I have the U8H and I've been impressed with it's upscaling abilities. I'm a retired pro photographer and a rather picky one at that. As a kid my folks would yell at me to leave the tv controls alone, and I was adjusting the front controls, rear of the cabinet controls, and even the service controls. Yet when people came to visit they remarked how great our TV looked. (late 1960's-and 70's) I've owned TCL 6 series, Panasonic Plasma and various Samsung mid-to high end models. The last few years I've been using calibration with the TCL and Hisense units. The Hisense was the TV where I had the most 'Wow' moments from picture quality.
The U7N, particularly, is such a spectacular value. We've come a long, long way in the last half decade or so. Thanks so much for bringing use these kinds of comparisons, Brian. These are what 95% of the viewing public need to make a solid decision.
The one on the left Brian is the one that I prefer. Great job from Hisense on producing such a good TV for small budgets. Everyone now can have a nice picture at home. Thx Brian.
Just bought the 75" U7N from Costco and it came with the extended warranty and a $100 card to Google Play Movies. Since I bought other items with the TV I got an extra $100 off, so I'm pretty happy with the final cost. I'm excited to get this TV and see how well it performs in my remodeled basement fan cave. Thanks for the great videos. This and the U7N review were very helpful. BTW - This is the 3rd Hisense TV I've bought. I have a 42" and 50" that I've had for several years and have been very happy with them.
@@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY do you think the Sony 85” X90L ($1,899.99) is still a good value for someone on a budget that wants the Sony reliability, the XR clear processor and a big screen? How much lower do you think it’ll go on Black Friday? I’m planning to get mine from Costco for the upgraded backlight remote and the included 5 years warranty. I wish I could buy the 85” Bravia 9 ($4,799.99), buy I don’t think it’s worth paying almost $3K more for my usage (movie and UA-cam streaming). What do you think? Thanks!
I did exactly what you recommended, was comparing the U8N 65" and the U7N 75" and they were both the same sale price so went with the 75" U7N. I am aware the 75" uses the IPS-ADS panel and it will not be as bright as the AV panel but considering I prefer a more toned down natural picture over the current trend to crank the brightness and jack up the colors to them pop I am not concerned about the panel brightness. The added viewing angle is just a bonus and not really a big deal but nice to have.
good choice. Virtually every experienced viewerwho posts on forums, and reviewers on youtube agree that the larger size makes much more difference to a positive viewing experience than slightly better brightness, slightly better contrast, or slightly better tone mapping. Slightly is the key word. 65 to 75 is not slight, it's huge. You don't even use the extra brightness per your comment, nor do I and I have the U8N 65 b/c I can't fit the 75" where I have it. I never have brightness at 100, or contrast at 100. So the extra headroom doesn't even matter since you like a slightly toned down, more natural look. To me the key difference is reflection handling... and I need that to be excellent rather than very good b/c of my bright room. If I viewed off angle a lot, I would have gone with the Sony X93L, or found a way to cram the 75" U8N, b/c I need the excellent reflextion handling.
@@larrydunn4626 I am in a very light/reflection controlled room so I am good. I love the tv EXCEPT for one thing. The wifi will randomly drop out for no reason. Go into the setting menu and turn the wifi off and back on its instantly fixed until the next time. May happen once every two days or a couple of times in one day. I do realize this issue is not uncommon with Hisense TV's and has been pretty widely reported by multiple owners. I have decided for now I am just going to go ahead and purchase a 5 year extended warranty which will cover it down the road if need be. I am hoping it's just a firmware issue that Hisense can straighten out in a near future update. Wifi signal is good and the modem is within about 18 feet of the tv and no other things such as my PC which relies on the same wifi ever has an issue. Also I have used a different tv with a firestick on the same wifi and it never dropped the signal either so it is definitely a Hisense issue.
Thank you for your videos. They helped me decide on getting a “budget friendly” 55” U7N instead of the 55” U8N which was 50% more expensive. I had the misfortune of getting a damn ass expensive 55” OLED LG C2 last year and it just lasted me a damn year. The TV has issues turning on and I googled and it seems to be a factory issue that is very common with the power supply/power board. Sadly in Mexico the warranty only lasts a year and there is no further help so I “needed” a new one and no way in hell I was going to spend premium again. Thanks to your videos, I was able to make a good decision and not feeling like I had to get the premium brand to get good tech.
Thanks for your videos Brian, been watching for some time now. I just ordered a 75" u7n to replace my 7 year old 65" Sony. Great tv but it's too dark in hdr. There's been allot of advances in 7 years and I want to take advantage of them. Thanks again!
Replaced a 7 year old premium 65" Sony because the HDR content was too dark. I watched the 'The dark Knight rises'and the dark scenes were bright on the 75" Hisense u7n!,👍🏼. Watched 'Deadpool and Wolverine' last night and I was even more amazed with both the picture and the brightness. I'm not sure if there's a TV out there below $1000 that can come close to the picture quality. If you're thinking about buying one just pull the trigger, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
Hi Brian I zero 2025 regrets buying my U8N in Nov at the price I did rather than wait another year over minor improvements. I'm glad my Vizio M7 finally got the boot. It was nothing about it's picture quality. It had no search engine and 100% of the screen was filled with DSE all over it.
Wow. The U7N has really raised black levels on theater modes! The U8N looked amazing in theater mode! Especially that 3d effect image! Wow! However that U7N in vivid mode of used as your main bright room tv would be perfect!! For me, I need the better higher quality black levels in light controlled room and shooting for 85” or bigger. Also, the LDZ count on the 85” U8N has me worried. Normal tv/steaming watching, I prefer the the standard and vivid modes! Lastly, my last concern is how the do with dish network and SDR sports upscaling/motion processing. 🎉 thanks!
I’ve been debating b/t the 75” U7N or the Hisense QD7 85” tv. I can’t seem to find any real world reviews of the QD7. The U7N looks damn good tho, to where the extra size might not be necessary
I'm debating between the U7N and the QM7. Saw Fomo's review. Which do you prefer? Using it for cable TV, sports, movies, netflix, Disney+, etc. Not a gamer
Currently seeing the U8N 85" as the same price as a 100" U7N for early Black Friday Sales! I'm stuck! The picture quality looks so much better during this video on the U8N, it's giving me a hard choice. I'm upgrading from a 7/8 year old Sony Bravia, so I'm also thinking the U7N is going to be a great upgrade anyway. Any advice?
