Bought this as a Secondary Bedroom TV for HDR OTT Binging and it serves the intended use quite nicely albeit with a fair share of cons which make it unviable from being a blind choice. First I will talk about the cons and then the pros of it .Please note my review is only for the 55 inch and doesn’t represent the other sizes of this TV
Cons =
1. Bad viewing angles. I thought I knew what to expect from a budget VA panel until I saw this one. My Crystal AUE700 looks like an IPS panel next to it. Its bad enough that it can hardly accommodate 3 peoples’ field of view without starting to lose contrast. My relative actually joked about me getting a projector free with the TV as that is what it looks like from an acute angle which btw the Crystal doesn’t despite it being a cheaper VA TV from 3 years prior.
2. Bad motion control despite a ton of motion calibration settings provided for fine tuning. Again the Crystal’s motion is more defined and crisp with zero judder despite it being a 60 hz panel compared to this 120 hz panel. While you can remove the persistent judder with my tested settings given below, the same cannot be said about the motion definition especially in 24p content. Its good enough but definitely below average. Hisense is just not known for good motion control and a quick Google search will confirm this for you . See the attached pics for the judder recorded by using rtings judder testing methodology and the corrected results without it. Btw 60 fps content is definitely above average with no Judder.
3. Vidaa is just plain bad. Barely has the essential streaming apps and no proper media center for USB playback. That USB 3.0 port cant even be used to its potential owing to the lack of a single 3rd party video player app like VLC on its appstore and also it doesn’t support any form of side loading apps. Huge Video files just won’t open citing,”unsupported format”. I got a Fire Cube 3 to go with it and got no qualms, but definitely miss the native refresh rate for easier processing in some apps.
4. Average processing and a bit of banding in SDR
5. A bit of Grid Dirty Screen effect and clouding on two corners. The clouding is basically the opposite of Vignetting. Luckiky the Grid DSE is not easily visible unless watching white fullscreen shots or skies. The clouding on the other hand is distracting in watching sports. However none of these show up in HDR content owing to the good local dimming control.
Pros =
1. Outstanding colour coverage and geeat colour volume . Cannot see any obvious errors with tone mapping either. BT 2020 content looks outstanding especially HDR10 and HDR10Plus . Dolby Vision is a bit darker than the TV is capable of but still will appeal to purists planning to watch in a moderately lit room .
2. Gradients look a bit better in Dolby Vision compared to HDR and overall dynamic range of high APL scenes is unheard of at this price, atleast to me.
3. Supports DTS which Samsung and LGs dont support.
4. Brightness is amazing. I keep it below 70 for YouTube HDR videos as I get headache from longer sessions in a well lit room
5. Contrast and dark details nearing Oled territory. It does have blooming around bright objects in a moderately lit room but then again who doesn’t. The Sony X90K has worse blooming and while that one is distracting this one is not. Anime on it looks like Oled, period.
6. Reflections are no problem unless you’re watching dark content in a well lit room during which its amazing contrast makes the TV reflective. Not something you can fault it with .
7. Has a 3.5 mm jack for older sound systems and even newer formats like dolby atmos and digital plus sound great with clear dialogue on my old 2.1 Samsung speakers. Even costlier TVs won’t bag you this feature as they try to push their overpriced soundbars on you.
8. Got it installed in 2 days tops with good followup from their local partners. The technician assured me not to worry about warranty and gave me their local shop address 5 mins away from where I live in case of any problem. Lets hope it doesn’t come to that.
Finally here are my settings that you should definitely give a shot.
