AVForums | Hisense U8N TV Review: The BEST Hisense Mini LED TV? @avforums | Uploaded 3 weeks ago | Updated 3 days ago
We review the latest flagship ULED TV from Hisense, the U8N. Is this the best Mini LED TV Hisense has made? AVForums Editor Phil Hinton gives you the full details in our video review and read the full written review - https://www.avforums.com/reviews/hisense-u8n-65u8nqtuk-4k-uled-review.21915/
The Hisense U8N is the best mini LED TV we have seen from the company with a continued improvement in picture quality since last years model. We noted improved HDR10 tone mapping with content up to 1000 nits with no obvious signs of clipping or PQ EOTF over brightening and it now feels like a more significantly polished product.
Its not perfect as we still get the drawbacks of LCD technology with some instances of clouding and dirty screen effect, and blacks are not entirely well controlled throughout. This is more noticeable in dark viewing conditions so, when used in a brightly lit room, many of these negatives are well mitigated in most instances.
Out of the box, in Filmmaker Mode, we found that colour accuracy with SDR and HDR is very good with excellent gradational performance, natural-looking colours and lifelike skin tones. Images are also bright enough for this TV to excel in a well-lit living room environment.
Gaming is also strong with two HDMI 2.1 (48Gbps) ports supporting 4K/144Hz for PC gaming, 4K/120Hz gaming in Dolby Vision thanks to the use of the new Pentonic SOC, a games menu bar and impressive input lag. The U8N may even make our round up of Best Gaming TVs for 2024.
Overall, the Hisense U8N makes a compelling case for the mass market consumer looking for a well-rounded bright room TV and it comes recommended.
