Although Black Friday and Cyber Monday are behind us, the deals on some of our favorite TVs of the year are still going strong. If you're deciding between two budget Mini-LED TVs, I know just which TV you should pick, and it's not because of the price.
Right now, you can get the 65-inch Hisense U65QF Mini-LED TV for $579 at Best Buy. That knocks $420 off the asking price and is $70 cheaper than the TCL QM6K. While both are great picks if you want a budget Mini-LED TV, the Hisense model offers the best value.
The Hisense U65QF is a serious value, offering the full range of HDR formats in tandem with stellar features that make it stand out. It's not only great for gamers, but also has the perfect amount of gaming enhancements to make it a steal, whether you're playing on PS5 or PC.
What stands out are its underlying specs that most might not even notice. Unlike the TCL QM6K, the Hisense U65QF offers Wi-Fi 6 capabilities, netting more stable and reliable internet connections. The U65QF is also equipped with an ATSC 3.0 tuner, giving you access to Nextgen TV and 4K broadcasts.
If these features weren't enough to let the Hisense U65QF stand out, it also boasts better performance in our testing lab. Not only does it spit out higher brightness in both SDR and HDR, but it also offers more accurate color.
While both TVs come with a very similar input latency at just over 13ms, the Hisense U65QF is built on Fire TV, unlike the TCL model that uses the Google TV interface. This ensures you'll get a wider range of cloud gaming support, plus access to Alexa Plus for additional smart home functionality.
Overall, while both TVs are a great value, the Hisense U65QF is the one to get. Not only is it currently cheaper, but it simply offers better specs and performance, making it the undisputed pick when looking for an inexpensive Mini-LED TV right now.
