We keep an eye on Hisense TVs here at Digital Trends, so you can imagine our excitement when we discovered one of the company’s best QLED models of 2024 is on sale this week: Right now, when you purchase the Hisense 65-inch U8N Series 4K ULED, you’ll only pay $948. The full retail price of this TV is $1,148. 

We tested the Hisense U8N back in May 2024 and reviewer Caleb Denison said, “The Hisense U8N is one of the best TVs of the year — especially if you don’t want to pay OLED prices.”

Why you should buy the Hisense U8N Series

It’s amusing to compare a QLED TV to an OLED TV when talking about contrast levels, but the Hisense U8N delivers inky blacks that are truly that good. While the U8N looks best in a darker room to experience the best local dimming effects, the TV gets bright enough to combat glare and reflections in a well-lit room when watching SDR content.

The Hisense U8N supports all HDR formats and features HDMI 2.1 connectivity on ports 3 and 4. Thanks to the TV’s native 144Hz refresh rate, Game Mode, and VRR support, the U8N is an excellent choice for console and PC gaming. You can also expect a wide color gamut, with terrific coverage of the DCI-P3 color space.

Apps, casting, and compatible smart home controls are brought to you by Google TV. Once connected to the internet, you’ll be able to access apps like Netflix and Disney Plus, hundreds of free live TV stations, along with Apple AirPlay 2 and Chromecast.

Save $200 on the Hisense 65-inch U8N Series 4K ULED when you purchase today. And if you’d like additional Hisense TV recommendations, you should also take a look at our roundups of the best QLED TV deals, best TV deals, and best Amazon deals.

Your next song could soon carry an AI warning label, and the music industry is all for it
AI isn't the problem anymore. Knowing it's AI is.
AI tag imagined with AI

The music industry's battle with artificial intelligence is entering a new phase. After spending the past two years fighting AI companies in court and pushing back against unauthorized training on copyrighted music, record labels are now turning their attention to something far simpler: transparency. A coalition representing major record labels, artists, and music organizations wants streaming services such as Spotify and Apple Music to clearly tell listeners when a song has been created with artificial intelligence.

The proposal, first reported by The Wall Street Journal, comes as AI-generated music becomes increasingly difficult to distinguish from songs created by human artists. Rather than banning AI music altogether, the industry is arguing that listeners deserve to know what they're hearing before they hit play.

Your YouTube playlists can now become actual TV shows, but there’s a catch you need to know
YouTube just gave Partner Program creators the episodic infrastructure that Netflix has been using to keep audiences hooked for years.
Electronics, Mobile Phone, Phone

YouTube just gave its creators a tool that streaming platforms take for granted. I’m talking about the ability to structure content as proper episodic TV. 

If you're in the YouTube Partner Program and you’ve been organizing your videos into playlists while praying that the algorithm and your audience notice, then Shows is the upgrade you've been waiting for.

Sony IER-M500 Launched Featured in use by artists

Built for the stage, not the daily commute
