Value for money - massive upgrade
This TV is a gigantic upgrade from a LCD panel without paying for the big brands but the quality is great and unless your an absolute TV enthusiast it will check all the boxes and you will be blown away by how much better than a normal TV it is. The built in speaker is almost as good as having a soundbar, loud, clear and good quality. I am happy with the purchase

Hisense makes sense
I’ve had this tv for a month now. It’s easy to set up. It sounds great and looks even better. Some people say that Hisense televisions can be problematic but I’ve only ever owned two and they were both at the high end quality which are a fraction of the price of what you’d be expected to pay for a tv from Sony or LG but this just as well . If not in some respects this is better as you do not need a soundbar. The sound quality with the built in surround system is amazing . It runs at 144hz if gaming is your thing. My GT racing game looks and sounds incredible. I am Very happy with my television, well worth the price. Highly recommend .

Really disappointed with that TV
I've had high hopes but unfortunately I was hit by reality. 1 TV had a strange sound coming from the back of tv, Hisense customer service approved the return due to fault and tv was replaced for same model but again tv have the same issue. So I decided to return the second one and do a refund. Probably will by Samsung, as I had Samsung tv before for 10 years. So please think twice if you considering buying this tv.

Very please
Amazing picture, with brilliant contrast and deep blacks for HDR content. Initially had an issue with a buzzing noise when HDR content was playing and our new 5.1 surround sound wasn't palying nice with the TV. But when the TV operating software was update both issues were resolved. Result!

Nothing special
I bought this tv on the strength of review sites, my old tv couldn’t display sky UHD so I decided to upgrade but unfortunately this tv is no better.

Disappointed
Disappointed with sound. Bought because of sound bar on the front. We have quite thin walls so were impressed with the built in soundbar on the front. I didn't know it also had speakers on top and sub woofer on the back, which defeats the object really for us. The picture quality is great though. Also we can't pair our remote control, we've followed instructions but no joy. Would have thought twice about purchasing, especially with the cost of TV. I would never normally spend this amount on a TV.

Complete Transaction and Delivery Process was easy
Bought this never having used Argos Delivery before and was pleasantly surprised. The Product came well packaged, we were informed and updated about our delivery time and the delivery guys were a credit to their company, they couldn't have been more helpful. The sound and picture and interface on the TV is excellent and it is living up to our expectations. It was a bit fiddly for me to set up (I'm 69 years old) but with a bit of patience and time sorted everything out. It could do with a better user and setup guide in my eyes, but if I managed to do it most should manage without too many Problems.
