This 65-Inch Hisense Mini-LED TV Is Currently $300 Off.
The Hisense U65QF 65-inch TV is now on sale for $547.99, down from its original price of $847.99, and price analysts confirm that this is the lowest price ever recorded.
That’s a solid drop for a TV that’s also a PCMag Editors’ Choice, praised in an ” outstanding” review as “a bright, beautiful TV at a budget price.” That summary is spot on. The TV’s mini-LED backlight is the first thing that stands out. It gets bright (breaking the 1,000 nit mark), which you immediately notice when watching something prepared for Dolby Vision or HDR10 . High-contrast scenes, like night shots filled with neon signs, look sharp and bold, though you’ll notice some light glow on those high-contrast edges. That said, for a 65-inch model at this price, the picture seems brighter than last year’s Hisense U6N , which already had a solid reputation. If you’re looking for something larger, the 75-inch and 85-inch versions are also currently under $1,000.
The U65QF handles motion in a way that makes everyday viewing effortless, whether you’re watching a late-night movie or a weekend match. The 144Hz refresh rate keeps fast scenes sharp, so car chases, fast pans, and fast game replays don’t blur. The same responsiveness is evident in games, too. AMD FreeSync Premium Pro keeps images stable even when the frame rate drops, and the input lag—4.6ms at 1080p/120 and 13.1ms at 4K/60—helps the TV respond as quickly as you do. The panel’s brightness also plays a big role. Highlights remain vibrant without washing out shadows, and the screen maintains color accuracy well, even from the side, providing better viewing angles than you’d expect from a budget TV .
Hisense is truly changing direction in software, switching from Google TV to Amazon Fire TV, and the shift has a noticeable impact on the user experience. Fire TV is familiar, smooth, and supports all major streaming apps, but the interface is heavily reliant on ads. The platform still covers the basics well, offering AirPlay for Apple devices, though the lack of Google Cast means Android users are missing out on a convenient streaming option they may have become accustomed to. Alexa remains part of the system and handles voice commands seamlessly, but the lack of microphones for hands-free calling means you’ll still have to rely on the microphone button on the remote control every time. It’s a capable system, just not as flexible as before.
