Well made 65" TV with high refresh rate!
When choosing a TV there are not only a couple of things to consider such as size and price, there are more and we may not be fully aware of it. Coupled with this today there are so many brands and types of technology that it can become overwhelming to make a choice that seems simple. As I analyze this TV I will try to clarify what was unknown to me but turned out to be very useful. Let's talk about the first two things that although they are not the only ones are important, the price and the size. Regarding the price this TV is in a relatively fair price range for what it offers and its size, it has a fair value for money for a 65" TV. And speaking of size, the important thing to consider is where the TV is going to be installed and how big the space is, because the distance from the TV to where people will sit to watch it, is what determines what size TV we choose. For example, if we acquire a 75" TV for a place where people will be very close to the screen due to lack of space, they will see an unpleasant image to the point that they can see the pixels of the TV. In my case, the space between the TV and the sofa is a little more than 3 meters so 65" is perfect. There are some mathematical formulas on the internet that can be used to verify what would be the ideal size of the screen we plan to buy. The other features to check are the type of backlighting, type of color reproduction technology, TV resolution, refresh rate, and type of software or AI used to enhance the picture and sound. For us to see images on the screen there must be a light source and different layers and filters working together. This 65" Hisense U6 TV has a FALD (Full Array Local Dimming) lighting with Mini-LED technology (smaller LEDs therefore fit more and illuminate better), this allows specific areas to be illuminated and not the entire panel, giving darker blacks and better contrast in colors as well as brightness. All this is controlled by ULED technology which is the combination of Mini-LED, FALD, and QLED technology. The latter is essentially a filter through which the light emitted by the LEDs passes, balancing the green and red colors for better color reproduction. There are different types of resolutions and this TV is 4k (2160p) which is already the standard in the market. While not all content on platforms is 4K, most of it is already produced in that format, so it is more than enough resolution at this time. Regarding the refresh rate, this TV has a 144Hz rate which is great for gaming and watching sports. In simple words, the refresh rate is the ability of the TV to reproduce images per second, this TV is 144Hz which is pretty good, it is a little more complex but it is just to exemplify. A higher refresh rate allows fluidity in the images and more when watching sports or playing video games. In competitive gaming 144Hz is a standard although there are higher rates of course, so it is a very good amount of Hz. As I mentioned, to improve the image, the different technologies applied in the form of hardware are accompanied by software for better performance, such as ULED, or licenses such as Dolby Vision, HDR10, HLG, which allow us to see more vivid colors, brighter, deep blacks, more accurate colors. All this processing is also done with AI, helping to improve sound, image, and brightness. The image of this Hisense TV is great, the colors look amazing, blacks look really dark instead of that “grayish” black. The content in 4K format looks crispy and clear. With the help of HDR looks pretty good also in gaming, the TV recognizes if you are playing video games and changes the settings for a better experience. The speakers sound good, although it does lack a bit of punch in the bass the volume is more than enough. The TV works on the Fire TV platform and you need an Amazon account and the Fire TV app to set it up, the process is simple and takes a few minutes. The remote control is small and has voice assistance, as well as shortcuts to apps like disney plus, netflix and prime video, batteries are included. In the box comes only the TV, stand, power cord, remote control, user manual, and warranty documentation. No HDMI or digital audio cable is included. On the back of the TV are the HDMI inputs two 60Hz and two 144Hz, a very useful feature. There is also the antenna input (open TV or cable service), AV, Ethernet, Digital Audio, USB, and headphones. The operating system of the TV for me is fine, I have used other fire TVs and I'm a little familiar with it. The apps are easy to find and access. The settings are clear. You can customize the TV in many aspects, plus the remote control has a quick menu that I consider very helpful. In summary, this 65" Hisense U6 TV is a great option if you are looking for a TV in this size and price range. It is a TV with technology that provides a pleasant experience, vibrant and bright colors, deeper blacks, accuracy in color reproduction, it is compatible with HDR content and Dolby vision with resolutions up to 4K. This is a TV that really serves for gaming with a refresh rate of 144Hz, improved image quality and sound with AI, etc.. This product has features of high-end TVs at an affordable price, definitely a TV that I can recommend.

Fantastic picture and color quality!
