Hisense - 65" Class S7 Canvas Series Smart Google TV 4K QLED Smart Google TV with Hi-Matte Display and UltraSlim Wall Mount (2026)

We put the tv above our fireplace and it looks beautiful. It was easy to mount. We knew that it would not sit flush on the wall due to the rock. It still looks amazing. It also comes with everything you need including the frame and free art. We have gotten many compliments on the way the tv looks above the mantle.

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.

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.
