I grabbed a 55" U8K from Best Buy and I'm not disappointed. The sound on it is incredible for a TV and the picture is as nice as my Samsung QN90B. It's not perfect but for watching streaming content it looks pretty damn good.
Just FYI, these TVs do not get along with the Peacock app. Causes it to go into a never ending restart loop. Once I and many others, Uninstalled Peacock, it stopped happening.
We bought a 65" U7G february 2022 and started having issues with it a couple months ago. buyers beware. It restarts apps and power cycles. have to restart tv to get it to work normal for a few days

It might be a longshot but another poster said removing the Peacock app fixed this problem for them

Per Hisense support on Reddit, a fix for this reboot cycle issue has been recently released via update N0810 to G series (2021) tvs. Not sure if a similar fix has been released for newer TVs, though if not imagine it'll shortly follow.
Seems Hisense will update their firmware a occasionally (2-3 per year) to add features, though will sometimes introduce new bugs. These bugs have been fixed by subsequent updates, though normally need to live with it for 3-4 months. At least that has been my experience with my 65U8G tv. I would buy again given the panel is excellent for the price and the bugs are annoying but not a deal breaker for me. Would only recommend purchasing on sale at a discount.
Its alright, Chinese TV doesnt have the best movement processing. If you want Tvs for Sports you'd go w/ Sony, LG, Panasonic, or even Samsung models (terrible colors & no DV tho). The selling point for Chinese TVs is that they have really nice backlighting tech for really cheap, Chinese MiniLEDs right now prioritize super high brightness and game mode features (Things like 144hz refresh rate). The colors on them typically arent great until you calibrate them but because they're extremely bright they can respond really well to color calibration. I think theyre incredible value still even if the rest of the processing is kinda iffy.
