Hisense E7KQ Pro (2023) review - a true pro TV for gamers?

[@RODAN_FPL]

Hey Darko, Any chance you could make a video of suggested TVs for gaming, sports or movies in specific price brackets? I guess that could interest quite a few people and bring some additional views your way :)

[@hypergamezjce90]

does it run 120hz at 4k on ps5? or 60hz at 4k? or 120hz at 1080p? please reply thank you. also is the input lag low?

[@elvisllakaj2069]

The ps5 does not support games at 4k 120fps. I tried this tv on my ps5 and its great, but on pc its even better cuz of the gpu at 2k

[@jamesturkish3680]

The ps5 does support 4k 120hz, just not many games provide this yet

[@gabriellevy4460]

Is there any picture quality difference between this one and the base E7KQ ?

[@SubyWuby]

Great video! I bought this TV, it's good enough, I use it exclusively in hdmi mode with my PC, the refresh rate and low input lag, with medium price tag were the reasons that led me to buy this one. I'm just very disappointed with the black levels though, there are times where black becomes dark purple, and in very dark scenes we see "artifacts" (I don't know if this is the correct name to describe it) that shouldn't be there, is there anyway to solve this please?

[@jamieclarke2694]

What are the artifacts on? Games or Netflix or something?

[@Dykan7786]

I hear noise from the rear plastic during use, like the occasional noise of the refrigerator. Really annoying. Does this happen to others?

[@TVguyDarko]

Haven't heard it on my unit, check video settings. Maybe you have certain motion options enabled that are causing this.

[@ChronosChris]

I wish they'd do this exact same spec but with 43inch / 50 inch sizes. 55 inch is simply way too big.

[@TVguyDarko]

Agree.

[@GeordiLaForgery]

Excellent review thanks

Glad it was helpful!

[@MrLachek]

When I watch Disney+ on this TV there is sometimes delay between new scene and backlight, but when I rewatch it it's ok. Can I improve it somehow?

[@ogmagicman546]

🤔

[@interstat2222]

Haven’t seen a Hisense yet with great panel uniformity. They’re behind the major brands in that way. Dirty Screen Effect becomes really annoying the more you live with it.

[@TVguyDarko]

True, they need to work on that to be more competitive.

[@interstat2222]

@@TVguyDarko Hi Darko (and thank you for your nice reply the other time) - I believe maintaining high backlight panel uniformity across a production run is costly, which is why it probably isn't seen on these ultra competitive models. Most of these lower models are now glued/clipped together and intended to be disposable if they become faulty (Samsung started the concept!). Unlike Sony, which always has its custom backlight module/layer made and never takes one that can be supplied by the panel manufacturer - one of the reason Sony TVs always cost more. Panasonic used to do the same when it made TVs itself in Pilsen. I imagine high end models from the Chinese brands do the same.

[@TheDimanoid999]

@@interstat2222 It has nothing to do with the production run. It's about the technology - what leds you use, how you place them on the backboard and the algorithm for dimming the leds. For Hisense, technology is just not there to produce an immaculate black. And please enlighten us all if you understand so much in TVs, what exactly did Samsung start? Tell us a story from the "good ol' days"

[@interstat2222]

​@@TheDimanoid999 Samsung started gluing and clipping TVs together and building combined boards a few years ago presumably to keep costs down. Basic monitors used this method for many years.

Ja sam pazario 55A7KQ. Dirty screen i uniformnost panela su blago receno uzasni. Kvalitet je vrlo los po tom pitanju. Pogotovo te senke sa strane koje su pristune a najprimetnije kod svetlijih povrsina.

Da, jos jedan dokaz kako Hisense mora raditi na kontroli kvalitete panela koje ugrađuje.

What would you suggest between Samsung Q60C, TCL C735, and Hisense E7KQ?

[@pohlinks]

Wow that's exactly my deliberation too

[@MatteoFitness]

@@pohlinks I took the E7K over the Q70A 2021 and the Frame 2021...due to those being edge it...did I mess up?

[@Ado90Gaming]

I saw them all in the store, and the worse picture quality is C735, and Samsung is basically the same as HiSense in terms of colors and picture quality. I couldn't believe it. So C735 is overrated, or maybe it's just bad out of box, maybe it just needs some calibration. For me, HiSense E7KQ is the winner, but only because it's so much cheaper than Q60C.

[@Ado90Gaming]

@@MatteoFitness you didn't mess up if you took the Pro version, because it comes with 144Hz. And it's a lot cheaper than Q70A. If it's the same price, then Q70A is the winner here.
