You may have heard of the Hisense TV brand and wondered what all the fuss was about. With respectable specifications paired with aggressively competitive pricing, it's easy to think Hisense TVs are a little too good to be true when lined up with the more expensive competition. Thankfully, there's a bit more to Hisense than that.
Sitting comfortably in the mid-range, the best Hisense TVs can provide 4K viewing at various sizes, as well as decent HDR and smart TV amenities such as streaming apps and voice assistant functionality.
However, even the best Hisense TVs typically won't feature the cutting edge specs found in the latest Sony or LG brand TVs. But that doesn't mean Hisense isn't worth a look, especially if you're looking for a quality display without breaking the bank.
If that's been enough to pique your interest, read on to find the TVs we think are the best Hisense has to offer. Do note that certain models may not be able in your region, but we've made sure to be extra clear about where in the world you can buy the best Hisense TVs.

Best Hisense TV: Hisense H9G Quantum HDR TV
Specifications
Reasons to buy
Reasons to avoid
More affordable Hisense TVs are on the market, but it's hard to beat the Hisense H9G Quantum HDR TV on, well, just about everything else. At $700 for the 55-inch model and $1,000 for the 65-inch upgrade, the H9G packs many high-end features into a mid-range price tag.
You're getting fantastic picture quality with the H9G, bolstered by HDR10+. Have a preference for Dolby Vision? That's an option here, too. As such, you'll be able to experience millions of vivid colors along with truly dark black levels.
If you're a gamer, the Hisense H9G also features an improved Game mode that successfully lowers input lag, making the TV a very solid choice if controller responsiveness is a must during your gaming sessions.
Unfortunately, even the best Hisense TV has its drawbacks – chiefly the audio, in the H9G's case. While the built-in speakers get the job done, you'll definitely want to consider buying one of the best soundbars to bolster the audio to levels worthy of the display's awesome quality.

Runner-up: Hisense H8G Quantum Series
Specifications
Reasons to buy
Reasons to avoid
The H8G features almost the same great performance as its successor, the H9G, with just a few drawbacks to consider. While the H9G naturally features some big improvements over this model, such as HDR10+ support, the H8G is the next great all-rounder from Hisense if you're in the US.
A wider range of screen sizes are available for the H8G, all at varying prices, but we think the 65-inch model hits the sweet spot at $700. It's hard to go wrong with the 55-inch model, though, especially at just $500.
It's a good deal cheaper than the H9G, then, and still packs the fantastic picture quality we've come to expect from Hisense TVs. And while we do miss the HDR10+ support, Dolby Vision is more than serviceable when it comes to greatly enhancing image quality.
Of course, any drawbacks present with the H9G persist with its predecessor. The TV's physical design is still a bit on the clunky side, and its Android TV implementation is a little on the sluggish side. Still, the H8G is a great fall-back option if you don't quite have the cash for its successor.

Best value Hisense TV: Hisense R8F 4K ULED Roku TV
Specifications
Reasons to buy
Reasons to avoid
From a pure value standpoint, the Hisense R8F is seriously tough to beat. And the best part is that "value" doesn't necessarily mean "compromise" in this case. Sure, you're not getting the high-end HDR10+ nor the robustness of Android TV.
However, you're still getting that great Hisense picture quality, an easy to use smart TV operating system in Roku and a simply unbeatable price for what's on the tin.
The 55-inch R8F model usually retails for just $499, but we'd strongly recommending opting for the 65-inch model which costs $699, a fantastic price for such a big 4K smart TV.
The Hisense R8F is a great value TV, but you should still note its drawbacks, too. Like the preceding two tellies we've talked about, audio isn't fantastic with the R8F. It's actually a little lower quality here, though, which can and should be largely offset by investing in a decent soundbar.

Best 75-inch Hisense TV: Hisense U6G ULED TV
Specifications
Reasons to buy
Reasons to avoid
The 75-inch Hisense U6G ULED TV offers fantastic value at just $1,199, positioning it as one of the cheaper options at that size without a significant dip in quality. It's even more affordable than the manufacturer's previous efforts with the H8G Quantum Series 75-inch model.
While the 65-inch model won't run you nearly as much at just $749, we'd still recommend opting for the 75-inch version of the U6G, especially with its support for HDR10+, Dolby Vision and HLG formats. These options mean you're getting excellently sharp and colorful image quality for the price.
There's mercifully few drawbacks, too, besides the TV lacking some of the quality bells and whistles found on more expensive displays. Besides that, we weren't fans of the remote that shipped with the U6G. It's a little bloated compared to the relatively simple, stripped back designs of Apple TV or Google Chromecast remotes, but that's by no means a deal breaker.
You'll also likely want to invest in a soundbar, as like most other Hisense TVs, the default speakers aren't the greatest.

