Hisense 55 Inch TV 4K Smart TV ULED Premium Built in Bluetooth & WiFi Alexa Compatibility - 55U8G

It runs on Vidaa not android. Not as advertised

in UAE it is VIDAA os and not Androidبالإمارات نظام التشغيل مو اندرويد

This is the U8GQ with VIDAA OS and not Android so not the same as the US variant.Product title, description, and pictures are all inaccurate.

I received a broken tv , with no remote , and missing bolts

This is not U8G, it's U8GQ which is bad and way cheaper, DO NOT BUY

TV delivered has serial number U8GQ which is supposedly the European variant however exterior look of the TV is similar to Australian variant not European so i am unsure which TV i ended up with now but for sure not the US one as OS is VIDAA not Android, picture quality is good tho.

Es el mejor televisor que puedes adquirir por este rango de precio, te ofrece tecnologías de otras pantallas que cuestan 25 mil o más, la mejor relación calidad/precio, perfecta para consolas de nueva generación

Installation only took 15 minutes and setup went fast with automatic firmware update during intial setup. Android TV (not Google TV at the present time) is very nice and super responsive but I normally don't use native apps because I have my Roku ultra connected. This TV is my new screen for PC gaming even though I haven't purchased it based on it's exclusive gaming ability (VRR and native 120Hz on 4K) plus G-sync.What turned out to purchasing this TV for me started from last year and after one unsuccessful TV I bought directly from a popular retail store and eventually forced me to dig as deep as I can with all available options and my financial limit on investing again for a new TV. My unsuccessful experience last year with a Sony Bravia (none OLED) made me to be quite cautious about the name brands and instead, just look forward to the practical usage reports and spec differences. So I went on comparing almost every OLED, Qled and... TV models from 2020 to 2021 by Sony, Samsung, LG, TLC and Hisense. I compared models with each other apple to apple and then started watching YouTube videos and finally reading people's review on reliable websites. That's why I am doing my best here for anyone who might go the same route as I did. The fact is, ever since the pandemic on March 2020, my life has fundamentally changed to the way I'm spending tens of hours more in my place than I ever used to do and a big portion of that time goes right in front of the TV (now thankfully, this TV). So long story short, if you don't want to spend over 2K for a 4K TV, the only big decision would be if you like QLED or OLED? There are obvious differences between these two screen types and each one has it's own weekness and straight against the other but at the end of the day, it's quite depends on where you are planning to watch the TV and what types of contents you are mostly planning to watch (like SD, HD or gaming or streaming and...). If you want to experience less frustration or disappointments, you'd better to spend time and pay attention to important factors before paying for a TV. The popular TV makers usually make TVs for all identical usage case but they don't categorize their products based on the factors I just encountered here but the technology has been used.What I like to add about this dreamy TV here is what I couldn't find directly in any source I have ever studied and that's the ability to upscale SD channels or SD movies. I spent a lot of time watching TV channels and basically I have TV subscription and cable box (and yes, I wouldn't consider the traditional TV channels line up to be HD but high quality SD like what you get from watching DVDs) so this TV does what I expected and I wasn't quite sure about until I could see it by myself. What I see now with the TV channels I have used to watch, is quite impressive to the point that I can certainly say it's exceeded my expectations. I knew this TV is on par with Samsung Q90a when it comes to HDR content with slightly better brightness but I didn't expect to watch SD content to this level of clarity and sharpness. Just keep two things in mind that you might need to add a soundbar to the sound system because this is like most of other brands come with limited internal speaker capabilities and for sound you might want to spend a little bit extra time to choose the right model as you get what you pay for as usual. I have had my boss soundbar already with my previous TV and I just swap it out and connect it to this one and finally, no TV is perfect right out of the box so you might want to learn how to do the right picture adjustments in order to get the most out of your TV capabilities. The result is not like day and night but it's still quite impressive if you know what variables are essential to change and how you should adjust them to your preferences. You are not going to need screen calibration with this TV model (Hisense U8G) based on what I experienced.I should empesive my utmost happiness in doing business with Amazon as a prime member for such impressive and fast shipping and handling from the moment I ordered this TV because it only took one day and when delivered, there were two nice guys who called me a few minutes before arriving and then they brought the TV inside my place carefully which made me very grateful.If you have done your research enough and still on the edge, I would highly recommend this TV based on my personal experience. Now it's time to have fun!Update 8/19/21- I am adding this update here for those who are serious in buying a good and affordable smart TV. Did I know where the Hisense TV originated? Yes, I was doing research for months before buying my new TV and honestly I am not a fan of chinese products at all But there are a few expectations and this turned out to be one of them. My overall rating for this TV is still 5 stars, all because I can't give it any more. New smart TVs are complicated and there are menus and adjustments and calibrations everywhere. Don't confuse yourself by just evaluating a product only by reading the reviews. This TV is not only one of the best available smart TVs on 2021 in the market but it might be the best TV for gaming PCs and consoles out there hands down.

