As an owner of the U7G 65inch (UK) tv for the last 8 months, I can tell you that it has been exceptional value for money. 👍I was like many rather sceptical, obvious I suspect for many of you; reasons why I might be. HOWEVER from the first time I turned it on it has been reliable, has great functionality, works well with my eARC devices, loving the ability to turn off the screen whilst listening to streamed music, shows, et Plenty of inputs and outputs that do what you want from them. Overall 10/10
I purchased a u7g 65 yesterday. It's on sale right now and was well worth the price. I have a Series X and I was gaming on a 4 series TCL that was just not cutting it at all. The native 120hrz was a huge selling point for me. I tested the TV out with Assassins Creed Valhalla and I am blown away so far.
@@fastcarfootball8710 So, it does support VRR with series X. I am wondering if it will for the PS5 as well that finally added that. I am coming from probably a worse TV than you had which was a Sharp Roku TV. It has such few customization options and the colors aren't even close to what you would think they should be. Would you say this is good for streaming in a darker room watching the usual Netflix, Hulu, Prime, etc? It's on sale (clearance) for $600 and I didn't think I could do much better, but how is it good just for your basic home living room TV. Is the sound really to the point that I need a sound bar? Thanks.
My main concern is the 55” model is reported to have moderate-severe ghosting and smearing. The 65” uses a different panel manufacturer and has a T-con, but the 55” is integrated according to Hisense. The 65” was able to get a firmware update to fix motion issues as well as a t-con update that eliminated ghosting and VRR issues. And U7G does in fact support VRR/Freesync with a range of 20hz (fps)- 120hz(fps) @ 1080p/1440p/4k.
The U7G has severe blooming not around text but when you watch a movie that has black bars the image tends to bloom on the black Bars It’s distracting I had to take mines back
@@NuttnButKungfu i have the 55 inch at most angles the screen show a good amount of blooming but when i get far enough and in the middle i only see it a little there is a little bit of ghosting i noticed it in a youtube a little but in games i dont notice it if knew before i would have gotten the 65 inch but im not to bummed out because this tv is only for gaming if it was for watching movies i would have returned it i have to say the 120 frames and the motion look good just turn on free sync so it eliminates tearing
I bought a Hisense H8C about five or six years ago, and it had one of the best pictures that I'd seen on a mid tier television. It performed flawlessly for the entire time I owned it, and other than lacking a few apps I would have preferred, it was an unbelievable purchase. It also came with the longest warranty I'd seen on any tv back then, like four or five years.
I have a 50 inch Hisense Smart TV I bought at Walmart on Black Friday about 5-6 years ago, which was one of their first 4K TVs. It has been a really great tv and has a great picture for being non-HDR. It too came standard with a 4 year warranty.
I agree, this is the best TV under 1k, everything looks excellent out of the box, gaming features work great including VRR, 4k/120hz and local dimming, the only thing I hate about the Hisense is the LED lights when you switch off the google assistant, those lights are bright.
I just bought the 65” u6g and decide to go with it over the u7g to save a little bit and as just a casual gamer I wouldn’t really be needing the benefits of hdmi 2.1 and I am very impressed. Coming from a 2018 vizio p series the picture quality blows it away. Using android tv over Vizios sluggish smart cast is a revelation.
REALLY? Pseries quantum is 120hz, U6g is 60hz... not to mention the P-Series has 200/240 dimming zones and Chromecast and Airplay. Not sure how you can say the U6G blows it away... but if all you're comparing is Smart Cast (which is sluggish) I guess that makes sense. The P-Series quantum is still a far superior tv in many ways.
@@Joeki11a like I said I’m a casual gamer i maybe play 2 or 3 single player experiences a year. I don’t play multiplayer or first person shooters where there isn’t a lot going on so at once so it’s not that important to me.
Hisense just keeps getting better these last 2 rounds of Tvs. I got one way back when 4k just started and I loved it switched back to LG for years then recently picked up the Hisense U8G and it blows every TV i've had out of the water. Definitely good for us people that don't have tons of cash to OLEDs but want a great picture.
Would like to see more reviews for midrange and even budget TVs. There is a huge number of people who can't/don't want to spend thousands to buy a high end TV. Also, it would be very interesting to see a video comparing a budget vs a midrange vs a high end TV
Think I’m going to go with this one for my PS5. Was looking for a new tv but didn’t want to break the bank. Seems like this one covers all the bases. Thanks!
I was telling a buddy of mine about the Hisense brand being one of the better budget TV’s. I would classify him as the average TV watcher with Sports being his primary viewing and Sports games being 2nd. When I was in the market to buy a TV the H8G was very high on my list, but it fell short ultimately. I still recommend it, but I went with the LG C1.
I have the same TV. I've noticed some local dimming problems, however what I didn't see coming was the lack of storage the TV has. I wasn't able to download the latest firmware unless I deleted some apps to create some space. I'm pretty sure the TV only supports 5gb and 1 gb is reserved for the android tv, ect. Also ours has become considerably slower over time. Restarting the TV helps but this shouldn't be an issue. Would have spent up to get more storage and a better processor looking back.
