However, I want a better upgrade path and this Hisense model is not designed for true 4K/120Hz with PCs because its MediaTek processor is weak and can't handle 4-4-4 chroma at 4K @ 120HZ. What this means is that if you try to use it with a modern video card that fully supports 4K/120Hz and use those resolutions you'll only get half of the 4K's 2160p vertical resolution (1080p) which results in blurry desktop text at 4K. For the average user though who only wants to watch TV or game, it probably won't be noticeable.
But I'll be getting a RTX 3060Ti card and want that true 3840 × 2160 4K @ 120 Hz. So I'll probably spend the $300-$400 more for the Sony X90J Bravia (which can handle true 4K @120 Hz with PCs) when it's on sale.
It's pretty awesome, but man be prepared to turn the backlight down to 50%…otherwise headaches & eye strain in your future.
In some ways, it's so good that it can make 1080p & 720p content look a little worse…if that makes any sense.
Also have to play with the motion/blur settings a decent amount to avoid ghosting on fast movement, at least on SDR content. There's a secret TCON update for the 65" that helps, but it still needs tweaking.
I'm also waiting on a longer HDMI 2.1 cable to test out XSX/gaming.
