Hisense can't even do BFI, pretty much bottom tier for motion.

75-inch is OOS and 85-inch is down to 2 available. Was gonna return my good but buggy af 65-inch Hisense U8K and get the 75-inch X90L.…

Ummm, CRT has better motion handling than any flat panel. One of the main reasons that BFI exists, is because flat panel tech is so far…

Have they jacked their pricing in order to make their offshoot, Buddy Telco, look more competitive? Cos that's what it looks like to me.…

At the cost of some jankiness, this is actually a good setup for recording high bitrate video on a budget. Slightly less expensive than…

If you are buying this for speed, keep in mind you will more likely get ~800MB/s write speeds. To actually get 1000 MB/S (or higher) you'll…

What's the better value alternative?

Bravia 5 or 7 is the current model, X90L is from 2023.

Yeah if it's not clearly stated, not stated at all or if there is ambiguity/hidden terms, you can definitely push your case. Gonna depend…

There's no way the G4 is worth an extra 2 grand - slightly brighter in SDR, but the S90D is brighter in HDR with better colour volume.…

The AU site (https://www.tcl.com/au/en/tvs/65c655) says it does 2K at 120, so 1440p. Unless they are being cute and its only does cinema…

The TCL is much brighter and with significantly better colour volume. So it's not as straight forward as the Sony FALD algorithm and image…

The UK site says the same 'Mini LED Pro' as the AU site, so it looks like Hisense are effing them in the a-hole as well and only the US are…

The AU model should be brighter than 1600 nits - what's the source for this? I can only find reviews of the 75 inch U8NAU, and they mention…

Have the U8K, last year's versions of this. Good TV for the money, Hisense eventually rolled out a firmware around Feb this year that dealt…

Yeah but wasn't that only available to CBA employees employees and was $2499 https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/842740 You'd be extremely…

Testing was a little bit bumpy. TLDR - fine for PCIE gen 4 drive, but suitability for PCIE gen 3 depends on use case. With Windows the…

I had an Orico 20Gbps 3.2 gen 2x2 enclosure, delivered today. It was $45 delivered from the official Orico store on Ebay AU. Getting…

VIDAA is fooked. Also, my U8K keeps getting black screen/audio only whenever I use the clear motion setting. Firmware updates and a…

I'm thinking they toked on a bit of asbestos

True. Maybe the site needs a feature to flag this type of stuff. Like a little graph at the top of the page, show time of year vs expected…

It's 3300 x 4150 x 3800, massively smaller than a typical oven. Also still much cheaper to run, easier to clean, etc. No comparison.

Wait 4-6 months and save a further $600-800. This ain't no deal, mfkers.

Safety lol. Clowns can't even do an accelerator pedal properly. Get out of the saddle and back in to reality.

The TCL is significantly better.

That's more like it. How can some people be alleged OzB'ers, but be sooooooo shite at maths? Fkn 5 years lol

The TCL C845 is pretty much the same TV, just with some differences in the implementation. Seeing as the C845 75-inch is almost identical…

[$2388](https://www.videopro.com.au/product/hisense-mini-led-75-u8kau-4k-mini-led-pro-2023-75u8kau/) probs be delivery charges on top. I…

JB Hi-Fi and Good Guys have the 65-inch U8K for $1895 and VideoPro has it for $1788.

Typing this on PC connected to 65 inch U8K now. My first unit was buggy, had the main board replaced and it was still buggy. Got a…
