I realize you are just a giant troll and likely already know this, but guess who else makes kitchen appliances (and other general household appliances) in addition to televisions?

• LG
• Samsung
• TCL
• Panasonic
• Sony (don't believe me? Look it up)

Is Hisense as reliable as some of the major brands? According to Consumer Reports, no, but I have experienced warranty issues with a Hisense TV and they stood behind their product with minimal fuss. If I was purchasing a Hisense TV at Costco (especially with an extended warranty), I'd have zero concerns.

Hisense and TCL is being carried by Costco and Walmart mostly. Sometimes it's not hard to find them in Bestbuy or even local chains. Their footprint is just as wide.

BUT.... the brand building is still years away. It's hard. Just like Hyundai and Kia it still perceived as inferior cars by a lot of people. People are still bitching about shitty Sharp TVs when Hisense acquired them and put their panels under a Sharp logo. It's hard to get rid of the low end image.

you have 7000+ posts on RFD, you must be poor.

how can you possibly assume someone's wealth based on a single brand they might have/use. i sure hope you have simplehuman trash cans, soap dispeners, drive a Bugatti and only wear Rolex.

Though I get what you're saying and understand why people pay for the higher-end brands with anything.

Same reason why people buy a BMW 1/2 series or MB A/B series that's basically a Corolla with a fancy badge. There are a lot of people that cares about the badge then real performance of the product.

I know that comment will touch a nerve but deep in your heart, you know I'm right and there are people that are vain and purely choose a product based on branding and appearance.

And I'm not saying Hisense/TCL won't breakout of the budget image. Samsung and LG did it. But it ain't easy.

I wouldn't hesitate to buy a Hisense, they seem like decent TVs. I prefer to spend less on depreciating assets, as long as we take care of them and they have a decent track record.

I also have a 49" Haier in a guest bedroom which I repurposed as a work monitor when pandemic started. I don't really give a shit what people think either.

Also have a 65" hisense about 2 years old from Costco, also no issues.

Yeah it was the same deal I bought, we got a sign up promo code with Costco

You get what you pay for.

Yes you do. And for $1000 all in you get a massive 75” TV. I am considering this for our downstairs space at the cottage as my kids become teens and need a hang out space.

This is my C1 OLED, but would work in a space like that.

Is this your first time on the internet since 2015?

I like the fact that this is Android TV, not Roku.

No thanks. Hisense 4 eva

I think Hisense used to be Sharp America. Sharp Aquos TV used to be one of the best LCD TV several years ago. How soon we forget. Now owned by a Chinese company, Hisense.
No wonder Sharp suddenly disappeared

Honestly people need to stop comparing apples to oranges. Don't compare this with a 3k OLED and call this crap.

I have the 55, got it for under $500. Zero complaints.. I'm actually shocked at the quality and product for that price.

Maths on RFD

I have 2 65" Hisense. A 9809 from 2019 and U8GR that I bought at Costco. My only complaint with 9809 is the Android TV slow and buggy. I spent the 50$ and bought a Fire 4K max.
The other one is too new to have anything to say, but my appreciation for the brand made me buy a second one.
Best bang for the buck.

Got a Hisense Roku 75R61G just over a year ago, zero complaints. $900 might not get you the best TV there is, but it's more than enough for me.

Used to chase the videophile type options in a former life (pre kids...), but at $900 for a 75", I took a chance and don't regret it in the slightest.

Interesting.
Hyundai also. What, never heard of Hyundai TVs you say? I bought my first flat screen TV from Home Depot(!), a 40" Hyundai, because it was the first flat screen TV of that size that sold for less than a grand. Everyone was impressed I tell you ;-). Fortunately I also bought the extended warranty which came in handy when it died in a little over a year. The warranty company apparently couldn't find a repair technician in all of Canada so that was an automatic full refund.

I know someone close to me that wants to by a Dyson because "people look at that". I don't give a shit, as long as the vacuum does the job I'm happy.

As for this TV, I'm looking for a 65inch myself so this does not work but I think it is a great deal for a 75inch.

my tv died on me a few weeks ago and have been constantly looking to find something on a good deal.

can anyone comment on this hisense?

https://www.costco.ca/hisense-55-in.-4k ... 11642.html

should I get this? or is there a likely deal coming soon that I should wait for? ( don't have the budget for $1000+ tv tbh)

Did I miss anyone posting if it's cheaper in store?

Not carried in-store apparently. Could be different in other places but I asked.

For TV's, yes. I bought my Panasonic Plasma from Target off a RFD deal at Target and it's still kicking today. Why would I replace something that isn't broken?

So no, never heard of Hisense.