Thanks for touching briefly on what for me is a major issue when you mentioned the Hisence model number is completely different in Australia. I'm an American expat, living in Thailand. I'm laying groundwork for replacing my 55" with a 75" but mining useful information about new models is made difficult by the industries practice of totally different model numbers and features for units sold in Asia. Obviously, they have to be somewhat different to take into account various nations electrical requirements and broadcast bandwidths. However, no effort seems to be made to indicate any kind of similarity between various lines so like a TCL "6" series in the USA bears no resemblance to a TCL P615 series sold here in Asia. Though your videos are clearly aimed at the North American market, it is truly appreciated when you make the effort to clarify a particular model's status as to international markets.
Incredible review Caleb!! I was on the fence just because of the brand. I usually try and stick with LG, Samsung, or Sony but I think this tipped me over the edge to go for the Hisense. The price to performance really is incredible. My only concern is if it lasts. Guess I am going to find out.
I am a big Sony fan Daniel. Consumer reports rates Sony 5 out of 5 for reliability. WIth Hisense they rate it 4 out of 5 which is still very good. I think reliability is a huge aspect that rarely gets chatted about on these reviews. Caleb did talk about it here. I liked that. I keep my televisions for years so its import to me .
Hi Caleb. Hope all is well. Thx for a great review.👏👏 Here in NSW, Australia we suffer from Hisense offering different TVs with the same model number as the American model, which I'm pleased to say you clearly mentioned
Oops! Sorry about that, had tech problems.😨 Just wanted to add that I bought a 65" R8 in 2019 and have had no problems with it whatsoever. 🤞 Excellent picture, features and value for money👍however as the Aussie U8G is probably based on the European U8GQ ie APS panel, less dimming zones and lower peak brightness, ( curiously Hisense Australia refuses to release these basic specifications, ) hence I won't be buying Hisense the next time. 😠👎 Stay safe. 🍻 🇭🇲
i would love to have mentions on which are the e.g. EU Modelnames, if available - comes down mostly to Vizio, TCL, Hisense and stuff. But mainly these brands use different names for different regions - maybe just mention it in the description. Unfortunately a lot of the awesome budget TVs are not available in the EU or run with vastly different modelnumbers. Not quite fitting here, but i had that thought for a while now watchting these reviews & unboxings - love the concise and well balanced reviews
For the record, I use voice commands on my TVs rarely. Exceptions are to open Live Channels or the Play Store on Google TV, which aren't easily available to launch by icon.
I’m still using my Hisense 50H7GB1 that I bought refurbished in May of 2016. The input lag was noticeable enough I haven’t done much gaming on it (though my recent Switch purchase has been perfectly acceptable for Animal Crossing and Zelda so far). So hopefully if anything Hisense’s QC should be even better now. I was definitely considering the U7G and U8G 65”, and this review gives me some real hope that either one would work as a great upgrade without spending $1200+ on LG, Sony, or Samsung.
I got a Hisense 4k smart tv about 4 to 5 years ago and everything still works great. I fall asleep to tv a lot so it has been used a lot. The only thing that does not work very well is the smart features but it is older and is not a super smart tv or anything.
Was gonna comment about how the 75 inch uses an IPS panel but I see a lot of people thankfully know already. I bought and immediately returned the 75 inch because of terrible dark scene performance. If your gonna watch a lot of sports it may not be that bad though, but definitely not a good fit for movies and games. My thoughts and some pictures are on the Best Buy listing for the 75 inch in the review section. Hope my pictures help
I have a Hisense 50H6D that I bought back in 2017 and it still works great. The picture quality still holds up, but I wanted an upgrade for my PS5, so I purchased the Hisense U7G 55 inch model yesterday. Can't wait to see how my PS5 looks on it.
I returned my 55" u7g after 3 days of disappointment. Washed out image, grayish black (uncontrollable backlighting. Soft image. Not as bright as expected. My 2019 H8F blows this TV out of water. My H8F rivals oled but much brighter image and more detailed and accurate color.
@@abuelb Sad that it didn't work out for you. I configured my settings on my new U7G and the picture looks bright and amazing. Sorry it didn't work out for you. Glad you like your new TV though!
@@DWOMT the black on this 55 inch is grayish and backlighting cannot be lowered too much or the image dims. It cannot achieve a black level like my H8F where black background is like the tv is off black and no grayish blooming black like this u7g. H8f contrast ratio is much higher than this TV which shows cause my H8F is dialed like its 3d image. I'm all about image quality.
@@abuelb seems like your experience is the opposite of what this review's unit showed. Caleb's showed inky blacks. Maybe you had a dud panel. What did you get instead and was it any better?
@@EuropaWill I'm still using my H8F for pc gaming. 60hz is perfect. Oh another thing with 4k 120hz on this u7g or any hisesnse model even u8g, the image quality is downgraded to like 720p for a higher 120hz fps.
At the time i’ve been seeing the U8G 55” at $749 and the U7G 55” at $649 sometimes $599 for the past month or so . Definitely a great buy. I Got the U8G because my brother has H9G and it looked so amazing and the U8G is just astonishing
I watched this because I was interested in one - I narrowed my choices down to 3 Hisense TVs. But I'm Australia, so as soon as you said that... i stopped and made this comment. To a point that I'm not even interested in a Hisense anymore. Its frustrating when companies do this. There's no need to change model numbers between countries - its just done to confuse people and make comparisons harder.
I just wanna say thank you for all your informative reviews. I really enjoy them. I think i'm going with this television for my new home and Xbox Series X.
