Just bought the C1 last week and absolutely love it so far. Ended up buying it at Costco due to it coming with a free 5 year warranty. The first 2 years are with Costco and the remaining 3 are with Allstate. Typically the additional 3 years cost around $100 but the tv included an $100 rebate that covered the warranty. We also bought our last LG tv at Costco with the 5 year warranty and it stopped working after 5 years and 3 weeks. I swear they just know and send a self destruct signal to the tv.
I have a 15-year-old Sony Bravia. I really don't have a desire to replace it. I watch mostly movies, and it does fine. I'm in my 70's and I bought it for my retirement. Maybe when a really new technology comes out I'll consider something else.
Back in 2019 when I went to buy my tv from Best Buy I wanted a tcl. However the guy that helped me showed me tvs I didn’t even want. He persuaded me to buy something I didn’t want. He right away showed me a Samsung and a Lg. I asked about the tcl and he said they won’t worth the time or money that they were too dark and ugly picture. He was doing everything he could to get me to buy either a Samsung or Lg. In the end I ended up getting a 55 inch LG Nano cell 4K tv. At the time I was happy with it. It was my first 4K TV and thought all 4K tvs were the same. Now 3 years later after research and knowing that all 4K TVs are not the same, I regret buying the tv. The next tv I buy I’m ordering it online and picking it up at the store. That way no one can talk me out of buying the tv I want.
I’ve got my c1 77 inch last I requested the rest of the week off just to enjoy my tv my God that tv picture quality is amazing I love it, n I must of gotten the evo panel cause it’s plenty bright
I've had 3 $279 58" 6 series Hisense & on all, the backlighting goes out within a year or 2. My local WalMart is clearing out their 50" to 65" TV's. All brands less than $400. They are bringing in & setting up the 85 " but make sure you get them calibrated once at home. Makes a huge difference
I just bought a Sony X85K and I love it. Yes the Hisense UH8 is slightly better; but for just me and the wife streaming content it's pretty amazing. Bright and color accurate. When paired with the Govee T2 system, and new sony 3.1 soundbar with sub it's pretty amazing.
Use to sell TVs in college. Definitely ask if they have a normal input signal vs the commercial showcase demo. I often switched our TVs to Directv and people were shocked how different the picture looked from Demos. Also ask to see if they will turn off TVs around the other TVs of the one you are considering. Just seeing one vs a dozen+ in your peripheral makes a huge difference. May save you $1k.
I took a chance on an Insignia 43" 4k on Black Friday. Picture was great but it had so many issues. Constant audio out of synch, HDMI issues, picture with Direct TV receiver kept turning purple and it would hard lock up when connecting bluetooth headphones and Apple+ wouldn't work with the headphones. Returned it for a 50" Pioneer that was marked down to $279. Love it so far.
I think the fast motion quality issues for sports are because best buy is not using a hi definition signal. Our Comcast carrier gave us like 300 stations with both hi definition and low definition channel so we get to see a huge difference in picture quality.
Same in the UK. In our big electronics store Curry's, Sony, Samsung and LG are all at the front and a few Hisense, JVC, Toshiba TVs at the back. The staff try to sell you Samsung TVs more than any of the other brands.
I just walked into BB the other day to check out the Hisense U8H and it was exactly how you described it. Just in the “poor” section of the tv showroom. They even had some non 4k tv show on the screen which made it seem worse. I wanted to compare the U8H and Samsung QN85B but cause BB showed the U8h in such poor conditions I couldn’t make an informed decision. What is your opinion between these two tvs? Love the content keep it up! Thanks.
We bought a new 65 inch Samsung in 2015, not sure of the model but it was heavily pushed by Best Buy as the greatest TV on the market at the time. While the picture is good and the TV still works, it’s had many buggy problems throughout the years. Many apps weren’t supported within a couple of years, it randomly pops up messages, and at times has just gone black for many seconds at a time.
All products on display at Best Buy are placed exactly where the manufacturers pay for them to be placed. There's absolutely nothing random about where anything is placed.
I would like to spread some enlightenment on why lg, sony and samsung have the biggest representation in best buy. Its as simple as they pay the company more money. In my best buy, lg paid 2 million dollars for that lg pad that was shown in the video. Best buy does not even pay for the power bill of that area, that area is connected to a separate power source than the store’s power source. Tcl hisense and vizio just dont pay best buy enough to have that kind of representation.
