        Flashing the European firmware gives you HDR over HDMI, but you are still missing the "ULED" stuff - quantum dots, local dimming etc. Those are hardware related so they can't be flashed.

        • Xizor on 02/01/2017 - 14:06

          True ozbargainers buy a good panel such as Hisense or Bauhn then add the smart part via an Android TV media player. $800 + $100 is less than half what normies pay for the same end result in a name brand TV such as LG or Sony.

          Because you get more and faster updates, much faster than built in smart TV, you are not locked in to an ecosystem. (apple TV, roku, Chromecast, Android TV, Amazon Fire and many more). Airplay or casting facility and many more.

    the smart TV apps on this are slow and buggy especially the plex one. you're better off pairing it with a media player. you can flash the firmware but do it at your own risk. you need to download the french or italian version from hisense and follow the instructions.

          I don't think so, they're two separate deals from two different retailers. $3 difference for an $800 spend. I know everyone is different, but if I was buying this tv I would be picking it up instore, and my local JB is closer and far more convenient than my local Good Guys. The $3 saving wouldn't be worth the hassle for me.

        Ad hominem much? Its not the cheapest deal and deserves the neg. Funny how people will neg eggs that are caged but won't neg a deal for not being the cheapest. Are we not on ozbargain? The fact that jb "might" be more convenient for some people shouldn't matter either.

        • [Deactivated] on 02/01/2017 - 12:55

          The deal can be priced matched, so it evenely is the cheapest price
          JB isn't going to lose business over 3 dollars to the savvy users of ozbargain is it

          The whole point of this site is to get the cheapest price, it takes 2 minutes of showing a sales rep a link or better deal to price matching an item

          I bought an LG 55 inch recently for 980, JB had it for 1149, wouldn't move on price, walked into the good guys, showed the videopro link, instantly reduced the price, a week later JB follow suit (same parent company btw) and its still not the cheapest price when you factor in Video Pro who still sell the unit

          thats the best part about choice, price matching takes less than 2 minutes in most cases and I can assure you eggs vs a TV isn't really in the same catergory

        • aja12 on 02/01/2017 - 13:32

          The ozbargain voting guidelines allowed for this https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/284780 to occur. Over 50 upvotes for a Chinese phone with virtually no warranty being sold at $300 above the manufacturers retail price. Bargain? God no. Ozbargain? Yes, because it was 1.5% cheaper than two other outlets and theres a stock shortage (intentional stock shortage by Xiaomi).

    Bought similar model in 50" May last year for 650. Amazed with the sound and display. The quality and the sound is so good. Guests coming at my place always ask about this product. 3 years in house warranty makes it even better. 5 stars

    Hisense are looking to take over both Sony and Samsung with the newest Series 7 release. I dare say Sony and Samsung are worried and will have to get their act together if they still want to lead the Market.

    Hisense have spent a Huge amount of money on their new home grown patented technology called Uled with HDR standard which leaves normal led panels for dead. I have enclosed a link that actually differentiates between Uled and Oled. It can get very confusing so do your homework before making your final decision.

    I Like the Hisense range and I will be soon be purchasing the Series 7 Hisencse 65" ULED UHD TV.

    Having a 3 year in home Warranty as well…it is really a no brainer right.

    Hey don't take my word for it, Check out some of the independent reviews out there:-

      Great comment, have an upvote. This would be an amazing TV if it ran Android TV OS. Any idea why Hisense doesn't use android and cut development costs even further?

        No Idea to be honest. Hisense have been around for about seven years now and I just love their picture quality. You are getting top quality for a lot less. A lot of people disregard Hisense. Its a bit like the Hyundai cars when they first hit the Australian Roads. Pretend there is no Manufacturing Labels and have a look at the picture, reviews and specs and you decide what suits you best.

      I just recently purchased the 70in series 7 as it was a great price and couldn't pass it up. I had them next to LG, Sony's and Samsung's. This thing blows them out of the water. Unless it went up against a 9000 series Samsung or LG OLED, imagine it would have it's work cut out for it. But when you consider the price, this is a no brainer. The motion blur tech in this screen is amazing, I came from a Plasma and I could notice it alot on LCD's. Very happy with my purchase.

      Also I calibrated the screen with the settings through AV forums, who also rate it quite highly.

      That's the youtube link for calibrating the screen when you make your purchase.

      Sounds good but looks pricey at $3,499

    I bought one of these at the last 20% off sale and couldn't be happier with every aspect of it.

    Plus I found a great feature that makes gunshots and other bangs less loud while not affecting any other sound. Great for watching at night. It's probably not a new thing but I was happy to find it.

    $798 for this TV. Definitely a bargain
