Hisense U8QG - 1

Hisense U8QG– $697

Incredible brightness, insane value. That pretty much sums up the Hisense U8QG.

If you’ve been waiting for a real TV upgrade that doesn’t cost more than your entire home theater setup, the Hisense U8QG is finally the one to grab. The U8QG is back on sale following Black Friday; most sizes are more expensive now, but not by much. Except for the 65″, which is $50 cheaper than it was during Black Friday. And at $949, it’s a really good option.

Every size of the U8QG is currently discounted:

  • 55″ – $727 (reg. $997)
  • 65″ – $949 (reg. $1,298)
  • 75″ – $1,413 (reg. $1,499)
  • 85″ – $1,997 (reg. $2,497)
  • 100″ – $3,997 (reg. $4,999)

The Hisense U8QG also made our Best TVs 2025 list, making it a really worthy buy at this price.

The U8QG doesn’t mess around. It delivers the kind of specs that used to be reserved for $1,500-plus TVs. We’re talking a blisteringly bright mini-LED panel with thousands of local dimming zones, up to 5,000 nits of peak brightness, and contrast that absolutely pops. HDR content looks alive, colors have that quantum-dot vibrancy Hisense is known for, and it handles both dark and bright scenes with real finesse.

For gamers, this thing is stacked. You’re getting full HDMI 2.1 support, 4K at up to 165 Hz, variable refresh rate, and even USB-C display input — which makes it perfect for plugging in a laptop or handheld gaming device. Google TV runs buttery smooth, so streaming apps and recommendations are right where you want them.

At under $800, the U8QG makes you question why you’d pay more. It’s basically flagship performance for mid-range money. The only trade-offs? Viewing angles aren’t OLED-wide, and you might notice a bit of blooming around bright highlights — but that’s nitpicking at this price.
