Hisense 85" Class U6 Series Mini-LED 4K UHD Smart Fire TV (85U65QF, 2025 Model) - QLED, Native 144Hz, HDR10+, Dolby Vision IQ, Dolby Atmos, Game Mode Pro, ALLM, Alexa Built in, Black

I was not sure what to expect as I was coming from an older Hisense that was more expensive than this by a lot, but seems newer technology like mini-led in this, makes it better for much less. So even replacing an older higher end model worked out fine. I looked this up and most reviews claimed it was the best higher end "entry level" model and that is what it seems to be. Has some great features not found at this price point on other models and the picture looks great. My setup uses Dolby Vision and this worked right away. One thing to keep in mind when connecting devices is only 2 of the 4 HDMI ports are 2.1 144hz and all that, so make sure to use the right ones for the right devices or could miss out on some settings. The picture looks nice to me for a $500 TV, really nice especially if you go on YouTube and watch the 4k/8k HDR clips. The sound is also very nice "for a TV" so even if you always use a sound bar, you might be able to skip using it sometimes as the TV does sound OK with the little subwoofer on the back. FWIW yes the sound bar setup does sound better, just the TV is good enough you might not need it all the time. This is a FireTV TV so you need to connect to an Amazon account "if" you want to do some things or use the FireTV stuff. You CAN use it right out of the box not connected to internet and everything does work. I connected it to Amazon and its actually pretty snappy for a TV and works good enough. Its not like my other TV where everything takes 10-15 seconds to come up and things are so slow, this is very snappy actually usable unlike a lot of TV's.

I love this TV because it's good at being a TV. The picture is great with no ghosting and works great with my PS5, the Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) is nice feature with the high refresh rate. The sound is pretty nice and clean with a surprising amount of bass. I don't bother with the internet functions, because I just use my PS5 if I want to watch movie or streaming apps. Bonus points for not being enshittified by allowing me to update my TV without locking me out, and forcing to me create an account and give payment info. That last one is a shot at RokuTV. Screw that company.

don't know what it is. I am the only totally blind person living in my house. Yet I'm always the one wanting to buy new TV's! In this case, I wanted to buy it because it had better support for Dolby Atmos than our previous TV. I had a tax refund check coming, so I thought: Why not? First of all, the TV was delivered promptly. It was no problem mounting it, and the Fire TV ecosystem allowed for incredibly easy setup. I'm so glad I bought this TV! The built-in audio actually sounds decent, especially for TV speakers. But the real difference showed up when we connected the TV to our surround sound system. Holy Wow! Finally, true Atmos support! My wife and son really love the picture quality. Even though the resolution is the same as previous TV's we've owned, the brightness and contrast are far superior, and the motion is buttery smooth. Bottom line: We all love it for different reasons, and we are all happy to have upgraded from our previous television.

I was moving up from a 55" to 65" and the specs and price were the deciding factors. This Hisense is replacing a year old Samsung and I can see no discernable visual difference when placed side by side. BUT the sound! This TV's speaker system, with its built-in subwoofer & equalizer, totally blows away the sound of both our tinny, thin sounding Samsungs and a Sony. No comparison. The TV will get hooked up to a Bose/Klipsch/Yamaha surround system so I won't be using the great sound Hisense has put in this TV. If you need a quality, feature filled TV with excellent built-in sound quality, and don't use a sound bar or sound system, this is the TV for you. Seriously, as a standalone, I can't get over how great it sounds. If picture quality, specs, and a great price are your focus, Hisense should be at the top of your list. UPDATE: I bought this TV expecting the headphone jack to function. It does NOT. Too much hassle to try and return a 65" TV so I will have to live without using headphones. Beware...

Iv had this now a few months. Beautiful picture. Colors really pop. The built in subwoofer is a bit much for an Apt..but you can turn it off in settings. Still great sound. As said in other reviews sideview is a bit diluted. But not a deal breaker. I'd buy again.

Looks great, even sounds decent. Just caution about having lights or a window directly behind you, I need to get some curtains because even with blinds closed there is a bit of glare visible. I won't dock it a star for my poor setup though, the picture is fantastic at night. I was expecting to hate built in speakers, but honestly they're way better than I expected, I waited a while before spending on dedicated speakers. Obviously built in doesn't sound fantastic but you can enjoy movies on it. As with all TVs, you'll have to look up the best settings because I think I had to change some things to remove gross motion smoothing, and maybe something with the audio as well but I don't remember what.

Tv is wonderful. Beautiful picture. The volume is wild it gets so loud . I don’t have to turn it up past 17-20 and it goes up to 80 something or higher lol. Great tv for the price . Highly recommend!! My camera quality doesn’t do justice because I am using a iPhone 13 lol. we have the 75 the pictures make it look smaller but it’s huge in person. Not sure why when it’s hung up it also looks smaller than when standing on its legs. Great tv.i actually LOvE this more than our Samsung tv!!

This review is based on my initial impressions of the TV, which got excellent reviews at PC Mag. Here are my first thoughts: PLUS: - The picture is absolutely gorgeous: bright, vivid, and clear. I'm very impressed. This replaces a 15+ year old TV and the improvement in technology is stunning - The initial set up went quite smoothly -- I used the iOS app on my cell phone and had everything up and going within 10 minutes CON: - I am hugely disappointed in Fire TV OS and _really_ wish now that I had ordered a TV with Apple Air Play instead. The reason is that getting apps to download and install has been literally hours of endless frustration. Some of them, like the YouTube app, simple won't install for reasons that defy logic. And, yes, I've tried every one of the general recommendations for trying to fix this including cold restart, resetting the network connection, running network speed tests, using a 5.0GHz WIFI connection and then back to the 2.4GHz connection, making sure that the OS is up to date, checking that the app is compatible with the OS... Absolutely nothing works. In the end, I dug up an old Apple TV 4K device and plugged that it, which allows me to stream from a laptop or an iPhone. This works very well and so I am planning to keep the TV. I have a bit of buyer's regret with the one, but the fact that I have it in hand, the picture is great, and I've kludged a fix is enough of a reason to keep it. I'm optimistic that we'll enjoy this for many years. It just irritates me to spend hundreds of dollars on tech that only partially works. For anyone thinking about this particular model, you might want to check online forums and posts to see how prevalent the problem with app downloading and installing might be before pulling the trigger. My experience is an "n of one". YMMV. Good luck!
