Top of the line TV that doesn’t break the bank
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing TV for the price. You won’t find another TV in this price range with this many features. I couldn’t be more happy! Great for gaming, movies, everything. The brightness and high frame rate are unreal.

A gamble that paid off
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this tv purely on reviews from rtings.com and across the internet. Never once seeing it in person. I’ll admit I was very nervous about this purchase. Never really heard of Hisense in the TV genre as being high end. Was skeptical especially since I don’t ever blindly purchase things. I spent close to two months researching this. I own a 55 inch Lg OLED and have been spoiled by its picture and quality and debated getting a 65 inch for my refinished basement but I was struggling justifying the cost so that lead me to this 65 inch beauty. The picture is absolutely phenomenal and all my doubts and fears have been erased just after a few days use. Xbox series x runs beautifully on this and it is built for next gen gaming. Sound quality is pretty dang good too for stock speakers. I still plan on buying a sound bar and subwoofer but honestly this is some of the better sounding stock speakers on a tv I’ve experienced. Don’t hesitate to try this brand and series model out. This is a great value ( I got it on sale for 999.99 )

It's good, but here's some faults.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There's a ton of reviews raving about the picture quality of this tv. I mostly agree with them, so I'm not going to add to the sea of comments. This review is going to be a bit of nit picking on some aspects most reviews either don't mention or don't describe well. Power cord: This was one of the first things I noticed because it's pretty short for this size of tv. It is impossible to neatly cable manage it unless the outlet is right next to the tv. In my case, it plugs into the right side of the tv, and much of the length is used just to get it back to the center if you plan to run it along a wall mount arm. Screen/frame design: the screen sits partly outside the frame, leaving a small gap around the edge of the tv between the two. This caused a fair bit of concern at first because the BB employee let the tv fall off the cart when bringing it to our van. When I opened the box, I thought maybe the screen had been shifted/damaged from the fall when I saw the gap. After a thorough inspection, I could tell the frame ran behind the screen itself, and the tv thankfully works great. Certainly not a great design choice and may have been a deal breaker if I noticed ahead of time. There were no demo units nearby, and the photos don't show this (until I uploaded mine). Cable management: I love that the tv has a built in cable management channel, but larger plugs will not be able to pass through if you also have a sound bar mounted to the VESA mount. Because it's not feasible to run the cables before mounting the sound bar, this channel should be 1/4" wider at least. One of my HDMI cables had to be ran partly outside of the channel for this reason. Standby power: This tv seems to draw a relatively substantial amount of standby power. I have a smart power strip that turns several outlets on and off based on the power draw in the control outlet. That means when I turn the tv on, it activates outlets for the sound bar and consoles. When I turn the tv off, the other devices are disabled as well to reduce parasitic power consumption. When I turn this tv off, it's still drawing enough power to keep the other outlets active, and thus their parasitic draws. The manual mentions a couple of settings that can increase standby power consumption, but disabling them doesn't help, and there's no way to fully turn off the tv that I've found (short of unplugging it, of course). Off angle viewing: This one was of of the pleasant surprises. All the reviews say off angle viewing is poor because it's a VA panel. Yes, the image quality does get reduced, but it's by no means bad unless you are at the very extremes. For the vast majority of viewing, image quality is very acceptable. Microphone switch: I love the option of a hardware switch for the tv's microphone, but turning it off causes 4 bright yellow LED's to turn on at the bottom of the tv. These will not time out and stay on until you turn the switch back on. When you turn it on, the lights turn white, but time out shortly and turn off. So it's either leave the microphone on, or cover the lights if you don't want to see them. Power button location: The power button is on the underside of the tv. If you mount a sound bar under it, putting the bar flush with the tv blocks the power button. We had to lower our bar about an inch to have access, which isn't as aesthetically pleasing. Overall, it really is a great tv like others are saying, but it's just these small things that annoy me. Changes like a wider cable channel and longer power cable would be cheap changes that make a big difference in usability. The microphone off lights is just absurd unless they were trying to making you keep it on to listen in. I would personally rather have a bezel around the edges, not only for screen protection, but to have something to grip for moving on my mount. This is my first Hisense tv, and it is a massive upgrade over my last one. I know they are seen as a budget brand, but I would expect more from a company that looks to be giving the big name brands a run for their money.