Im struggling too. I'm looking at the 100 u76 85 u7n and 85 u8n. If I'm gonna spend 1800 I'd get the u76 for the sheer size n the pic is still good even tho it isn't a mini Led. But I may go for the 85 u7n cause it's only 1300 at best buy installation is free
Trust me you can't go wrong with either and unless you have them side by side there is nothing you'll find to complain about that the U8N doesn't have also. Picture and sound is slightly better, processing tech is the same. In practical uses the extra brightness on the U8N is overkill when the U7N is already incredibly bright and capable of reaching 1500 nits peak brightness.
@@MrFallen1ne there is no 100 inch u7n. He meant the 100 inch u76 which is a regular QLED no mini LED. It has 800 nits of brightness. Reviews I've seen said the picture quality is good tho. It's no mini led but I want that crazy big ass TV so I might get that instead of the 85 inch u8n
85 inch is still big and should be finalized. Size is less favourable than quality. 100 dollars projector too can give you big size but not the best picture quality. So IMO 85 inch best picture quality wins over 100 inch average picture quality TV
Nice video Sir 👍. I Just ordered a u8n to replace a Samsung Q90R that I thought was bright. Looking forward to seeing what double the nits looks like. The old Sammy will go on the wall in my basement living room. As far as this battle the difference for me is the pop in the colours and the details inside dark areas are more prominent on the 8, and the blacks are clearly more inky. The only thing that concerns me is the motion. I like to have motion software turned off, because I hate soap opera effect, and I have a feeling there’s going to be some choppy scenes that I didn’t get as often with the Samsung. For example, the movements of the water in your demo looked like crap.
The vice versa with the picture modes just proves or at least explains that the technology of the TVs is very similar, they just are tweaked differently in their picture modes.. So the U7N would need a picture mode between Standard and Cinema/Film Maker Mode or some calibration.. Is the screen coating of the U8N more clear glossy?
I'd like to purchase one of these (55 inch) for my outdoor covered patio. The U7N is about $250 cheaper than the U8N in this size. Any recommendations for what can show sports, and handle bright light/reflections better? Is it worth it to spend the extra money for an outdoor tv?
Remember that the 55" U8N is quite different from the panel used in the 65" for brightness and dimming zones. I'd probably just go with the U7N in your situation.
check the reflection handling over at rtings. The U8N has best in class reflection handling, and the U7N is much worse than average. is worth the extra $$ based on your outdoor use... at least I'm assuming you need good reflection handling outdoors.
Great comparison Brian! I can’t wait till you give the Bravia 7 a second look, because you reviewed that one real early when it came out. When you do put out the video, can you please let us know how you think it compares to the Samsung qn90d and Hisense u8n. I know oled is awesome, but I’m not quite ready for oled yet, my tv stays on for too long each day. Thanks man

@@PS0212 also google it up “ SONY , Sharp partner up on TV displays” . On CBC site. (CBC is Canadian Broad Casting TV/News Agency) like BBC, they are Federal Official site, not mom n pop paid off small Tech site . Their announcement are legit. Before 2008 SONY were buying Samsung LCDs , SOLD as SONY Bravia (like they are Still doing buying LG OLED as SONY OLED). Then SHARP got --MORE advanced in LCD. SONY dropped Samsung as client, monkey Branched to SHARP TV (SONY was afraid to loose the Title of Leader) to pitched them to “let me invest 20% u pay 80% , build HUGE factories lets merge to be Largest TV provider “ in order for SHARP to agree to LET SONY use their TVS as SONY Bravia . SO 2008-2012 ALL SONY Bravia were SHARP LCE. When SHARP announced --LED 2010, it was HUGE bang!! SONY got lucky that was already as partner, it was able to have 100% . Yes 100% LEDs made by SHARP and SHARP Aquos. They were all made in Japan. So by having the capacity pull that with huge money , they were able to Carry the “ best” reputation . 2010-2011 100% Global LEDS were produced by SHARP Tv! Any LG , Samsung is SHARP . Then Samsung 2011 started to build -LED factories in Mexico. MUCH cheaper for everything n shipping. SONY panic paying $$$ for Japanese premium, went back to their-EX try to get with Samsung AGAIN (which they did). N SONY LG Samsung went back to SHARP TV to “ hey we build own factories, but we will STill use your PREMIUM TV to put in our Flagship, But DO me Mexican price”. Sharp already invested $ 3 - Billion USD built 3 brand new factories with machines in Japan, HUGE debts. Knowing factories sit empty. The Big 3 held SHARP by its neck n like force insane discount. SHARP needed it pay back the bank debts , couldn’t do it. So it feel apart. SONY decided “ Got ya, big L “ went back to Samsung, n invested the next $100 M to samsung to try to RE partnership again. Sharp was in $800 Million USD debts. Hisense bought SHARP TV in 2014, n Toshiba in 2018. They have d TV patterns , most elegant colors. U have to see it to experience it. They are Rich but just huge sense of vibrancy n comfort. WE had $5000 SHARP Original King of Tv.
@@Yoga_Tv_buying lol, you going deep buddy, but I’m listening, can you please tell me which is the best mini led tv overall out of the u8n, Bravia 7, w95a, and qn90d, when it comes to depth (3d effect), clarity, upscaling, contrast, and color pop. Most important qualities I want are listed first. Those are the TVs in my price range. Thanks
Great job comparing these 2 siblings and advice on value per size. However, am limited to 55" tv so the choice is U7 @ $500. or U8 @ $730. Is the up-grade worth the extra $230.00?
Would a comparison of the TCL QM8 with the UN8 ? Would you prefer one over the other? Which is better TcL or Hisense ? Great video by the way u r s pro and Jennifer is off the chain with these incredible mesmerizing images. ❤
Thanks this was the best side to side comparison I have watched.I like the u8n because of what I have seen in other videos you did the best job.What is its sony comparison?
U8N losing some dark gray in HDR Standard, but has that contrasty look that I like -- closer to the OLED look. U7N blows out the brights a bit in that sunset scene, compared to U8N.
It seems that the U7N was generally adjusted brighter which would generally have a bit more washout and lost of detail. Have you calibrated the display to get better match? I know most user would just use it as is out of the box but is good to get the real underlining performance than setting variance.
@llee4225 this is non calibrated. Yes the brightness and gamma can be dropped however if the average person can't or won't know to do it the comparison would have little value. Thank you for watching
Im going for the u8n here in Brazil, because I want something bigger and they are releasing the u7n just in 55"/65". But im crazy to watch this video and see the differences.
Currently, the u7n 75" is on sale for 897.99 and the u8n 75" is 1395.94, Almost a 500 dollar difference. With that said, would you still spend the extra and get the u8n?