Perfecta para el precio, la compre pensando en el nuevo xbox. lo unico que falta es en la nueva entrada 2.1 pero dado que muchos juego no llegan a los 120 fps no es necesario a menos que te importe mucho que cuente también con HDR10, si es asi pasa de la televisión y compra un monitor ya por el precio de 1450 usd (sin descuento) puedes conseguir un monitor que cumpla con lo que quieres, claro no será de 55" pero no hay pantallas en este rango de precio que lo cumpla todo

*9/10/22 - HiSense support resolved my issue. If you're having the problem of blurred text using 120hz go to Picture setting, then Advanced Picture Settings and change the option to "Optimize for text clarity". The other mode uses some form of blurring ir aliasing to smooth images. The text option is native and doesn't apply that garbage.*Latest update 9/1/22 - TV automatically updated itself today and now the 120hz blurred screen issue has returned, no settings changes resolve it. Not happy!!! How does an update break something that was fixed in the last update!? Called in and was told they will email me a firmware. **Since writing this update the company support has reached out to me and I spoke with one of the developers. Good customer service! We'll see if we can get it resolved...*Latest update 3/22/22 - The other day an update was released for the TV and now it finally displays 120hz correctly!!! I've also had no issues as of late with signal detection, it's early but time will tell. So far looking like they fixed some major complaints. Upgrading my rating*Update - a year or so later* - this TV is a piece of junk, do NOT buy! Sure the picture looks good but it has a serious flaw detecting input!! For example, if I set my computer to download something that is going to take a few hours if I turn the TV off it will not reestablish the signal to the PC when I turn it back on!!! I have to physically power down the computer and boot it up from scratch then select the input when the keyboard lights up. It's maddening and what if I don't know if the download or install is completed yet? Haaaate this. Plus there's the dead pixels that started popping up I mentioned earlier. Lastly there's that damn annoying high pitched fluctuating chirp you can hear in a quiet room when it's turned off. Buy something better! I'm beginning to hate this TV so much.*Update 6 months later* - over this time 5-6 dead pixels have appeared, most not too noticeable but one lost noticeable but still only at certain times. Never was able to get 120hz refresh rate to work using a PC like everyone else has reported (RTX 3080, HDMI 2.1 8K/4K 120hz cable), etc) as text get all fuzzy/distorted. Have to run it at 60hz. Had a number of times where it went black for a second then came back to normal. So, some issues but overall it has a fantastic picture and is the brightest screen I've ever seen. Would I recommend for the price? Absolutely. Would I buy again? Mmmm probably not. I'd probably spend another $600-$700 for something more high end. Still very happy with it, just letting me down more as time goes on.Using this for my Flight Simulator setup. Changed out to this from a super ultrawide monitor that I loved but was just too vertically narrow which wasn't as immersive. Been really enjoying this screen. Zero dead pixels and awesome picture quality. Bright as heck! Colors are very vivid.

Tras un mes de uso no me decepciona, esos 1,500 nits brillan en situaciónes de mucha luz y los reflejos tampoco se venExcelente para consumir stream y gracias a si HDMI 2.1 y su 120 fps tmb a consolas de nueva generación, una delicia
