Where this TV really excels for detail, however, is in its ability to upscale from HD to 4K and, given that the majority of content is still at 1080p, that’s a massive advantage. A more nuanced picture is only available on sets with local LED dimming, which can control backlighting on a more granular level. Like many budget TVs, this Hisense is not the best at coping from contrast – we get more of a block of light or dark. That detail breaks down a little when it needs to be rendered in very dark or very light scenes. There’s a fine sense of texture on wide shots of grassland and forests too.

It was never going to rival the best TVs under £1000 that cost twice as much, but it does a truly impressive job for the price.ĭetail is strong and, although it’s not as sharp as more expensive TVs (though it is a full 4K screen), there’s enough in the Ultra HD picture to see all the bumps and wrinkles in close-ups. Blacks are a long way from OLED deep and come off a little more on the aubergine side when we’re testing out outer space-heavy films, but this is still far darker than what we normally find on cheap TVs and their hazy grey renditions. That goes a long way when it comes to keeping the picture consistent and it shows whenever there are scenes with block colour tones, such as skies or fields, which manage to maintain their character across the screen.Įvery LCD has some level of light bleed but what there is on this TV is remarkably low.

It’s a direct-lit LED panel, meaning that the source lighting is distributed right across the back of the panel and not just at the edges of the frame. Fortunately, that’s not a problem for the Hisense R50B7120UK. The classic pitfall for cheap TVs is uneven backlighting, with light bleeding through the LCD display when and where it’s not supposed to.
