Nt sure bro. Maybe you can find out and let us know.

Looks like the U8H has 10% off Plus free gift for 29 july to 31 aug 2022.
if its at 2999 like what has been today price + 10% then its feels to be a decent price at 2700 for the 75inch.

But with 8.8 round the corner, its going to be a interesting market for Samsung and LG to get some sales back.

My 75" U8H came, the local dimming zones got about 18 horizontally and 10 vertically or so, I just count from having those small white box moving across the screen. Blooming doesn't annoy me that much but have to wait and see till night time since house still very bright. The annoying part now is things are a bit over-saturated so I have to spend more time tuning the settings.


FYI I also considered ordering the 75" U8H from Courts but if u reach the checkout page the delivery at earliest is 23/08.

Anyone care to feedback between Hisense A6H and Iffalcon K71SG on their 55"? Looking at entry level tv for Mediacock programs, movies and Nintendo switch games.

Both pricing around +-$700 region. Current 40" Sony seems small for living room. Initially wanted to get Xiaomi P1 too....

my understanding was there was 3 sets available for the U8H 75" so you were one of the lucky 3.

The demo that I saw was on the 65" and it was reasonably good when put to Cinema Dark.

So the screen is sufficiently bright to watch in the daytime with sunlight coming in through the windows etc?

How's the upscaling of Standard Definition content (e.g. free to air channels, cable TV box etc)?

Interesting articles by Australia
Hisense Australia’s latest financials for 2020 reveal an alarming increase in provisions for warranty claims, with insiders at the Chinese Company telling ChannelNews there are “major” problems associated with their VIDAA U OS.

In 2019, Hisense Australia provisioned $16.9M for service warranties. In 2020, this blew out to an additional provision of $34.6M being allocated, with the Company allowing for claims of up to 5 per cent, which is well above the industry standard of between 1% and 1.5% for TV’s.

The warranty claims on their books also allows for Hisense appliance claims.

Harvey Norman and JB Hi-Fi experience around “A 1% return or warranty claim.”

The problem appears to be the decision by the Chinese Company to use their own VIDAA operating system, which is causing problems with applications such as Netflix.

According to one source at Hisense Australia, the now-sacked customer service manager Afroditi Myron, who Chinese management are accusing of being involved in a claimed major fraud of up to $3.37M, attempted to shift their customer service operation to the Philippines, but this “went pear-shaped” after just two months.

As warranty-claim problems were mounting at the local subsidiary, a fight broke out between Hisense Australia and Hisense management in China over payment for software fixes, with China insisting the local subsidiary pay for any software coding.

One problem app for Hisense operating on the VIDAA OS has been Netflix.
…..
Hopefully 2022 has all the vidda software sorted out

Anyone heading down to courts to take a look at their u8h promotion?
I went down earlier to have a look. They were still getting everything up and running.

U8H having 10% off, promo till end August. No mention of any free gifts though.

The OLED was also on display. Nice colours but price also not cheap. About S$2,799 for the 65 inch

Did you check the price for 65u8h. Was it going for 1999 before 10 percent discount?