Just a heads up that the 75” tvs have ADS PRO screen panels. If deciding which one to get, think of the two as the U7N being the ps5 and U8N being the ps5 pro if that helps 😅
@@tonyy1908also it depends on the age of your previous TV your upgrading from. If it’s less than 4 years old, then the U8N is the best option. Older than 4 years, then the U7N. If you have the disposable income to spend the extra $500 for the best image quality of the two, then U8N. Either choice is good but make sure to calibrate whichever one you choose to get the most out of the TV.
This was one of the best comparisons I've ever seen. Thanks very much for this! Definitley at times the u8n is noticeably better but other times it's much more subtle. The u8n is clearly better but is it really that much better to justify the extra $$$?
One thing that used to be commonplace in TV reviews was tuner testing. I have yet to find anyone doing that today. People seem to forget that there's free over the air (OTA) broadcast of all the major networks and watch subpar streaming that they have to subscribe to. I'm rather p*ssed off at how the broadcasters have been dragging their feet with broadcasting in ATSC 3.0. I've had the hardware (HDHomeRun) capable of decoding it for years. Unfortunately I live in an area surrounded by mountains that block direct broadcasts from a major city 150 miles away. Every year I write the local broadcasters about when we will get it and the only reply is "we are working on it".
I must admit it's a great comparison video but having looked at both of these TVs side by side, my ADHD wants me to purchase the U8N but I can't afford it but I know in getting the U7N Is no slouch. What do you mean at about the 20:05 mark by bringing the HDR standard preset down a notch and how would one do that?
He means that each Preset set of settings can be changed. They are a starting point. I start with a preset... say Filmmaker mode for nightime, and Standard mode for daytime, but I have adjusted the settings in each to suit my taste and my perception. I picked each b/c I like the basic handling of color. Standard to me gives more accurate color than Filmmaker Day, can't say why, that is just how i see it. Then I adjust first Gamma, then Brightness, then Contrast, then go over to Color and slide the Color left or right to fit the Brightness settings I chose. For HDR content you can still make similar adjustments to Brightness, Contrast, Color, etc.
Sorry everyone dont know me.But i think yous and Brians videos are great.Even though i just have a 55in.samsung.Looking to get a 65in.Some time in 2025 or 2026 For sure.Since im not that young anymore.Even though it makes me sometimes wish i should go with at least a 75 or even 85in.But since im not really rich.And still wound be ok with at least 65in.too.Since dont have to much room on my wall and thats all my tv stand can handle.p.s.

Dear Dude.. don't worry.. definitely due to tough competition ...in the near future..prices will go down then you can go for 75 or 85 inches .. May God Bless..
Very informative and useful, thank you! I'm kinda shocked at how good that U7N is! But I _notice_ that extra detail in the shadows of the U8N. I'm gonna be hemming and hawwing for a while about whether the difference is _two hundred and fifty dollars_ better, but this video is helping a lot.
I had 65" u8g and it was pretty good. The software went crazy but they were out of new tv's so they refunded my money. The u8n looks so much better although I had a brighter room back then and the u8g was very bright.
I have U8G 65”. Once u See U8N U8K u will Notice Significant UPGRADE. So with Similar brightness, the almost 5X local dimming zones, and 2X color Density of U8G makes the image Clear Neat next level. The Color Density caste on Brightness 🔆 suddently that bright color is NOT so distracting. Like at night if a Bright laser color on the wall --LED light show, vs same brightness but white/thin color. The U8N has 3X-Color Densithy of LG G3 G4. For Larger tv 75” 85” , depends on the content, U8N will look EVEN more 3D than G3 G4 due to THICK color density able to produce Absolutely 💯 3D more transition shades from (denser color) on “ leaf 🍁, skin tone, flowers….🌺 “ vs 🌸 (G3 G4) .
Any suggestions for getting a clear image on the Hisense U7N for gaming? Picture quality is amazing for tv use and with Apple TV 4K but drops completely when playing games (specifically PS5)
It's an HDMI 2.1 cable. Try this, in the enhancements HDMI section don't go up to 144HZ as it's not needed for console. Just use the second option that is for vrr 4k 120 and turn off 144hz boost.
I'd say I like the value of the U7. I can calibrate to get exactly what I want out of it. But yeah, the inky blacks and dimming on the U8 is obviously an improvement
@@joshp9964TV Technology have jump leaps in the last half decade, even comparing brands like LG to Hisense, the newer hisense ULED will look wayyyy better than an older regular LED LG.

@chrisbullock6477 Tbf much of what he says is valid. Tizen os does suck, and samsung does nerf their tv from my experience of them literally removing functionality which had a dedicated remote, making that button useless. They also removed flash player support from the built in web browser. I'm sure the current version of tizen is better than what I've experienced, but it's still tizen and lacks a lot of features, capabilities and functionality!

The problem with Hisense is DIRTY SCREEN problems. I've had 2 Hisense TVs, and after about 4 years, big dirty blotches of yellow and cream appeared all over the screens. I'm ready to upgrade, and to be honest, I'm looking at TCL QM8 and Panasonic. No more screen roulette for me.
Only downside I would say to the u8n is the fact that Hisense gimped the amount of dimming zones on the 85 in which has far less than the 65 in which doesn't make any sense
Its fine buddy. The 85” x95L 2023 only has like 700 something local dimming zone. Who cares. Once u have more zones, larger screen it needs better processing. Kinda like Once getting SUV 🚙 putting larger engine still require Break system, larger wheels all that. So they are doig it for best over all image. Prob intentional.
Absolutely U8n. I have seen S95D 75” 85” in bestbuy. It looks GREAT, but just the 2022 U8H already look like 2024 QN90D. Because since 2022 QN95B, Samsung NO longer selling their QN95 models in USA/Canada, but only in Asia/EU. Since yearly the U8 compete with the QN95 level …u know what I am saying.

I'm still confused... I don't know wich one is the best choice between U8N 85" vs U7N 100" for the same price... I really ned a kick in my ass and someone telling me: go for that tv MF!!! Pd: MF is for Miguel Fuentes
It's really about the immersion factor. They are not close in size and ask good as the U8N it cannot overcome the size and excellent picture quality of the U7N. If you have the space and the want then grab the 100.
@@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY Watch out! The 100-inch Hisense U7N is not Mini-LED. It's QLED. I was about to buy it, but when I looked into the specs, I realized this. Confused, I called the Hisense Call Center and they confirmed it. I'm so frustrated.
