Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is my first framed canvas style TV. I’ve always been a bit skeptical about how these TVs would actually look on my wall. The Hisense S7 CanvasTV doesn't disappoint at all and is very aesthetically pleasing. Mounting the TV was fairly easy. I mounted it myself. It took me about 45 minutes to measure and find the right height and placement but I was very pleased with the way it turned out and the instructions were very straightforward and easy to follow. The mount is great and is very slim. It does tilt a little bit on my wall, I'm not sure if this is normal or not. I don't see anything pushing up against the back of the TV to make it tilt and the tilt doesn't impact the viewing angle at all as it's a slight tilt. Great mount and pretty simple, just make sure you have the right tools and know how to measure to make it even. You purchase a TV like this to change the look of a wall or room and make it look elegant. This TV does that and I think the most important standout feature of this TV is the Matte display. It’s absolutely beautiful and very functional in the sense of preventing reflections. I have two side table lamps in my bedroom and there is no glare on the TV when they are on. This was not the case with my previous TV. This is especially important for the art displays. The matte TV texture gives the art a paper like look which is amazing when displaying the digital art. I have both modern game consoles and gaming on this TV is great. Especially because of the matte screen. No glare is great when you are playing first person shooters. My consoles cap at 120Hz, this TV supports up to 144Hz and has two of the HDMI 2.1 ports so you could hook up two consoles and enjoy up to 144Hz if your console supports it. The TV has Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) and Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) support. The visuals are simply amazing with the QLED panel, colors look great and gaming on this TV is excellent. Sports content looks great as well. The 144Hz panel does a great job with fast moving objects preventing “ghosting” or trailing. The brightness on the TV is great for sports and gets pretty bright and with the matte screen with no glare, sports are very enjoyable to watch. My only issue with this TV is the software. It's pretty choppy and laggy most of the time. I would have thought with this TV running the Google TV operating system that it would be snappy and quick but it does lag a bit. It's not that big of a deal but it does cost a star on my review. Currently the TV software is up to date but it still isn't as smooth as expected. This may be fixed in the future with a software update though. Overall I think this CanvasTV is a winner. I love the art work it displays, the motion sensor supporting the art on the TV and I absolutely love the matte screen and glare prevention. If you are looking for a Canvas TV, you can't go wrong with the Hisense S7 CanvasTV.

