In-Depth Review
Let me start by saying that I’m not really a tech guru. I’m just a regular guy in my mid-30s looking to upgrade my living room setup without breaking the bank. Recently, I decided to try out the Hisense 85″ Class QD7 series Mini-LED 4K UHD Smart Fire TV. Here’s my take on it after a solid month of use.
**First Impressions**
The first thing that struck me about this TV was its size. At 85 inches, it definitely makes a statement in any room. Unboxing it was somewhat of a challenge due to its sheer size, but once I set it up, I was greeted with a spectacular view. The setup process was pretty straightforward, and I appreciated that the TV was surprisingly lightweight for its size.
**Build Quality & Design**
The build quality feels solid. The bezels are slim, giving it a modern look that fits nicely in my living room. The matte finish on the surface helps reduce glare, which is a big plus in sunny afternoons. One thing I noticed was a slight wobble when I adjusted the angle on the stand, but it never felt like it would tip over. Overall, a solid design that doesn’t seem overly flashy but definitely attracts attention.
**Performance & Daily Use**
Once I started watching my first movie, I was blown away by the picture quality. The QLED tech delivers vibrant colors and deep blacks, making Hollywood blockbusters look incredible. I particularly enjoyed watching sports; the motion was smooth and didn’t lag, thanks to the native 144hz refresh rate. Whether it was action-packed scenes or quieter moments, the HDR10+ and Dolby Vision features enhanced the overall experience, making everything look like it was shot in high definition.
I also tried out some gaming on it, and the Game Mode Pro feature came in handy. With low latency and adaptive sync, my gaming sessions felt fluid. However, one downside is that, depending on the game settings, I noticed some brief flickering. It’s a minor issue, but if you’re a hardcore gamer, it might be worth checking.
Daily interactions with the TV were smooth. The Alexa integration is another great feature. My kids love using voice commands to find their favorite shows, and I’ve found it super convenient for adjusting the volume without getting up from the couch.
**Who This Is Best For**
If you’re a movie buff, a gamer, or someone who just wants the best TV experience possible at home, I’d say this TV is definitely worth considering. It fits well in a medium to large living room and can elevate your entertainment setup significantly. However, if you’re working with a small space, this might be too much TV for you.
**Pros and Cons**
On the plus side, the Hisense 85″ QD7 offers impressive picture quality and user-friendly features. The sound quality was more than adequate for a built-in system, thanks to Dolby Atmos, and I didn’t feel the need for a soundbar right away. However, there are a couple of downsides I’d like to mention. The remote could use a few more ergonomic touches—it’s a bit bulky for my liking, and I found myself fumbling with it more than once. Also, the price point, while competitive for an 85-inch TV, might still be a bit steep for budget-conscious buyers.
**Final Verdict**
Overall, I’m happy with my purchase of the Hisense 85″ Class QD7 series TV. It delivers a fantastic viewing experience that has made family movie nights a highlight of the week. Sure, there are minor quirks, but they don’t overshadow the fantastic picture quality and features. If you’ve got the space and the means, this is a smart investment for an upgraded home entertainment setup. I’d give it a solid 4 out of 5 stars.

Best RGB color for Budget Mini-LED
Bought the budget TCL mini-led QM5K 50 inch and everything about it was perfect (Google TV) but the color was a little off and not sure if that is a one-off issue, or if all 5K’s are like that. Very impressive with vibrant colors and smooth clear images, but it didn’t have a wide range in the yellow and orange colors. It was a little limited even after trying all sorts of color calibrations and adjustments. Bought this TV and it does have smooth play issues (stuttering) at the beginning of Prime Video. After about a minute, it is okay. Tried both Ethernet and WIFI and it didn’t matter. Haven’t tried my fire or Roku stick yet, but I might. If this Hisense had Google TV, I would have bought two, no question. I don’t like Fire much. As for the color, I use the “Custom” setting for Picture Mode and the color is EXACTLY the way I like it. It’s so good, I didn’t even check the other settings. I use the same exact numbers for HLG, HDR10, and “standard video (like youtube) and live TV”. Having “Skin Tone Control” really helps add more color without over-saturation. I didn’t see that on my TCL. Not sure if the AI chip learns the signal format, but it does seem to improve the more I use it. Not a lot, but it does seem smoother and clearer now than out of the box. Another win for this TV over the 5K is I have it hooked up to a Vizio sound bar. On this TV, when you adjust the volume, it gives a number value (10,12,14) but the TCL just shows + or -. I like to see the number volume value. Since Fire isn’t intuitive for setting, you have to disconnect the eARC HDMI cable, THEN adjust your bass/treble, then plug it back in. (huh?) to add depth to the sound bar. Hisense does need to tweak this model a little bit, and if they do, it will be very much a value win as a mini-led at this price point and is very much worth it. I almost went with a QLED, but glad I spent the extra $100 or so for mini-led.