I don't even watch HDR much... and 95% of your video is about HDR. I just want a good TV for a bright room cable channel use, UA-cam Premium 1080P Enhanced bitrate, and a fair amount of Netflix and Amazon Prime delivered movies. All with lots of reflections in day which is about half my usage, with nighttime about half. Give more time to SDR in your comparo. Actually I cannot even tell from your comparo whether U8N is better than U7N for SDR. I ordered U8N mostly b/c it apparently has better reflection handling for my bright room daytime usage. The extra $200 for U8N vs. U7N 65" really is nothing over several years of daily use.... like two dimes a day over three years. Replacing a 2016 Samsung KS8000 which now has a 2" vertical brownish band a little off center, and two very bright 5" streaks of curved light in the bottom 20% of the screen near the center.
I appreciate your comment my friend. HDR or not the TV'S perform the same which is why I don't film in HDR. The U8N is an excellent choice. Enjoy and thank you for watching
I have the U8H and I've been impressed with it's upscaling abilities. I'm a retired pro photographer and a rather picky one at that. As a kid my folks would yell at me to leave the tv controls alone, and I was adjusting the front controls, rear of the cabinet controls, and even the service controls. Yet when people came to visit they remarked how great our TV looked. (late 1960's-and 70's) I've owned TCL 6 series, Panasonic Plasma and various Samsung mid-to high end models. The last few years I've been using calibration with the TCL and Hisense units. The Hisense was the TV where I had the most 'Wow' moments from picture quality.
The U7N, particularly, is such a spectacular value. We've come a long, long way in the last half decade or so. Thanks so much for bringing use these kinds of comparisons, Brian. These are what 95% of the viewing public need to make a solid decision.
The one on the left Brian is the one that I prefer. Great job from Hisense on producing such a good TV for small budgets. Everyone now can have a nice picture at home. Thx Brian.
Agree Jen.
Perfectly said❤
Got my u7n yesterday and I love it
@@dilucragnvindr4006 awesome!! So glad to hear it
Excited to see this since I'm in the market for a new TV and the U7N was on my radar
Just bought the 75" U7N from Costco and it came with the extended warranty and a $100 card to Google Play Movies. Since I bought other items with the TV I got an extra $100 off, so I'm pretty happy with the final cost. I'm excited to get this TV and see how well it performs in my remodeled basement fan cave. Thanks for the great videos. This and the U7N review were very helpful. BTW - This is the 3rd Hisense TV I've bought. I have a 42" and 50" that I've had for several years and have been very happy with them.
Wow, great deal! Enjoy! Thank you so much for watching
Thanks for all you do Brian, this video solidified me getting the U7n in the next month
@@atj87_ Awesome!!
@@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY do you think the Sony 85” X90L ($1,899.99) is still a good value for someone on a budget that wants the Sony reliability, the XR clear processor and a big screen? How much lower do you think it’ll go on Black Friday? I’m planning to get mine from Costco for the upgraded backlight remote and the included 5 years warranty. I wish I could buy the 85” Bravia 9 ($4,799.99), buy I don’t think it’s worth paying almost $3K more for my usage (movie and UA-cam streaming). What do you think? Thanks!
What do you think of tcl qm8/tcl c855 please suggest
Great content, top notch every time🎉🎉🎉 eagerly waiting for the u7k vs u7n video!
I did exactly what you recommended, was comparing the U8N 65" and the U7N 75" and they were both the same sale price so went with the 75" U7N.
I am aware the 75" uses the IPS-ADS panel and it will not be as bright as the AV panel but considering I prefer a more toned down natural picture over the current trend to crank the brightness and jack up the colors to them pop I am not concerned about the panel brightness.
The added viewing angle is just a bonus and not really a big deal but nice to have.
Thanks for this mate, I'm currently debating between the two as well and you've pushed my just a bit more towards the U7N
good choice. Virtually every experienced viewerwho posts on forums, and reviewers on youtube agree that the larger size makes much more difference to a positive viewing experience than slightly better brightness, slightly better contrast, or slightly better tone mapping. Slightly is the key word. 65 to 75 is not slight, it's huge. You don't even use the extra brightness per your comment, nor do I and I have the U8N 65 b/c I can't fit the 75" where I have it. I never have brightness at 100, or contrast at 100. So the extra headroom doesn't even matter since you like a slightly toned down, more natural look. To me the key difference is reflection handling... and I need that to be excellent rather than very good b/c of my bright room. If I viewed off angle a lot, I would have gone with the Sony X93L, or found a way to cram the 75" U8N, b/c I need the excellent reflextion handling.
@@larrydunn4626 I am in a very light/reflection controlled room so I am good.
I love the tv EXCEPT for one thing.
The wifi will randomly drop out for no reason.
Go into the setting menu and turn the wifi off and back on its instantly fixed until the next time.
May happen once every two days or a couple of times in one day.
I do realize this issue is not uncommon with Hisense TV's and has been pretty widely reported by multiple owners.
I have decided for now I am just going to go ahead and purchase a 5 year extended warranty which will cover it down the road if need be.
I am hoping it's just a firmware issue that Hisense can straighten out in a near future update.
Wifi signal is good and the modem is within about 18 feet of the tv and no other things such as my PC which relies on the same wifi ever has an issue.
Also I have used a different tv with a firestick on the same wifi and it never dropped the signal either so it is definitely a Hisense issue.
Thank you for your videos. They helped me decide on getting a “budget friendly” 55” U7N instead of the 55” U8N which was 50% more expensive.
I had the misfortune of getting a damn ass expensive 55” OLED LG C2 last year and it just lasted me a damn year. The TV has issues turning on and I googled and it seems to be a factory issue that is very common with the power supply/power board. Sadly in Mexico the warranty only lasts a year and there is no further help so I “needed” a new one and no way in hell I was going to spend premium again.
Thanks to your videos, I was able to make a good decision and not feeling like I had to get the premium brand to get good tech.
I'm so sorry for what happened to your TV, my friend. I'm glad my video was able to help in some small way. Thank you so much for watching
@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY thank you for making this
The pleasure is mine my friend
in Mexico did you buy yout TVs from Sam's Club?
@larrydunn4626 I got it from Liverpool and just got the standard 1 year warranty and it f'ed up on the 14th month 🫠
Are there any comparisons between the ADS-Pro panel and the VA that Hisense uses?
Thanks for your videos Brian, been watching for some time now. I just ordered a 75" u7n to replace my 7 year old 65" Sony. Great tv but it's too dark in hdr. There's been allot of advances in 7 years and I want to take advantage of them. Thanks again!
Awesome! Great comment! Enjoy your new TV and thank you for being here
Which tv is too dark?
@@t.k.morris not sure, but the u7n I just bought is amazing, especially at the price. Replaced a Sony
Replaced a 7 year old premium 65" Sony because the HDR content was too dark. I watched the 'The dark Knight rises'and the dark scenes were bright on the 75" Hisense u7n!,👍🏼. Watched 'Deadpool and Wolverine' last night and I was even more amazed with both the picture and the brightness. I'm not sure if there's a TV out there below $1000 that can come close to the picture quality. If you're thinking about buying one just pull the trigger, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
Awesome comparison..
So glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for watching!
Would like to see a comparison of the 75” models that use an ADS pro panel instead of VA
U7n here now since 2weeks.Great TV ❤
Hi Brian I zero 2025 regrets buying my U8N in Nov at the price I did rather than wait another year over minor improvements. I'm glad my Vizio M7 finally got the boot.
It was nothing about it's picture quality. It had no search engine and 100% of the screen was filled with DSE all over it.
So you would recommend if I’m buying a 75inch go with the U7n because it is more vivid and it has a ADS Pro panel?
Nice review! Would love to see something similar with the 75" ADS Pro panels. There's very little out there on those
A comparison between last years U8K and this years U7N would be great. Which one would you recommend?
I'll try and get that done for you my friend. With Hisense I'd always go for the newer TV as processing improves every year
@@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY Thanks. Appreciate your reply.
@robertdratwia my pleasure! Thank-you for being here
Between u7 and u8 in 55" will be used for gaming and movies...is it worth spending 200$ more for the u8?
Lookimg for a 98-inch tv or larger. Don't want to spemd a fortune. What brand and model would you recommend?
Wow. The U7N has really raised black levels on theater modes! The U8N looked amazing in theater mode! Especially that 3d effect image! Wow!
However that U7N in vivid mode of used as your main bright room tv would be perfect!!
For me, I need the better higher quality black levels in light controlled room and shooting for 85” or bigger. Also, the LDZ count on the 85” U8N has me worried.
Normal tv/steaming watching, I prefer the the standard and vivid modes!
Lastly, my last concern is how the do with dish network and SDR sports upscaling/motion processing. 🎉 thanks!
I don't understand as well why the 85 U8N have lower dimming zones
Any opinion on the 75” ads / ips models? Trying to decide if I want to spend the extra $400 on the u8n…. IPS panel scares me on both…
I’ve been debating b/t the 75” U7N or the Hisense QD7 85” tv. I can’t seem to find any real world reviews of the QD7. The U7N looks damn good tho, to where the extra size might not be necessary
I'm debating between the U7N and the QM7. Saw Fomo's review. Which do you prefer? Using it for cable TV, sports, movies, netflix, Disney+, etc. Not a gamer
Did you do the viewing angle comparison.
Currently seeing the U8N 85" as the same price as a 100" U7N for early Black Friday Sales! I'm stuck! The picture quality looks so much better during this video on the U8N, it's giving me a hard choice. I'm upgrading from a 7/8 year old Sony Bravia, so I'm also thinking the U7N is going to be a great upgrade anyway. Any advice?
Im struggling too. I'm looking at the 100 u76 85 u7n and 85 u8n. If I'm gonna spend 1800 I'd get the u76 for the sheer size n the pic is still good even tho it isn't a mini Led. But I may go for the 85 u7n cause it's only 1300 at best buy installation is free
Trust me you can't go wrong with either and unless you have them side by side there is nothing you'll find to complain about that the U8N doesn't have also.
Picture and sound is slightly better, processing tech is the same.
In practical uses the extra brightness on the U8N is overkill when the U7N is already incredibly bright and capable of reaching 1500 nits peak brightness.
@@MrFallen1ne there is no 100 inch u7n. He meant the 100 inch u76 which is a regular QLED no mini LED. It has 800 nits of brightness. Reviews I've seen said the picture quality is good tho. It's no mini led but I want that crazy big ass TV so I might get that instead of the 85 inch u8n
85 inch is still big and should be finalized. Size is less favourable than quality. 100 dollars projector too can give you big size but not the best picture quality. So IMO 85 inch best picture quality wins over 100 inch average picture quality TV
I'm trying to decide between 75" U7N and the 65" U8N. Both are 899 right now.
Nice video Sir 👍. I Just ordered a u8n to replace a Samsung Q90R that I thought was bright. Looking forward to seeing what double the nits looks like. The old Sammy will go on the wall in my basement living room. As far as this battle the difference for me is the pop in the colours and the details inside dark areas are more prominent on the 8, and the blacks are clearly more inky. The only thing that concerns me is the motion. I like to have motion software turned off, because I hate soap opera effect, and I have a feeling there’s going to be some choppy scenes that I didn’t get as often with the Samsung. For example, the movements of the water in your demo looked like crap.
The vice versa with the picture modes just proves or at least explains that the technology of the TVs is very similar, they just are tweaked differently in their picture modes..
So the U7N would need a picture mode between Standard and Cinema/Film Maker Mode or some calibration..
Is the screen coating of the U8N more clear glossy?
I'd like to purchase one of these (55 inch) for my outdoor covered patio. The U7N is about $250 cheaper than the U8N in this size. Any recommendations for what can show sports, and handle bright light/reflections better? Is it worth it to spend the extra money for an outdoor tv?
Remember that the 55" U8N is quite different from the panel used in the 65" for brightness and dimming zones. I'd probably just go with the U7N in your situation.
check the reflection handling over at rtings. The U8N has best in class reflection handling, and the U7N is much worse than average. is worth the extra $$ based on your outdoor use... at least I'm assuming you need good reflection handling outdoors.
Great comparison Brian! I can’t wait till you give the Bravia 7 a second look, because you reviewed that one real early when it came out. When you do put out the video, can you please let us know how you think it compares to the Samsung qn90d and Hisense u8n. I know oled is awesome, but I’m not quite ready for oled yet, my tv stays on for too long each day. Thanks man
Bravia 7 is --SEVERLY Matted. Anything that Average grey/dim its UN Watchable any time u are NOT in pitch black room or just dim room. And its VERY pestle.

I understand it has the fifth best contrast (which is not a bad number) when it comes to only 2024 models that also have 65 inch sizes, which is as big as I can go. But when you cancel out the multi-thousand dollar tv (Bravia 9), and the fact that we still watch a lot of sdr and a whole lot of sports, so I want good processing, motion, and upscaling, plus I’m in a light controlled room. Why would I not consider the Bravia 7, and want to see what it can do against the w95a, qn90d, and the u8n
@@PS0212 well said, all valid points. Totally agree, cuz cars with 400hp by diff brand all perfom differently.
Since ur question was U8N or Bravia 7 so i only mentioned U8N.
If u have mentioned Bravia 9 in question , then I would have said--U9N . I mean if someone” BMW X3 or Infiniti QX60 which one?” If I say “INFINITI QX60 with 13 BOSE speakers V6 4 wheel drive. “ by answering the QUESTION, i wont think receiving :” BUT u know BMW X5 is better right?>” whats d point asking a Question of U8 vs B7 first place???
