I bought this for my covered patio in AZ.
on July 3, 2020
Posted by: scottxray
Verified Purchase:Yes
This has worked well for my patio tv in AZ . The Firetv works well and allows u to listen to music via internet apps or watch subbed programming too clearly , and the built in tuner seems to be pretty sensitive as well. Although it is not designed for outside use it has so far held up well. An occasional wipe down and blow out of dust is helpful, but I have not any issues that would indicate any problems even without that . It is wall mounted high on the patio uner the cover and stays fairly clean in that area. The sound is loud enough for casual listening, but not for a pool party( for instance)

The all-new Echo Show features a new look, a vibrant 10" HD screen, built-in smart home hub, and improved speakers. Just ask Alexa to show you a recipe, watch live TV and sports with Hulu, make video calls, or see who's at the front door.

uasefulness is limited

Verified Purchase:Yes
Wife wanted this for the kitchen but I found it to have limited recipe functions. HP printer can be used to print some thiongs like the shopping list yet will not print a recipe. Also the printer frequently disconnects and is a pain to re-enable. this may be an HP issue but I suspect it is the Show itself.

The netgear router is adequate for medium usage as a streming center for up to 5 -6 devices. High bandwidth at 4k def on more than 2 simultaneous feeds may be problematic.

Office 365 for windows. Works well. Subscription service that is hassle free although you can probably get a better price by buying new at Costco rather than BB renewal service.

Voice remote and wireless streaming at great speed. Fire tv has pretty much every streaming service you could ask for.
Occasional voice to video sync issues, but can be cleared by changing channel or streaming service then returning.

The SSD makes this boot from power off to win10 logon in 24 seconds flat. Although 128gb seems small it is totally fine for an e-mail and non gaming type pc. I switched it to full win10 and set it up for my older sister for their use and she loves it.

Placed this on my patio. It is loud enough to work as a music source for the patio table area, Good sound and bass for close by. Does not have the range and depth of the Show or full size echo but fine for this.

Change your entertainment game! The U7 series smart display from Hisense is packed with lots of exciting features that dramatically improve your watching and playing experience. Think: Mini-LED Pro, QLED Quantum Dot color technology and 144Hz Game Mode Pro. Plus, we even equipped the U7 with a NEXTGEN TV ATSC 3.0 tuner and Wi-Fi 6E router compatibility, making it virtually future-proof.
 

Can I fit a Soundbar in front of this U7 TV? I will be having the TV sitting on a TV stand/console and the soundbar sitting in front of the TV. My Soundbar is 2-7/8" in height.

U7N has 3.3" clearance for soundbars in the front of the stand.

Where does this new U7N stand in comparison to the old-ish U8K, I was gonna grab the U8K but doesn't seem to be available through best buy anymore, and the newer U8N is a tad too expensive. Will this U7N be work it over the older U8K?

U8K has better brightness and contrast over the U7N, and will likely outperform it due to the K receiving software and firmware updates that bring it close to the U8N . The U7N
cannot match the U8K in brightness and contrast. the 75" version of both sets might have similar contrast and the U7N has a newer control set for better performance than the 8K or 7K.
