Mini LED with Quantum Dot Experience colour like never before. Hisense TVs are capable of reproducing over one billion different shades of colour, allowing you to enjoy colour in its most authentic and genuine form. Motion is decent on the U7K with no obvious issues encountered playing 24fps material which is displayed with the correct pulldown applied, and 50Hz broadcast is also decent with no obvious frame skipping or micro stutters seen. Adding in motion interpolation and the U7K does look smooth, but there are also visible artefacts seen around fast-moving objects. Soap Opera Effect is also seen when using any of the modes that add interpolation. This TV has a problem with motion when watching 24fps content. Unfortunately, that includes most film and premium TV, whether played from a disc or streamed from a service such as Netflix, or through a media streamer.

Max light output HDR (high dynamic range) while displaying small white square taking up 10% of the screen (measured in Nits) A visual setting called "Filmmaker mode" is made to lessen the amount of post-processing added to films and TV shows, giving you a much more pristine and cinematic experience and letting you watch content the way the creators intended. There’s some careful shading of these parts of the picture and some decent light and dark detail. The depth and solidity to the image is enhanced by the Dolby Vision Dark picture mode, which gives added subtlety to Dolby Vision content.Along with HDR 10+ and Dolby Vision, the Hisense 55U7QFTUK is Dolby Atmos-enabled, but the modest two 10W speaker arrangement doesn’t do much to create a sense of space to the sound. Watching the Kiln prison break scene in Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol.2, the flying machine gun drones all sound far too close to the panel itself to add much excitement. Percentage luminance drop at 20 degree vertical angle from the centre of the screen with 50% white output It has a strong feature set and performs fairly well in some aspects, but the smeary motion undoes a lot of the good work the set does elsewhere. ARRAffinity cookie is set by Azure app service, and allows the service to choose the right instance established by a user to deliver subsequent requests made by that user.

If you want more of the same but with improved local dimming and more dynamic range, then the Hisense U8K is more expensive but does offer a little more performance and we’ll have a review available as soon as we get one in. And this brings us to the contrast performance of the Hisense U7K and in HDR picture modes we measured on/off contrast at 5249:1 with local dimming set to high and 4102:1 with it set to off. This is good for such a TV at this level of the market, but the dynamic range is not huge and the tone mapping employed does clip detail in the brightest reaches of the image.

A Good TV That's Stuck in the Middle

Color performance is excellent, and in line with the similarly impressive range and accuracy from the Hisense U6H and U8H. The above charts show the U8H’s color levels in Filmmaker mode with an SDR signal compared against Rec.709 broadcast standards, and with an HDR signal compared against DCI-P3 digital cinema standards. SDR colors are nearly perfect, with greens just a touch oversaturated. Magentas and yellows also run just slightly warm, but not to a significant degree. HDR colors cover almost the entire DCI-P3 color space. Greens fall just slightly short, while cyans and magentas skew a bit green and red respectively. In both cases, the white balance in Filmmaker Mode is just about perfect. Out of the box, the colors on the U7H are excellent, with whites that are more spot-on than the U8H but with a slightly lower color range. In the overcast opening scenes of Deadpool, the red of Deadpool’s costume looks well saturated and accurate when you view it straight-on and stays balanced when you view it from the side. In the burning lab fight, the flames look bright and relatively varied with different yellows and oranges, while shadow details come through clearly in the same frames as the fire. Inside this set is a digital tuner, with the Freeview Play service built-in. As ever, it makes for a usable EPG and a decent set of catch-up services, however, the VIDAA U4 Smart TV operating system comes up short on apps. Netflix, Prime Video and YouTube are all present, but notable absentees include Now TV, BT Sport, Apple TV, Google Play Movies & TV and Disney+.