Hisense - 65" Class S7 Canvas Series Smart Google TV 4K QLED Smart Google TV with Hi-Matte Display and UltraSlim Wall Mount (2026) Imagine having both your wife and/or decorator nodding approval over your new TV. In fact, you may need to tell them they are looking at a TV. HiSense has done a very convincing job of showing visitors that you have great taste in art while also delivering a fully modern, high-quality TV loaded with desirable streaming features. This Canvas TV looks good whether you’re watching a favorite movie/TV program or simply displaying a flow of gorgeous artwork. SETUP: HiSense has included both a stand and a unique surface wall mount so you can create the complete “Art-On-the-Wall” illusion. Add the included simulated oak frame and you have a TV that hides behind art when not in use as a video display. This TV weighs approximately 60+ pounds, so a couple should have little trouble mounting it. The initial setup is as you’d expect from a modern TV. Get on Wi-Fi or hard wire via ethernet to the Internet and select the streaming apps (all free) in the Google Store you want installed. About 10 minutes later, I was ready to enter passwords and initiate my accounts for too many streaming services. HiSense had them all, and they were ready to run. I then disabled the economy mode in the Picture Setting and watched the picture brighten up. I enabled Filmmaker mode for all my inputs. I’ll eventually get around to checking if Standard or one of the Theater modes are preferred, but this ensures I’m not getting unnecessary processing that I believe only ruins the picture. You will make your own choices. HiSense’s has a comprehensive setting management menu that puts you in control. The “Art Gallery” app is where you will find settings that allow you to select which of the 1000+ art examples you want to cycle onto your screen. On initial startup, you will have a few hundred artworks, but while playing with the settings, HiSense offers to download so many more. You can add your favorite Google photo collection. You can even rotate images to correct for various photo orientations. Or, there are a few animated and AI images you can display. You can adjust the display timer to adjust how frequently artwork is changed. You can turn off the sleep timer to ensure art is continually displayed and that the motion detection does its job turning your Art Gallery on and off depending on room activity. You can pick a backup color when displaying vertical art. You can add a Mat option which adds a border in a size and color of your choice, for each painting if desired. The motion sensor can be set to detect when someone is in the room to turn the display on automatically, and you can set time limits for how long it stays active. This is a well thought-out display for art. PERFORMANCE: Although they are in separate rooms, I do have the luxury of comparing this HiSense with its brand-mate 98” Mini-LED in my theater room as well as a competitor’s OLED TV in a different living space. The differences? Mostly I revealed the lighting in these different spaces creates unique viewing obstacles. This HiSense Canvas TV must cope with a bright window shining side light during the day and annoying top lights in the evening. And it does great with its mat screen solving the glare issue. Also, during the day, this TV serves up constant passive entertainment through its rotating art collection. The artwork lighting settings are separate from the video settings. This allows for a thoughtful illumination of the artwork for a realistic presentation. Nicely done. Compared to top-line technologies like OLED and mini-LED, this TV has an ever-so-slightly narrower contrast range and a less intense color palette. But it is nonetheless a colorful, detailed, high-performing TV that does something those other TVs can’t do. It disappears into the room and makes my wife smile whenever she enters the room. This is what’s called a high Wife Acceptance Factor (WAF). I was surprised at how much I liked it, and once you settle down to a program and quit trying to nitpick those subtle differences, you realize this is a great example of a 4K QLED TV, using Google TV for interacting with apps, along with genuine Game Mode enhancements, and no distractions around it. Just a screen on a wall. For most TV use scenarios. the range of controls in the Sound Menu allows for a variety of sound contours. This TV even uses the microphone in the Remote Control to automatically calibrate the TV sound for your particular room. There is an effective sound level control to limit wide volume swings. The sound, with all those various settings will satisfy most people. I’m not so easy to please. I added a premium soundbar because I really like my action, sci-fi, and thriller programs to fill the space with a dynamic sound. The HiSense is very nice, but it lacks the bass authority to convincingly convey the drama I want. SUMMARY: As a permanent art display installation, the HiSense S7 Canvas is a 5/5 success. It’s flexible, colorful, and easily achieves the promise it makes to contribute to your home or office decor. It is easy to set up and conceals a very capable TV that delivers resolution, speed, color and features rivaling TVs that don’t offer a second role in your living spaces. This level of television display and audio competence doesn’t quite match that of top-of-the-line TVs I’m familiar with. It’s a bit of a trade off. Those premier TVs generate more heat while they require more power because they add a layer of extra lighting and more processing. That’s not compatible with a TV that hugs the wall and is on for extended hours, day after day. At no point was I disappointed with a purely TV viewing experience, but a customer who demands the absolute state-of-the-art image should be aware of the compromise needed to also serve as a art display. You need to go see this TV and see where it fits in your home. It’s a beautiful picture that I can recommend. The art is fabulous.

