    Where I live, 4k broadcasts are in trial. Having the 3.0 4k tuner was a huge reason to buy ($200ish 3.0 tuners are available separately). I am also impressed with my 65U8H audio quality. I have a Jamo S809 5.2.2 paired with a 2700H Denon hooked up to my 55U8G in my game room. The 65U8H doesn't "require" a soundbar or AVR like every single other TV I have owned over the last 50 years. Hisense price to performance casts shade on other TV brands as well. I bought one of the last 32" CRT 480i TVs for my parents many (many) years ago. They enjoyed the picture and whatever noise came out of the TV was just fine. Going back 64 years, I remember watching The Mickey Mouse Club on TV. Over the decades, RCA, Sony, LG, Samsung and Toshiba entered our homes and now finally Hisense. I think Hisense is worth a look when shopping for a new TV. Your review of the U8G series prompted my first and second look at Hisense.

I watch most of these, and the level of detail and ACTUAL comparison you did was amazing and I think sets you apart from the other reviewers. Most just say “more bright more better” which isn’t always right.

I won't go into dealing with Hisense customer service on your forum. I chose to replace the Hisense with the TCL 75" Roku 75R655 2022 model. I love this TV albeit for jumping back and forth to adjust the picture nearly to my liking.

    I really appreciated this video. If there was a Google TV version of the TCL that would be an absolute no-brainer for me. I've run into so many frustrations with Roku that I don't think I can ever go back. Most notably, there isn't any formal Twitch integration (at least not within the last 6 months or so that I tried) and screen mirroring has been super hit or miss from my Android phone. I'm glad to hear the Hisense is so close. We added blackout curtains to our living room because our current Sceptre tv had such little brightness, so maybe we can finally let the sun in if we upgrade!

    I have had TCL tv's for the last several years. I bought the 75 inch, r635 in 2020 and am now having black screen issues. Unfortunately, I did not have an extended warranty and the TCL and Roku customer support was useless. After looking into this there are many complaints about the black screen issue with the TCL''s. I thought maybe I just got a bad one, but I had a 32-inch TCL do the same exact thing. I purchased the Hisense U8H, and it will arrive a day after Christmas. I advise everyone who buys a TCL or even the Hisense to get the extended warranty. I have never gotten an extended warranty in the past but with TV's I will never make that mistake again

    Firstly, Caleb I love your videos. I live in South Africa and actually purchased the Hisense U8H but was so disappointed in it I returned it 24 hour later. I'm pretty confident that the model we get in South Africa apart from not running Google TV (it runs VIDAA) does not use the same hardware. The unit I had had terrible "backlight bleed" on the left side of the screen as well as the right hand side corners. This was not what I was expecting from a mini-led TV. My decision to return the TV was ultimately based on the fact that I would not be able to live with this issue (this TV is not exactly a budget TV here in South Africa). I then went for a LG CS OLED. The CS model here in South Africa is an update on last years C1 as the C2 in South Africa apart from being very scarce is super expensive. For customers here in South Africa that are particular about picture quality we have to stick to the brands like Samsung and LG as the "budget" brands Hisense and TCL are not the same hardware that you guys get in North America.

    I wish you can do a follow up on issues of these TVs regarding serious problems. All these TVs come with great features and whatnot but the longevity of these TVs is needed IMO. E.G is it worth it to by a cheaper TV but it won't last longer than five years than a more expensive TV that will last 10plus.

    Good video. I would like to see a straight up TV OS comparison. Samsung Tizen 🤮 , LG webOS, Roku, Google, vidaa and so on. Not focusing on TV performance and simply OS. so many people add devices like a Roku or Apple TV but showing what's built in would be educational. I personally was hoping when manufacturers added filmmaker mode it would eliminate a lot of picture setting adjustments but it doesn't seem to be the case.

I think I made a great choice for the money I spent just wish it had the 3.0 tunner but I upgrading from 1080p so no more waiting the lg just won’t die. So putting it in another room where I won’t be using to much. I also been using Apple TV since it came out since the old tv is dumb. This is smart and I think Roku will be just fine.

    Others may have noted this before but for me if you are going to do a side by side comparison of an image you should do a side by side of the exact same section of the image and not a split screen of the full image with some of it on one tv and the other half of the image on the other tv. It leaves me having to take your word for it for example when on the left you show the “shimmer” on the feathers of the bird for Hisense but say that’s not the case on TCL but are showing an completely different half of the image, a half that in most cases has far more light and less contrast. Best if you compare apples to apples where you can. Just say’n.

    @@Static_Age Thank you for answering about the "Shimmering" problem with HDR real-world content. I'm also wondering what your thoughts are about watching SDR content and the way it is "upscaled." I'm asking for several different reasons: First, I have many SDR 1080p Blu-ray movies. How would you rate the "upscaling" for this scenario? Second, I watch Comcast cable TV a lot, too. This is broadcast in either 720p or 1080i on most channels. How do you think this is "upscaled"? Third, I watch a lot of DVD movies in 480i resolution and there are also Comcast TV channels in 480i. For example, all the Star Trek Deep Space Nine, Star Trek Voyager, and so many other TV programs are only on DVD. How do these end up looking when "upscaled" on this Hisense U8H? Finally, there are some models of TV sets when one size such as a 65" is different than a 75" TV. For example, the 65" TV that most places reviewed may have a problem that the 75" TV that released later did not have. That is only a possibility, but that is why I'm asking if you know of anything like that?

