<\/a><\/p>\nHisense 55U7QF: Design<\/h3>\n
The Hisense U7QF Quantum 4K series TVs, according to the manufacturer’s ideas, should divert attention from global brands. Of course, Hisense, as a representative of the Chinese brand, is having a hard time entering the US markets.<\/p>\n
If the Hisense 55U7QF TV is supposed to be installed on a horizontal surface, then the stand at first seems fragile. But this is only an initial opinion. The stand is made of silver colored metal. For some markets, standard Y-feet are available and can be positioned closer to or further from the center of the screen.<\/p>\n
The screen is framed on three sides by a very narrow bezel.\u00a0The frame is wider at the bottom with the logo in the center.\u00a0Anticipating a premium TV, it gives off a bezel-less design.\u00a0The front panel is made of gray plastic.\u00a0Back panel made of black plastic.\u00a0The interface part is located on the left side of the Hisense 55U7QF TV.<\/p>\n
Remote controller<\/h3>\n
For ease of use, Hisense has designed a basic remote control for the U7QF with many key features.\u00a0But there are also remarks about the remote control.\u00a0So the Home button is disguised and you first have to search for it a little.\u00a0The main volume and channel controls are a bit small and hidden at the bottom.\u00a0Was it really impossible to copy and paste the remote control from other brands …<\/p>\n
The Menu button looks like three vertical lines (most likely, it should be so). There are four buttons at the bottom of the remote for Netflix, YouTube, Google Play, and Vudu. Sometimes the sound is muted when I press the Google Assistant button.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Smart TV platform<\/h3>\n
Hisense Q8G and Hisense H8G variants are full-featured TVs thanks to Google.\u00a0Android TV is a powerful and popular operating system for modern Smart TVs.\u00a0There is no problem with the initial setup, which takes about 15 minutes in total, including installing some of the “missing” applications.<\/p>\n
For those unfamiliar with Android TV, the look and feel is almost the same as the\u00a0Nvidia Shield\u00a0TV.\u00a0It’s practically Android on a smartphone with a flat design and flat colors.\u00a0If your TV is on Android, then it’s convenient to add your Gmail account and use the full power of the Google Play Store.<\/p>\n
For “third world countries”, the user interface of Hisense U7QF TVs is made on\u00a0VIDAA U4.0\u00a0with the\u00a0VEWD\u00a0Internet browser.\u00a0This OS is built on a Linux-like system and allows you to use some applications tailored for Android.<\/p>\n
HD and 4K playback<\/h3>\n
From the point of view of HD video performance, there are no particular complaints or negative points.\u00a0The video quality looks great, there is no problem with spotting or artifacts.\u00a0The sound is quite real, without the annoyances that sometimes happen on TVs in this price range.<\/p>\n
But global brands still give a head start to Hisense, although the HD U7QF copes with a bang.\u00a0When it comes to 4K playback, the overall quality is amazing.\u00a0Viewing the last “Jumanji …” can be noted by the magnificence of the picture.\u00a0The small details are really impressive, as are the vibrant colors.<\/p>\n
When you view the U7QF TV as a computer screen or when connected to an\u00a0Xbox\u00a0, the picture dynamics seem realistic.\u00a0And this despite the fact that technically the matrix refresh rate is 60 Hz.\u00a0For the most part, games and movies look ultra-sleek.<\/p>\n
In terms of color and contrast, the Hisense H8G uses Dolby Vision HDR and what Hisense calls the wide color gamut of quantum dots.\u00a0It helps to give video games, movies, and photographs a pleasingly colorful image.\u00a0The difference from previous Hisense models, which do not use Quantum technology or Dolby Vision HDR, is obvious.\u00a0The U7QF version is equipped with HDR 10 and HLG only.<\/p>\n
On the other hand, the U7QF’s maximum brightness is capped at 700 nits, while the standard operating brightness is 400 nits.\u00a0This figure is not as high as in the latest Samsung and LG models, but it is quite respectable and corresponds to the price.\u00a0Obviously, peak brightness is important, but it is not really the main parameter of a 4K TV.\u00a0Moreover, in the 55U7QF under review, bright colors were reproduced correctly.<\/p>\n
Sound<\/h3>\n
The built-in audio experience is positive, although it can’t compete with a separate soundbar or surround speakers.\u00a0Fortunately, the built-in sound system handles spoken dialogue beautifully.<\/p>\n
Like most TVs, the U7QF’s built-in audio isn’t nearly as convincing for surround sound.\u00a0This is directly related to the sound power of 2×10 watts.\u00a0Only DTS Virtual-X is available to the user from the “enhancers”.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Connections<\/h3>\n
The interface part is quite standard.\u00a0These are four HDMI 2.0 ports, some of them with ARC support.\u00a0A pair of USB standard 2.0, USB 3.0 is not.\u00a0The rest of the interfaces are presented in the Specifications section.<\/p>\n
Conclusion<\/h3>\n
The Hisense 55U7QF has a lot of interesting things in terms of functionality, picture quality, sound and additional features.<\/p>\n
In fact, the interface sometimes freezes or is slow, which definitely hurts the overall usability.\u00a0Overall, the U7QF series are affordable and high-quality TVs, but don’t expect QLED or OLED quality at these prices.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Almost all high-quality TVs, and we mean the flagship solutions, with all “imaginable” functions are sold at exorbitant prices.\u00a0This can be easily verified by looking at Samsung, Sony or LG.\u00a0All of these brands have premium 4K TVs, but what’s their price tag? Competing with competition, \u201con the other side of the barricades\u201d are Hisense U7QF […] More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10402,"featured_media":121126,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[641],"tags":[778],"class_list":{"0":"post-121125","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-reviews"},"acf":[],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/121125","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10402"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=121125"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/121125\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/121126"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=121125"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=121125"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=121125"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