Lookin fit there Caleb! Great review as always. Everything with a chip is going up in price so maybe a combo of the chip shortage, increased dock fees, and because they can?
Caleb a controversial aspect about this TV model is that the 75" size uses an IPS panel vs a VA panel on the other sizes. I am hearing the performance of the 75 inch version as a result is quite different and disappointing.
Really!? I would’ve been so disappointed, because this was going to be the TV to purchase for me since they didn’t make the U8 in 75 inch. So thankful I got a killer deal on an 85 inch Vizio PQX.
One thing i don't get is why nobody mentions that the 75" is IPS, no reviewers nobody! That can mislead customers thinking the 75" is the same as the 55" or 65". Very deceiving! It seems like they don't want to anger Hisense...
@@jip254 these reviewed but small or mid size and by habit say it all is the same but if you Google Hisense u7g it takes 2 mins to see the ips vs va confusion. Fact the u8g doesn’t come in 85 compounds this problem. Otherwise u have to go down to a u6g or buy a TCL etc if you can’t wait
X95J review please! I'm replacing a x900e 65" that was cracked while on deployment and I'm hoping the X95J is up to the task. I loved the image on my old one.
I was a bit hesitant of the brand, but bought a 65U7G about three weeks ago and am very glad I did. Was planning on a Sony X90J but hated the fact it doesn't have variable width feet, and it was about 50% higher in price at the time of purchase. It's a BEAUTY!!! Highly recommended. The color is very good. Rtings has calibration settings for Theater Night mode which I have utilized, but out of the box setting looks basically the same. Blacks are outstanding as noted. You are right on watching The Night on Netflix (in Dolby Vision). Blooming is non existent! Motion is good and should be set in the "custom" setting. Judder 3, Blur reduction 5 or just go Standard setting which works well. Silver strip? There is none. It's gunmetal, looks really good and the build quality is terrific. Best bang for buck going IMHO.
Hi Caleb, thanks for an excellent review. You’re the reason I purchased a 65” U7G today. I had it on my wish list and kept watching the price. It dropped to $820.00 today so I pulled the trigger. Thanks for all your help. 👍🏻
I hate spying devices. i don't use voice commands for anything. for my tv the only use i give it is using the "screen off" command when i want to shut down the image but not the sound. but i don't leave it listening.
"pay a little for a professional calibration." @Digital Trends says this all the time but I don't think they realize what few markets offer that option.
Hi Caleb, can you explain how the U7G outperforms the U8G in terms of lack of blooming and deeper blacks with much fewer local dimming zones? I'm considering the 55" size only. Does it really have that much better real world contrast than the U8G at the expense of peak brightness?
People in the know on the u8g recommend the 65 not the 55 because of more dimming zones, if you are comparing 55 to 55 you're not comparing the best u8g and from what he said here the u7g is his preference in 65 for the better value to performance ratio, not that the u7g is better overall just better value at what these originally retailed for. I just picked up a refurb u8g 65 for $750 on amazon and that changes the entire value calculation.
I have a 55” U8G and a 50” u6g and I’m very pleased with both of them. I came from, believe it or not, a LG B6 oled. It was my first and only oled so far. But it does have some pretty serious image retention issues and has for the past couple years. Plus it’s just slow and sluggish compared to the newer TVs/processors. Can’t wait to see what Hisense does in the future
@@oilerguy5494 I’ll be honest with you, I do not know for sports. That tv is in my kids room and they play ps4 and other consoles on it. Those play great btw and the motion is very good while on game settings. We have watched some UA-cam and tubi content with it as well and I have no complaints.
@@oilerguy5494 the U8G is in the living room and it’s used for all things. Gaming and streaming content. Movies look great and motion is great. Hdr is awesome on the U8G due to the peak brightness. Colors are very good. I would say compared to the B6 oled I still prefer the oled because of the pure blacks. But the Hisense is a very very close second. The u6g is nowhere near as bright as the U8G so I’ve been able to personally witness the difference between what good hdr can look like and what it looks like on a lower specd panel. U6G is not that great for hdr content in my opinion. But I’ve been able to experience hdr with the other two TVs so I guess I’m spoiled lol
@@chadjones3572 I’m looking at both u6g and u7g but not sure I necessarily need the extra gaming features the u7g provides even tho I do game a bit. I watch lots of sports so motion on u6g does worry me a bit. It’s just a huge price jump from u6 to u7 and u6 provides such a good picture for the money.
Hisense has been doing this sense they came out. Affordability meets quality along with their decent warranties. They use to use samsung panels i wonder if they still do.
I adore talking to my TV, I find it incredibly practical, and since my Smart Home is connected to the Google assistant I even use my TV for smart home controls
Man I was so excited to get mine. FedEx delivered today. I helped him carry it up to my house. Unpacked it very carefully. Plugged it in. The whole screen looked like a shattered window. I'm so scared to get the replacement.
So far I have been enjoying my Hisense H8G 75 inch TV. Got it right at launch. Need a new bedroom/loft TV and will be looking at the 55inch version of this TV.