I rotated around the Samsung series while looking for my tv earlier this year went from a q60 to q70 to q90! Returned all felt like all was over priced! Ended up getting a c1 and I have no regrets!
We have had 3 vizios bought together for different rooms in our house. All 3 ended up with weird problems. Don’t know about samsung but my parents Sony is 5 yrs old and no issues.
Hey sir just came across your site and it has some great insight! Question, what in your opinion is the best low budget tv out now say 65 inch screen? Thanks in advance.
I returned my U8G due to some clouding on the right side of the screen. Other than that it was great. Probably could’ve played the panel lottery and found a clean one but didn’t feel like playing that game. Think I’ll just keep my 900h one more year and see what we get next year. If hisense can give us a dual cell with an acceptable response time and decent input lag, I’ll pick that up for sure.
Just purchased Q60A…85 inches of incredible picture. Obviously tv of this size has some clouding but it does not interfere, not noticeable with movie setting. Great tv great price!
I came from a vizio d50u-d1. After 6 years, some of the backlights started to flicker. I decided to upgrade and try out the LG Qned 80 series 2022 model. I am pretty happy with the outcome.
My Best Buy had Geek squad infomercials playing on the U8G and U7G. Still went for the U8G and I'm very satisfied with the panel. Of course they wouldn't play anything meaningful on a non top tier brand.
I have three tcl's two 65" and one 55" that I bought 3 years ago. One 65" and the 55" the backlight went out. The third tv has a round color distortion. I doubt the next tv will be TCL brand even though the price vs. the time used DID make them worth it.
Hey Robert. I reviewed the A90J. So that can't be fixed. Also, in most cases vivid mode is used, which uses motion processing. To be fair im reviewing the tvs in a as is showroom fashion. The impression basically everyone will get without special settings.
After watching many of your reviews I decided to visit the local Best Buy to see a Hisense U8G in person. My experience was the same as yours; nothing more than the 6 models on display because no one would be forking out an extra 1K for a Sony or a Samsung if they saw the U8G next to them. Super happy with my purchase. Thanks for the hot tips!
The U8G is crazy cheap compared to other brands. But I was not impressed by it's performance. Picture, color contrast, focus/sharpness was no where near as good as the other brands hence the price tag
I went to Best Buy the other day and asked if they had a hisense u7g on display, so I could see it in person. The guy I was speaking to asked the manager of that department and the manager asked me if I saw a review of the tv and if that’s why I was asking about it. He then goes and tells me the tv doesn’t have features that I know it has. Then proceeds to walk over to show me a Sony x90j with a price tag of $2,999 lmao like buddy just need a 55 in for my bedroom
I had my 75U7G delivered yesterday from Best Buy. I set it up last night and got to watch a little bit of content. Spent time this morning adding apps and playing with picture settings. I'm blown away. This is my first 4K TV, but everything is as advertised. Took me a while to figure out how to hook it up to my receiver -- had to do the normal HDMI connection then an optical audio and that got it working. I can tell you I spent probably 4 months looking at everything -- I am not an LG or Samsung fan so didn't spend to much time looking at those, but I did compare picture quality and sure enough -- this U7G beats them all in my opinion. I'm not an expert -- but it works for us. Android is super fast so far too.
I just commented below. I have an a80j 65inch I'm returning. Thinking of going with the 65inch u8g. I'm also thinking of dumping more $ and getting a 77inch oled panel. Does the c1 77in have the Evo panel? Is it brighter than the smaller sizes, is there a big difference with the Evo panels?
I got a 65" Hisense smart TV from Best Buy and returned it in a week. It kept buffering and when you turned it off the next time you used it, you had to reset the internet on it everytime
Man, thanks a lot for this video, I went to Best buy and felt/think exactly as you're describing. I bought a Samsung Crystal UHD AU80000 and I'm not really satisfied with it; it's not bad but, it's not for me; it almost looks like my old 2012 LG, so it didn't ''wowed" me and I'm planning on returning it maybe exchange it for someting better. I also went to a Costco and to a Sam's the same day and didn't find nothing that caught my eye, maybe I'm going on a bad time. But about how different Best Buy is from a far time, it's really disappointing. Thanks for the video.
