Back at the F1 Grand Prix in March, Hisense brought along a couple of their very latest top-end TVs. These premium TV offerings from Hisense are known as the 65” Series 8 and the mega 75” Series 9 ULEDs which are now now available in electronics retailers across the country.
Both models are 4K and HDR10 enabled and run Hisense’s VIDAA U UI. The Series 9 uses Quantum dot technology, placing the panel in the realm of Samsung’s QLED TVs. While Hisense offer great value for money across their range, these are absolutely target the premium end of the market.
Hisense Australia’s head of marketing, Andre Iannuzzi, says,
“At Hisense, we’re committed to pushing the limits of ultra high definition display technology, and we’ve been able to do that with our new range. The Series 9 ULED is currently the brightest display we’ve ever manufactured, testing at 2200 nits. This level of brightness enhances the viewing experience by creating vivid, lifelike colourscapes that feel like they’re popping out of the screen.”
