So I tried to price match the tcl series 6 with Best Buy via chat. They wouldn't because it is for prime members. Any luck getting around that?? Different chatter? I store?

That's like asking if mitubushi cars are as nice as s classes lol....Sony and Samsung over this any day. You get what you pay for, just depends on the budget and what you're looking to spend on it.
Consumer reports data actually shows that TVs in the same price band have very similar reliability. Meaning if you buy an $800 Hisense vs an $800 Samsung (or whatever brand) the reliability is pretty much the same.

Your analogy of stepping up to an S class is true. If you bought this tv compared to a $2000 Samsung, the Samsung would likely last longer. But if you bought this tv compared to a $500 Samsung, the Hisense would likely last longer.

It's all about the price point, not brand necessarily.

Is the Sony 55" A80j OLED a better buy at $1000 compared to this set at $800?
Comes down to size vs PQ and I would add if you have ANY concern with burn in.

Yes, Oled has the best PQ but that doesn't mean everything else is bad.

I recently set this up and for the money it produces a pretty good PQ and you have ZERO concern with burn in so you save another $400+ cost if you believe you need a warranty for that.

I have two of these. They are pretty great. I'd read about issues, but neither of mine have them. Snappy to me. Great picture. The only complaint my wife has is that it's so ridiculously bright that it is too much for her. The picture to me is amazing. My only critique, it's a bit thicker. But I don't mind it one bit. Great set!!

I have this TV. The picture is great. The Google voice features worked perfect when I first got it but an update kind of broke it. You can do voice searches but asking it to turn on and off or change the volume doesn't work anymore. I got it on sale at PC Richard last year
That was an issue with the far field mic that was fixed with firmware update M0422. You might want to check your firmware level & see if you can update it.

M0422 also introduced an issue with audio dropouts to external speakers though, so FYI

Not true? It was reviewed May 2021, so it's more like one year old

You are confusing it with 9g. This is newer.

I have had a u8g for only a few days, and it's amazing looking with 4k hdr content for a led tv but not so great upscaling everything else, so just hours ago when I saw that secondipity had the 65" sony a80j oled refurb for $950 I bought one.

In sdr and upscaling lesser hd there is a lot of picture flaws with the hisense like color banding and motion blur and some motion stutter or judder issues and lack of sharpness and flatness to the image, it's just not great.

This tv is all about great 4k hdr, but everything else seems lacking. If most of the content out there were 4k it would be a better tv. Even adding an nvidia shield pro didn't fix the issues I had with PQ of lower res content.

Btw it's so bright that at night I ran it at like 27 to 33 % backlight, daytime maybe 80% max, 100% is blinding burn your eyeballs and increases blooming more than needed.

The 2.1 hdmi ports overdrive bright whites where you lose detail too, if you don't want whites blown out you need to use the 2,0 hdmi ports for input.

Just bought the 65" u7g for $700. FYI wire cutter, digital trends and several other sites recommend the u7g effectively OVER the u8g because the u8g is let down by its software and higher brightness (crushing blacks && more blooming issues). Feel free to heck out FOMO or QuantumTV YouTube channels for breakdowns on what I'm talking about or the afore mentioned sites.
If you want to learn anything about TVs do NOT EVER watch QuantumTV

In addition to the guy being a complete moron he is racist bigot that makes your die hard Trump fans look like school children

HDTVTest is the gold standard for TV reviews, then I would check forums for TVs maybe Reddit last.

At $800, this is not a good price for a TV unless you are using it as a side or extra TV.

Bough a HiSense 65" 1.5 years ago for a side room and it was junk, i would never want to watch regular TV on it.

Spend the extra $400-450 and buy the LG C1 65" or wait on a deal for the 65" A80J

Yeah that's just annoying. I mean I can return it for free and re order it and save 170$ in the process. Won't be doing it, but I feel they should be matching within the return window.
You can always give a try. I was able to do price match few times, may be depends on agent

Hmmm. Wondering if this would be a good side tv in a covered porch area that is screened off. Any opinions? Anyone have it outside??
