Hisense Series 6 P6

Hisense 65P6 65” TV – Fantastic Picture, Still Going Strong I’ve had the Hisense 65P6 since 2018, and it’s been a fantastic TV overall. The picture quality is excellent — sharp, vibrant, and consistent, even after all these years. It’s well-built and has never skipped a beat. That said, the built-in smart TV interface wasn’t great — slow and… Read more
clunky from the start. But I got around that easily by plugging in a Firestick and later an Apple TV, which gave me a much better streaming experience.
For the price, it was incredible value, and nearly 7 years later, I’m still very happy with it. If you’re after a solid 4K panel and don’t mind using your own streaming device, a Hisense tv is a great choice.
Awful – Used a couple of hours a day. Menus started to not display properly after 3.5 years. Stopped working completely after 4.5 years. Had diagnosed and required a new main board for close to $400 to fix! Did not fix as I'll replace with a reliable TV brand I'll be sticking to Sony and not cheaping out next time. Show details
Only lasted 3 years, garbage!! – Started off with the menus not displaying properly then the TV lost all of its picture. We’re careful with it and only use it 1-2 hrs a day, unsustainable garbage, will never buy Hisense again, worth paying more to get a premium TV that won’t die otherwise you’ll be buying a new unit every 3 years Show details

Would not recommend – Bought in 2019, at first it was great but not long after I started noticing problems such as the lips of people not moving in time as their voice so it would like people were lip syncing and not speaking in time, the remote sometimes plays up making it hard to function the apps on the tv, (YouTube for example) the remote just seems not to… Read more
register with the tv and I’ve even put new batteries in it and I call the tv bipolar because some days it will work and some days it won’t register, I’ve had times where I have to turn the power off on the outlet as the tv doesn’t want to turn on no matter how many times I try.
I wouldn’t recommend this brand. I had a Samsung smart tv and the quality of that tv was more better than this brand and way more easier to use.
I’d Recommend A different brand
(It’s off at the moment as again it’s having its moment of not wanting to turn on)
TV is rubbish – I brought this TV in January 2018 one month before the warranty expired i had a vertical line through the screen and the volume won't work had to have it up at the top of the range on the volume then it would just turn itself of. Had problems with Netflix i couldn't scroll it would just keep scrolling couldn't stop on any shows. I rang Hisense and… Read more
they sent a replacement TV out a week later i have had my new TV for 5 weeks and now have two vertical lines running through the screen and the picture quality is fuzzy and pixelated so i again rang and complained they have now sent me out another TV same brand very worried that the issue will show up again.

GOOD TV - Great After Service – I bought this TV which is 65 inches in January 2019 from JB hi-fi for $1232.00. For the past three years I’ve had no trouble with it, maybe the only thing I can say that does happen to it is sometimes the picture breaks up into little pieces almost looks like a jigsaw puzzle but it doesn’t last long and it doesn’t happen often. I don’t know it the… Read more
weather has anything to do with it or the aerial but I think they call them pixels. But I’m not quite sure about that part. I find that the remote control is a bit difficult to use because one of the buttons called the EPG doesn’t always work and that’s the button that gives you programmes of the shows. However there is another channel button you can use as well..
For the past four weeks the TV started to turn itself off for no apparent reason. So then when I turned it back on it started but after 20 minutes also in the middle of a show it turned off again. Then it got to the point where it turns it self off and I turned it on again and it didn’t go on any more. So I rang Hisense and I got a call centre fellow called Tom who said he will reset it for me and as he was calling at the instructions and I was following what to do the TV went blank and stopped again. So we couldn’t continue.
Unfortunately The TV was JUST out of warranty and Tom said he’ll go and ask his supervisor if it can be fixed under warranty and to my surprise I was told Hisense will honour the expired warranty and yesterday a technician came and put a new motherboard into the back of the TV at no expense to me. So even though the TV’s warranty had expired Hisense did the right thing by giving me excellent customer service.
I guess these days after the warranty time has expired customers can expect any product to give up the ghost. Next time I buy an expensive item I will certainly look for the brand with the longest warranty and also I would buy an extended warranty as well.
But for me I’m giving Hisense the thumbs up.
2 duds and can't get through to the call centre – I have a 65P6 TV with a cooked HDMI port, after 18 months mind you and this already being the second model - 1st one had a faulty panel - but do you think I can get through to them to talk about it? The customer service is seriously unbelievably bad - I first called them this afternoon at 2.45 Perth time or 5:45 Melbourne time and spoke to a man… Read more
named ___ who issued me with a service number. He told me that there were further things I would need to do with the television in front of me so I called back this afternoon at just after 3:30 Perth time and was put on hold for 15 minutes, at which time another man named ___ answered the phone and said that he was taking numbers to call people back the next day! When I asked to speak with a supervisor he said that he was merely a secretary and there was nothing he could do! I was furious because I had already been waiting on the phone for 14 minutes - why would you make someone wait for 14 minutes and then tell them that you were going to take their number and call them back the next day? I hung up the phone and then called back 5 minutes later, at 3.50 Perth time, A full ten minutes before the call centre is supposed to close and received a message saying- 'You have called outside business hours - please call again later.' Honestly, is this the way these people do business? - what an absolute disgrace! - how am I supposed to get in touch with them if I can only call from 5:30 in the morning Perth time when my children are asleep OR up to 4pm in the afternoon Perth time and when I do this they won't even answer my phone call!? - during work hours! Even more frustrating is the fact that I emailed them twice and still received no response! I'm not really holding out a lot of hope for this to be resolved amicably even though I have a faulty product which needs repairing and I need this to be seen to as soon as possible! Just awful.
Great sound and picture. Crappy warranty rules – Ok, so some of you reading this may be looking to buy one second-hand and are wondering why someone might be selling it. I have just picked up a 65P6 that is about 8 months old, for half the new price. The seller apparently had a genuine reason for selling that was unrelated to the quality of the TV. I have to say, from the moment I turned it… Read more
on, it was easy to use. Setup took about 10 minutes. I’m now running the sound through my Yamaha surround sound, but even before that, I was suitably impressed with the sound quality. My wife generally watches her shows without the Surr Sound on and the quality and clarity are tremendous. Switches easily between live TV, Foxtel, YouTube and Netflix. Images and 4K videos are fantastic. My only whine is that the Warranty is non-transferable, and in this day and age of electronic stock control, you shouldn’t need a paper receipt to show when and where the appliance is purchased. Hisense should stand behind their product regardless of whether I’m the first or second owner, provided it’s within warranty.

