Incredible brightness for both HDR and SDR video. Excellent black levels and contrast with little blooming. Good screen uniformity. Support for all major HDR formats. Great gaming features. Class-leading connectivity. Simple setup and operation.

Mediocre off-axis viewing. Anti-reflection and picture processing are good, not great. Disney+ streaming issue.

Hisense’s U7 series mini LED TVs have long provided excellent midrange value, and this year’s U75QG takes another step forward in performance. It’s much brighter, offers better contrast, and comes loaded with enough features to put some flagship TVs to shame, including outpacing Hisense’s own step-up U8QG for connectivity.

Not to be outdone, the U8 series has also gotten brighter, now reaching almost blinding levels in some scenarios, but the U7 has all the firepower most folks will need. We’re talking two or three times the peak brightness of anything you can stream, and enough potency to properly dazzle in showcase Blu-rays, which should please even TV enthusiasts.

Enthusiasts won’t be as pleased with the TV's off-axis performance, and its picture processing still can’t match pricier models. I also ran into some odd streaming quirks with Disney+, though Hisense says a fix is coming. That’s one of the few points that gave me pause in recommending the U75QG to everyday users, which otherwise serves up serious value in a very competitive field.

Snappy Setup
