Hisense U6H review 2024: clear and punchy

The Hisense U6H is a 4k television that doesn’t break the bank. Hisense’s ULED lineup, which is their flagship 4k lineup that utilizes quantum dot technology to display a broader spectrum of colors compared to regular TVs, has a new model that serves as the lineup’s entry-level option. You can choose this model from the Hisense website. The Hisense U7H and the Hisense U8H are also higher-end models than this one.

It takes the place of the Hisense U6G, and despite the fact that it is extremely similar, it has a few new capabilities, including as support for variable refresh rate (VRR) for gaming and eARC compatibility, which allows it to send high-quality audio to a soundbar or receiver that is compatible with it. Additionally, it is equipped with the intuitive user experience of Google TV 11, which is an improved version of the Android TV interface that previous models of Hisense TVs utilized.

Hisense U6H Specifications

Hisense U6H: Design

The U6H doesn’t stand out in terms of how it looks. Its screen is surrounded by a thin plastic border that is a little bit thinner at the top and bottom than it is on the sides, but is still about an eighth of an inch wide everywhere. A one-third-inch strip with the Hisense logo runs along the bottom line. Under that is a box for the activity light and a button that can be used for both Power and Input. There is also a real switch for turning the built-in far-field microphone on or off.

The 55-inch U6H is on the thick side, as the set’s measurements (48.4 x 28.1 x 3 inches) show. Most of the extra depth is at the bottom of the back panel, where the control box is. The only interesting part of the back is the raised ridge about 7.5 inches from the top of the screen. The rest of the back has a nice check pattern. There are also four 300x200mm VESA holes that can be used to put the device on the wall. You can buy this 4k tvs from its official website

Sound Quality

Next, we’ll talk about music quality. From what we can tell, the U6H has a pretty standard 2.0 channel audio system with a total of 20 watts of power (2 x 10 watts), which is standard for this category and is the same as what the U6G had. The system that comes with the TV is fine for casual watching, but it can’t come close to making you feel like you’re in the movie.

There are several sound choices to choose from, but to be honest, they don’t make much of a difference. You can also send the sound through the TV speakers, the ARC/eARC link, or even Bluetooth-enabled speakers.

Hisense U6H: Gaming

The good news is that the U6H does a great job when it comes to touch lag. With our Leo Bodnar 4K Lag Tester, we got a reading of 11.2ms, which puts it in the top tier of TVs from this age. At that speed, it’s well below our 20ms threshold for good gaming performance and close to the 10ms threshold for a truly special set in that area. (Samsung and LG do that all the time, but not everyone else.) Still, you won’t have to worry much about controls being slow when you play games on the U6H.

Hisense U6H: Performance

Before we test each TV, we make sure that the screen has been on and getting a signal for at least two hours. Before any readings were taken, this usual amount of time was given to our 65-inch U6H to warm up. The TV also had the most latest firmware updates when it was being tested.

For SDR testing, we switch the U6H to its Theater Day picture mode. with our HDR evaluations, we opted with the Theater picture option. These are the most precise settings we could find, but their behavior may vary based on the active picture mode. If you adjust the settings, the picture might become brighter, but the color temperature and color accuracy could be thrown off.

Pricing and Availability

With respect to cost, all four of Hisense’s U6H offerings are quite remarkable. The foursome consists of We evaluated the 55-inch U6H and anticipate the same level of performance from the 50- and 65-inch variants. While the 75-inch U6H has the same feature set as the smaller sets, the 75-inch version is not likely to appear or sound identical due to the difference display panel and speaker configuration.

Final Words

The only cheap TV on the market right now is the Hisense U6H. It costs less than most of its main competitors and is as good as or better than them in several key ways. It’s a great deal if you need a TV but don’t have a lot of money to spend.

The Amazon Fire TV Omni, the Samsung Q60B, the TCL Series-6 Roku TV, and the Vizio M-Series Quantum are all good competitors to the Hisense U6H, but in the end, it did more than we expected.
