75" Hisense U6G Quantum ULED 4K Smart Android TV + $100 Select Retailer GC Expired

I have both 75" versions of this TV.

I bought the newer version first, and mounted it in a game room that always has daylight or lights on when watching. The picture is amazing, and I had no idea it was IPS/ADS until I read all the online debates. So I shut off the lights and ran tests in the dark. In that environment, blacks are very dark on most YouTube test videos because of the local dimming, but dark real content (Expanse, Witcher, etc.) reveals that the blacks aren't inky, and the movie bars are visible.

We wanted another 75 for our movie room, which is almost always dark when we're watching TV, so I looked for, and found, and original VA version. That picture is also amazing, and has inky blacks when the lights are off, with movie bars that disappear.

(I also verified the panel types with pixel pictures.)

For most content, the difference in the blacks between the two isn't noticeable, especially during the day or with lights on. As expected, the original VA panel is better if viewing dark content from a dark room, and the newer IPS/ADS version has slightly better viewing angles.

I do have different backlight levels set: on the newer ADS version I have backlight at 12 (like Rtings.com), and on the original VA version I have backlight set to 37 (like CR), both with auto-dim enabled.

Settings on these TVs have to be tuned to get a great picture; the defaults aren't good. Rtings.com has good suggestions that work for both versions.

The 2 boxes they came in look identical. The only difference on the outside is the serial number sticker - no manufacture date or version info. The backs of the 2 TVs look completely different, but the boxes need to be opened to see them. There are pictures posted on Best Buy (reviews), along with details.

Previous model. NOT worth saving 90 bucks.

Note that the 75" model has come in both VA and IPS version. The assumption is that most of the recent ones are IPS. The rtings rating is for a VA 65" so is not completely valid for a IPS 75".

Nevertheless, for a 75" with local dimming, this is about the cheapest you will find.