Wonderful TV.
I’ve waited about a month to give my review, so far the tv is great, the picture is crisp, color is great, no lag in fast action, even older streaming movies look great, I’m completely satisfied with this purchase, and the price was amazing, I opted for the old tv removal, new tv unpacking and set up, Amazon did a great job, I’ve seen the negative reviews, my best advice, ignore them, you’ll love this tv.

If you have a recast DVR, the TV cannot access the recordings
If you are a prime member, you will surely want a Fire TV. However, switching to the fire stick for Recast DVR is a bit cumbersome and the TV soes not have Recast controls because Amazon no longer sells them. . Neither Amazon nor Hisense were helpful. The AE gate was so high, i never got over it. Also, there was a glitch with the TV turning on and off my Polk sound bar. However, the Hisense speakers are quite good with controls to enhance speech. Great picture and price for a high-end TV for realism and gaming, I expect. It has a jack as well as Blue-Tooth for headphones. I switched to a Roku TV and now control everything with the Fire FV Stick remote.

Great TV
I purchased a LG TV. It didn’t last 2 years. I did my research and it said the Hisense 85″ was one of the best. The installation was a piece of cake according to my great nephew. I love the remote control. Very easy to use since it doesn’t have very many buttons. I just wish they would make a remote with a light in the background so us old folks could see it better. The sound is great. I don’t have to use my Bose and I can hear it perfectly. The picture is great.

Very happy with new Hisense TV
I just received this TV today it was replacing a Westinghouse 43 in UHD with HDR TV and the picture is so much better and brighter. A couple of days ago I turned on my Westinghouse and the screen was really dark I tried everything to resolve the issue and couldn’t so I decided to buy a new TV and for less than $300 you can’t do better than this. The Dolby vision is great the sound is great. Only suggestion would be when you get the TV and you’re watching content click on the gear for settings and then turn off the light sense option

Amazing!
When it comes to shopping for a TV I am very particular. It takes me forever to make a decision as I’m always looking up reviews going to YouTube to see how the TVs work what they stand up against etc etc. The one I had sitting in my cart for a very long time with the brand new 65 inch Amazon fire TV mini LED when I kept seeing this one appearing everywhere.I used to not like Hisense tvs at all however they have really stepped up lately and are definitely something to pay attention to. Unlike a lot of other low budget television sets Hisense is putting in a major effort into the quality of their TVs in this one shows.Sometimes the most expensive TV is not going to be the best which is where they get us.With the prices of everything these days skyrocketing in our economy to see such a quality product like this be available for the price that it is is so absolutely worth it.Don’t be afraid of the price point it doesn’t make it a cheap TV. Take the time and do the reviews yourself go to YouTube watch people who have unboxed it and used it.The colors on this TV are mind-blowing they are so intricate and all details are amazing the blacks are true blacks and the colors are true colors so bright plus the fact you can customize everything for every input for every appI’m also using the gaming mode and it is seamless so I highly highly recommend this TV if I could give it 10 Stars I would

Great TV awesome price!
Update after 3 months the picture quality is still great but the software is buggy. The audio doesn’t always start or lags, sometimes menus don’t load, and content will sometimes restart over and over. Setup was relatively easy and picture quality is outstanding. The price is unbeatable for. Mini LED and it’s one of the few mini LEDs in this size. I wanted a TV under 55” and this is great. Wish it came in 42”, I don’t like giant TVs. In room delivery from Amazon was also great def recommend it.
