Deal | The improved 2025 65-inch Hisense U8 Mini LED TV is on sale for $137 less than previous Amazon low price
Some manufacturers force buyers to pay a premium for their latest models. However, the Hisense U8QG, released in Spring 2025, is already seeing deep discounts. The Mini LED TV updates the popular Hisense U8N with improved brightness, deeper blacks, and higher refresh rate gaming modes. Stealing some thunder from the Amazon Prime Day deals, the 65-inch TV is available for $860.30 on Woot. The sale price is significantly lower than the current Amazon mark of $998.
Buyers could opt for an affordable 65-inch OLED TV, such as the Samsung S90D. Still, Mini LED technology has some advantages over its pricier competition. Reviews find that the 5000 nits peak brightness of the Hisense TV allows it to thrive in rooms with large windows. Even with ambient light, the picture quality of the U8QG remains crisp and clear. Unfortunately, reflections can distract viewers, and viewing angles aren't the widest.
While no Mini LED TV can rival the high contrast of OLED panels, the U8QG features 5000 dimming zones. As a result, the display can dim and brighten small sections of its screen at the same time. Support for Dolby Vision and HDR10+ enables the TV to take full advantage of its wide color gamut.
How the Hisense U8QG caters to gamers and audio buffs
Many of the improvements with the revamped TV over the Hisense U8N benefit gaming. Competitive gamers can now enjoy 4K gaming at a 165Hz refresh rate, or 1080p at 288Hz. VRR also reduces jitter during fast-paced FPS action. One slight disappointment with the display is that it only has three HDMI 2.1 ports. On the other hand, PC users may welcome the side-mounted USB-C connection that's compatible with DisplayPort signals.
The Hisense U8QG strives to be a well-rounded Mini LED TV with more dynamic audio. Even if most buyers should consider a soundbar, the 4.1.2 surround sound configuration emulates a larger speaker array. Similarly, the 65-inch TV can eliminate the need for standalone media players thanks to its feature-rich, Google-powered OS.
Most reviews conclude that the upgraded Hisense TV boasts enough advantages to outshine its predecessor. Future discounts aren't likely to make buyers regret ordering the U8QG for $860.30 during the Woot sale.