Yes, it's an IPS panel. I own one, I had to return my first one cuz the panel was so disgusting. Rolled the dice and got a better replacement, but I will say I have to play with the backlight settings and local dimming to keep black levels from being washed out, especially in the corners at night. Besides that, color, motion and obviously viewing angles I think are pretty darn good
It's a IPS panel. Absolutely horrible. Hisense definitely dropped the ball on this one . I called Hisense myself. Unbelievable. Not the worst but definitely not the same like a VA panel. I just don't understand why ?
for all the people that are saying Hisense is not a reliable brand I have 3 Hisense tvs Hisense K560 Series 46 inch still going strong as well as Hisense 50 inch Roku r6 and 65 inch Hisense H9F all are very good tv's with great black level...... even when comparing the 65 inch H9F to my Sony 49inch x950h it's very close after calibration the Sony nudges ahead by a little compared to the Hisense h9f, but the price comparison here in Canada I got the Hisense h9f in April 2020 for $799 plus taxes extended warranty was just over 1k here in Canada from factory direct as for the Sony being about 2x as much I would say the Hisense wins for that reason and for the fact even when they're side by side it's hard to declare a winner considering both TVs are so well made and performance. Hisense is the best value brand in existence for televisions! 💎🖖🇨🇦
Great review, thanks! This really helped highlight to me how good this TV's performance is with respect to color, black levels, contrast and other key PQ categories.
I had this TV (75”) for a year and a half before I noticed that it had a huge defect on the screen. There was a 6 inch wide rectangle of dark screen on the right side of the screen. I didn’t notice it because it’s not visible in 70% of the scenes in movies/tv shows you will watch. But when the colors are lighter and more solid you can see it. And when you notice it you can’t unnotice it. No setting got rid of it. The backlight in that area is defective. I was very unhappy when Hisense never responded to my emails or calls for support. You can’t even get a human on the phone. And there is no support option even if you want to pay for it. Lesson learned: Buy a TV from a higher end company that will actually give you support and always pixel check your TV with great detail during the return window!
I just pulled the trigger on 65 r635 for 699 on prime day same price as the u7g I was trying to find a good comparison of the two. Hoping I made the right choice
Be aware for gamers: I have this TV and run Xbox Series X > U7G > AVR dolby atmos through eARC and there are problems with audio at 4k120. The audio skips and goes mute, so be aware
@@Garetado if you don't use audio through eARC when gaming at 4k120, go for it. I enjoyed this TV for the month that I had it. I contacted Hisense about this issue, they identified it, said they emailed me a patch for it, but I never got it. Had to return TV since I only had a month to return it.
Yeah I bought one of these from best buy and immediately returned it. Horrible dark scene performance! I posted pictures on the Best Buy listing for the 75 in the reviews if your curious.
@@bde110790 I thank you for that review. Yours is the one that I read on Best Buy like “oh no no no no I’m not getting this”. I would have gotten home and been mad had I bought that lol
@@earthtrotterjones7835 a tcl r635. Started with a 65 then ordered a 75 when it went on sale this weekend. It gets delivered tomorrow. If the panel is clean I'm gonna keep it and return the 65inch.
I bought the 65U7GG about 4 months ago. The only thing that bothers me is that Ki do find there to be a little too much motion blur. But, other than that nothing bad in the least to say. So far I would almost be adept to say spectacular buy for the price
I'd like to know from you since you have the U7G, is it worth it over the U8G? I have been 50/50 on which one to get as I want it to use for the PS5 and watching 4K/Blu-ray movies. Save a little bit of money with the U7G?
@@JKO716 to be honest I will go with the R646 and here’s why, everything is great with the U7G but it has one big flaw the local dimming when I watch movies the black bars on the top and bottom tends to bloom it’s distracting and annoying it doesn’t stay black parts of it bloom it’s noticeable I have the 55inch version I heard the U8G has that same problem I’m returning mines back to Best Buy and get the TCL R646 I won’t get another Hisense until this problem is fix

This is a great review. Thank you Caleb !!!!! Seldom if ever is anything ever said about the longevity expectancy or reliability of a Television. I recently remember re reading the latest info in Consumer reports. I think they rate Hissense a 4 out of 5 for reliability. Pretty sure it used to be just a 3. I am someone that keeps a TV for years as evidenced by my 32 inch Sony Bravia. Its about ten years old and hasn't missed a beat. Not everyone can afford to upgrade every two or three years so I would like to encourage reviewers to at least touch on projected reliability over a few years. I am chuckling over the fact that Caleb nailed it!!!!!
I love using the Far Field Google Assistant to control my Phillips Hue Ecosystem and doing commands and treating it as a Large Google Assistant hub. My roommates love it also . I have the H9G
The 55" is on sale for $749 on Amazon and I'm tempted to get it. I like the LG NANO95 I have except for the backlighting situation so it might be something to consider upgrading to.
To fix the picture colour issue, just set the panel to native under expect settings in pictures mode settings and the colour becomes mesmerising. 10/10
Don't like Google - or anything listening in the background. Im old school and like my privacy. But that's me. I was considering the U8G but you may have convinced me otherwise. I'd like to seed a side by side comparison at my local Best Buy to finalize this decision. Thanks for a great informative video!!
Honestly, I'm not a fan of both the U6G and the U7G TVs. Maybe its because I'm looking for 75in TVs. Both had very poor black performance and Lots of blooming. The fewer local dimming zones were noticeable on the U6G vs the U7G but both weren't impressive. I think the 75in Versions of these tvs use IPS panels vs the 65 and smaller use VA panels. Ended up returning both to get a TCL 6 series with Roku. The TCL looks so much better in my dark condo. Only complaint is that the panel isn't as clean as the Hisense models and Roku is inferior to Adnroid\Google TV. There is significantly more dirty screen effect with the TCL vs the two Hisense TVs i returned. Stick with a 65in for Hisense TVs and save a buck.