Bravia 9 even tho NOT matted like Bravia7 , has rainbow smear 🌈, it’s a entire scren blur adding a LONG line of bright SPARZ. Those are VERY BLUNT Cross entire tv screen lighting negates the whole purpose of HAVING Bright tv in Bright room .
2ndly, SONY LEDs are Blue tinted. ❄️. blue casted. NOT @ fault NO ONE on UA-cam or “Professional TV CAlibration” will MENTION to u since MOST TECH guy go to “ computer science/IT/ Eletrical Enginnering, construction etc….” If they go to Bio Science actually PHD professor research scientist will explain :

SO this applies to TV. the SONY LED is long known as the Blue tinted. YES since Hollywood Caneras were DONATED by SONY , why would they NOT be able to later claim “ color accuracy (towards film)” ?? when ANY brand TV thats over Blue tinted is --Anti Natrual. and if watch dim visuals documentaires, can get the Cloudy day blue feel on the whites, n greys. lacking the pop n warmth of spacial visual which is required by Warmth 🌤️--(even the Summer Sunset, when its DIM but Warm sun reds /yellow, still creat more Spacial visual / rich cozy🍁🥮color, than cloudy day same type of Dim as summer 🌅, everything Zoom OUT/flat. its subtle.

@@PS0212 also google it up “ SONY , Sharp partner up on TV displays” . On CBC site. (CBC is Canadian Broad Casting TV/News Agency) like BBC, they are Federal Official site, not mom n pop paid off small Tech site . Their announcement are legit.
Before 2008 SONY were buying Samsung LCDs , SOLD as SONY Bravia (like they are Still doing buying LG OLED as SONY OLED). Then SHARP got --MORE advanced in LCD.
SONY dropped Samsung as client, monkey Branched to SHARP TV (SONY was afraid to loose the Title of Leader) to pitched them to “let me invest 20% u pay 80% , build HUGE factories lets merge to be Largest TV provider “ in order for SHARP to agree to LET SONY use their TVS as SONY Bravia .
SO 2008-2012 ALL SONY Bravia were SHARP LCE. When SHARP announced --LED 2010, it was HUGE bang!! SONY got lucky that was already as partner, it was able to have 100% . Yes 100% LEDs made by SHARP and SHARP Aquos. They were all made in Japan.
So by having the capacity pull that with huge money , they were able to Carry the “ best” reputation . 2010-2011 100% Global LEDS were produced by SHARP Tv! Any LG , Samsung is SHARP . Then Samsung 2011 started to build -LED factories in Mexico. MUCH cheaper for everything n shipping.
SONY panic paying $$$ for Japanese premium, went back to their-EX try to get with Samsung AGAIN (which they did). N SONY LG Samsung went back to SHARP TV to “ hey we build own factories, but we will STill use your PREMIUM TV to put in our Flagship, But DO me Mexican price”.
Sharp already invested $ 3 - Billion USD built 3 brand new factories with machines in Japan, HUGE debts. Knowing factories sit empty. The Big 3 held SHARP by its neck n like force insane discount. SHARP needed it pay back the bank debts , couldn’t do it. So it feel apart. SONY decided “ Got ya, big L “ went back to Samsung, n invested the next $100 M to samsung to try to RE partnership again.
Sharp was in $800 Million USD debts. Hisense bought SHARP TV in 2014, n Toshiba in 2018.

Most important qualities I want are listed first. Those are the TVs in my price range. Thanks
Great job comparing these 2 siblings and advice on value per size. However, am limited to 55" tv so the choice is U7 @ $500. or U8 @ $730. Is the up-grade worth the extra $230.00?
It most definitely is! Trust me
What is the difference in the viewing angles between the U7N and the U8N in 70 inch? Is there one that performs better?
u know they don't come 70" right? Anyway 75" only U8N and U7N both have ads pro screen that has good off angle picture quality.
Would a comparison of the TCL QM8 with the UN8 ? Would you prefer one over the other? Which is better TcL or Hisense ? Great video by the way u r s pro and Jennifer is off the chain with these incredible mesmerizing images. ❤
Thanks this was the best side to side comparison I have watched.I like the u8n because of what I have seen in other videos you did the best job.What is its sony comparison?
U8N losing some dark gray in HDR Standard, but has that contrasty look that I like -- closer to the OLED look. U7N blows out the brights a bit in that sunset scene, compared to U8N.
Great Review!!! Thank u
It seems that the U7N was generally adjusted brighter which would generally have a bit more washout and lost of detail. Have you calibrated the display to get better match? I know most user would just use it as is out of the box but is good to get the real underlining performance than setting variance.
@llee4225 this is non calibrated. Yes the brightness and gamma can be dropped however if the average person can't or won't know to do it the comparison would have little value. Thank you for watching

Got a 55 inch u7n 3 weeks ago use with my ps5 pro
Currently, the u7n 75" is on sale for 897.99 and the u8n 75" is 1395.94, Almost a 500 dollar difference. With that said, would you still spend the extra and get the u8n?
Help?
Just a heads up that the 75” tvs have ADS PRO screen panels. If deciding which one to get, think of the two as the U7N being the ps5 and U8N being the ps5 pro if that helps 😅
@@tonyy1908also it depends on the age of your previous TV your upgrading from. If it’s less than 4 years old, then the U8N is the best option. Older than 4 years, then the U7N. If you have the disposable income to spend the extra $500 for the best image quality of the two, then U8N. Either choice is good but make sure to calibrate whichever one you choose to get the most out of the TV.
@@DominiqueXRP How does one calibrate the tv?
You didn’t touch on SOUND
This was one of the best comparisons I've ever seen. Thanks very much for this! Definitley at times the u8n is noticeably better but other times it's much more subtle. The u8n is clearly better but is it really that much better to justify the extra $$$?
Thank you so much and I'm so glad you enjoyed. For me the U8N is worth the extra money. Thank you so much for watching
Doesn't look like the u8n is made in 100 in. do you think it's better to get the UN 7inch 100 in versus the u8n 86 in?
One thing that used to be commonplace in TV reviews was tuner testing. I have yet to find anyone doing that today. People seem to forget that there's free over the air (OTA) broadcast of all the major networks and watch subpar streaming that they have to subscribe to. I'm rather p*ssed off at how the broadcasters have been dragging their feet with broadcasting in ATSC 3.0. I've had the hardware (HDHomeRun) capable of decoding it for years. Unfortunately I live in an area surrounded by mountains that block direct broadcasts from a major city 150 miles away. Every year I write the local broadcasters about when we will get it and the only reply is "we are working on it".
