Amazon cuts price of Hisense 4K HDR TV that offers satellite-free streaming
Amazon has slashed the price of an impressive Hisense television that offers all the latest technology, perfect for streaming TV and films. Hisense gives buyers access to Dolby Vision and Freely while offering reasonable prices. Not only does content look fantastic, but with this TV, you don’t even need a traditional aerial to watch live BBC or ITV broadcasts.
The online giant is offering the 55-inch Hisense TV on sale for £289, down from £319. Prices for the device have been steadily dropping since late 2024, but this is now the lowest price its ever been – and customers are raving about the quality. The Hisense 4K TV A6N is a full array LED TV, which means the light source spans the entire picture for optimal visuals.
The television supports Dolby Vision, providing dramatic HDR effects, so shows like Bridgerton or The Grey Man on Netflix look absolutely stunning. As reported by the Mirror, one of the standout features of this TV is that it supports Freely.
This cutting-edge technology allows you to receive terrestrial broadcasts without the need for a rooftop aerial. Instead of plugging it in, simply connect your TV to Wi-Fi and stream content from BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and 5 directly to your TV – a feature that rivals Sky’s Essential TV plan, which includes Sky Stream.
You can now ditch that cumbersome aerial socket, as this TV doesn’t require one. Perfect for a kitchen extension or any room without an aerial connection, all you need is strong Wi-Fi to enjoy your favourite shows, however be prepared to install a new roof aerial if your Wi-Fi isn’t up to scratch.
While the TV offers plenty of perks, it does have its drawbacks given its price point. It’s limited to a 60Hz refresh rate, meaning it won’t support the high frame rates from gaming consoles like the PS5 or Xbox.
The display quality is commendable, but with a maximum brightness of just 300 nits, it may not perform well in well-lit spaces. Nevertheless, draw the curtains for movie night, and you’re in for a treat.
Amazon isn’t the only retailer offering the Hisense television for less, as Very also has it priced at £289. Shoppers wanting to browse more bargain TVs may wish to check out the 55-inch Amazon Fire TV 4-Series that’s currently on offer for £399.99.
Elsewhere, Currys has knocked £90 off the SAMSUNG DU7100 55″ Crystal UHD 4K HDR Smart TV, taking the price down to £329.
The sound quality of the Hisense TV is fairly standard, featuring two 10W speakers. For an enhanced audio experience, consider pairing it with a soundbar.
Some buyers have noted the sound as a weak point, saying: “Very good resolution and colour but the sound isn’t the best but it’s good.” Yet many others are satisfied with the impressive picture quality, noting: “It’s great to have a nice big screen with good resolution.”
Other buyers reported that the television was initially set to ‘eco’ mode, which they found compromised the picture quality. They discovered an enhanced viewing experience upon deactivating this feature.
The power-saving option is an EU requirement that’s common on many televisions. Switching to the ‘standard’ picture option will allow the screen to use higher brightness and deliver a better picture.