Excellent picture when it works
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Spent $1000 on this TV on sale. The TV has issues and constantly drops out of apps while watching programs. Additionally, the TV has issues connecting to my Onkyo TX-NR696 AVR or vis-a-versa.

TV screen is good for the spaces but remote is poo
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice product and quality of the screen is good too. Could be improved in terms of the remote as it still uses a legacy styles. It should use something like magic remotes of LG where navigating on screen will be easier rather than clicking so many times to reach the spot you want. Also the voice commands are poor which need to be improved. Sojnd wuality is not that great so you might need a external sound bar for better sound quality.

Great TV but get on sale for the issue stated.
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.All the bells and whistles with a fantastic image from front viewing angle, however the 120hertz mode has a sort minor black ghosting issue, however it’s extremely subtle, may not even notice it if you don’t know what to look for. Dolby vision can occasionally hiccups mid streaming on an app like Netflix (it’ll cut to black for a second and return, sometimes more than once in quick succession) though it hasn’t done that for over a year now so maybe an update sorted it out. 4k 60hertz has absolutely no issues. Do keep in mind the 65 inch differs from the lower inch models in spec. The only other complaint I have is that I noticed dirty screen effect after some time. It’s not visible unless looking at a solid color like light grey. I understand though that any tv can suffer from this. TV menu is extremely useful, however I rely on my PS5 for all my app needs now for the audio benefits. TV handles Dolby and DTS fine.

Don't HESITATE!! This one will keep selling out
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Incredible TV! I came for a Sony 75" x900f, the panel went out and it left me scrambling down the rabbit hole of researching the new 2022 TVs that are coming outm I wanted to stick with Sony because that was what I was comfortable with but when I saw all the reviews start to come out for this tv I couldn't pass up the chance to give it a try. Took the day off work, Drove 4 hours to pick this up at the only location near me that she 1, payed $20 in tolls, $40 in gas. I can comepletly say without a doubt it was worth it all. The features you get for the price point is incredible, the brightness and antiglare screen were a most as my tv sits across from a giant bay window, I have room darkening curtains but my gf likes to have them cracked for some light, I hardly notice the reflection on the picture with this one. Dolby vision IQ, HDR10+, Imax enhanced, eARC, HDMI 2.1 for gaming systems, 120HZ panel. side note I use an external sound system but the built tv speakers can get ridiculously loud. I had to stop at 50% in fear or upsetting my neighbors. Just crazy, not as clear as external speaker setup but if you just need the volume levels have no fear they deliver in spades. The android os is snappy to, remote is backlight and has 6 quick access buttons, which I never liked till now. My shield remote only has Netflix which I use but not a whole like, having buttons to bounce between the other 5 services is nice and I use it alot. Pictures from my phone don't do it justice. Oh if your on the fence between 55 and 65 do the 65 if you can I think it's double the local dimming zones that will impact the picture quality. I haven't gamed on it yet but will update when I do. So far I have had 3 solids days of streaming and 4k disc and each one is incredible. You will have to tweak the profiles to your liking.

Q: QuestionHisense website says it is Full array and Best Buy says backlit which is it?
Asked by gman.
- A:Answer I believe backlit simply describes the LED's being directly begins the tv as opposed to edge lit. Now backlit tv's have 2 versions.... direct lit and full array. Direct lit has LED's directly behind the screen and so does full array the difference being full array has zones of LED's that can be turned on and off independently....producing better blacks in dark parts and brighter whites in bright parts. Direct lit can't independently turn on and off the LED's therefore having more grey instead of black and reducing contrast and picture quality. To answer your question this tv is both backlit and full array.

Q: QuestionCan you disable the tv and remote mic I don't like that feature ? Thank you.
Asked by psfive.
- A:Answer I just figured out how to disable the mic without using the hardware switch after my streaming services stopped every time a commercial said "Hey Google" and it responded. Go into menu > settings > apps > app permissions > microphone > show system apps, then turn the microphone permission off for Google and Google Play Services. You likely only need to turn one of them off, but I killed them all together. There will be a few system apps that you can't change, but they don't seem to matter. No more constant listening in, no nag messages, no streaming interruptions, and no stupid bright lights from turning the hardware switch off. For the remote, I simply don't press the mic button. I tried the Hisense method listed above, but it required me to setup Google Assistant before I could turn it off. My suggestion to Hisense would be to let the led's time out when turning the hardware switch off.