I must admit it's a great comparison video but having looked at both of these TVs side by side, my ADHD wants me to purchase the U8N but I can't afford it but I know in getting the U7N Is no slouch.
What do you mean at about the 20:05 mark by bringing the HDR standard preset down a notch and how would one do that?
He means that each Preset set of settings can be changed. They are a starting point. I start with a preset... say Filmmaker mode for nightime, and Standard mode for daytime, but I have adjusted the settings in each to suit my taste and my perception. I picked each b/c I like the basic handling of color. Standard to me gives more accurate color than Filmmaker Day, can't say why, that is just how i see it. Then I adjust first Gamma, then Brightness, then Contrast, then go over to Color and slide the Color left or right to fit the Brightness settings I chose. For HDR content you can still make similar adjustments to Brightness, Contrast, Color, etc.
I would always pay more money for a better image and size. That's just me. Thanks Brian!
My pleasure, Mark! Thank you for watching!
My friend there is nothing wrong with the U7N or U8 they all good tv I q80c & qn90c and they don’t last more than 5 months
@@MVP-JByou’re saying the U7N and U8N will last, right?
@@tinocabral4201 yes they will
Sorry everyone dont know me.But i think yous and Brians videos are great.Even though i just have a 55in.samsung.Looking to get a 65in.Some time in 2025 or 2026 For sure.Since im not that young anymore.Even though it makes me sometimes wish i should go with at least a 75 or even 85in.But since im not really rich.And still wound be ok with at least 65in.too.Since dont have to much room on my wall and thats all my tv stand can handle.p.s. Thank you for letting me share this with you all.Have a nice day Jennifergala and Brian and everyone who liks tvs or and televisions.Hope they ll make a micro LED TV or television in a 65in in the future or by as soon as 2028 or 2029.
Dear Dude.. don't worry.. definitely due to tough competition ...in the near future..prices will go down then you can go for 75 or 85 inches ..
May God Bless..
like ur options sometimes the size is more important than pic quality
16:48 But is the U7N better than the U8K? (both 55")
Very informative and useful, thank you! I'm kinda shocked at how good that U7N is! But I _notice_ that extra detail in the shadows of the U8N. I'm gonna be hemming and hawwing for a while about whether the difference is _two hundred and fifty dollars_ better, but this video is helping a lot.
I had 65" u8g and it was pretty good. The software went crazy but they were out of new tv's so they refunded my money. The u8n looks so much better although I had a brighter room back then and the u8g was very bright.
I have U8G 65”. Once u See U8N U8K u will Notice Significant UPGRADE. So with Similar brightness, the almost 5X local dimming zones, and 2X color Density of U8G makes the image Clear Neat next level.
The Color Density caste on Brightness 🔆 suddently that bright color is NOT so distracting.
Like at night if a Bright laser color on the wall --LED light show, vs same brightness but white/thin color.
The U8N has 3X-Color Densithy of LG G3 G4. For Larger tv 75” 85” , depends on the content, U8N will look EVEN more 3D than G3 G4 due to THICK color density able to produce Absolutely 💯 3D more transition shades from (denser color) on “ leaf 🍁, skin tone, flowers….🌺 “ vs 🌸 (G3 G4) .
Thank you for your response.
Hi Brian how does the U8N compare to the 65" VA panel Samsung QN90D?
You'll next week when I compare them my . Stay tuned
@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY Awesome, will do.
Any suggestions for getting a clear image on the Hisense U7N for gaming? Picture quality is amazing for tv use and with Apple TV 4K but drops completely when playing games (specifically PS5)
you need the right cable 2.1 hdmi
@ I believe the cable that comes with the ps5 is HDMI 2.1..unless it’s not?
It's an HDMI 2.1 cable. Try this, in the enhancements HDMI section don't go up to 144HZ as it's not needed for console. Just use the second option that is for vrr 4k 120 and turn off 144hz boost.
Would you go so far as to say this years U7N is like last years U8N? And this years U8N is like last years UX? 🎉
No, I just bought a U7N and I also have the U8K (last years). The U8K is still way superior, even though 7N is better value IMO
I'd say I like the value of the U7.
I can calibrate to get exactly what I want out of it.
But yeah, the inky blacks and dimming on the U8 is obviously an improvement
So I want a 85 inch . Which one do yall recommend?
One of these: U7N or U8K??
Hello a question?? If better the u76 100 inch or the u8n 85 inch?? Please help me is for a dedicate dark room like a home theater??
@rh12345ful size will always depend and the space and need. If you have the space for 100" them grab it. The 85" can't grow
Think i would be happy with either. I have a 9 yr old lg led.
You'll be very happy my friend
@@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY how would one of these compare to a old $600 LG led tv? Be nice to see a comparison video of that.
@@joshp9964TV Technology have jump leaps in the last half decade, even comparing brands like LG to Hisense, the newer hisense ULED will look wayyyy better than an older regular LED LG.

bravia 7 vs Hisense U8N vs panasonic W95A please. I will give money for that ! thanks
I second this!! 🎉
I second this! 🎉 haha. Also, please include SDR upscaling with live content and motion processing in the that comparisons! 🎉
just know the Bravia 7 has the 3rd worst reflection handling in the history of rtings reflection ratings. It's a dark room only choice.
@@larrydunn4626 bought a Bravia 8 77” and I don’t have to worry about reflections. My living room doesn’t have a window facing the tv.
Really impressed with the u8n , will be interesting if it betters the bravia 7
Guess what I get to watch when I get home? The Hockey Stick man video. I'm ready to see how well it does on my own DSE test.
You get what you pay for at that means OLED and SONY. However, the U7N is perhaps the best tv out there to get you a good tv and save you lots of green😊
If it were me Brian I would take the U8N. The U7N looks to washed out at times for my taste. Great video my brother.
When?
Tomorrow at 5:30
I got the u7n 75 for 900, cant complain with that deal. let's see how it goes.
how are you liking the ADS panel on the 75"? Currently considering between 75 and 65
The 65 u7 is $699 and the 65 u8 is 899. Is it worth $200 more?
It definitely is. Much better depth and contrast ratio. The build quality alone is worth it
Thanks for your reply
Best buy has 85inch U8N for $1800! Amazing deal we almost got it but my wife and I held off and prefer to wait until black Friday for 77inch Samsung S90D
NOOOOO, buddy. I HAVE seen 2022 U8H, 2023 U8K, 2021 Samsung QN95A, 2022 QN95B, 2023 QN90C. I have seen 75” QN90D. (I LIVE 4 min WALK 500m from Bestbuy lol.
