Thanks for this! I have a 75" QM750G, but looking to upgrade to an 85" U8N. I know it’s going to be a bit dimmer (online I think I saw 2,500 nits peak instead of 3,000 exclusive for the 65 and 75 sizes), but the reflection handling is the bigger swing for me thinking Hisense U8N. I don’t like that rainbow smear the TCL QM851G does.

Almost waited for this review before purchasing my 65U8N but wanted to upgrade before this summer’s Copa/Euro soccer tournaments. I’m glad I didn’t wait since I doubt I could tell the difference between them given these numbers but the Hisense was/is amazing in my bright room. And a huge upgrade in perceived contrast and colors coming from a 2018 C8 OLED!

Is there any real surprise about the scores for these TVs. They are more alike than different. Value wise, you can’t beat either TV as you’re getting 90-95% of an OLED (and even better if/when content creators start mastering movies at higher brightness levels as it is my understanding that MOST (almost ALL) content is mastered for 600-1000 nits so most TVs (with the vast majority of TVs sold in the <$1,000 price point) can reliably produce a good picture with limited color ranges and limited brightness. It is only in the last couple of years that TVs could produce high brightness levels at a price point most people can afford.
