Hisense 85" Class QD7 Series Mini-LED 4K UHD Smart Fire TV (85QD7QF, 2025 Model) - QLED, Native 144hz, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, Game Mode Pro, ALLM, Alexa Built in with Voice Remote, MEMC

Bought the budget TCL mini-led QM5K 50 inch and everything about it was perfect (Google TV) but the color was a little off and not sure if that is a one-off issue, or if all 5K's are like that. Very impressive with vibrant colors and smooth clear images, but it didn't have a wide range in the yellow and orange colors. It was a little limited even after trying all sorts of color calibrations and adjustments. Bought this TV and it does have smooth play issues (stuttering) at the beginning of Prime Video. After about a minute, it is okay. Tried both Ethernet and WIFI and it didn't matter. Haven't tried my fire or Roku stick yet, but I might. If this Hisense had Google TV, I would have bought two, no question. I don't like Fire much. As for the color, I use the "Custom" setting for Picture Mode and the color is EXACTLY the way I like it. It's so good, I didn't even check the other settings. I use the same exact numbers for HLG, HDR10, and "standard video (like youtube) and live TV". Having "Skin Tone Control" really helps add more color without over-saturation. I didn't see that on my TCL. Not sure if the AI chip learns the signal format, but it does seem to improve the more I use it. Not a lot, but it does seem smoother and clearer now than out of the box. Another win for this TV over the 5K is I have it hooked up to a Vizio sound bar. On this TV, when you adjust the volume, it gives a number value (10,12,14) but the TCL just shows + or -. I like to see the number volume value. Since Fire isn't intuitive for setting, you have to disconnect the eARC HDMI cable, THEN adjust your bass/treble, then plug it back in. (huh?) to add depth to the sound bar. Hisense does need to tweak this model a little bit, and if they do, it will be very much a value win as a mini-led at this price point and is very much worth it. I almost went with a QLED, but glad I spent the extra $100 or so for mini-led.

I was terrified it was just going to be a big screen, looks good AF. Super heavy, lots of cardboard and Styrofoam clean up. But amazing tv. Worth it, I was scared because it was such a low price, but it 100% was worth it. Hard connect to the Internet and enjoy super detail video. I specifically put YouTube in 2160 to see it and it stumbled on wifi, but hard wired the the Internet and now it's perfect. You'll never regret getting a big tv. Unless you drop it lol. Living the luxury life now with this thing.

Video was not quite what I expected. sRGB was just ok. Nothing to write home about. Out of the box settings for HDR looked horrible. It was not the full 10bit per color. It was 8 bit per color at best with lots of banding between different colors and it made some color areas oversaturated with geat loss of detail. The solution was buried quit deep in the picture menu. It was HDR Enhancement. This restored 10 bit per color for HDR. Once I enabled that & ran windows HDR Calibration & set the saturation to maximum, it looked very close to what I see on my oled monitors, which is very good. Note this is true only if you are sitting directly in front with only about 15 degrees of leeway to either side. Otherwise, the image starts wo look washed out. The remote control works well. I did not test the wifi connection as I had intended this to be connected through a computer on an HDMI connection. Hdmi 1 quit working after a driver update to my computers video card though. HDMI 2 still works though on the same exact settings. HDMI 1 refused to work no matter which port I used on the video card. Nor did it work on my computers on board CPU based video processor. It worked well initially. The menu was easy to navigate to the HDMI port selection from the home screen, which was a good thing as it does not remember the setting upon being turned off then back on

If you are a prime member, you will surely want a Fire TV. However, switching to the fire stick for Recast DVR is a bit cumbersome and the TV soes not have Recast controls because Amazon no longer sells them. . Neither Amazon nor Hisense were helpful. The AE gate was so high, i never got over it. Also, there was a glitch with the TV turning on and off my Polk sound bar. However, the Hisense speakers are quite good with controls to enhance speech. Great picture and price for a high-end TV for realism and gaming, I expect. It has a jack as well as Blue-Tooth for headphones. I switched to a Roku TV and now control everything with the Fire FV Stick remote.

This is a really great tv for the price. Make sure you go through & do your own settings. It can make a real difference from Dolby Atmos in sound settings to advanced settings under picture settings. Also, take advantage of your Amazon account & sign into it then use Alexa via your tv with the remote. The only downside I have noticed is like what everyone else is saying, it's a little slow to respond to remote inputs sometimes.

The Hisense class qd7 television is a terrific Improvement over the Hisense that I purchased in 2022. The sound and picture quality are very impressive for an entry level priced television. I ordered the 50-in and have been very happy with it. Set up was very easy.

I just received this TV today it was replacing a Westinghouse 43 in UHD with HDR TV and the picture is so much better and brighter. A couple of days ago I turned on my Westinghouse and the screen was really dark I tried everything to resolve the issue and couldn't so I decided to buy a new TV and for less than $300 you can't do better than this. The Dolby vision is great the sound is great. Only suggestion would be when you get the TV and you're watching content click on the gear for settings and then turn off the light sense option

Picture quality very good, when sitting directly in front. Off-axis color is completely washed out, even worse than the Hisense ultra short-throw projector (100") that this replaced due to pixelation after 2.5 years. As a monitor, it works well. I haven't tried to use the monitor's operating system, other than settings. I paired this with a mount (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F9KZY7TF?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title), which was easy to setup and worked well with this TV. Glad I purchased this, after using it? It is acceptable. I will keep it. Would I have added a thousand to this budget, researched some more, and bought a higher quality unit? Yes, after seeing the off-axis color fade-out. TV is packaged well and arrived without damage. Is heavy (120#) like most TVs in this size. Definitely a two-person job to mount safely. Also of note, and I have not called Hisense Support on this unit, but I did have to work with Hisense Support on my last unit. I was never able to reach a human being there after many attempts, and the automated responses didn't remotely help me. Maybe that was the intent, because I did end up replacing the projector. This is the second purchase from Hisense, and even after indicating that I will be keeping this unit (it does look good when seated directly in front of it), the off-axis performance and the horrible experience with Support will make this my last purchase from Hisense, at least for the foreseeable future. I own other panels in the 55" and 65" range from Samsung and Sony that are many years old, still working well, and look much better. Anything from them in the 100" range doubles and triples the price, and there may be a good reason for that.
