Conclusion​

Product	PROS AND CONS​
Hisense S7N​	Pros: Great value for the price compared to its predecessor (Samsung Frame TV). Slim design with a nice simulated wood frame, easy to mount with magnetic frame. Excellent picture quality with a matte finish and good colors. Large capacity for storing photos, allowing about 500 images to be uploaded. Built-in art selection, with the option to add personal photos. Motion sensor turns off the TV when you leave the room. Remote is highly rated for functionality. Easy setup of Google Photos for screensaver mode. Great for displaying photos and artwork, especially for a clean wall-mounted look. Cons: Mounting is challenging due to the TV being heavy and requiring precise alignment. The frame’s art mode lacks options like 3D mats and artistic frames (compared to the Samsung Frame TV). No direct integration with Google Photos for art mode (requires USB or phone upload). Built-in art selection is limited, and you may need to download additional art to fill the gallery. No ability to display multiple pictures with virtual frames in single photo mode. The design lacks black or gold frames, which may be a downside for some. Limited texture options for enhancing the appearance of photos or artwork.
Hisense U8N​	Pros: Affordable alternative to OLEDs: Excellent picture quality with impressive brightness, colors, and contrast, making it a solid choice for those seeking a high-definition experience without the OLED price tag. Great sound quality: Satisfies picky viewers with great audio performance, adding to the overall experience. Intuitive interface: Easy to use, with a smooth setup process. Great for those who aren't looking for a complex TV interface. Value for money: Incredible performance at a $650 price point, offering picture quality on par with much more expensive models (like the Samsung model that cost 4x as much). Impressive picture quality: The picture rivals higher-end models, providing a similar experience to more expensive brands. Intended for all types of use: Whether for casual viewing or more critical viewing, this TV delivers quality for all needs. Cons: Limited long-term brand familiarity: The reviewer mentions being initially skeptical about Hisense but was pleasantly surprised. This could indicate that some people may still be hesitant about lesser-known brands. Not as good as top-tier models: While it competes with more expensive TVs, it still can't quite match the best OLEDs or other premium models in all areas (though it does well for the price).
Hisense U7N​	Pros: Great picture and sound quality: The 75" Hisense U7N offers a stunning 4K picture with Dolby Vision, HDR 10+, and excellent color performance. The sound quality is also praised as fantastic. Good for gaming: Handles high refresh rates (120Hz VRR) and offers excellent response times for gaming, with minimal lag and impressive HDR performance. Handles various media well: The TV handles everything from 4K content to HDR, making it versatile for various uses. Large size: The 75" model delivers a big, immersive viewing experience. Affordability: The TV delivers premium features at a more budget-friendly price, particularly for a 75" model. Solid for a "dumb TV": If you're not interested in using the smart features, it still offers a fantastic picture and sound quality. Cons: Non-intuitive interface: Switching between TV audio and soundbar audio, as well as toggling between local antenna and streaming channels, is not as seamless as it could be. The setup process can be confusing and time-consuming. Difficult to find settings: Certain settings, like the audio delay and managing the on-screen menu, are harder to find or navigate. The cluttered menu makes it difficult to remove videos from the watchlist. Heavy and cumbersome: The large size and weight make moving or mounting the TV a two-person job. The center foot design can cause stress on glass-top stands, requiring extra caution. Smart features lacking: The TV’s built-in smart features are considered subpar when compared to external streaming devices like Apple TV or using a PC, and some users prefer not connecting it to the network at all.
