Okay , so I am trying to correct you at being wrong and I am being defensive .  Great .
It is fine if you insist you are right , perhaps you sleep better at night thinking you have bought the things you wanted despite of the truth .
What about the possibility of others reading your post and mistakenly bought something they didn't want to ?

I am involved in a lot of conversation concerning TVs not because I need to prove myself .
Correcting you here , will actually save me times from explaining to people who were confused about your claims and end up messaging my inbox .
The H9G Series has a native 10 bit color depth panel  , as shown below .


The U8 series are using 8bit + RFC .


And just based on the inconsistency alone , this 2 TV cannot be the same model when both TV are using 2 screen of completely different bit depth .
Why ? Because of the cost and performance difference .
Also your so called 65 " Local Dimming H9 series are listed as having " only " 132 zones here . 
I cut the portion of the TV title (namely the size) and paste on the top of the specs since they cannot fit into one frame .
So whoever is right ? Who knows but I am thinking the review at AVforums make more sense now because they have only discovered 110 zones in the 55 " .


I also like how you have conveniently dodged the brightness gap numbers  , when there is almost 600 cd/m2 of difference [which is massive] between 2 TVs that have over 1000 nits peak brightness .
It will take a lot more power budget to increase 600 nits of luminance on TV that's over 1000 nits .

Clearly the H9G is one of the best LCD Hisense ever made beside their 8K TVs . If anything U8 has more resemblance with the H8 series .

There , be glad that I got your panties in a bunch so you don't wet them in an instant.

You can't , we don't have a H9G equivalent model in the Malaysian Market . They are exclusive to the US and Canada region I believe .

We do have the U800QF model which is based on the U8QF series from the European region .

The U8QF has an 8 bit + RFC panel unlike the native 10 bit used by H9G .

Normally this isn't an issue because 8 bit + RFC can look almost as good as 10 bit with post-picture processing like the smooth gradation feature on LG , Samsung , Sony's TVs.
But in Hisense's current situation this can be problematic since their TV do not have smooth gradient features implemented .