    Great comparison! Thanks so much Caleb! You are so incredibly knowledgeable I’m usually overwhelmed with details of technology. But I have a question: When you’re discussing the sound quality of these two and you say the Hisense blows the pants off the TCL, are you referring to their unique built-in speakers??? I have what I deem to be a magnificent HT 7.2.6 system with a pretty decent Vizio 65MQ8-H1. I love Dolby Vision and Atmos, so I’m looking to go bigger size tv, but want “best” picture quality I can get on a budget, so 75” is probably it for me. Thanks again and hope you have great ending to ‘22!😊

    TV sound quality will always be about their built-in speakers. It shouldn't be a decision factor for those of us that use external speakers.

    Appreciate your intuitive overview. Yet...as a senior buyer..you have to understand you have people (A Navy veteran,here) who have macular degeneration or other vision issues. Consequently, all we want is a non tech set that works. Detail can be a moot point sometimes on our wish list. A big enough screen to sit far away and still enjoy a series or a movie. Why don't companies have labels that state...best or good for the elderly or compromised. Better design for the aging population is always appreciated. Thanks for your channel's intent.

    Unfortunately, the TCL 655 is not available in Canada yet, only the 635 or 646 from what I can see. So because of that, might have to default to U8H just due to availability.

    I literally had both of these TVs, but the 2020 models. And they both had issues initially. I agree with the comparison with her almost identical where hisense wins out for me, what is the customer service. At the end of the day they replaced my broken unit with a brand new television. Where is TCL kept giving me refurbished b Units that had all kind of issues. So unless you’re buying an extended warranty through the consumer, that I would suggest Hisense over TCL.

  • @jfralick100

    I think one important comparison missed is the warranty that comes standard on these tvs. The U8H comes with a 2 year warranty where the TCL only has a 1 year. With these tvs being so close in comparison and considering the population buying these tvs I feel this is an important factor. Also another important factor is the anti-reflective coating on the TCL is horrid. Leaves these huge rainbow effects across the screen that I noticed right a way. More nit picking: the remote on the u8h is better, it glows in the dark and has a find my remote feature (especially important with how small both remotes are) Finally the packaging on the u8h was far superior. I had both TV's delivered by Amazon and the TCL came defective twice first 3 burnt mini LEDs not a huge deal, second screen was totally black. The foam protecting the u8h was just better.

    Great comparison, and I appreciate your personal opinion, also. I'm probably more like your grandparents, but I can also hack into TCL and program it, if needed. Despite tech ability, I'm a Toyota Camry type of buyer, so I want quality that is longer lasting. I know you can't compare longevity of new TVs, but my past experience has been that Hisense does not last as long as TCL. Opinions?

    Correct . These are basically full steam ahead tvs that don’t last long. (Mileage may very of course) These tvs use cheaper components and on average last 2-5 years . Samsung and LG are better . They are better built and have better baseline quality. Those will last 7-10’+ years .

    I know that you have said that you are only going to review or do comparisons on tv's that are available in the USA ruling out brands like Panasonic and Phillips. That is rather unfortunate in that I consider you Caleb to be the best that I have seen here on KZread. It also surprises me somewhat that the USA doesn't have practically everything under the sun in regards to consumer products. I live in Vancouver Canada and we aren't nearly as big of a market as cities like New York and LA and we get those brands. I don't care so much about Phillips but Panasonic is a brand that I have seen and believe to be a premium brand that competes very favourably with brands like Sony,Samsung,LG,and others.. Keep up the great work that you do Caleb. I very much enjoy your informative channel.

    Another great review as usual. I have the 75" Hisense U8H and just recently got a 83" LG C2 OLED. One is ROKU based and the LG is the other format. I must say, it seems to me that for the most part, watching TV, your picture quality depends on the quality of the signal that you can get. Either way, they are both stunning and I prefer the ROKU remote.

    I have the u8h in a 75. Gaming looks insane. So bright and smooth. My hdr looks great! I haven't seen any shimmer. The only thing I will say about the hisense is that its processing is it's weak spot. I watch a lot of sdr content and it's just not as buttoned up as I would like. Being a 75 inch when I am 8ft plus away from it it's good. But when I walk up closer it's like yeaaa... lol. But I think I'll keep it. I'm coming from a 10yr old 60 inch sharp so you can imagine the difference 😁

    I usually use MKV to put my DVDs and Blu-ray on a memory card, and then watch them on my computer with an HDMI cable connected to the TV. If I did that with this Hinsense U8H, would there be high-quality video? Or would there be problems with "processing"?

    @@michaelzoran Depends on what mode you have the TV set to. Nowadays for most TVs they'll adjust image quality and processing based on what hdmi input device setting you have it set to. Setting the HDMI input your PC is connected to to Game Console and Blu ray player tend to get the best color and image processing turned on. Also you could just put the files on a USB flashdrive and connect it to the TV directly since just about every Smart TV nowadays will play MKV files.