QN90D is GOOD tv, but EVER since 2022 QN95B, they STOP putting their QN95 models in USA/Canada .
In 2022 U8H already look BETTER than QN95B, actually almost identical to S95B in person.
The QN90D looks JUST look more like the 2022 U8H , exact the SAME native contrast, Same dynamnic contrast. Maybe slightly hight color volume by like 10%. (U r welcome to Check on rtings).
And Samsung has Tzen OS , NOT Google OS. Its not very good . Because they launch software update that Nerf yr tv. Its known then constantly yearly . U have to keep worry ppl in your house visit accidentally “ connect tv to Internet”. They all do that. SONY sent Update Nerf the SONY XM4 before the XM5 launch, MY SONY XM4 $350 Ear bud Bricked (they try to speed up battery death but over did it, it died within 4 weeks) destroyed millions of-those, SONY did Quiet “re call “ by offering “ free repair etc”.

@@Yoga_Tv_buying oh my God! You really need some friends and need to get out more.
@chrisbullock6477 Tbf much of what he says is valid.
Tizen os does suck, and samsung does nerf their tv from my experience of them literally removing functionality which had a dedicated remote, making that button useless. They also removed flash player support from the built in web browser.
I'm sure the current version of tizen is better than what I've experienced, but it's still tizen and lacks a lot of features, capabilities and functionality!
@@chrisbullock6477 He gave you great information about the two TVs you're deciding between. Just b/c he gave you detailed information that suggests you made a poor decision doesn't mean you have to insult him. Grow up.
U8n55 o u7n65?
WE need a comparison With a Panasonic w95a they are very cheap in Europe. 75 Inch for only 1800
I'm just getting the U7N in 65". The differences between these two are minimal and will save a couple hundred dollars. Besides, Costco doesn't offer the U8 so they kinda make the decision for me.
Hope you enjoy! Thank you for watching
4:33 Wow, this looks like 3d 😮😱
No brainer U8N all day, the difference in price is so small why skimp on performance
No sir U7N 75" $897 U8N 75"$1497 that's not a small difference a few hundred more, and it's double the price.
I'm trying to decide between the 75" U7N and the 65" U8N. Both are priced the same right now.
Im torn between the 85 inch u7n which is 1300 at best buy right now and the 85 inch u8n which is 1800. The 75 inch u8n is only 1400 but 10 inches smaller. Free installation for the 85 u7n. Then the u76 is 1800 at 100 inches picking a TV shouldn't b this difficult lol. Decisions decisions lol
If you really need the size the U7N is the one. As good as the U8N is , it can't get larger😁
@@BRIANSTECHTHERAPYtrue lol what's ur take on the 100 u76 my only concern is that it's not a mini Led.
@ajharris1984 I have the same concerns. I want a 98 imch tv or larger, but I don't want to spend vacation money but want quality pictures and to last longer than 5 years.
@@shanew7361 I ended up goin wit the 85 u7n cuz it was 500 dollars cheaper n I'm happy with it. The u76n is 100 inches but it's not a mini LED n only 256 dimming zones but ppl say, the pic quality is pretty gd for the price of 1800
QD7 vs U7N ?
I got one 65 for 700 eur n7.
N8 is 1100eur in Croatia
I got the 75" U8N in July for around $1200 USD , got a great deal & have no regrets as at that price it was the same as most other store had the same size U7N here in Canada
How do you like the ips panel? 😊
@@BB-xn1rw Loving it so far, only issue I have noticed is streaming F1 but I believe that is a Chromecast problem due to the lower 50hz framerate.
Anything was a upgrade over my previous 10+ year old 1080p TV's but I would buy it again.
@ bright room? My fam room has a ton of windows…
@@BB-xn1rw it's in my living room with a big patio slider next to in but in still looks pretty good, better with the blinds closed or at night off course
I want more about game(u8m).
And productivity on PC for me. (show coding IDEs to productivity apps and design tools say from Adobe or Affinity).
The problem with Hisense is DIRTY SCREEN problems. I've had 2 Hisense TVs, and after about 4 years, big dirty blotches of yellow and cream appeared all over the screens. I'm ready to upgrade, and to be honest, I'm looking at TCL QM8 and Panasonic. No more screen roulette for me.
If had the same problem with tcl….
Can compare u8n vs Qn90c
UN8 65 better from QN90C QN90D - see the review on RTINGS.
Regards
I found the U8N for$1299 in a 75 inch .
WOOOOOO 😊
If go 75 inch get u7n if is 65in u8n maybe better if like gaming u8n but if is for watch tv save money wt big screen u7n
I bought a 65U7NQ for 500 euros in europe 🎉❤
Only downside I would say to the u8n is the fact that Hisense gimped the amount of dimming zones on the 85 in which has far less than the 65 in which doesn't make any sense
Its fine buddy. The 85” x95L 2023 only has like 700 something local dimming zone. Who cares.
Once u have more zones, larger screen it needs better processing. Kinda like Once getting SUV 🚙 putting larger engine still require Break system, larger wheels all that. So they are doig it for best over all image. Prob intentional.
I'll pick either one they are all the same
He's ok. The guy's growing on me 😅
u7n vs qm7
Samsung q90d vs hisense u8n?!!!
Absolutely U8n. I have seen S95D 75” 85” in bestbuy. It looks GREAT, but just the 2022 U8H already look like 2024 QN90D. Because since 2022 QN95B, Samsung NO longer selling their QN95 models in USA/Canada, but only in Asia/EU. Since yearly the U8 compete with the QN95 level …u know what I am saying. Its an easy choice. 😊

It's really about the immersion factor. They are not close in size and ask good as the U8N it cannot overcome the size and excellent picture quality of the U7N. If you have the space and the want then grab the 100.

I don't even watch HDR much... and 95% of your video is about HDR. I just want a good TV for a bright room cable channel use, UA-cam Premium 1080P Enhanced bitrate, and a fair amount of Netflix and Amazon Prime delivered movies. All with lots of reflections in day which is about half my usage, with nighttime about half. Give more time to SDR in your comparo. Actually I cannot even tell from your comparo whether U8N is better than U7N for SDR. I ordered U8N mostly b/c it apparently has better reflection handling for my bright room daytime usage. The extra $200 for U8N vs. U7N 65" really is nothing over several years of daily use.... like two dimes a day over three years. Replacing a 2016 Samsung KS8000 which now has a 2" vertical brownish band a little off center, and two very bright 5" streaks of curved light in the bottom 20% of the screen near the center.
I appreciate your comment my friend. HDR or not the TV'S perform the same which is why I don't film in HDR. The U8N is an excellent choice. Enjoy and thank you for watching
