Hisense 65-Inch Class QD7 Series QLED 4K UHD Google Smart TV (65QD7N) - QLED, Native 144Hz, Motion Rate 240, Direct Full Array, Game Mode Pro, Alexa Compatibility

The Hisense 65QD7N has an IPS panel. If you research the difference between IPS and VA panels, you will be told over and over again that VA panels have a super high contrast ratio, meaning blacker blacks and whiter whites than an IPS panel. This is true. You will also be told that IPS panels have a wider viewing angle than VA panels. This is also true. If you read reviews about 65 inch TV sets, like reviews by the rtings web site, they will always give TVs with IPS panels a bad rating because it doesn't have the high contrast ratio that VA panels have. VA panels suffer from a VERY narrow viewing angle. All of the VA panel TVs I've seen only look good if you are viewing it from a point perfectly perpendicular to the center of the screen. The poor viewing angle of VA TVs is often times so bad that two of the three people sitting on a couch watching TV or playing video games will not be happy and will want to trade seats with the guy in the middle seat. TV reviews, like the rtings web site, will often times describe TVs with IPS panels as "terrible" because of the low contrast ratio, but they will rarely describe TVs with VA panels as "terrible" because of the narrow viewing angle. If you will be watching TV or playing video games on your 65 inch TV with a couple of other people, then the Hisense 65QD7N is a good choice, especially at the $399 price. Don't under-estimate the benefit of the wide viewing angle that this IPS panel gives you. And if you are a gamer with an xbox or similar, this TV rocks with native 144Hz 4K and Dolby Vision Gaming. HDMI ports 3 and 4 are both 4K 144Hz. HDMI ports 1 and 2 are 4K 60Hz. HDMI port 1 is used as the eARC port if you have a speaker system that needs it. But this TV also has a headphone out jack, so you can use the output from it as a "line-in" to typical powered stereo speakers. Technically speaking, the headphone out is not a "line level" signal, but it works as a line out -- you just have to adjust the volume to get it right. One thing about "edge-lit" IPS panels that often times freaks people out when they first look at it is the glowing backlight coming through around the edges. It makes people think the screen is defective. It's probably not -- that is typical for "edge-lit" IPS panels when the brightness is up and the panel is displaying near black at those places. In actual use, once you have the brightness and other settings adjusted best for the lighting in your room and you are actually watching TV or Game content, that "backlight bleed through" will be barely noticable and only in certain scenes -- and that's only if you are actually looking for it. I am really glad I finally found a big TV with an IPS panel, and at a bargain price. Nice! AndyH

Absolutely love this TV. I've had it for almost 2 months. Coming from a Samsung 65" curved TV. The picture and sound quality is amazing. No detectable motion blur or lag times when watching movies or gaming using the PS5. Make sure you correspond the correct HDMI ports for the item being used in those ports. Two of the HDMI ports accept higher refresh rates from gaming consoles, etc, while the other 2 HDMI ports are for standard refresh rates and of course one is the ARC connection for your sound bar. This TV had all the bells and whistles. Which leads me to the only negative of the TV in my personal opinion. It has a built in camera for taking photos when you command it to and can see hand gestures so as to pause, play, etc the TV. Call me paranoid but I don't need a new security/privacy issue coming from my TV while I'm watching it. There is an option to turn this off. Like any smart device, use your own judgement and exercise caution. Take the time to learn about all this TV's features. Once again, that's not a flaw of the TV just a personal preference on my part. The TV has Google TV built in with voice command (this doesn't have to be used or enabled) , flawless picture, limitless options for fine tuning. Excellent sound quality, especially when connected to a sound bar through the ARC HDMI. I was a little hesitant on the brand at first but did my research over a period of a few months. When comparing similar TV's in this price range, I was hard pressed to find another one that came close to this TV's specifications and features. I chose the 85" QLED model. It has native 144Hz and motion rate at 240. Most TV's in this price range only offer a native 60Hz refresh rate. Being QLED, you get the added benefit of direct full array lighting which gives you a much more uniform picture as compared to edge lighting. The black and darker colors are true to their perspective colors and the colors themselves are vibrant and crisp, sharper for lack of better words. If I had to find a small complaint compared to the Samsung it replaced, is that the power supply is a bit louder when switching off or on but it is a much larger TV so I imagine that's to be expected. Again, not anything of great concern. When making a commitment to a new TV, especially this large, do a little bit of homework and compare. I'm completely satisfied with my decision to give Hisense a chance.

I have been a Hisense customer since 2012, most people would usually scoff at the name since its not (LG, Samsung, Sony). They would be shocked to know this TV is cheaper in price and performs the same if not better. My first hisense was a 1080p 55" in 2012, its picture compared to all of the others at walmart was by far better, crisp and vivid colors. This is my 6th Hisense purchase, i had a 65" 4k 60hz in 2019, and just Upgraded to this awesome screen, a 75" Hisense with 144hz refresh. using this with a PC with a high end GPU is better than a high end monitor, no screen tear, has Nvidia Gsync and AMD's equivilent. The picture cannot be beat and since my 2012 hisense is STILL GOING with no issues, I will always be a Hisense Customer!