I’m giving the Hisense 65" S7 Canvas TV 5 stars, mostly because I can’t give it a 4.8 or 4.9. It is not perfect, but it is easily one of the best-looking TVs I’ve had on my wall, and it made a much stronger impression than I expected. I wall mounted this in the bedroom using the included UltraSlim wall mount. Overall, the install was pretty painless. I was replacing a regular wall-mounted TV, and I was able to line up the studs with the mount without much drama. I really liked that the wall mount is one solid piece. That made it much easier to level compared to some frame-style TVs that use separate mounting brackets. Kudos to Hisense there, because getting one of these thin art TVs level can be the difference between “that looks amazing” and “that is going to annoy me forever.” Actually hanging the TV was a little trickier. The hooks on the TV have to line up with these claw-style pieces on the mount, and because the TV is 65 inches and the hooks are closer together, I needed my wife’s help to get it seated correctly. The TV itself is manageable, but lining everything up by yourself would be a pain. I also wish there were more cable management grooves on the back. My wall has a power outlet and smurf tube from my old setup, and while the final result still looks fantastic, I wasn’t able to route the HDMI cable and power cable as cleanly as I would have liked. Once it was up, though, wow. The TV looks so much better than having a normal flat panel sticking out from the wall. The included frame pieces fit together nicely and feel much higher quality than I expected. I do wish there were more frame color options. The included teak looks good, and white (and like a walnut) is available, but for something that is meant to blend into bedroom decor, I would love to see some more fun color choices. The hi-matte screen was another pleasant surprise. We have three windows directly across from the TV in our bedroom, and this screen made a huge difference with glare and natural light. It does not magically make the TV look exactly like a real painting, but it gets closer than any art TV I’ve personally used. For the first time, I looked at one of these TVs and thought, “Okay, this is actually getting close to the dream.” The matte finish really helps sell the art effect, and it also makes regular TV watching more enjoyable during the day. Picture quality is excellent. The first thing we did was turn off the motion smoothing settings, because I cannot stand when movies look like a live soap opera. It’s actually nauseating. Fortunately, my wife an I are on the same page there because according to all the marriage counselors I know the biggest reason couples get divorced is money differences, #2 is actually TV motion smoothing preference incompatibility. Once that was turned off and the TV was set up more naturally, the picture looked amazing. Colors are rich, Dolby HDR looks fantastic, and basketball and baseball looked great. This is one of those TVs where I kept noticing little picture quality improvements right away. The built-in sound is thin, but honestly, that is what I expect from a TV that is around an inch thick. It works, but I use a separate sound system and would recommend doing the same if sound matters to you. Google TV is fine, but it is not really my thing. I set it up and tried it because I use plenty of Google services, but I still prefer using my own external streaming box. I don’t love the ads, the free TV clutter, or the feeling that the home screen is trying to push too much at me. I like a cleaner setup with just my apps. That said, the included remote is excellent. It feels premium, the size is right, the buttons make sense, and it honestly feels like someone put thought into it. It is one of the better TV remotes I’ve used in years. My biggest complaint is the art mode behavior. From what I can tell so far, when the TV turns off, it wants to go into the gallery/art mode unless you fully power it down. That is a problem in a bedroom. When a sleep timer turns things off at night, I want the TV off, not glowing artwork shining in my face. I also use an external streaming box, and right now the CEC behavior is not turning the TV off the way I want. The box powers down, the TV says it lost signal, and then the artwork comes on after a short time. I still need to try another HDMI cable and keep digging through settings, but this really should be easier. There needs to be a clear setting to stop the TV from automatically launching art mode when I do not want it. Even with that issue, I still think this TV is fantastic. The picture is incredible, the matte display is a huge win, the frame looks great, and the wall-mounted result is clean and high-end. For a living room, hallway, or anywhere you actually want the always-on art look, this thing is a home run. For a bedroom, just be aware that the art mode behavior may take some figuring out. Overall, this is a phenomenal TV. If Best Buy allowed half stars, I’d probably land just under a perfect score, but since they don’t, I’m comfortable giving it 5 stars. The positives easily outweigh my complaints.

