Not sure where you are looking. I wanted this tv, my last TV was a tcl series 6 but 2 months ago when I started doing research most things pointed to the u8k being better. I went and checked them out at best buy too and found the u8k to be better so I bought thar. Then about a month ago Rtings which is one if if not the most respected testing sites found thar the u8k is better. All the reviewers I seen either had them neck and neck or the u8k better. Plus the u8k is built more for people who like a total experience. U8K not only has the better speaker system but if one plans to use high-end equipment the tcls earc is only hdmi 2.0 so anything you hook to your receiver is only getting hdmi 2.0, that's a real ball drop. The U8K has a ATSC 3.0 tuner while the QM8 doesn't and the U8K has USB 3.0 while the QM8 doesn't. The only real advantage the QM8 has is its brighter but the U8K is very bright too
Everything I've seen says otherwise. The U8K has Wifi 6e, ATSC 3.0, the new pentonic 700 chip for substantially better upscaling per rtings. The hisense also has higher native and effective contrast, substantially more accurate EOTF tracking, and similar peak brightness. Heck at 65" you're even looking at similar dimming zone counts. At 75" I'd say the TCL has nearly double the dimming zones and keeps a VA panel for better contrast, but at 65" the Hisense is a no brainer over the tcl
This is a really good price for a excellent TV. Personally I'd wait for the U8K to hit $1,000 again but if you need a TV right now you might want to jump on this.

Everything I've seen says that this is better than the hisense in every way including QC

Edited: I had just bought this from Best Buy last week. They were able to refund me the difference. Thanks OP!
