Hi all..
I wrote a pretty scathing review and deleted it based on my experiences dealing with Hisense.
First, the 2nd TV and and some new cables got things working correctly. Hisense has a really good team of tech people, they were patient and helped figure things out.
Now i have the TV/sound system I hoped i'd have.
Dollar for Dollar, Hisense makes a very good TV. My Roku now works correctly and while the onboard sound isn't terrible, there's little you can do with 1" thick speakers.. Buy this TV, add a decent sound bar/AV receiver and have a very good system for less that a well known brand name TV by itself.
Picture is good, colors are good, it doesn't need a lot of adjustments, but you can tweak it some to suit your own taste.
I'm not going to claim this is a $2500 TV, it's not, but 99% of us won't be able to tell the difference. So for $700 (I paid less on Amazon Prime Day) you'll still get a decent TV.. Watching sports is really nice.
Ultimately, I'm happy with my new TV.
I was stunned to find that the colors on the Hisense Roku TV looked much more vibrant. You can judge for yourself in the attached images. I made sure that the image settings were identical, as shown in one of the photos, and each television was under the same lighting in every picture.
The Roku operating system is famously simple and convenient. It's easy to download apps that provide many of the same channels seen on cable, along with video-on-demand services. In addition to HDMI ports, the television also has built-in RCA inputs, which allows for easy connection to older devices via those red, white, and yellow A/V cables. I also love the USB connector, which lets you enjoy video, audio, or images from a flash drive. Combine that with the ULED image quality, which is superior to other Hisense Roku televisions, including the newer "Quantum" model in my opinion, and the R8 is simply the best value when it comes to Roku TVs.