I'm going to be 100, didn't think I was going to be happy with my TCL R646. I was dead set on returning it back to Best Buy, but for $899 the picture quality cannot be beat and I coming from a Sony 900E. The TV is Freaking awesome, put aside the software glitches you aren't getting a better picture. My opinion
The A6 is the hisense entry level. I have a U6g 50in for a bedroom TV, got it last weekend. Super solid for a bedroom TV imo. I have a 65inch a80j for my livingroom TV, and it's going back for the 65inch u8g. It's $800 cheaper and after picking up the u6g and seeing hisense put quality for a $400 TV I realized I slipped by spending 1800 on my livingroom TV. Going with what you've been recommending all along, u8g
@@riraider123 I ended up just exchanging the a80j for another a80j lol. They're bringing it tomorrow. I just got a bad panel. The bottom right corner was super dark on a light Grey screen. It didn't affect bright scenes at all though. Anyway I decided I had to stick with the a80
I just got an insignia and returned it and regret it BAD it had excellent sound that reminds me of surround sound and a crystal clear picture I got the F20 24” smart version the only one in the store after my 12 year old Sanyo died but I wanted the regular “non smart” model N10 I didn’t see any boxes out and didn’t think to ask someone to check if there was any elsewhere They were out when I went in person but I checked online a few days later one was in stock i bought it so it could be put aside for me to pickup later I returned the F20 no problem went to go pick up the N10 only to find out it wasn’t at the location and the order was canceled last second after driving half an hour so dang disappointed in them those TVs are nice 😔 I’m now stuck with a crappy one from target and want the other one back 😩 I wasn’t cool with the idea having a smart tv I have cable and won’t use the streaming services plus I was afraid it would spy on me I only got that one because I need a tv to sleep and that’s the only one that was available My review of the insignia 24”F20 tv 5 stars Best Buy’s online store advertising for what’s in stock and customer service through the phone which is actually a call center ZERO stars Buy what’s in the store on the shelves or have them deliver don’t trust them to have over the phone or online orders available for pickup from the store 😒
Watching from JAmaica and enjoying. Are you familiar with the 2018 Vizio M 65FO model? Wondering what your thoughts are on it? Based on Rtings it has decent brightness....not too far from 1000 nits but I noticed the newer versions have much less brightness. The only thing I wish it had was. Brighter colours and better handling of super dark areas....it tends to crush blacks quite a bit imo.
BB and each tv brand come to an agreement with what will be displayed in the store and how it will be displayed. As far as openbox that's not a good quantifier as to which TV's are good or not. Someone could return a tv just bc they needed the money back or only used it for a big game or fight for their party. As far as Hisense goes, they're a good brand that I wish BB had more selection of.
I bought the Hisense 65 inch U6, mainly because of the 4 year guarantee, plus the picture quality was the same as the Samsung for me, which costed $200 more with 2 year guarantee.
Do you think the X85J is good for the current marked down price on Amazon? Ordered it cause I’m looking for a 75 inch, not sure what alternative to go with if I cancel
Was recently at Best Buy and was told they were getting back alot LG C2’s for build quality issues I purchased one and returned it.Plastic was flaking off near HDMI ports. TV didn’t really feel like an upgrade to me.The build quality was just not there. Feels cheap and plasticky. The contrast was a little better, but not natural looking. I will have to say gaming felt like an upgrade more responsive and better input lag but not enough to keep it.Staying with my 900E for a while longer and probably will be sticking with Sony for my next TV purchase. IMHO I feel the new sets coming out just don’t have the build quality as past years TVs.
Literally this ☝️. We’re better off keeping our old sets that at least still work lol. Doesn’t matter if we have the newest TV with 100% coverage of P3 wide color gamut or bt. 2020, if it’s just gonna fail soon. I’d rather keep an old reliable TV so I can keep watching.
I have a Sony TV and yet it is the best TV I ever had, yet I see a quite of Vizio TVs returned I was impressed, yet probably the next day will be another brand.
I totally agree with you 100%. Sony has one of the best picture on the market and that what made me buy a Sony KD 65X9300D it was very expensive but to my horror on the first night it developed a problem a line from the bottom was very thin about 10mm but then it started to spread upward to cover half of the screen. I took it back and they gave another TV but again after about 6 weeks the power unit stopped working so I asked for money back and got it but I looked around for another brand of TV to buy but nothing atv the time can close to sony picture so I ended up buy same model TV from another dealer. I do have some reservations about buying sony again.
