Hisense U7 Series 100U75QG 99.5"

It's a 100-inch tidal wave of brightness and speed that costs less than some 65-inch OLEDs. But it's out of stock everywhere, and newer rivals like the LG C5 and Hisense U8 have pushed past it. Wait for a restock or buy the U8 instead.

The numbers here are insane. HDR performance sits in the top 1% of all TVs we track, and the picture quality lands in the top 2%. That 3000-nit peak makes specular highlights pop like literal firecrackers. Gaming is a standout too, the 165Hz refresh rate, VRR up to 288, and FreeSync Premium Pro deliver buttery smooth, tear-free sessions. The 2.1.2-channel audio with 60W of power surprised us, it's not Sonos Arc level but has decent low-end thump. About the only real letdown is off-angle viewing, the VA panel washes out quickly if you're not centered, and the reflection handling is just okay despite the anti-glare layer.

The competitive field has shifted hard. The LG C5 OLED55C5PUA now leads the pack with perfect blacks and wide viewing angles, while the Samsung Neo QLED QN990F brings 8K resolution and superior processing. Sony's BRAVIA 9 K85XR90 is the new premium LCD benchmark, and the TCL QM8K Series 75QM8K remains a strong Mini-LED alternative with a cleaner picture at smaller sizes. Even Hisense's own U8 Series 100U8QG has leapfrogged the U7 in the rankings. This U7 still wins on sheer cinematic scale, but it's no longer the obvious giant-screen pick it once was.

The real problem right now isn't the price, it's that you can't find this TV anywhere. It's out of stock across every vendor we track. When it was available, prices had crept up from the insane $1,519 lows to around $2,090, and even at two grand this 100-inch monster undercut 83-inch OLEDs by thousands. But a great value you can't buy is just a great spec sheet. Wait for restocks, and don't pay a cent over $2,100 when they return.

The Hisense U7 100U75QG is a massive, blazingly bright Mini-LED TV that makes OLED owners genuinely jealous. Its 100-inch screen floods your room with 3000 nits of peak brightness, inky blacks from thousands of dimming zones, and a native 165Hz panel that gamers will adore. If you want a true home theater centerpiece without selling a kidney, this is the one to beat, assuming you can actually find one in stock.

If you watch TV from wide angles or have seating off to the sides, skip this and get an OLED like the LG C5. The U7's VA panel loses contrast quickly when you move. And if you don't have a wall or stand big enough for a 100-inch panel, obviously look smaller. Right now, you should also skip it if you need a TV this month, because it's out of stock everywhere.

Buy it if you can find it, and that's the catch. The Hisense U7 100U75QG is still a phenomenal giant-screen value on paper, but it's out of stock everywhere and the competition has caught up. The LG C5, Sony BRAVIA 9, and even Hisense's own U8 have all pushed past it in the rankings. If you see one pop back in stock at a sane price, grab it. If not, the U8 100U8QG is the smarter giant-screen buy right now.
