Product information

Can you imagine a billion colours? That's how many this Hisense TV can show thanks to Quantum Dot Colour technology. What that actually means is more lifelike colour - from the azure blue waters of a tropical reef to the delicate pinks in a sunset. The Mini-LED Pro display gives you a crisp, vivid picture that's packed full of detail. On top of that, Full Array Local Dimming technology enhances the contrast for darker darks and brighter brights. You'll have no problem seeing what's lurking in the shadows in those hair-raising horror movies. And for sound that matches the pictures, Dolby Atmos wraps you in a blanket of 3-dimensional sound, just like at the movies.

Good to know

- It supports Dolby Vision, HDR10, HDR10+ and HLG - enjoy deeper blacks, brighter whites and vibrant colours
- The IMAX Enhanced certification means you won't need to go to the cinema to get that IMAX experience
- Game Mode PRO gets the most out of your 144 Hz VRR and keeps you competitive in fast-paced titles
- Even low-res content gets a makeover with the Hi-View Engine – it uses AI for colour enhancement and 4K upscaling
- Find all your favourite content and apps on the VIDAA Smart TV platform
