The Hisense U65QF in a massive 100-inch size is currently selling for $1,497.99 on Amazon, down from $1,997, and price trackers show this is the lowest it has reached so far. That price is notable for a screen this large, since 100-inch TVs often cost well over $2,000 even from budget brands. Reviews have also been encouraging. PCMag gave the TV an “outstanding” rating and named it the best budget TV of 2025. The U65QF replaces the earlier U6N, a model many buyers liked because it delivered solid picture quality without a premium price. This newer version builds on that reputation with a brighter panel and a faster refresh rate, which makes it more flexible whether you mainly watch movies, sports, or spend time gaming.
The U65QF is a mini-LED QLED TV with 4K resolution and reaches roughly 1,024 nits of brightness, which is higher than many TVs in this price range. That extra brightness helps HDR formats like Dolby Vision, HDR10, HDR10+, and HLG show stronger highlights and more depth in scenes with bright lights or sunlight. Colors look rich but generally stay natural instead of being overly saturated. That said, as with many mini-LED TVs, some blooming can appear around bright objects against dark backgrounds, but that trade-off is common at this price. Gaming performance is also stronger than you might expect for a budget model, with support for a 144Hz refresh rate, variable refresh rate, and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro. Plus, the measured input lag sits around 13.1 milliseconds at 4K60 and 4.6 milliseconds at 1080p120 (meaning it’s responsive enough for most console or PC gaming), notes this PCMag review. For connections, you get four HDMI ports, including two that support 4K at 144Hz, along with an eARC port for a soundbar or receiver.
What do you think so far?
One change people may notice immediately is the software. Instead of Google TV, this model runs Amazon’s Fire TV platform. The upside is access to nearly every major streaming service, including Netflix, Disney+, YouTube, Apple TV, and Prime Video, along with Apple AirPlay for streaming from iPhones or Macs. The downside is that while the interface works well, it tends to show a lot of recommendations and ads on the home screen. Alexa voice commands are available, but the TV does not include hands-free microphones, so you have to press the voice button on the remote to speak. None of that affects the picture quality, but it does slightly change the overall experience compared with earlier Hisense models.