Thanks for the review. I just bought the 75" version from Walmart in the USA. Right after buying I noticed some comments around the panel for this display. Commenters are saying the panel is an IPS whereas the 65" in the USA, which I believe is the one you reviewed, has a VA panel. The unit is in transit and I am wondering if I should return it. Is the panel really different and if so, how much will this panel affect the performance of the TV?

Better than the TCL 635?
So vrr is verified on this tv ? Does that mean freesync and gsync compatibility?
Has it good quality?
I just bought the 65” u6g and decide to go with it over the u7g to save a little bit and as just a casual gamer I wouldn’t really be needing the benefits of hdmi 2.1 and I am very impressed. Coming from a 2018 vizio p series the picture quality blows it away. Using android tv over Vizios sluggish smart cast is a revelation.
So you don’t want 120hz gaming wtf...
I just got the same tv. Love it.
REALLY? Pseries quantum is 120hz, U6g is 60hz... not to mention the P-Series has 200/240 dimming zones and Chromecast and Airplay.
Not sure how you can say the U6G blows it away... but if all you're comparing is Smart Cast (which is sluggish) I guess that makes sense.
The P-Series quantum is still a far superior tv in many ways.
@@Joeki11a like I said I’m a casual gamer i maybe play 2 or 3 single player experiences a year. I don’t play multiplayer or first person shooters where there isn’t a lot going on so at once so it’s not that important to me.
@@itsneight1260 I didn’t have the quantum I had the previous p series p55-f1 which didn’t get as bright and didn’t have quantum colors.
Hisense just keeps getting better these last 2 rounds of Tvs. I got one way back when 4k just started and I loved it switched back to LG for years then recently picked up the Hisense U8G and it blows every TV i've had out of the water. Definitely good for us people that don't have tons of cash to OLEDs but want a great picture.
Still blown away?! Thinking of getting the 65in this weekend
@@KeepingItFishy Yup! They are coming out with the new versions with mini LEDs soon as well if you didn't know if you wanted to wait alittle longer.
Would like to see more reviews for midrange and even budget TVs. There is a huge number of people who can't/don't want to spend thousands to buy a high end TV. Also, it would be very interesting to see a video comparing a budget vs a midrange vs a high end TV

Thanks for the review! Also a massive shoutout to the weight loss achievement you had since that last TCL 6 series review.
I have the H9G from 2 years ago and it's doing great. And it seems to me their TV's are just getting better.
I was telling a buddy of mine about the Hisense brand being one of the better budget TV’s.
I would classify him as the average TV watcher with Sports being his primary viewing and Sports games being 2nd. When I was in the market to buy a TV the H8G was very high on my list, but it fell short ultimately. I still recommend it, but I went with the LG C1.
I have the same TV. I've noticed some local dimming problems, however what I didn't see coming was the lack of storage the TV has. I wasn't able to download the latest firmware unless I deleted some apps to create some space. I'm pretty sure the TV only supports 5gb and 1 gb is reserved for the android tv, ect. Also ours has become considerably slower over time. Restarting the TV helps but this shouldn't be an issue. Would have spent up to get more storage and a better processor looking back.

So you still in the market or you pulled the trigger?
I was impressed with your reviews and am happy with the 65 u7g I bought off amazon today. thanks for making it an easy choice.
Thanks for touching briefly on what for me is a major issue when you mentioned the Hisence model number is completely different in Australia. I'm an American expat, living in Thailand. I'm laying groundwork for replacing my 55" with a 75" but mining useful information about new models is made difficult by the industries practice of totally different model numbers and features for units sold in Asia. Obviously, they have to be somewhat different to take into account various nations electrical requirements and broadcast bandwidths. However, no effort seems to be made to indicate any kind of similarity between various lines so like a TCL "6" series in the USA bears no resemblance to a TCL P615 series sold here in Asia.
Though your videos are clearly aimed at the North American market, it is truly appreciated when you make the effort to clarify a particular model's status as to international markets.
Great review!!! I think I maybe sold on this model. Let's go people, help this channel grow. Top 3 reviewer, hands down.
Incredible review Caleb!! I was on the fence just because of the brand. I usually try and stick with LG, Samsung, or Sony but I think this tipped me over the edge to go for the Hisense. The price to performance really is incredible. My only concern is if it lasts. Guess I am going to find out.
I am a big Sony fan Daniel. Consumer reports rates Sony 5 out of 5 for reliability. WIth Hisense they rate it 4 out of 5 which is still very good. I think reliability is a huge aspect that rarely gets chatted about on these reviews. Caleb did talk about it here. I liked that. I keep my televisions for years so its import to me .