Note to XBOX users, you have to go into your settings and enable all the extras... It won't do it for you. After everything was configured correctly, I got Avowed into balanced mode and unlocked the refresh rate. With the settings maxed out, balanced mode is smooth, but not as much as I'd hoped given the tv specs. It's still a great picture... Blacks are rich and colors vibrant. HD tv looks great even in 1080. Cons *The remote volume change is slow and doesn't show a status bar when using an ARC soundbar. *The remote also has a bunch of bloat buttons that get in the way. I'll never understand why companies think these help. They don't. I get that they get to sell buttons that help pay for R&D but at what effect? *Speaking of bloat, lots of bloat in the Google OS. I bypassed wifi and all that during setup since I use a fire stick anyway (the kings of bloat hahaha). *Can't seem to find an info mode that shows the current picture resolution. This is pretty standard with all other tvs I own. Would also be nice to get an active frame rate as well, but I fear I'm asking too much with that. For the price.. you honestly can't beat it. I ended up adding the 4 year warranty offered by Amazon. I usually don't go with these but given the brand and the poor reviews of longevity, I thought it would be a risk worth taking. I'll update this review after a month or so when I've had some more time to play around with it.

Excellent tv for the price. Great for movie nights, sports, etc. I could see some very very slight drag/blur when watching fast sports, but that’s expected with a tv of this size/comparing it to $1500 TVs. If looking for a tv that will do a great job and great picture for an extremely low price compared to the competition and bigger brands this is the best option in the under $750 price range for a 75incher

A Giant Surprise — This TV is Seriously Impressive ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I’ve used a lot of TVs over the years, but the Hisense 85" QD7 genuinely surprised me—in the best possible way. I picked it up mostly because of the price (you just don’t find 85” QLED panels in this range), but what I got in return was so much more than I expected. Let’s start with the picture quality. The blacks are shockingly deep for a TV in this price bracket. It handles contrast beautifully, with fine detail even in dark scenes. The Quantum Dot color reproduction is vivid but natural—not that artificial “glow” you get with some cheaper panels. Watching movies in 4K HDR feels cinematic. What really sets it apart is the response time. Fast-paced scenes in games or action films come through smooth and crisp—no ghosting, no blurring. I’ve got a PS5 hooked up and the gaming experience is next-level. Also, I was pleasantly surprised by the side-viewing performance. Even when we’re sitting off to the side, the picture holds its color and clarity really well. Honestly, the only part that didn’t blow me away is the sound. It’s fine for casual use, but if you want to match the image quality with audio, you’ll definitely want to add a soundbar or external speakers. That’s a small trade-off though, especially considering everything else this TV delivers. For anyone looking for a giant, premium-level screen without the premium price tag, the QD7 is a total win. Hisense nailed it.

If I could give this TV 6 stars I would. This is our 3rd, 75in TV and we absolutely love it. Setup is a breeze, easy to install stands, easy to follow setup instructions and easy to download apps. The picture quality is great. You can choose from different picture settings for color, sharpness, and warmth or configure your own which is nice. Sound quality is great and we love the backlit remote control. Helps us see the buttons at night. The TV is heavy but it’s 75 inches and that’s to be expected. There is a ton of functionality which we still need to explore but setting up our subscriptions was very easy. Delivery was great and arrived early. For anyone thinking about buying a Hisense Google TV, definitely give it a shot. The voice recognition is spot on which is impressive. For the price, the quality, sound, color, and features its definitely worth it and not just saying that to say that.

The tv itself is not oled quality, however is the same as the Samsung Q70D QLED HDR UHD 4K in picture quality and better since this tv cost a bit less. So far most of my Blu Ray movies look great and have very little to no drop in frames. Smooth motion when viewing a movie that has fast action scenes and the sound is far better than my previous Samsung tv. I am new to Dolby Vision and so far looks amazing on some of my 4k films, however on a couple of my 4k movies the collors looks washed & flat. Upon reading into Dolby Vision this is due to a couple of factors, one the tv is adjusting to the light in the room and the other is that the tv itself is not capable of outputting 2,000 nits. Ok this sounds bad but it is not an end all because the trueth of the matter is that the movie transfer is the main issue. As I mentioned some of my 4k movies look amazing so this tells me that most movie studios are lazy when it comes to remastering movies to 4k. Overall you can't beat the value the tv brings you since you get a great picture and sound but I love the size, 85" tv is a must have if you are into movies. To be fair the images I attached are streamed from my server so the accuracy is at about 95% since everyone in my household was online at the time. Would I recommend this tv, well yes since I don't ever write reviews but I am happy to help if someone had any doubts about this tv.
