Quote from DoctorLecter :
I purchased 3 Hisense 55 inchers from a $200 deal about 5 years ago. One completely died 6 months ago. One has a steady slight flicker (watchable) for the last 3 months and and the 3rd is still working just fine. I guess unrelated to this thread but, Hisense is no longer a brand I'm a fan of.
Learn to replace the capacitors.

No brand is immune to capacitor failure, as they're literally sacrificial items, much like a battery. And it's not just TVs; capacitors are found in everything (also the number one failure of HVAC compressor systems and just as easy to replace).

A cheap soldering iron kit with everything you need is $10.

A bulk pack of 500 capacitors that span the range of most consumer products is $8 (obviously check if it has the exact one you need).

And the best part? Diagnosing capacitor failure typically requires no electrical circuit knowledge, because they usually swell or leak when they go bad.

Any YouTube videos that would be good to learn this?

I learned before YouTube existed, so I wouldn't know where to start from scratch.

Searching "TV capacitor replacement" will probably show tons of results. Avoid any where they spend any amount of time on their own face or are attempting to hold the camera while doing the job.

My instinct also tells me to avoid channels like iFixIt, where they're just trying to sell you junk instead of teaching anything.

It's not a hard process and it's only been made easier by the fact that you don't (or can't) run to Fry's or Radio Shack when you need something they probably had to special order anyway.

If I had to recommend a style of channel to aim for, it would be bigclive. He's a Scottish dude that disassembles things to diagram their circuitry and had a brief period where he tried to carbonate various liquids in a Soda Stream.

Last point: Flux is cheap, so always use it.

My 65 inch Hisense TV died with software update issue after 3 years, no warranty no support, just thrown in Garbage TV.

I will stay away from this Brand

I just had a mid range Sony blow after 2 years. On top of a Samsung and 3 LGs in the last 7 years.

I have 3 Hisense tvs, and only one had a problem, but was fixed with a 10 cent capacitor

TVs are dispoable these days.

TVs have always been designed to be disposable.

If you grew up with a traditional TV that had a tube or even the larger projection models, they didn't last any longer than an LCD or even a plasma.

But even before that, there was an entire era where TVs were just as much furniture pieces as they were appliances. Those went out of date faster than the TV could break.

For the sake of information, this is a mid-range (U6) 2022 model (H). The quality is pretty good and ymmv for longevity. Whether you encounter general issues or known storage/chip problems after a few years is a crapshoot.
I'll also echo what others have said about the Hisense interface being sloooow. Even in our newer and higher tier U8K it's painful using the home screen menus but generally better once you're in an app. Definitely use an external streaming box, even a plug-in Chromecast/Google TV, if you value responsiveness.

If the big sell of this TV is that it's cheap, be aware that Costco has a TCL 58" for $259 right now and bonus if you buy 2 you get $100 off or 3 and get $200 or 4 and get $300 off.

FWIW... that TCL S470G series lacks local dimming, is not QLED... has flat/dull colors, and is very dim (200 nits peak brightness).

I don't know how this compares to the R6 version at Walmart aside from Fire vs Roku but the R6 is $238.
I was wondering too. Daughter's TCL 55" from Walmart BF deal this past BF died. TCL warranty says they do not have any more to replace the dead one and will send money. Looking for a TV and now daughter does not want TCL as it was our first one.

This one or the Wally Mart Hisense Roku version?

FWIW I went with Roku for cheaper. Win win in my opinion. Better OS and less money.

I got the 65" hisense Qled fire tv for $330 from costco [costco.com] (3 year warranty) earlier this year being fully aware of the negative comments about hisense. I was also a roku fan previously but I am liking fire tv better particularly due to apps like nova video player (excellent for network), smart tube (youtube without commercials), and downloader (download any app).
It is big and bright, great in a bright room, excellent color and viewing angle, and plays well with my denon surround receiver.
If it lasts 3 years, cool... 65" OLED's will probably be sub $500 by then anyway.
I like it much better than my 50" tcl roku tv which has crap viewing angle and a wonky wifi adapter.

I got one of those for my daughter and it is still working well and she uses it often.
