Hisense 2025 Review

The Hisense 65U75QG is a 65-inch Mini-LED TV bundled with a soundbar for under $1,000. Its picture quality is excellent (90th percentile), but gaming and HDR performance are weaker than the specs suggest. It's a great value as a complete package for casual viewers, but enthusiasts should look elsewhere.

The Hisense 65U75QG is a big-screen Mini-LED TV that comes with a bundled 3.1-channel soundbar system. On paper, it's a feature-packed package for under a grand, promising high brightness, smooth gaming, and vibrant QLED color. We're looking at a 65-inch Mini-LED panel with Google TV, a native 165Hz refresh rate, and a soundbar with a wireless subwoofer all in one box.

The picture quality is the star here, landing in the 90th percentile in our database. That means it's genuinely good, with the Mini-LED backlight and quantum dots delivering punchy contrast and color. But the other scores tell a more nuanced story. The gaming features (25th percentile) and HDR performance (22nd percentile) lag behind the competition, despite the high refresh rate. And the bundled audio system only scores in the 31st percentile, which is a bit surprising for a package that includes a soundbar.

At around $987 for a 65-inch Mini-LED TV and a soundbar, the value proposition is hard to ignore on paper. You're getting a lot of hardware for your money. However, our performance data suggests some of those specs might not translate into best-in-class real-world performance, especially in gaming and HDR. It's a good deal if you want a complete, big-screen setup without hunting for separate components, but know that some areas are just 'good enough' rather than exceptional.

This TV sits in a crowded mid-range. It goes head-to-head with the Hisense U6 Series, which often undercuts it on price but likely has fewer dimming zones and lower brightness. The more compelling fights are against the likes of the TCL Q6/Q7 Series or the Roku Pro Series, which offer similar Mini-LED tech and often better smart ecosystems or gaming features for a similar price. Stepping up to a Sony BRAVIA 5 or LG OLED C5 will cost you significantly more, but you'll get noticeably better processing, HDR, and gaming performance. This Hisense is a bundle play, competing on convenience as much as pure picture.

Skip this if you're a dedicated gamer or home theater enthusiast. The low percentile scores in gaming (25th) and HDR (22nd) mean you're leaving performance on the table. For a similar price, you can find TVs that excel in those specific areas. Also, if you already have a great sound system, paying for a bundled soundbar you won't use negates the value.

Buy this if you're setting up a new living room and want a simple, all-in-one solution that looks great for movies and shows. The picture quality is solid, and not having to shop for a separate sound system is a legit perk. But if you're a serious gamer chasing the best HDR experience or an audiophile, you'll likely be disappointed by the performance scores in those specific areas.