When mounted flat on a wall, it can indeed look like a work of art when it’s displaying artwork or photos. Watching TV and movies looks impressive as well as fast action game play. Navigation of menus is snappy, and options for picture settings are many. The lighted buttons on the remote have a very nice tactile feel. It comes with feet if you can’t mount it on the wall, and you can buy and use a VESA wall mount if the included “flat to the wall” mount doesn’t work for you. Overall, build quality feels sold and it exceeded my expectations for an edge lit TV, but it has one quirk that needs to be fixed. For more detailed specifications and installation guidance, I strongly suggest downloading the owner’s and installation manuals from Hisense’s website. Pros: Stunning Up-scaled Performance: Crisp, vibrant image processing that allows clean 1080p source material to look sharp and can rival native 4K content. The matte screen finish does a good job of absorbing harsh ambient reflections across the screen, but it doesn’t eliminate them completely. See photos, SW still Rich Color Depth: Delivers excellent color saturation and texture detail on high-quality 4K streamed content, artwork and photos. Cons: Frustrating USB Storage Compatibility: Fails to read standard, out-of-the-box thumb drives (tested with both 32GB and 256GB SanDisk models) that worked flawlessly on my TCL QM7 Google TV. Because the TV is designed to mount completely flush against the wall, accessing the side inputs for cables or drive swapping can be difficult. Hiding the power and any HDMI cables behind it could be a problem because it’s so flat and hugs the wall so close with the included mount. After following the instructions for removing the TV from the box, my wife and I attached the included feet (easy to do), put the batteries in the remote and turned it on. No problems were found. I would recommend doing that with any TV before mounting it on the wall to make sure it works. There’s a thick plastic protecting film covering the entire screen and some foam strips at the top to protect it when mounting it on the wall. See photos that show the feet, the film, and strips on the screen. The film is very reflective compared to the actual screen; I wouldn’t leave it on as a screen protector as it would defeat the purpose of the hi-matte screen Hanging this TV is a two-person job. The TV includes a mounting kit to hang it flat on the wall. It includes a mounting plate, two hinged hanger plates that attach to the TV, screws and anchors, and instructions. You can mount it with included hardware on concrete block to studs behind drywall. They don’t recommend anchors in drywall alone. I drilled a couple of holes in the studs, per instructions, and used the heavy screws that came with it. Just two screws and I’m sure it’s not going anywhere. Hanging it took more effort than we thought. You must fold the hinge wires all the way out, and it’s still hard to see behind the TV and line it up. Once you do, it folds down and snaps into place with magnets. You will want to plug the power cord and everything else in before you hang it. If not, be careful about tilting it up from the bottom. Pull from the center and not the corners or you could damage the screen. Those magnets are very strong. Adding the included teak frame was very easy and I think it makes it look like a real piece of art when artwork is displayed on it. Setup was straightforward, connect to your router, then sign in with a Google account. If you don’t have one, you’ll need to create one (or make a dedicated account just for the TV). I used the out-of-the box default settings for picture and sound for the first tests and then tried various presets and tweaked the picture to taste. With defaults the TV showed shadows and didn't crush blacks in movies but did in some TV shows depending on the provider. Having said that, I was impressed with the defaults. Colors were spot on, and the contrast made things pop nicely. However, in some TV shows - movies, photos and artwork, I thought the color seemed slightly over-saturated at times. Picture wise you can set the TV to change picture presets based on content, and if the content, say a movie, includes picture setting info, say “Film Maker”, it will use that. Then there’s Dolby Vision and its settings that you can cycle through. You can enable and disable those features separately. Manual settings include everything from color and contrast to noise reduction and sharpness. Lots of options here. I found myself going through the presets to find one I liked per movie. Be it streaming or Blu-ray. Not so much on TV shows. Keep in mind that streaming quality can vary greatly between providers and how much data compression their data stream uses. No luck in testing the digital tuner for off the air broadcasts due to my rural location. That goes for all my TVs. Connecting a PC to play games and general use looked good as well, Most TVs I’ve hooked a PC to go into a game mode that usually over saturates the colors and blows out the highlights, this one doesn’t. Auto game – PC mode can be disabled. The 144 Hz refresh rate (must be enabled) lived up to that with a couple of games and benchmark apps. Note: this TV is edge lit and doesn’t have local dimming zones that move with the content. My TCL QM7 does and I think this TV more than holds it own with it I think the auto lighting sensor gets the picture too dark at the max setting, however that can vary depending on the current picture preset and its settings. It also sets the color temperature as well. This feature can be disabled. I tested the TV’s color gamut via PC with my datacolor Spyder X Pro. It delivers 97% DCI-P3 and 100% sRGB There are apps for downloading artwork, and pressing the photo button brings up included online art. You can add your own photos or artwork through apps, or plug in a USB thumb drive to view photos, videos, and music. Unfortunately, I never got this to work as it failed to read standard, out‑of‑the‑box thumb drives (tested with 32 GB and 256 GB SanDisk models) that worked flawlessly on my TCL QM7 Google TV. I tried reformatting them to NTFS and FAT 32 EX, no luck. After letting the TV format one, my PC couldn’t read it. The TV behaves like a big Android tablet, writing its own format to the drive, so it seems you can only save content from the TV to it. Hisense needs to fix this ASAP. Audio wise, no bass, sounds boxy and doesn’t get very loud. I highly recommend a soundbar at the very least. Soundbar and sub-woofer, even better. I connected my Klipsch soundbar and sub with no problem, and it made the expected difference. I really like the remote. Even though some of the buttons feel rubbery, I’m certain they have switches under them and not just the usual carbon coated feet that make the circuit when they contact the traces on a printed circuit board. This gives you tactile feedback that those don’t, a click feel. The buttons are back lit, and you have some that take you directly to apps. It’s plastic but looks and feel solid. Voice input works well for content search but can’t control power or inputs unless paired with Alexa or Google Home. I used a Canon 90D on a tripod to take my photos and color temp set to 6500K on the TV and camera. I wanted to get the most accurate photos I could. I took photos of streamed TV shows, movies, 4K Blu-ray and FHD movies, photos and artwork. I picked the best of them. Click on a thumbnail to get the larger photo, right click the larger photo and open it in a new tab to get full resolution. This usually works for any photos. You can get apps to screen cast from mobile devices or Flickr and such, but beware as some of these apps are subscription-based and sometimes pricey. I think anyone buying this TV for what it offers will be very satisfied with it. Highly recommended it despite the USB Thumb Drive issue.

