If you’re keen to get a new 4K TV that has built-in streaming services provided by Amazon’s Fire TV software, it’s tough to get more for your money than with Hisense’s U6. The company’s 75-inch, feature-packed mini-LED TV is an even better value than usual thanks to the discount happening on the final day of Amazon’s Big Spring Sale. Right now, you can get it for an all-time low of around $549.96 ($750 off) at Amazon and Best Buy, which is actually $30 less than the discounted 65-inch model. You’re saving money while getting 10 more inches of screen real estate, not to mention more dimming zones. Hisense U6 mini-LED TV (2025) Where to Buy: $899.99 $549.96 at Amazon (75-inch) $899.99 $549.99 at Best Buy (75-inch) $759.99 $579.99 at Amazon (65-inch) The U6 is full of appealing specs. Aside from its mini-LED backlighting, which lends to its bright picture and vivid contrast, Hisense’s midrange TV supports up to a 144Hz refresh rate at 4K resolution through two of its four HDMI ports. This makes it a great choice if you want to play PC or console games at fast framerates (although consoles that support HDMI 2.1 top out at 120Hz refresh rate). HDR content should look good, too, no matter the service, since the U6 supports HDR10, HDR10 Plus Adaptive, HLG, and Dolby Vision IQ. Reviews site Rtings has some interesting tidbits to share from its testing of the 75-inch panel. For instance, the U6 features 320 dimming zones, up from 300 in the 65-inch model. However, the 75-inch model is the only size in the lineup that doesn’t use a VA panel. Instead, it has an ADS Pro panel, and Adam Babcock, a writer for Rtings, shared that it boasts better viewing angles than VA, but worse contrast. If you subscribe to Amazon Prime, you’ll be able to utilize Alexa Plus through the Hisense U6 (it’s $19.99 per month if you don’t have Prime). The upgraded voice assistant is generally a lot faster at surfacing search results and better at engaging you in more natural conversation than you might be expecting if you’ve used Fire TV devices in the past.