SDR = Filmmaker, Backlight – According to your needs. Local dimming -either off or high depending on whether its sports or movies and shows ( If sports with Local Dimming looks good to you ,then go for it ). Brightness -50.Contrast -50.Colour -53. Sharpness -0. Ultra Smooth -Custom, J 2, B 0. Nosie Reduction -off or low. Mpeg Noise reduction -off or low. Colour temp -Warm 1. Colour Gamut -Auto Gradient -off ( masks details for smoother fake gradient ). All other processings off
HDR = Filmmaker, Backlight – According to your needs. Local dimming -High. Brightness -50.Contrast -77.Colour -53. Sharpness -0. Ultra Smooth -Custom, J 2, B 0. Nosie Reduction -off. Mpeg Noise reduction -off. Colour temp -Warm 1. Colour Gamut -Auto.Gradient -off. Dynamic Tone-Mapping -On.All other processing off
HDR10Plus = HDR10Plus .Backlight – According to your needs. Local dimming -High. Brightness -50.Contrast -77.Colour -53. Sharpness -0. Ultra Smooth -Custom, J 2, B 0. Nosie Reduction -off. Mpeg Noise reduction -off. Colour temp -Warm 1. Colour Gamut -Auto.Gradient -off. All other processing off
Dolby Vision = Dolby Vision Dark. All other Same to the HDR10Plus profile.
Conclusion = OLED like in Anime ( with great motion definition ) , Outstanding in HDR and HDR10Plus , Great for SDR movies with local dimming on. Good for Dolby Vision, Meh for News and Sports ( Not that great Upscaling and motion and clouding in sports along with sad viewing angles )
Delivered above and beyond on certain expectations and was below par in certain scenarios. Outstanding, Unheard of value for High Bitrate content ( apart from the meh 24p motion ). However owing to the poor viewing angles and mediocre SDR upscaling, not so easy to recommend for a primary TV. If it meets your needs like mine, Just go for it.

Ordered the TV at Amazon pre-booking offer with 4 year warranty at 70k. Warranty was the main selling point to us. Can get high refresh rates and other listed features at lesser price point with other brands and same price points with LG & Samsung.
Check out TCL P635 pro/T6G with 120 Hz accelerator, 65″ at 55k.
However after the TV is delivered neither Hisense or Amazon is owning up to providing the 4 year warranty and I am now left with a 2 year warranty note. Amazon says warranty offer is by Hisense, Hisense says warranty offer is an Amazon offer. I am just deprived of new TV pleasure.
Even after the pre-book offer, Hisense is giving a 3 year warranty for purchases but you will not have a proof for it. You can purchase similar features TCLs (55-60k) or Toshiba (60k) or Hisense U7H (54k) at much cheaper price and take third party extended warranty offers at 5k for 3 years, will give you a much higher peace of mind at significantly lower spend.
Whatever the technology is, say Mini LED in this case for brightness and improved local dimming, Hardware performance matters, you can get equally good dimming zones and much better brightness with other brands at a slightly lower/similar price range but with better brand presence and proven hardware quality. Do check many international video reviews if you don’t trust me, or go to a physical store to compare picture quality side by side.
Anti Glare is bad on this TV, daytime viewing is average. Brightness is also Average. Check the photo I uploaded with the review. I can see myself taking a photo on the screen 🙁
Blacks are only slightly better than half priced 65″ TVs. Side view Angles are terrible, so not really capable of viewing by multiple people and movie nights are out of question.
On high refresh rates, OTT platforms don’t support higher than 60 Hz. PS4 doesn’t support 120 Hz, only PS5 and XBOX X will take you to 120 HZ but your 95% use case will be 120 Hz at 1080 p, which TCL’s gaming acceleration can provide at much lower cost (75% of U7K price). So this is really a marketing pitch and not gives much with current content and gaming console levels.
True, we can argue about near future availability of 120 Hz content/games but then you would want a proven Hardware brand that can last 5+ years and still says ahead/comparable in terms of newer tech in this timeframe atleast.
Summary, bought this TV due to 4 year OEM warranty offer, didn’t get it on proof hence regret my purchase now. Features wise TV is high on paper, much lower in reality. Better to Buy other 65″ LED TVs at 60% cost, won’t be losing much in value. Will explore my return options with Amazon.
Edited – Received the 4 year warranty confirmation on email from Hisense, hence added 2 stars.
Local dimming feature can only be used after disabling clear motion. Blacks improved slightly after turning Local dimming to High, but at cost of motion performance.
Will keep the TV.