This is my first Canvas TV and I am blown away by the look and performance of it. Set-Up: The set up for the TV was straight forward, all the instructions are simple to follow and the mount is included. Just make sure you have a stud finder and you should be fine, it took me roughly an hour to install. The hook style installation works perfectly so the tv sits flush, the hooks will give you roughly two inches when setting the TV on the mount this makes the installation extremely easy. When installing it you will need 2 people to mount and DO NOT SET THE TV DOWN ON THE GROUND as there is a light/occupancy sensor on the bottom left hand side. Art display: To be blunt I was wowed, I did not expect the art to look so good. All the pictures were rich and detailed; the adaptive lighting and hue setting makes sure the pictures look good no matter the place or time of day. Hisense includes a wonderful art gallery app that comes preloaded with 1000 + pictures to fit any space, you can even easily add your own photos through the app for a personal feel. The matte display in gorgeous from any angle, even in my game room where there are 2 huge windows I could see the display from everywhere. The only time I saw any reflections on the screen was when I left the blinds open. Picture Quality: The picture quality is good, the S7 includes Dolby, HDR10 + and adaptively adjust everything based on room lighting. All HDR content is bright and punchy, the upscaling does a good job whether you’re gaming or just watching shows. I did notice when watching non-HDR content the colors are a bit muted, this has to do with the matte display and its done for the “Art” look. The blacks aren’t OLED black but I didn’t notice much of a grey hue to them off angle which is great. Sound: When it comes to sound the S7 shines in the place it matters, the dialogue. I could hear everything crisply when watching movies or sports events, now don’t get me wrong you won’t get seat shaking bass in movies, but there is nice low-end bass. I also would give excessive bass just so I don’t have to rewind or ask someone next to me “what did they just say”. Connectivity: The S7 Canvas TV has all the ports you could ask for 2 HDMI at 4k 144 and 2 at 4k 60 htz, along with audio out and 2 USB spaces. Now the E-arc port is limited to 60htz but keep in mind this is a canvas TV. The TV does have WiFi 5 and I was getting over 100 Mbps down which is more than enough for any 4k viewing. You also get access to airplay and apple home which is huge so you can use this TV as a hub for just about everything. Software: The canvas S7 has some of the best software in the market, not only do you have access to android TV but you can also jump into the apple eco system with apple home and Airplay 2. You can even add a camera to use the TV for video calls if you choose. The software is very fluid and there was no shuddering or freezing. I loved that fact that when I made changes to picture presets, I could apply them across every port, instead of having to adjust each output individually. You also get adaptative settings for sound, screen brightness and scene selection depending on the type of content you’re watching. The S7 does a good job at scene selections, when watching movies or playing games, it made the correct adjustment every time. When it came to lighting adjustment the S7 does a good job adjusting the brightness and hue depending on the surrounding lighting, it does take a few seconds though. As mentioned before the sound quality is already good when it comes to dialogue but running adaptative sound makes it even better. The S7 even has a motion detector, so Art displays only when you’re in the room. This works great as the TV can tell if you are in the room and the screen turns off if you have left for a certain amount of time. I did notice that if you put something close to the left of the sensor though the TV doesn’t recognize when you have re-entered the room. Overall I was impressed with everything the Canvas S7 offers, the picture is great and sound is excellent. The Art gallery is wonderful and the amount of included content makes sure the S7 will fit every house. Hisense includes everything you from the hanging mount to over a 1000 art pictures and the frame. I was originally going to give the Canvas S7 a 4/5 stars because the bass was a little low and the Prime app was showing a bit of discoloration during basketball events however a new update that rolled out fixed everything. Now don’t get me wrong I do wish the eARC was 4K 120/144 but besides that I really can’t find any issues with the TV.

