Everyone wants a TV with high picture quality, powerful sound, a fast operating system, but at an affordable price. It seems that the set of characteristics is unrealistic, but we found such a device.
But first, a few words about the company: Hisense is a leading manufacturer of flat-screen TVs, household appliances and climate control equipment.
A wide range of Hisense TVs and a variety of diagonals allow you to choose the perfect option for everyone. For example, in the U7HQ line, in addition to the 55-inch model that we are reviewing today, there is also a 65-inch version.
Design
TV Hisense 55U7HQ belongs to the middle price category, but this did not affect its design. The first thing you pay attention to is the frameless screen with anti-reflective coating, which allows you to enjoy a high-quality picture without overexposure and “light spots” under any lighting conditions. The case is enclosed in a thin frame, which adds elegance to the appearance.
The device can be hung on the wall, but the kit also includes a stand made in the form of a wave – it looks unusual and very stylish. At the same time, the diagonal of the TV is large, but not huge – the device will not overload the interior of the room and will not distract all attention to itself.
Display
The most important thing on a TV is the display. Hisense 55U7HQ uses a ULED matrix, and the resolution is 4K. The display has several key features.
First, the Hisense 55U7HQ uses quantum dot backlighting to keep every color pure and accurate.
Peak brightness is up to 600 nits. This allows you to achieve a natural reproduction of colors: the picture on the screen is rich, juicy and as close to reality as possible. The display displays over a billion colors.
Secondly, the TV supports a 120Hz refresh rate. Thanks to this, all the details on the screen remain clear, even in very dynamic scenes, such as when watching action movies or sports broadcasts.
Thirdly, it is Full Array Local Dimming Pro local dimming technology. It allows you to get high contrast , comparable to OLED matrices. True, OLEDs are prone to pixel burn-in over time, which cannot be said about ULEDs .
Finally, the Hisense 55U7HQ is IMAX Enhanced certified, which guarantees signature IMAX picture and immersive DTS sound at home.
Ergonomics
The rear panel of the Hisense 55U7HQ has all the necessary connectors: four HDMI ports, 2 USB standards (2.0 and 3.0), CL +, composite input, RJ45, audio output and RF tuner ports. Of course, there is Bluetooth and Wi-Fi for wireless connection of peripherals and the Internet .
It is important to note that Hisense 55U7HQ supports the HDMI 2.1 standard, which is required to work with the latest generation of game consoles.
Gaming
So, the model supports HDMI 2.1 , which means that you can connect PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S /X to it. When you start a game, the ALLM HDMI 2.1 function automatically puts the TV into game mode, which provides a fast response time and low latency when displaying the picture.
In addition, support for a 120Hz refresh rate ensures maximum video smoothness even in intense shooters, where dozens of details and plans change on the screen at one moment.
Sound
The Hisense 55U7HQ is equipped with two 10W speakers and supports Dolby Atmos . The built-in audio system is powerful enough so you can comfortably watch movies without connecting an additional soundbar and speakers.
At medium and maximum volumes, bass is well heard, and high sounds remain clear and do not ring. The volume reserve is enough for a small home theater .
Software
Hisense 55U7HQ is equipped with VIDAA OS – this is a closed system, you don’t have to worry about privacy . The TV supports Google TV , which means you can find all the usual programs, such as YouTube and popular online cinemas . The Smart TV interface is simple and intuitive, applications start instantly.

We can safely recommend the model to those who want to purchase a large TV with high image quality and support for the modern HDMI 2.1 standard without overpaying for a brand and unnecessary technologies.