Im actually proud to have a TV thats approved and liked by this channel. Big step up from my vizio v series🤣🤣🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️
Hi Caleb. Hope all is well. Thx for a great review.👏👏
Here in NSW, Australia we suffer from Hisense offering different TVs with the same model number as the American model, which I'm pleased to say you clearly mentioned
Oops! Sorry about that, had tech problems.😨
Just wanted to add that I bought a 65" R8 in 2019 and have had no problems with it whatsoever. 🤞 Excellent picture, features and value for money👍however as the Aussie U8G is probably based on the European U8GQ ie APS panel, less dimming zones and lower peak brightness, ( curiously Hisense Australia refuses to release these basic specifications, ) hence I won't be buying Hisense the next time. 😠👎
Stay safe. 🍻 🇭🇲
FYI to others researching, the 75-inch variant is reportedly an IPS panel. It has considerably lower quality than the 65-inch VA panel reviewed here.
Awesome review!! Helped me decide this is the TV for me!!
i would love to have mentions on which are the e.g. EU Modelnames, if available - comes down mostly to Vizio, TCL, Hisense and stuff. But mainly these brands use different names for different regions - maybe just mention it in the description. Unfortunately a lot of the awesome budget TVs are not available in the EU or run with vastly different modelnumbers.
Not quite fitting here, but i had that thought for a while now watchting these reviews & unboxings - love the concise and well balanced reviews
The issue is the TV could be completely different in those locations
Just bought the 65,I’m very impressed., with my Samsung sound bar 550 with sub
Can't wait until you get the U9 Dual Cell to review. I have heard it is Great.
For the record, I use voice commands on my TVs rarely. Exceptions are to open Live Channels or the Play Store on Google TV, which aren't easily available to launch by icon.
I’m still using my Hisense 50H7GB1 that I bought refurbished in May of 2016. The input lag was noticeable enough I haven’t done much gaming on it (though my recent Switch purchase has been perfectly acceptable for Animal Crossing and Zelda so far). So hopefully if anything Hisense’s QC should be even better now. I was definitely considering the U7G and U8G 65”, and this review gives me some real hope that either one would work as a great upgrade without spending $1200+ on LG, Sony, or Samsung.
I got a Hisense 4k smart tv about 4 to 5 years ago and everything still works great. I fall asleep to tv a lot so it has been used a lot. The only thing that does not work very well is the smart features but it is older and is not a super smart tv or anything.
Was gonna comment about how the 75 inch uses an IPS panel but I see a lot of people thankfully know already. I bought and immediately returned the 75 inch because of terrible dark scene performance. If your gonna watch a lot of sports it may not be that bad though, but definitely not a good fit for movies and games. My thoughts and some pictures are on the Best Buy listing for the 75 inch in the review section. Hope my pictures help
Thanks, getting this tv now for only $550 (55in) it seems everyone is reviewing it really good especially for gaming.
I hope you soon do a review of the Sony X95J. LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT ONE
Awesome 👏🏻 I’ve just purchased this TV 📺 and waiting for it to arrive 👌🏻
I have a Hisense 50H6D that I bought back in 2017 and it still works great. The picture quality still holds up, but I wanted an upgrade for my PS5, so I purchased the Hisense U7G 55 inch model yesterday. Can't wait to see how my PS5 looks on it.
I returned my 55" u7g after 3 days of disappointment. Washed out image, grayish black (uncontrollable backlighting. Soft image. Not as bright as expected. My 2019 H8F blows this TV out of water. My H8F rivals oled but much brighter image and more detailed and accurate color.
@@abuelb Sad that it didn't work out for you. I configured my settings on my new U7G and the picture looks bright and amazing. Sorry it didn't work out for you. Glad you like your new TV though!
@@DWOMT the black on this 55 inch is grayish and backlighting cannot be lowered too much or the image dims. It cannot achieve a black level like my H8F where black background is like the tv is off black and no grayish blooming black like this u7g. H8f contrast ratio is much higher than this TV which shows cause my H8F is dialed like its 3d image. I'm all about image quality.
@@abuelb seems like your experience is the opposite of what this review's unit showed. Caleb's showed inky blacks. Maybe you had a dud panel. What did you get instead and was it any better?
@@EuropaWill I'm still using my H8F for pc gaming. 60hz is perfect. Oh another thing with 4k 120hz on this u7g or any hisesnse model even u8g, the image quality is downgraded to like 720p for a higher 120hz fps.
At the time i’ve been seeing the U8G 55” at $749 and the U7G 55” at $649 sometimes $599 for the past month or so . Definitely a great buy. I Got the U8G because my brother has H9G and it looked so amazing and the U8G is just astonishing
I watched this because I was interested in one - I narrowed my choices down to 3 Hisense TVs. But I'm Australia, so as soon as you said that... i stopped and made this comment. To a point that I'm not even interested in a Hisense anymore. Its frustrating when companies do this. There's no need to change model numbers between countries - its just done to confuse people and make comparisons harder.
I just wanna say thank you for all your informative reviews. I really enjoy them. I think i'm going with this television for my new home and Xbox Series X.
Hisense is very durable my Hisense bought 2015 its still working. Its cheap but durable.

Just bought the 55 u7g for $749 at Best Buy.
Absolutely stunning set.
Lookin fit there Caleb! Great review as always. Everything with a chip is going up in price so maybe a combo of the chip shortage, increased dock fees, and because they can?
Caleb a controversial aspect about this TV model is that the 75" size uses an IPS panel vs a VA panel on the other sizes. I am hearing the performance of the 75 inch version as a result is quite different and disappointing.