The packaging of this TV was very good. I like the additional foam and protection they provided to make sure the screen was not damaged during transit. The overall setup was fairly simple with the provided quick start guide. I just mounted the TV and when it started logged into my google account and I was up and running. It took about 10 min to install the Android tv. The frame that was included was a little hard to get all of the corners to align but once done I do not imagine taking it off, so it is not a big deal. There was an update a few hours later and the tv rebooted. I liked the art mode had so many options from the images to the matte look and color. When tweaked it truly looks like a piece of art on the wall. If you do not like the modern, realistic, etc options included you can upload your own image and really have any picture you want. I chose to do a collage of my family from our last cruise and that made it feel more like home. Use: In use as a picture, it has a nice clear picture. There is no flickering and with the lights on in my office you cannot see any glare. When I leave the room, it does tone down the brightness. I was concerned this would be really weak, but it really pushes a decent number of nits considering all the uses it offers. I did connect my Xbox console, and it did activate game mode and I was able to play my Xbox at 120fps which is the max it can drive. The screen was clear and kept up with the action very well. I liked how it can go from a picture on the wall to a gaming tv just by turning on my xbox. When done it goes back. The remote included is nice and easy to use. The backlit buttons are a great touch at night so I can see what I am pressing. The sound while good for a tv is excellent. I found connecting my soundbar to be a better source since it includes an earc port. I do like that if I pulled that away that the sound is decent enough on it’s own. When messing with the picture modes I like that it includes a more color accurate Theater day and Theater night mode where previously you would have to pay to have your tv calibrated to get these modes and they are standard. The color accuracy was slightly warmer vs cooler which is preferred. There is some blooming, but it is minimal for the type of tv this is. Moving on to sports. I liked the vibrant color of the local baseball game I just watched yesterday and keeping up with the NBA playoffs showed a punchy accurate picture that handled the motion well. There is a soap opera effect from the motion handling settings all tv’s have so I turned that off and the picture looked more natural to me. The only real con was it is hard to get the cables really flush when mounting with the included slim mount but I just swapped mounts with something that has a little more room in the back and I was able to get the cables tucked properly. I would recommend this if you want the TV to serve as a nice piece of artwork or a large digital picture frame as part of your décor. Ultimately what you’re paying for here is that main benefit. I would definitely recommend this TV since it can handle all the other needs a living room tv would need to serve. What a great concept.

The slim body and picture quality are amazing. Comes with a frame for the tv as well and it really looks like a picture on my wall!

The selection of free art is great, set up was pretty easy with the included mount, and the matte finish works great in my pretty sunny living room. Plus when itsnot being used it looks like a painting above the fireplace instead of a big black box.

Beautiful TV, great picture.... Picture quality; is great sound quality; I do not know, I'm using a sound bar. Brightness: Great, part of the beautiful picture. Love; the way this TV hangs flat on the wall, it looks like a picture hanging on the wall. i think it looks much better than the TV we had before that was off the wall a few inches. The TV has a wide field of view, so it being flat on the wall, it still looks great from every seat in our living room. The Bad; No one tell you that "for it to hang flat on the wall", you will most likely have to make a hole in the wall right where the wires come out. If you are going to only use WiFi, then this will not apply to you. but it looks great, i would do it again.

