Game On! Top TVs For A Finals Night To Remember

December 8, 2022 - 4 min read

For many Aussies, sport is in their DNA and finals night is a sacred ritual. Sure, there is nothing like being there in person to cheer on your team but watching from home also has a certain appeal (particularly if it’s pouring outside!). Now is the time to make sure you have the best TV set-up to enjoy these feats of athleticism from the comfort of home. Luckily, the latest Hisense TVs are stacked with all the features that will make your place the place to be at kick off. Having the best TV with the latest tech – crystal-clear picture quality, lightning-fast processor speeds and pitch-perfect audio – is your front-row ticket to all the action.

To help you pick the right Hisense TV for your home entertainment line-up, here are the top features to look for:

The Vision

When it comes to selecting the right picture technology for your needs, Hisense has something for everyone.

Laser TVs, particularly Hisense Laser TVs, are for when you want the biggest picture possible without breaking the bank. You can get up to a 120” 4K picture, which in some brands will set you back the price of a luxury car but with Hisense this is an affordable reality.

OLED And ULED

OLED TVs are considered the best in the business for lighting control and deep blacks, and Hisense OLED is no different. Their 65” OLED X8HAU Series 4K TV and 55” OLED X8HAU Series 4K TV show off the deepest blacks for outstanding contrast, along with incredible detail.

ULED TVs are famous for being able to show a wide range of colours. The Hisense 65”, 75” and 85” ULED 4K QLED Smart TVs display a wider and more versatile range of colours, shades and hues through Quantum Dot Technology. The Hisense ULED TV range will bring the soccer finals to life with outstanding colour transitions and gradients, making every score jump out with vibrancy. Hisense 2022 OLED and ULED TVs also have 200 Smooth Motion with Auto Sports Mode, enhancing the sound effects and delivering punchy fast motion pictures for an immersive picture and full, life-like crowd sound.

Mini-LED

Another top contender in the brightness stakes, Hisense Mini LED TVs take the best of ULED, shrink down the LEDs so they have almost the same light control as OLED, and make a television that’s better than the sum of its parts. The flagship U9HAU Mini-LED Pro TV range has to be seen to be believed; and the 65” and 75” U8HAU 4K Mini-LED Smart TVs are a fraction of the cost of some other brands’ TVs with the same feature set. “The Hisense U8HAU series can display more than one billion shades of colour, features both Dolby Vision IQ and HDR10+ Adaptive, and has an Auto Sports mode for the best sports viewing experience,” says John Milonas, The Good Guys Buyer – Televisions and Accessories. “A Hisense U8HAU series TV is perfect for watching the game with your mates, thanks to the 4K picture and wide viewing angles. It’s the next best thing to being in the stands for the action.”

The Sound

Of course, when it comes to sport, the picture is only half the experience. One of the big features of the U7HAU series TVs is Dolby Atmos, which makes you feel like the sound is coming from all around you. Gone are the days of stereo or 5.1 surround sound, now audio is all about simulating the experience of 27 speakers all around you.

As well as Atmos, the U8HAU series also features DTS Virtual: X, which is another object-based sound codec with the power to boost dialogue audio.

If you want to take the audio experience to the next level, you can get a Hisense soundbar which gives you better sound quality, more control and if you have a Hisense TV with EzPlay you can operate both with just the TV remote.

The Settings

If you’re a picture nerd, there are so many ways to customise your picture to get the colour tones and HDR brightness exactly how you like it. Luckily, for the rest of us, Hisense has made it easy by including settings like Sports Mode, Filmmaker Mode and Game Mode. All you need to do is select the one you want.

Sports Mode turns up the refresh rate for a smoother picture and adapts the audio to focus on the frequencies that matter most.

Many of the 2022 Hisense TV range, including the Hisense 75” ULED U7HAU Series 4K Smart TV, bring you next level gaming with Game Mode Pro featuring HDMI 2.1. This is great for those times when you want to watch the World Cup or have a go at it yourself with an action-packed video game – you’ll experience impressive variable refresh rate and reduced input lag.

The Smart Tech

The VIDAA U6 interface is the operating system for the latest ULED and OLED Hisense Smart TVs, and puts the world’s best streaming services right at your fingertips.

The Screen Size

Gone are the days of SD and HD pictures limiting which screen size you can get. With 4K Ultra HD pictures, you can get up close to the action. You only need to sit about 2.5m away from a 100” 4K picture to get the full experience, so the Hisense short throw projector, which goes up to 120”, suits more homes than you might think. Want a big screen TV for an epic finals night? The Hisense 98” U7HAU 4K QLED Smart TV makes sure you don’t miss an inch of the action, and with QLED display you’ll be immersed with every kick and goal!
