The Hisense QLED 8 Series is a line of premium 4K Mini-LED QLED Google TVs designed for high-end home theater and gaming experiences, with model names like U8N (2024 model) and U8QG (2025 model) in North America.

Key Features and Description

• Display Technology: The TV uses Mini-LED Pro backlighting combined with Quantum Dot (QLED) color technology, which results in exceptionally high brightness, vibrant colors, and striking contrast with deep black levels.

• Brightness and Contrast: It features Full Array Local Dimming with hundreds to thousands of dimming zones (varying by screen size) to precisely control light. Peak brightness can reach up to 5,000 nits in some 2025 models (U8QG), making it suitable for both dark rooms and bright, well-lit rooms with indirect ambient light.

• Performance: It features a native 144Hz or 165Hz refresh rate panel, which makes motion appear smooth and crystal-clear, ideal for sports and fast-paced action.

• Gaming Features: The series is aimed at gamers, offering a Game Mode Ultra/Pro with Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) support (48Hz to 165Hz), AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, and Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) to eliminate screen tearing and input lag.

• Smart Platform & Audio: It uses the Google TV smart platform, offering a wide array of streaming services and hands-free voice control via Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa. Audio is enhanced with a multi-channel system (up to 4.1.2 in some models) with a built-in subwoofer and Dolby Atmos support for immersive sound.

• Design & Connectivity: The TV has a sleek, bezel-less design with an adjustable-height metal stand. It includes full HDMI 2.1 ports and in some recent models, a multi-functional USB-C port for connecting various devices.
