Summary

Linus takes the massive Hisense 116UX—one of the biggest 4K RGB-miniLED TVs out there—for a spin and quickly realizes that dropping from ~20,000 local dimming zones to ~10,000 (or even ~3,600) on a 116-inch screen really hurts black levels and contrast. It’s bright and eye-popping in size, but the picture just isn’t as tight as you’d hope for a flagship panel.

He runs through movies and benchmarks, debates keeping this behemoth, then ultimately decides the hefty price and underwhelming dimming chops make it a pass. Bigger doesn’t always mean better, especially when the performance takes a step back.
