Love Hisense
Simplest TV that still does all the bits the others do! Got this one for my elderly mum as I already have one and know how easy it is to use, and the amount of apps that are already installed.

At a glance
The Hisense 43Q6SAU is a compact 43-inch 4K Hi-QLED smart TV suited to bedrooms, apartments and study spaces. It stands out for colourful Quantum Dot picture quality, Dolby Vision support, voice control and easy streaming. It also works well for casual gaming with Game Mode Plus. The main limitation is its 60Hz panel and modest brightness, so it is less suited to high-end gaming or very bright rooms.
What it’s great for
- Streaming TV and movies
- Bedroom viewing
- Apartment living
- Casual console gaming
- Everyday family use
- Sport watching
Where it works best
- Bedroom
- Study
- Small living room
- Apartment

- Kids room
Who it’s for
- Student
- Apartment renter
- Small-space household
- Casual gamer
- Everyday streamer
- Family buyer
Things to consider
This model is best for everyday viewing and casual gaming, but premium alternatives offer brighter panels, more advanced dimming and higher refresh rates for smoother competitive gaming.
Small room suitability
Excellent for small rooms, with a 43-inch screen size well suited to viewing distances around 1.3 to 1.8 m.
Student/bedroom fit
Very good - compact size, smart streaming, Bluetooth headphone support and voice control make it a strong bedroom or student option.
Smart tv feature score
9/10 - strong app and smart home support with VIDAA U9, voice control, AirPlay 2, Apple HomeKit and Google Home compatibility.
Gaming suitability
7/10 - good for casual gaming with Game Mode Plus and motion features, but the 60 Hz panel limits it against more gaming-focused TVs.
Portability rating
8/10 - the 43-inch size is easy to place in smaller spaces and simple to move compared with larger TVs.
Key benefits
- Quantum Dot colour: Delivers richer, more vibrant colours for movies, sport and everyday streaming.
- 4K picture clarity: Provides sharp detail that suits streaming, broadcast TV and upscaled content on a 43-inch screen.
- Dolby Vision support: Improves contrast and highlights for a more cinematic look with compatible content.
- Built-in voice control: Lets you search content and control functions more easily without relying only on the remote.
- Google Assistant and Alexa compatibility: Fits more easily into mixed smart home setups.
- Bluetooth audio support: Makes private listening with compatible headphones more convenient.
- Game Mode Plus: Helps reduce input lag for more responsive casual console gaming.
- Energy efficiency: A 5.5-star energy rating and estimated 188 kWh annual consumption help keep running costs lower.
Q: Is this TV good for PS5 or Xbox Series X gaming?
A: Yes. The 43Q6SAU has Game Mode Plus, a 60Hz panel and 3 HDMI 2.0 ports, so it suits casual PS5 or Xbox Series X play. It is not the right fit if high-frame-rate gaming is the main reason for buying a TV.
Q: Will the screen look bright enough in a sunny room?
A: Hisense rates this TV at 300 nits peak brightness, so it is better in bedrooms, studies and other rooms with controlled light. In strong daylight or a sunlit living area, HDR highlights will look less punchy than on a brighter TV.
Q: Can I use Bluetooth headphones with the 43Q6SAU?
A: Yes. The 43Q6SAU supports Bluetooth 5.4, so compatible wireless headphones can be paired for private listening. Bluetooth audio can add a small delay depending on the headphones and app, so it is not the best option for the lowest-lag gaming audio.
Q: Does this TV need Wi-Fi for streaming apps?
A: No. The 43Q6SAU can connect over Wi-Fi 5 or through Ethernet (LAN) if the router is close enough for a cable run. Ethernet is often the steadier choice for streaming if the room has patchy wireless coverage.
Q: What wall mount size fits the Hisense 43Q6SAU?
A: The 43Q6SAU uses a 200 x 300 VESA wall mount pattern. A bracket is not included, so an optional mount is needed, and it should match that VESA size while leaving enough clearance for the TV's rear and side connections.
Q: How many HDMI devices can stay connected at once?
A: The 43Q6SAU has 3 HDMI 2.0 ports, which is enough for a soundbar plus two HDMI devices in many setups. If there are more consoles or media boxes than that, one device will need to be swapped or connected through an HDMI switch.
Q: Can it connect to older DVD players or AV gear?
A: Yes. This TV includes a Composite In connection for older AV gear such as legacy DVD players and set-top devices. That input is for older analogue sources, so picture quality is limited by the source and connection rather than the TV's 4K panel.