This is my 3rd Hisense TV and I have to say, I’ve been impressed with the quality of all of them, especially this one. 65” is a perfect size for my master bedroom. It came nicely packaged and protected and I didn’t have to remove the plastic protective covering until after I had it hung on the wall so I got no fingerprints or anything on the screen during install which was nice. The TV fired right up and I was met with a screen to connect to my WiFi network. Once l connected, the TV took about 7 minutes for a software update. Following the software update, I was able to log in to my Amazon account, go to the App Store, and download the streaming apps I subscribe to. Very simple and easy setup with no issues. I love the picture quality of this TV. The colors are superb and the Dolby Atmos and 4K are stunning. Hisense is definitely a strong competitor among the other popular brands and there is no reason to pass this TV up. The mini led backlighting and full array local dimming really benefit the HDR performance on this TV. It also supports Dolby Vision IQ which is awesome! It has enough HDMI connections and gaming on this TV is amazing. Native 144Hz refresh rate, VRR and ALLM support make this TV fantastic to game on! Game mode plus includes auto low latency which is also great. I was a little nervous about getting a FireTV since I’ve always owned Google TV operating systems but I like the change. I am integrated into the Amazon ecosystem so I do get to take advantage of the built in smart home features which is nice. One thing I did notice was there is no Apple TV+ app in the App Store. I have a subscription to Apple TV+ and frequently enjoy some of the exclusive shows. This isn’t that much of a problem as I can stream via Airplay or just switch the input to my Apple TV. Overall this TV is excellent! Great picture, great sound, decent FireTV app. I would highly recommend this TV for anyone looking for a great TV within this particular budget bracket.

No Nonsense with this Hisense
The Hisense U6 Series Mini-LED QLED 4K Smart Fire TV offers a solid balance of features and affordability, with impressive color performance once properly adjusted. Sharpness & Upscaling One noticeable drawback is that lower-resolution content (such as 1080p or below) doesn’t appear as sharp as it does on your current 1080p TV. Some details can appear soft or slightly blurry, especially in fast-moving scenes. I recommend setting the motion setting to Smooth which helps the motion and go into the Clarity setting and turn sharpness all the way up. This seemed to do the trick. The native refresh rate is 144hz versus my current TV that is 240hz, so that is probably what I am seeing side by side. Your picture tweaks only affect the input you are watching, which is a nice feature. However, when watching native 4K content, the TV truly shines. 4K shows and movies look crisp, detailed, and immersive, taking full advantage of the Mini-LED backlighting and AI processing. Side note; when compared to my prev. Hisense TV, this one is a huge improvement. They have really stepped it up. Color Performance Out of the box, the colors may need some tweaking, (Too saturated for my liking), but once adjusted, the image quality is very impressive. Fine-tuning settings like color temperature, saturation, and local dimming helps bring out rich, vibrant tones with deep contrast. The Quantum Dot technology ensures a wide color gamut, making movies and shows look dynamic and lifelike. Sound Quality When it comes to audio performance, the Hisense U6 Series offers a nice sound experience for a flat panel, though it may not be on par with high-end sound systems. The built-in speakers provide clear dialogue and adequate bass, but for a more immersive experience, connecting an external soundbar or speaker system is recommended. The TV supports Dolby Atmos, which enhances the overall sound quality and creates a more dynamic and engaging audio landscape. Smart Features The Hisense U6 Series integrates the Fire TV platform, offering a seamless smart TV experience. The interface is intuitive and responsive, with easy access to streaming services like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu and many more. Voice control through Alexa is efficient, allowing you to search for content, control TV settings, and even manage smart home devices with ease. The app selection is vast, ensuring that all your entertainment needs are met. Pressing the power button once, turns your TV into a picture show or an aquarium. You can even add widgets to this standby screen. Audio and Video Inputs The Hisense U6 is equipped with a variety of audio and video inputs to ensure compatibility with a wide range of devices and enhance your overall entertainment experience. It includes multiple HDMI ports that support high-definition video and audio, including one HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel) port for easy connection to soundbars or AV receivers. Additionally, there are USB ports for media playback and firmware updates, a composite input for older devices, and an optical audio output for connecting to external audio systems. The TV also features built-in Wi-Fi and Ethernet ports for stable internet connectivity, ensuring smooth streaming and browsing. Overall Experience While lower-resolution content may need a couple tweaks, the Hisense U6 Series delivers excellent 4K performance with deep blacks, solid HDR capabilities, and a smooth Fire TV interface. If you primarily watch 4K content, this TV provides a great viewing experience, especially after adjusting the color settings. If you are looking to game or want an even smoother view, you may want to consider the U7 or U8 which have the higher 165hz refresh rate. (Of course at a higher cost)
