Hisense has unveiled a “baby” version of its monstrous 116UX TV, the 100-inch 100UX. This model has a mini-LED backlight and very high brightness.
The Hisense 100UX is a 4K TV with the company’s proprietary RGB (red-green-blue) backlight. Hisense says it achieves 95% of the BT.2020 color space and up to 5,000 nits peak brightness. Meanwhile, the 116UX, which also goes on sale today. is capable of 8,000 nits.
The TV has HDMI 2.1 connectivity and Wi-Fi 6E. It likely includes the Google TV operating system and the 165Hz refresh rate of the larger size.
I got a hands-on with the 116-inch version and found it hit the brightness levels the company claimed — an industry-leading and eyeball-bleeding 8,000 nits — plus excellent color saturation.
TCL and Hisense are competing for the “really large TV” space, including the 115-inch TCL CNET saw last year. It will be interesting to see if there are similar high-end moves from competitors such as Samsung or LG.
The Hisense 100UX ($19,999) and the Hisense 116UX TV ($29,999) are available now.
