Hisense UR9: The First RGB TV Test -- Official Review

Today I’m reviewing the Hisense UR9, one of the first RGB Mini-LED TVs most people can actually buy. Hisense has been pushing brightness, value, and now RGB backlighting hard, but does this new tech actually make a meaningful difference when you sit down to watch real movies, shows, sports, and streaming content? In this review, I cover the UR9’s pricing, design, Google TV performance, gaming and PC features, reflection handling, off-axis viewing, built-in sound, SDR and HDR measurements, color performance, and real-world picture quality. I also dig into what RGB backlighting is supposed to do, where it shows up, and whether it feels like a clear upgrade over traditional Mini-LED TVs. The Hisense UR9 is a gorgeous, incredibly bright flagship TV. The bigger question is whether RGB is the key to why it looks so good, or whether we need more side-by-side testing before making that call.
