5.0 out of 5 stars Quality
I was extremely impressed with the overall quality of this TV it definitely exceeded my expectations. The quality of picture, sound and ease of use is excellent, I honestly can’t recommend it enough. We don’t have a TV aerial so it’s running from WiFi the quality is perfect we’ve had no issues with picture or performance. An excellent TV and an amazing price.
5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent TV for the price!
Our old Hisense TV in the bedroom, decided to hand its cap in after 8+ years faithful service.We have found this 43" TV to be an excellent replacement. We were immediately amazed by the quality of the display - every bit as good as our new £600+ TV in the lounge!Our terrestrial TV antenna and BT FTTP Internet both terminate in the main bedroom which, therefore, is where we have sited our EE Hub and EE TV boxes. As such, a Freely TV made sense. It's not an essential but does, to a degree, future-proof us.If you have owned a Hisense TV before, setup is straightforward if a tad tedious. This TV uses the latest VIDAA OS 7.6. The biggest change is with some of the menus (eg. "Inputs") moving from the top of the display to its LHS.I connected to our home LAN (rather than WiFi) and plugged in the aerial connector. As such, after scanning, the EPG seamlessly shows all channels - both terrestrial and Internet. As more channels move to the Internet, the TV will (reportedly) automatically update the source and EPG accordingly. However, channel numbering is a tad odd!Sound quality is not overwhelming but is adequate. I have connected a Sharp sound bar (via HDMI3) which greatly improves matters. Using HDMI3 means the sound bar is seen as a CEC device so, its volume and power are automatically managed by the TV remote.Our EE TV box uses HDMI1 and our Roku box HDMI2 (which it shares with our Panasonic BluRay player via an HDMI switch).I did get confused connecting the sound bar which initially refused to work. I had plugged the device into HDMI1 (as per our old Hisense TV). When I realised HDMI3 was used for CEC devices on this TV, everything worked as I wanted! A real case of RTFM.....A couple of other points to note:-- There are only 3 HDMI sockets. 4+ would have been nice.- While the EPG has a full channel list, it does not have the features of Freeview Play+ (eg. +/- 7 days programme information).- VIDAA is a closed system with a limited number of Apps. However, it does include the important BBC, ITV, C5, C5, NOW, and U TV players etc.- Alas, the VIDAA version of the PLEX App has a number of long standing and annoying bugs.- As such, we tend to NOT use VIDAA Apps (except for Freely) as we have a Roku 4K box. This covers all our App needs (and includes a much better version of PLEX).- We use a wall mount for the TV. However, if you want to use the feet provided in the box, note that they are a fixed distance apart (~76cm).That said, the above are minor concerns and, given the fantastic price, do not detract from our 5-star rating. Indeed, we are distinctly chuffed 😀 😄 😁Quick delivery was also appreciated.A final note - with 4 devices, we have the hindrance of 4 remote controls. As such, I also purchased an "All for One" URC-3661 remote control. This has proved to be convenient for controlling all 4 devices (this TV, EE TV box, Roku Box and Panasonic BluRay). I will review that separately.
4.0 out of 5 stars Good value for the price, but is important to know caveats.
I brought this TV to replace a fairly old Samsung 1080p 32inch. That TV started feeling dated, and this was an impulse purchase on sale. So it is clear, this review is for the 43E6NTUK model.The plus points are the image quality is a clear improvement over my old display including better blacks (my old display was pretty poor here to be honest), built in volume normalising which helps a bit with noisy ads, and it comes on very quickly. I think for its price point it is overall good value. But there is some bad points I need to mention.First the TV is not full array backlit, there is a big logo near the bottom of this product page which claims for the E6 series it is full array, this is not the case, it looks like it is backlit, but not localised array, from what I can tell it has no local dimming functionality at all, there is also no dynamic contrast option in the TV settings either. Interestingly RTINGS have pulled hisense up on this for other models which were also have found to falsely advertise a full array. With that said the blacks and overall contract in my opinion are an improvement over my older Samsung screen its replacing, it is a VA screen, so I dont think its terrible, its just that if people are expecting a full array, and the type of features for it, it wont be on this TV.Next the sound is pretty low quality, I wasnt expecting the best, but it is worse then I expected, so may possibly later get a sound bar for it. Of course with the price of the unit, this perhaps would be expected, although my last TV was also cheap, so was a bit of a surprise it wasnt at least as good as that.The wifi software seems based on very dated standards, I had issues connecting to a modern wifi access point, no WPA3, or 802.11w support. The problem with this, is you have to downgrade the entire access point to allow the TV to connect, luckily I can create virtual access points on OpenWRT so I made one just for the TV to use.Some settings dont seem to stick when you turn the TV off, like the smoothing feature. They will report as how you set them, but they revert to the default. This seems a common issue with VIDAA as I found others with the problem.VRR does not support LFC (sub 48fps), however the PS5 doesnt support that anyway, so if you planning to use with a PS5 it wont affect VRR on that device, but may limit VRR support on other devices.The stand is stable, however the legs are very wide on the base, so need a wide base for it, it would have been a better design if there was an optional more narrow configuration, something Hisense did for the larger panels but oddly omitted from this one.

Not sure about the feet but seems sturdy, simple install great picture and sound quality, we are both pleased we chose this TV, haven't tried everything yet but we will get round to it after Christmas when it's just us. So so pleased with it.
