BJ's Wholesale Members: Hisense H8F 4K HDR Android Smart TV: 65" $520 or 55" EXPIRED

14% 1-star...with many of those reviews directly from damaged screens which is always shipping related and shouldn't be factored into a products review. Just because a box "shows no damage" doesn't mean it wasn't dropped flat so no visible damage, but surely a huge jolt to the internally packed TV. Those people don't know how packages are handled in real life - very naive. Under no condition will a TV be packed with a cracked screen dude to poor quality control - that's abysmally stupid to think.

The other technical reviews are a mixed bag. "TV isn't really 240hz"... no shit dude...lol. "No Amazon Prime app"... yes because the version of Android TV shipped with the TV doesn't have Prime, because Amazon and Google refused to play nice (Google is Android TV). BUT if they had bothered to update the software they would have found out the current version does have Prime available...

...and ultimately that's the issue with a lot of the other 1-star reviews. They are made from folks who did NOT update the TVs firmware. They stand there wishing Hisense had a fix and never update the firmware...lol.

That makes of the last of those reviews a mix of general folks who just had bad luck (every TV even LG OLEDs get 1-star reviews) and folks who forget they bought a budget TV.

This TV is the best value currently on the market - bottom line.

I own one. Panel response is slow- it's the slowest one Rtings has tested currently. You will see motion trails especially in gaming and action scenes. Someone will scream about how my settings must be wrong as usual, but this is a limitation of the panel and Hisense even confirmed this to me personally when I contacted them. So it is.

OS is very laggy and needs rebooted often or else it will hang up and crash. Android is way too demanding for the processor on this TV. Wifi is buggy, I recommend using wired ethernet.

Lots of bugs with audio. I quit trying to use external speakers. Hisense has been saying they are "aware" but no updates ever issued.

HDR bugs through HDMI ports. External devices don't always display the correct colorspace, again a confirmed bug many are experiencing, but no fix. Youtube HDR doesn't work through some external devices like the Firestick currently, often takes multiple switches to get my PC recognized properly. Sometimes only a restart fixes it.

Bug with local dimming turns it back on while saying it's off. Confirmed by Rtings.

Overall, the best thing I can say is the TV has very nice color, but a slow response panel and many bugs holds it back. If the panel response isn't an issue, and they actually fixed the bugs, it could be good value. I'm not very happy with my purchase at the moment. It will depend largely on your planned usage.