Really!? I would’ve been so disappointed, because this was going to be the TV to purchase for me since they didn’t make the U8 in 75 inch. So thankful I got a killer deal on an 85 inch Vizio PQX.
One thing i don't get is why nobody mentions that the 75" is IPS, no reviewers nobody! That can mislead customers thinking the 75" is the same as the 55" or 65". Very deceiving! It seems like they don't want to anger Hisense...
@@jip254 these reviewed but small or mid size and by habit say it all is the same but if you Google Hisense u7g it takes 2 mins to see the ips vs va confusion. Fact the u8g doesn’t come in 85 compounds this problem. Otherwise u have to go down to a u6g or buy a TCL etc if you can’t wait
@@AndrewDomman did Hisense confirm it? Haven’t seen this. Truly an odd situation knowing how the va vs ips is a common discussion on panels.

My condolences. I would be devastated if something happened to my 900e
I have a Hisense roku tv. Great quality for how cheap it was. I’ve had 0 issues so far.
I was a bit hesitant of the brand, but bought a 65U7G about three weeks ago and am very glad I did. Was planning on a Sony X90J but hated the fact it doesn't have variable width feet, and it was about 50% higher in price at the time of purchase. It's a BEAUTY!!! Highly recommended. The color is very good. Rtings has calibration settings for Theater Night mode which I have utilized, but out of the box setting looks basically the same. Blacks are outstanding as noted. You are right on watching The Night on Netflix (in Dolby Vision). Blooming is non existent! Motion is good and should be set in the "custom" setting. Judder 3, Blur reduction 5 or just go Standard setting which works well. Silver strip? There is none. It's gunmetal, looks really good and the build quality is terrific. Best bang for buck going IMHO.
We need a U7G vs TCL 6 series video! These are my top 2 I’m comparing, is the slight increase from TCL worth it?
Yeah what he said!!!!
I'd say don't wait for the new 6 series which is $300 more money, go with U7G. Highly recommended!

I hate spying devices. i don't use voice commands for anything. for my tv the only use i give it is using the "screen off" command when i want to shut down the image but not the sound. but i don't leave it listening.
"pay a little for a professional calibration." @Digital Trends says this all the time but I don't think they realize what few markets offer that option.
Hi Caleb, can you explain how the U7G outperforms the U8G in terms of lack of blooming and deeper blacks with much fewer local dimming zones? I'm considering the 55" size only. Does it really have that much better real world contrast than the U8G at the expense of peak brightness?
People in the know on the u8g recommend the 65 not the 55 because of more dimming zones, if you are comparing 55 to 55 you're not comparing the best u8g and from what he said here the u7g is his preference in 65 for the better value to performance ratio, not that the u7g is better overall just better value at what these originally retailed for.
I just picked up a refurb u8g 65 for $750 on amazon and that changes the entire value calculation.
The U8G is now under 1000.00 Fantastic tv, especially for next gen gaming. Can't recommend it enough, especially at its current price.
I have a 55” U8G and a 50” u6g and I’m very pleased with both of them. I came from, believe it or not, a LG B6 oled. It was my first and only oled so far. But it does have some pretty serious image retention issues and has for the past couple years. Plus it’s just slow and sluggish compared to the newer TVs/processors. Can’t wait to see what Hisense does in the future
How is the u6g for motion? Movies sports etc
@@oilerguy5494 I’ll be honest with you, I do not know for sports. That tv is in my kids room and they play ps4 and other consoles on it. Those play great btw and the motion is very good while on game settings. We have watched some UA-cam and tubi content with it as well and I have no complaints.
@@chadjones3572 good to know thanks. What do use the u8g for? Cable movies Netflix?
@@oilerguy5494 the U8G is in the living room and it’s used for all things. Gaming and streaming content. Movies look great and motion is great. Hdr is awesome on the U8G due to the peak brightness. Colors are very good. I would say compared to the B6 oled I still prefer the oled because of the pure blacks. But the Hisense is a very very close second. The u6g is nowhere near as bright as the U8G so I’ve been able to personally witness the difference between what good hdr can look like and what it looks like on a lower specd panel. U6G is not that great for hdr content in my opinion. But I’ve been able to experience hdr with the other two TVs so I guess I’m spoiled lol
@@chadjones3572 I’m looking at both u6g and u7g but not sure I necessarily need the extra gaming features the u7g provides even tho I do game a bit. I watch lots of sports so motion on u6g does worry me a bit. It’s just a huge price jump from u6 to u7 and u6 provides such a good picture for the money.
Hisense has been doing this sense they came out.
Affordability meets quality along with their decent warranties. They use to use samsung panels i wonder if they still do.
I adore talking to my TV, I find it incredibly practical, and since my Smart Home is connected to the Google assistant I even use my TV for smart home controls
Man I was so excited to get mine. FedEx delivered today. I helped him carry it up to my house. Unpacked it very carefully. Plugged it in. The whole screen looked like a shattered window. I'm so scared to get the replacement.
Please test the 75U7G and compare it to the 65U7G, especially the black performance in a dark room.
So far I have been enjoying my Hisense H8G 75 inch TV. Got it right at launch. Need a new bedroom/loft TV and will be looking at the 55inch version of this TV.
I bought this TV new today for $648. I'm glad it's a good one. I like saving money and getting quality anyway.

Hey everyone! I’m on a cross country trip, currently departing Omaha! Sorry I haven’t been able to respond to comments, but I’ll be back at it soon!