For an affordable-tier brand, I was pleasantly surprised by this TV. I have another lower cost (three-letter) TV brand, and it's almost unbearable to use because it has the processor of an 80's digital watch in it -- incredibly slow to start up, painfully slow to navigate menus and apps occasionally crash. This Hisense is super responsive, modern menus, perfectly acceptable image (obviously not top tier but you're not paying those prices), and the matte screen really works well to reduce glare in a bright room. The art screensaver is very nice, but no one is going to do a double take -- it still looks like a TV displaying pictures of art simply because of the backlighting. Was also looking at my usual go-to Samsung, but the Hisense seems to be 80% of the performance at 50% of the price. All in all, very happy with the purchase and would buy another Hisense any time!

Very happy with our purchase. Set up was easy and how it looks on the wall/the quality of picture we are very content with the price point.

I love this tv. It's slim, great picture and I love that you get photos to use and not have to pay for it. All in all a great tv.

I must say I really love the Hisense - 65" Class S7 Canvas Series Smart Google TV. I have another popular brand of Frame TV and think the Hisense is much better packed with more features. First, it comes with everything unlike other brands. Most importantly, you get an extensive art gallery included with the TV. You don’t have to pay a subscription like others charge for. The picture quality is spectacular. What I really like is how the art mode functions. You can set quiet hours so the Art does not come on at certain times. This is great when mounted in the bedroom. You can set it to turn off when there is no activity in the room for a set period of time. There are many customizations that make sets this TV apart. I really like the google TV platform. You get all the apps from google and don’t have to add a firestick, Roku or other media player. Its built in! The remote on this TV is great. Bigger than most but very comprehensive. I like the keys are backlit making it easy to see at night. The TV comes with mounting brackets, frame, and art work. It mounts flush to the wall and has many ports including 4 HRMI, 1 Optical and 2 USB. Did I mention it has google voice assist. There are so many features that makers this TV the best on the market.

TL;DR: SETUP: The Hisense 65” Class S7 CanvasTV is easy to unbox and includes a slim wallmount, so you don’t need a separate VESA mount unless you want tilt or articulation. USE: Solid for everyday streaming and TV watching; performance varies depending on the app and source. USABILITY: Menus are simple to navigate. The remote is basic but functional. OVERALL: A good/fancy budget TV with a clean mounting solution, ideal for secondary rooms or simple setups. REVIEW: I’ve been using the Hisense CanvasTV for just over a week. Overall, it’s a solid budget option that covers the basics well, especially with it being a frame-style TV and with the included slim mount. Setup was straightforward. Unboxing is simple, and the TV comes with its own slim wallmount, which is a nice touch. It makes for a clean, low‑profile installation that fits flush against the wall and eliminates the need for a separate VESA bracket. I don’t need tilt or motion functions, but if you do, you still may want the additional mount. Getting it up on the wall is quick, and the TV sits close to the surface for a clean look. Picture quality is good for everyday viewing. Streaming shows, sports, and movies looks fine, especially in a moderately lit room. I have enjoyed using it and am happy to have it. The interface is fine, but not fast. Menus are easy to understand, and apps are accessible, but the OS can feel a bit sluggish at times. The remote is basic, but doesn’t feel premium, and the button layout has a bit of a learning curve. If you use a streaming device, it won’t be an issue at all. I typically use Apple TV. Sound is on par with what I would expect. Dialogue is clear enough, but if you want full, immersive audio, get a soundbar. I use them for all my TVs. Overall, the Hisense CanvasTV is a good value, especially with the included slim mount. It looks good and functions well.

