares to the Hisense TVs in this video. Without having our own data, we wouldn't want to speculate and risk giving your incorrect information. Sorry about that!
Its too bad no 75" U8G.
The U9DG will take care of that
@Playstaion 6 Pro - Here in Australia you can buy a 85", I just ordered the 75" because I cannot fit an 85.
I'm pissed they don't make the U8G 95" with 1000 dimming zones. Pathetic!
Aren't you giving the u8g an advantage right out the gate with a higher ppi or pixel per inch it being a 55". I'm looking at buying either 55" inch model.
We expect our review for the U8G to be applicable to both sizes, so performance shouldn't change between the 55 and 65'' model!
Why wouldn't you test the 65" U8G with the 360 dimming zones. Wouldnt you expect better contrast?
We try to test the size that is most commonly purchased. While the trend is still moving larger, generally 55" TVs are the most popular sizes.
Dimming zones alone though don't tell the full story. The software matters a lot too. However, with more dimming zones we would hope to see improved local dimming.
As for the contrast, it's a little more complicated. Indirectly, yes, it can improve contrast. If a TV doesn't have enough zones to dim around dark objects, then in mixed scenes, the zones simply won't turn off. If a different size TV has more zones, it might be better capable of dimming the backlight behind dim objects, thereby improving contrast.

For watching movies which is better? Hisense U8G or Samsung Q70A?
We give the edge to the U8G! The local dimming feature that the U8G supports is the biggest difference maker here. It also gets much brighter when watching HDR movies.
the backlight bleed of these tv's is very bad , I had the U7G and had to return it because of the backlight bleed
Very informative!
does anyone know if its simmilar to the chinese version E8G?
hard decision but I went with the U7G for $750, the U8H here is $999 at best buy, the extra $250 doesn't seem worth it

I bought the 55U7G for 470 euro because of the VRR , 120Hz and brightness for true HDR. The local dimming zones are in my opinion a nice bonus but still a gimmick, There must be around 1000 zones to compete with Oled, or otherwise you will always have a grayish black levels or a little blooming.
Well I can tell you 360 zones are better than 90 My blacks are ink. about 89% of what Oled dishes to the screen.

Ok I'm just gonna put this out there. I've had 6 friends & 2 family members who's all previously purchased hisense TV'S & none of them ever went passed 5yrs. They have quality issues & skimp big time on internal components & assembly is trash but you as a consumer can't see that part. You get trash quality for $1000 & that's not a joke either I'm being Honist. $1099 gets you a 65in sony X90J with way better dependability Over all & quality & you can't say otherwise either. You get the next Gen 3.0 Tv Tuner built in for future over the air 4K broadcast & that alone is at leased a $200 add on nobody else is giving you at that price point. VRR Has been updated now. Hisense is a budget TV company that's prices are now rivaling the big 3 & their quality & dependability is so far off its not funny. I hope this truly makes people think about what their getting for their money. THE U8G for $1000 is not a good buy & your getting screwed at that price. But hey it gets really bright they say.

Australian version is a completely different TV. It just has the same naming scheme.
The 55" U7G went on sale on Amazon for $500 over the weekend. The choice was easy at that point. ;D
Let us know what you think once you get it! :)
Why was it an easy decision based on $100 alone, or were their other factors?
Can you confirm if this TV Is 110v only or 110-240v? I'll be moving soon so I need a Tv that works in 110v and 240v. Thx
Unfortunately, we can't see any information about this on the label of our unit, so we can't say for sure. If you want to know for sure, you may want to check out your user manual or reach out to Hisense directly!
@@RTINGSdotcom thank you 😊
In Middle East u8g, u7g, u6g, and A7g, have hdmi 2.1
He's literally saying U A G
Wait so the U7G doesn’t have g-sync but U8G yes?
Yes
I love your work and use your site regularly. However I do not understand how you can give the u7g such a high rating when it has such a major flaw. The red ghosting is terrible, with vrr it is even worse. I went through 3 units in Canada and they all displayed it very prominently.
A quick search of various forums shows this is a fairly common issue, and even in your review you mention it. I just simply do not understand how it could get even a fair rating with such a issue.
This isn't just Hisense... It's a common problem with all new TVs supporting HDMI 2.1 VRR. A few brands have released firmware updates to fix the issue. I'm sure Hisense will, too, at some point.
Fixed?
@@Sunny15511 any update?
This issue was fixed
Do you know the release date of the u7g pro ?
its already out in China, thats the only place ive really seen it
Anybody know if a u8g would fit the same wall mount my u6g was on?
We saw the follow up question, glad we could help!
Looks as if Hisense is using the same selling strategy for the U8g as it did for the H9g; availability .
Bro i have 700$ what should i buy ?
Thanks
The Hisense U6G could be a good option for you depending on the size you're after!
Here's an article with some more options under $1000: www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/best/by-price/under-1000
Please do 75 inch review, lots of bad reviews, different panel?
I was torn between Vizio 65INCH OLED and X90J. In the end the U8 just checked all the boxes features wise for movies and games and going from a 2018 TCL 6-Series it'll be a huge upgrade regardless. And I'll have money for an Atmos soundbar.
I just got my gen 2 Sonos sound bar today for my u7g. Definitely pleased with it.
I recently replaced my 2019 TCL Series 6 with the U8G and so far I'm very happy with it. The Android OS is a bit wonky in places but I can live with that.