Best Hisense TV UK: Hisense A9G OLED TV
Specifications
Reasons to buy
Reasons to avoid
OLED technology doesn't get much cheaper than with the Hisense A9G smart TV, and while it's missing some features that flesh out higher-end OLED TVs like the LG CX, the A9G presents a more affordable alternative that still boasts a stunningly sharp OLED image.
You'll still be expected to pay something of a premium for the Hisense A9G, however, as the TV costs £1,499 for the 55-inch model and £1,899 for the 65-inch variant. Still, OLED doesn't get much cheaper than this, especially for a TV of such high quality.
In addition to a lovely OLED panel, expect other premium 4K TV features like HDR10+, Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos sound support. The A9G's sound quality is also a step up from other Hisense TVs, where sound is usually fairly average.
While the drawbacks of the A9G aren't too severe, it may not be suitable for serious gamers, as the TV doesn't support 120Hz, nor does it feature variable refresh rate for an optimally smooth gaming experience. However, if you're primarily using the A9G for movies and shows, the OLED screen will deliver crisp image quality for less than the best OLED TVs you can buy.

Best value Hisense TV UK: Hisense Roku TV
Specifications
Reasons to buy
Reasons to avoid
For when you're on a serious budget, the UK's Hisense Roku TV provides stiff competition to many of Samsung's mid-range 4K TVs, including the TU7100. The Hisense Roku TV features the brilliant smart TV operating system (as the name implies), as well as great picture quality and solid HDR performance for the price.
And what a price it is. No matter what size you're going for, the Hisense Roku TV is very difficult to beat from a value proposition. If you're on a budget, it's worth looking at the 55-inch and 65-inch models, priced at £479 and £649 respectively. If you need to go lower than that, the 43-inch and 50-inch models exist, costing just £329 and £379 respectively. Such aggressive pricing means that there's a model to suit most budgets here.
For better or worse, there's no ULED or extra-fancy panel technology with the Hisense Roku TV, so while it gets the 4K/HDR job done admirably, you are missing out on higher-end features like HDR10+, Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos unfortunately.
Still, the Hisense Roku TV works excellently as an entry-level 4K TV, or even if you just need a second screen for somewhere in the house.

Best Hisense TV AU: Hisense U80G 8K ULED TV
Specifications
Reasons to buy
Reasons to avoid
For the Australian market, easily the best Hisense TV one can buy is the U80G 8K ULED TV. On the cusp of the new wave of 8K televisions, Hisense does what it does best: offering a (relatively) affordable alternative to the competition while still offering many of the high-end features you'd expect.
You're getting awesome 8K image quality with a range of HDR options including HLG and Dolby Vision, as well as the always-welcome Dolby Atmos for immersive, room-filling audio. As there's not a ton of 8K content available as of yet, you'll also be glad to know that the TV upscales 1080p and 4K content terrifically.
Now, just because the U80G is relatively affordable compared to other 8K TVs on the market doesn't mean it's cheap. At AU$6,999, it's certainly one for the enthusiast TV buyer. However, the U80G is definitely one to keep an eye on as 8K tellies become more common and older models are susceptible to steep price drops.

The wild card: Hisense 100L5 Laser TV
Specifications

Reasons to avoid
So the Hisense 100L5 Laser TV certainly isn't a TV we can recommend to everyone, but it's a novel shakeup that could be what you're looking for if you love the idea of a giant laser-projected 4K screen.
Essentially a short-throw projector that displays a huge 100-inch screen, the 100L5 Laser TV displays an impressively bright and colorful screen that actively rejects ambient light, meaning that the projected image is viewable in brighter environments.
The 100L5 sadly isn't cheap. At $3,699 / £2,999 it's the priciest TV on our list. However, this is Hisense we're talking about, meaning the company still found a way to position the 100L5 at a price that's more affordable than a lot of high-end 750inch TVs. If you subscribe to the idea that bigger is better, then the 100L5's impressive 100-inch screen could be a larger (and slightly cheaper) solution for your home theater needs.
