Hisense has been around for more than 50 years, becoming the largest TV manufacturer in China by market share in 2004. The company has seen further growth by investing in name legacy brands such as Sharp and Toshiba, and is no slouch itself with its top model, the 65-inch Hisense U8H, holding up to some of the best televisions in the world. This particular model offers excellent picture quality, with support for HDR10, Dolby Vision, and HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) to provide a wider range of colors and deeper blacks. This television also uses Quantum Dot technology, which helps to improve color accuracy and vibrancy.

Hisense televisions do not measure up in every way, however, with one of its biggest drawbacks being a problem unique to its product: audio quality. Most televisions go above and beyond with audio quality, with features such as Dolby Atmos in tow to ensure an optimum audiovisual experience. However, Hisense televisions have exhibited a variety of audio issues, particularly with its lower-end models. Hisense televisions also use a VIDAA operating system. While VIDAA allows for several customization options to be implemented, the UI’s app store once again limits the user’s options. Ultimately, if consumers can live with the television’s flimsy, brittle design, Hisense is a viable option for how well its picture quality compares to its competitors for the price, in addition to the company’s willingness to add new features.

Hisense scored 3/5, putting it joint sixth in the rankings alongside Toshiba and the next brand on this list.