This is my first time reviewing a “picture frame” TV so bear with me here. Out of the box, nothing fancy to note. This is typical TV packaging with the typical high-level specs and app advertisements on the outside and a boat load of styrofoam on the inside to protect the TV. The TV comes with a stand (though I can’t imagine using that), warranty, instructions, a much larger than needed remote, it’s own mount, power cord, and cord holders. First things first… the entire reason you’d ever buy this TV is to mount it. A picture frame TV on a stand or with a sound bar would be unbelievably tacky, so I’m not even sure why they include the stand. Theoretically you can utilize this TV without the frame and put it on the stand, but at that point just buy another TV. The mount itself is relatively easy to mount, all things considered and is designed specifically for this to lay as flush as possible. Fantastic, and I’m glad they included it. My only gripe here is that when you mount the TV, and actually physically put it on the mount hooks, the TV (as it’s supposed to) drops down about 5”. This was a big swing and a miss as we had to undo our original mount, raise the mount (new holes in the wall of course) and reset it. Once mounted, it’s sturdy and locked in but that issue was a bit of a hassle. Next is the power cord struggle… I’m not quite sure that they were going for here, nor really how to solve for this but the entire point of this TV is to lay flat on the wall and appear as art/a picture. You wouldn’t want a cord hanging out the bottom or off to the side but the TV utilizes near all of it’s space in the back so assuming you’re plugging this in behind the TV like I did, the power cord will more often than not, push the TV away from the wall, thus defeating the purpose of laying it flat against the wall. It’s not the end of the world for us but keep in mind, you’ll have to get incredibly crafty and creative to power this on while keeping it flat. Once mounted and powered, you can attach the magnetic framing. This was pretty dang easy and comes in a wood-looking panel, though it’s metal, and there’s alternative colors you can buy from Hi-Sense online if you’d like black, or white, etc. Upon powering on, you’ll go through the typical privacy rules. This is an Android/Google TV so they get very hell-bent on you signing in through their platforms so they can get your data and sell for more accurate advertising. I opted out of that and still have a fully functioning TV, though they do gatekeep free channels behind their sign-in process, so you would have to exchange your data for that purpose if you wanted. It comes with the typical apps installed like Disney/Netflix and has probably around 100 different art pieces you can select, add to your favorites, and even upload some of your own very easily if you’d like. The choices amor art are fine-good and even have some moving portraits, and some include sound. I prefer the moving portraits as I’m never sold on having a QLED TV have a single static picture on it for longer than needed to avoid burn-in. The TV from afar looks great with the framing. The video itself on playback of shows/movies is solid as well. The audio leaves a bit to be desired but after I changed a bunch of the settings, set the audio to be adaptive, tuned it to the acoustics of the room, etc it was much better, though nobody is going to watch Mad Max on here and feel like they’re in an IMAX theatre, but that’s fine. All said, it’s a real good TV but not perfect due to the small things. A tad pushy on the data sharing, a bit annoying to keep flat while powered on, kinda my error on the mount issue so I won’t dock for that, a larger than needed remote, subpar audio, needing to power the TV off 2x every time to actually turn it off as 1 click just initiates art mode, and there’s a very bright power indicator light that isn’t ideal if you put this in your bedroom at night. Again, a ton of small things that are easily improvable for future models but just not quite perfect yet.

This is my first TV since owning a high end OLED tv so I have to say I was spoiled with picture and true black color. I decided to go with this QLED model as my OLED had some pretty serious burn-in such as channel logos etc. I chose the QLED because although they don’t have as great of a picture, they don’t get burn-in. To add, my last TV had the art gallery feature on it which I loved. When I unboxed and hung (the tv does come with a flat mount system but I already had one) it took me no longer than 10 minutes to set up with all my streaming networks. I had YouTube TV which is a Google service, and once I added that everything synced up. I still had to add a few other services but that displays a QR code so again, a very quick and easy setup. The TV walks you through how you want it to act such as artwork displays etc. After my channels were set, it was time for picture adjustments. I was extremely surprised on how you can adjust the blacks and color on it. I feel it comes close to an OLED with all the adjustments. The settings it came with were not good so adjusting is necessary. Sound- I can’t comment on this as I hooked it into my stereo with the ARC HDMI. The art gallery is beautiful! I have mine set up so it rotates artwork. So far I haven’t seen the same image twice. The tv does come with a light wood frame but I didn’t put it on because I like the black frame look better. Apparently, different frames will be made available soon. Overall, I feel like you can get a similar tv for less money. The art show appears to be the cost difference and although I love it, feel it could’ve been a bit cheaper which is why the one star deduction. I love the tv, the remote lights up at night so you can see the buttons and is very easy to use. The frame is very minimalist and is super easy to set up.