I've heard that the 75" is a different panel making a completely different experience, mostly bad. Anyone confirm any of this?
Yes, it's an IPS panel. I own one, I had to return my first one cuz the panel was so disgusting. Rolled the dice and got a better replacement, but I will say I have to play with the backlight settings and local dimming to keep black levels from being washed out, especially in the corners at night. Besides that, color, motion and obviously viewing angles I think are pretty darn good
It's a IPS panel. Absolutely horrible. Hisense definitely dropped the ball on this one . I called Hisense myself. Unbelievable. Not the worst but definitely not the same like a VA panel. I just don't understand why ?
unbelievable tv and love the great hisense range
for all the people that are saying Hisense is not a reliable brand I have 3 Hisense tvs
Hisense K560 Series 46 inch still going strong as well as Hisense 50 inch Roku r6
and 65 inch Hisense H9F all are very good tv's with great black level...... even when comparing the 65 inch H9F to my Sony 49inch x950h it's very close after calibration the Sony nudges ahead by a little compared to the Hisense h9f, but the price comparison here in Canada I got the Hisense h9f in April 2020 for $799 plus taxes extended warranty was just over 1k here in Canada from factory direct as for the Sony being about 2x as much I would say the Hisense wins for that reason and for the fact even when they're side by side it's hard to declare a winner considering both TVs are so well made and performance.
Hisense is the best value brand in existence for televisions! 💎🖖🇨🇦
Hisense U7G or TCL 6 mini-led OLED google? is it worth the extra for the TCL?
If you're gonna spend the extra just get the u8g...I got mine yesterday and the picture is insane.

Great review, thanks! This really helped highlight to me how good this TV's performance is with respect to color, black levels, contrast and other key PQ categories.
I had this TV (75”) for a year and a half before I noticed that it had a huge defect on the screen. There was a 6 inch wide rectangle of dark screen on the right side of the screen. I didn’t notice it because it’s not visible in 70% of the scenes in movies/tv shows you will watch. But when the colors are lighter and more solid you can see it. And when you notice it you can’t unnotice it. No setting got rid of it. The backlight in that area is defective. I was very unhappy when Hisense never responded to my emails or calls for support. You can’t even get a human on the phone. And there is no support option even if you want to pay for it. Lesson learned: Buy a TV from a higher end company that will actually give you support and always pixel check your TV with great detail during the return window!
I think last years TCL 65R635 for $899 was the best deal for a 65” under $1k. I’m still in awe of the picture a year later.

This is a great review. Thank you Caleb !!!!! Seldom if ever is anything ever said about the longevity expectancy or reliability of a Television. I recently remember re reading the latest info in Consumer reports. I think they rate Hissense a 4 out of 5 for reliability. Pretty sure it used to be just a 3. I am someone that keeps a TV for years as evidenced by my 32 inch Sony Bravia. Its about ten years old and hasn't missed a beat. Not everyone can afford to upgrade every two or three years so I would like to encourage reviewers to at least touch on projected reliability over a few years. I am chuckling over the fact that Caleb nailed it!!!!!
I am surprised! This tv is looking sweet and a great contender to the Sony X90J which I’m also thinking of.

Everyone is talking about how good this tv is. I wish I can try it.
I got the u8g it’s probably the best tv right now for the price
I avoided TV price increase this year, got my Hisense U8G for just $899 before they raised price on it to $999.
I just got to know the 75 version is not VA, do you will test it ?
Rtings say that the 75 has an IPS panel
Just ordered a 65" version to replace my old Samsung. Looking forward to testing it out when it gets here next week.
To fix the picture colour issue, just set the panel to native under expect settings in pictures mode settings and the colour becomes mesmerising. 10/10
Would you think it would still need calibration after that change ?
Don't like Google - or anything listening in the background. Im old school and like my privacy. But that's me.
I was considering the U8G but you may have convinced me otherwise. I'd like to seed a side by side comparison at my local Best Buy to finalize this decision.
Thanks for a great informative video!!
Just bought this tv for 600$ on Amazon . Can’t wait to see the Xbox series x shine! Thanks for the great review!

Got the 75inch model. It's lovely
I've had my h9f for 3 years no issues
Honestly, I'm not a fan of both the U6G and the U7G TVs. Maybe its because I'm looking for 75in TVs. Both had very poor black performance and Lots of blooming. The fewer local dimming zones were noticeable on the U6G vs the U7G but both weren't impressive. I think the 75in Versions of these tvs use IPS panels vs the 65 and smaller use VA panels. Ended up returning both to get a TCL 6 series with Roku. The TCL looks so much better in my dark condo. Only complaint is that the panel isn't as clean as the Hisense models and Roku is inferior to Adnroid\Google TV. There is significantly more dirty screen effect with the TCL vs the two Hisense TVs i returned. Stick with a 65in for Hisense TVs and save a buck.
What did you mean when you mentioned Australia do we get worse TVs
Thanks for the review. I just bought the 75" version from Walmart in the USA. Right after buying I noticed some comments around the panel for this display. Commenters are saying the panel is an IPS whereas the 65" in the USA, which I believe is the one you reviewed, has a VA panel. The unit is in transit and I am wondering if I should return it. Is the panel really different and if so, how much will this panel affect the performance of the TV?
