40 inch Full HD QLED Smart TV 40A5NQTUK - Quantum Dot Colour, Natural Enhancer,HDR & HLG-Dolby Atoms, HDMI, Share to TV, and Youtube, Freeview Play, Netflix and Disney+ (2024 Model)

Wanted a full HD TV that would fit on a swivel stand.Got this as it's 1080p (full HD) not bothered about 4k and i especially didn't want up trying to upscale the picture to guesstimate 4k.Didn't know this before I got it as you never see pictures of the back of the TV and it's connections - but all the inner workings are contained within the the area of the VESA mounting including the HDMI. Connections. If you think about this it's essential for a swivel TV to be like this as if the HDMI were at the edge/bottom of it, the cables would get in the way?40" is a nice size, smaller TV's aren't often full HD and the bigger ones mount the HDMI in places suitable for wall mounting.The speakers are good enough as they're in large chambers again as it's not aimed for wall mounting which requires it to be super thin.It's a QLED which puts image quality above viewing angle, which is going to always be straight on if on a swivel stand anyway.The app's on the proprietary OS are decent, not a massive selection, though it's got the usual BBC iplayer, Utube, netflix, paramount+, Disney+, Amazon prime.Excellent TV for my requirements, bluray discs look fantastic, but if you try a 4k disc it's having to downscale the images and you can tell just watching that the things aren't right, if you pause the picture it genuinely looks worse than a HD bluray so don't waste your money on those pricey discs!Love it!!

PROS:-Very good screen and picture quality.-It comes with a lot of internet channels built in - Sony TV, Vidaa TV and all the usual apps (iPlayer, ITVX, Channel4, My5, STV, etc).-Easy to access Netflix, Disney+ etc once it is connected to the internet.-Straightforward connection to internet if you have an ethernet connection available.CONS:-The Wi-fi connection is very flaky. My router is 2m away (separated by a cupboard) but the wi-fi keeps disconnecting. The ethernet connection is essential. (Laptops, mobile phone, even DVD player all connect to the wi-fi just fine).-I find the remote to be frustrating. There is no separate controller for audio and video settings. One has to go to the menu home and from there, click down, then left, then down again to reach settings. From there, it is another few clicks to reach audio settings. This is a particular problem because I have an old AV Receiver (a Denon 2313) which does not feature ARC or eARC. The TV automatically switches on the AVR and starts using the HDMI connection. However, because it is not ARC, no sound goes from the TV to the AVR (only the picture goes from the AVR to the TV). Now, I have the optical (TOSLINK) connector from the TV to the AVR, but to change the sound I have to click on the remote about 10 times to get to the right selection and change from HDMI to SPDIF. I also have a Freesat box and DVD player connected to the AVR so when I choose those inputs on the AVR, then it is fine - this is only a problem when I want to watch the TV itself (including the Sony TV channels etc). I think I will need a new AVR to avoid this annoyance (but I also want to connect my old VCR for VHS tapes and most new AVRs don't have the video inputs for this).

TV been running for a couple of months now with no issues. Picture is good, sound would say is okay. Comparing this against a LG of same size and age. LG is better but was also more expensive. LG is slower to use however.Initial setup on the Hisense is long and you have to sell your soul in the T&C's to use some of the baked in features. Would buy again if had too, but would also consider just spending a bit more for a bit better sound and picture.

This an absolutely brilliant tv at this price point for the size. Picture quality is amazing and the sound is very very good. The remote control is a bit plasticky but not a real issue. Would totally recommend this tv.

Good quality picture and sound.Remote takes getting used to.Plenty of channels to choose from.The only drawback is, like some other Hisense models, you cannot edit all channels.( I do not need and cannot recdeive Scottish channels - but I cannot delete the entries

Great TV

Interest channels keep buffering which is very annoying. Otherwise it's a great tv, picture and sound quality is great.

The viewing angle is terrible, it's straight on or don't bother.Flesh tones all over the place, although DJT did look hilarious.The price for me was £249 it said reduced from £399, I don't see anyone paying that and being happy.Started playing up after a couple of weeks, streaming on Apps kept going to a single colour and no pictureSound not greatSending back