What would u recommend as far as QLED tv 65 or 75 inch. I'm not doing any gaming on it it will be in my living room and only for cable TV, movies and sports Games that's it and I will be hooking up my 5.1 Dolby surround sound system to it... need something that will last and has great picture and at least 120hz refresh give my top 5 please
Good idea doing most returned. Good to know. Remember though to be fair. Not everyone can afford the best and I'll tell you from experience that buying the most expensive isn't a guarantee. I've owned 5k tv's only to have them go out in a couple of years. 👍
Bought the Samsung q80c last week and returned it the next day. While it had great colors it was by far the worst picture I'd seen on a TV pixelated crap. This was a 75" model and I was astounded how my Hisense 75r6e4 was comparable at a quarter of the price. I went out and bought the uk8 it's pretty awesome so far
So, what tv has the better motion handling without stepping up to the C1? Returned x90j as well and currently testing the U6GR but the motion is not great at all.
I've returned a Samsung and a Vizio in the last 20 years. Both hd TV's. Both swapped for Bravia's. A 09 kdl52z5100 and a 2020 x750h. The 09 isn't 4k but has native 240hz refresh rate. The much newer x750h is 4k but only a native 60hz! The '09 cost over 2k back in the day. Still looks great for movies. The newer, cheaper Sony looks better for games. I'm looking for something to superceded both tv's at the moment. Lookit at a 43 inch Sony x85k cause it's got vvr and 120hz. Under $700
I have a 6 year old Sony 4k, still working great and picture looks great! APPs sucks though lol. So I hook up a Nvidia Shield TV to it. I think LG will be my next TV purchase. Waiting for the Sony to die first lol.
Loving my 55" QN85A. It was the right price for $1000. Couldn't do OLED, need brightness. I don't watch a lot of HDR so I'm good. Those other brands though, you are right....they really get the gas face from best buy though.
I used to work for Best Buy. Samsung, LG, Sony all pay for those spots and for it to be displayed like that. It’s basically like Best Buy is a channel, and those companies are paying Best Buy to air their “ads” in between tv shows. Hisense can do that too if they paid the money. But honestly Hisense U8H > all other brands right now
Quantum TV, I know it's probably been asked of you, however, I must ask: Are you considering adding audio solutions to your channel? What I mean is home theater applications, speakers, receivers, pre/pros, amps etc?
I did enjoy this. I love my 77" C1 WBE which I'll never change because I don't wanna void any warranty but I still feel special I got it. Lol yeah man I love my C1 I'm on the fence about calibrating it though. Part of me wants to do it myself and the other part of me is a lazy F so yeah. Lol awesome vid! 🙂
I personally own both A90J and LG G1, personally the Sony is better. Sound is amazing and picture is much brighter. Then again everyone has different taste.
that sony motion is awful. then you literally get less feature and even less hdmi 2.1 ports. and the tv is made of recycled plastic. Sony is just not for me.
After watching a lot of your videos,i am questioning myself,should i cancel my 77 inch A80J order,i am using 65' A8F that bought on 2018,mostly use for PS5 and movies,is that a big upgrade in your opinion?Or should i just wait for the 2022 model
I’m surprised about their LG returns because their LG phones last a long time my husband had one.my husband brought a Vizio from Best Buy he had it for years still plays good.
I was nearly going to buy a A90J based on all the hype and because I'm after a 83inch, but now I'm aware of the motion I'm going to look elsewhere. At the end you mentioned the motion was good on the LG, which models? How does motion compare on say LG oleds 77inch and 83inch models? THANKS BRO
Need your input, please. Both C2 and A80K models are currently at the same price. My living room is pretty bright during the day and looking at the C2 there is tons of reflection, which is concerning to me. I do not do any gaming, strictly Netflix, Amazon and RU-vid streaming. What is your guidance/opinion?
I have the A90K 42" and also use it as a computer monitor, it works great and reflections aren't an issue, but I haven't seen the C2 to compare it against. But for a bigger TV I would check out the Samsung and Sony QD OLED TVs, they're more expensive though
I got the 43 inch Samsung Q60A and I love it just as much as my LG GN850-B 1440p144Hz IPS gaming monitor. I’ve actually switched my Series S over to the TV for now and plan to get the 32 inch version unless I can find a better 32 inch 4K panel
What is so so surprising, We’re are the shoppers? Thank u so much for giving me advise thru your videos about my Hisence 65 in. Excellent, yes I agree the lG C1 is better but price point was my limit. Nice job Tim
