The Hisense U8K is an excellent TV overall. It's extremely bright in both HDR and SDR and has fantastic reflection handling, so it's stellar in any bright room setting. Its contrast and black uniformity are superb, so it also looks amazing in dark rooms, and highlights pop amazingly well when watching HDR movies and games. Overall, it has very good image processing and supports advanced audio and video formats, making it a great choice for a home entertainment TV. It's great as a gaming TV due to its amazing picture quality, superbly low input lag, and good response time. Unfortunately, its viewing angle is inadequate, so it's not a great TV for any wide seating arrangement, like when watching TV shows or sports with friends.
PROS
Fantastic contrast results in deep blacks in a dark room.
Exceptionally bright in both SDR and HDR.
Fantastic reflection handling.
CONS
Image degrades when viewed from the side.
It's a bit buggy at times.

Best buy also has the newest u8q (25 model) but it's over double the price.

This link is for a u8N. U8N is the 2024 model, u8K is the 2023 model. I got the 85" u8N from best buy

Yeah the 100" never got a US release in the N model. There is the 2023 u8k or now the 2025 u8q for 5k
AFAIK the QM8 85 inch is $2k and 98 inch is sold out.

The 2023 QM8 and U8K are nearly identical. The Hisense edges out in some cases, the QM8 edges out in others. I think I'd give the edge to the Hisense overall but, for all intents and purposes, they were interchangeable and you should buy whatever is cheaper.
The U8N didn't get a US release. The 2024 QM8 was significantly better than the U8K. The 2024 QM7 was on par with the U8K.
I bought the 85" 2023 QM8 because it was $300 cheaper than the U8K. I bought the 98" 2024 QM8 when it dropped to 3k last year. I've been happy with both.
Honestly, you can't go wrong with any of these sets. The U8K is still a fantastic set and you won't be unhappy with it, especially at this price.
But Best Buy in my area has open box 2024 98" QM7's in good condition for $1800. That would be REALLY tempting over this.
Best buy near me has a OB 98 QM7 for $1600 and they'll even throw in free delivery. Tempting. Only thing holding me back is I'm not sure I trust them to box it up and deliver it with care.
Anyone have experience getting a large open box TV from Best Buy?