Best TV Ever! Hisense 4K Series 6 - 55P6 (55 inches TV) – I came from owning Sony TVs before Hisense and I'm happy to find a cheaper replacement with Great 4K picture out of the box and Good loud speakers for a TV. I don't like android TVs and this Hisense TV comes with YouTube and a few more apps to keep you entertained. The settings are clear and a few so you won't get confused. The remote it's simple… Read more
and easy to use. I have a new model brand 4k android TV in my bedroom but my Hisense it's far much better and I paid less than halve of the price. This is a TV for people like me who wants good quality, low price and a simple to use TV.
Value for money TV – Just purchased this TV and can’t believe the value. It’s a standard TV with great picture quality and basic smart TV features. It’s no Samsung but for what you pay for it there are no complaints at all. Comes with standard 3 year warranty, no complaints so far Show details
Great value for money – Is easy to use Good price point.happy with all of the features. Controls are simple and quick Love the smart TV having Netflix and Stan already on there is awesome and very handy. Show details
Negative reviews
Stopped working after 4 years – This TV only lasted 4.5 years max and now won't start. I treat my things with great care, so I did not trash it. It had a 3 year Warrantee and only lasted 4. I will never buy Hisense again! Talking about being sustainable!! Make things that last long! Why don't we start with that??!! Show details
Tv has good picture. Shocking remote reliability – We have had our tv for around 12 months and are on our third remote. Can’t run tv without a remote as there are no buttons anywhere for manual control. Every three to four months it just dies rendering the tv unusable. Like I said tv is ok but control issues make me recommend you steer clear of Hisense. Show details

If it’s still working, sell it now – Bought in Nov 2018. Died Feb 2022. Was good until it lost picture and sound. Apparently this is a known fault with Hisense that they only last the 3 years. Disappointed and will be replacing with a better brand. Higher up front cost, but lower cost over the life of the product. Show details

Hisense 55" TV burned out @ 2 yrs 2mths, shorting,lots of toxic fumes, very little use – Purchased Mar 2019 55P6 Hisense, stopped working & burned out, lots of smoke at 2 yrs 2 mths, Was working well until it didn't. Used a couple of hours per week. Disappointed with short lifespan, but within 3 year warranty and support has been responsive. Show details
It’s OK – This was not a bad TV. Picture quality was okay, sound was okay, it did what it was supposed to do. I knew going in it wasn’t top of the line but for what I paid I was impressed. Colour overall was fine. Dark scenes seemed washed out with halo effect although 4K titles seemed to reduce this. There were little quirks like CEC sometimes working,… Read more
sometimes not and the OS was not the best. Firmware updates were few but that’s not a bad thing (unless you want updated/new apps).
What was really disappointing is it has now died only 3 years from manufacture. It could be repaired (it’s either a control board or faulty LEDs) but for what I paid the cost isn’t worth pursuing.
Would I buy again? Maybe. If I was on a budget and could get one for the right price I would probably give it a second chance. If the price difference for a “quality” model was only $200-$300 I would probably find the extra cash and skip the Hisense.
Avoid this product – Poor sound, poor image, remote takes aprox 2 minutes to react. Wont do this again! Poor way to spend money! Its almost going into the pool, You could spend your money better than blowing it on one of these things. Show details
Nothing but issues – Bought this for Christmas and had nothing but issues. Finally convinced jb to exchange and now waiting on delivery. TV had lots of light bleed and one dead pixel close to the centre of the screen which was very noticeable. Hopefully the new one will be better.
Good price – We normally stick to brands like Sony or Panasonic but for our second Tv in the house we couldn’t go past the price point. IT does have limitation, like, we can stream Netflix and YouTube but there is no other option for Amazon Prime, not sure about other streaming services. The quality of the image is quite good and it is good value for money.… Read more
Just work out what you need first from your smart TV and decide for yourself. We found this brand to be reliable.
Terrible tv stopped working after 12 months – The tv stopped working after 12 months just turned off and won’t turn back on. Was glitchy all the time and then just turned off without warning 12 months on the day of buying it, Lucky we paid for extended warranty or we would be screwed. Terrible tv, terrible brand stick with the reliable brands. Show details
Warning! Do not buy Hisense! – Worst customer experience EVER! TV broken down in 6 months. Wasted my time for repair and was told irreparable. New replacement was promised and did not happen. Customer services lied about never received any report from technician. Keep changing stories every I followed up. Waited for another month and tones of calls and emails to be approved for refund but store credit only. Do not buy Hisense if you do not want to waste your time and money. Show details
Disappointed – I've had 2 of these tv's in 5 mnths blow up with faulty boards. Inconvenienced twice my time and effort to return . Cache too small. Can't watch another channel while recording. Does, Did have great picture quality while it worked Show details

Good value for money – Happy with all aspects of this TV except it takes too long to start up. My 10yr old TV starts up quicker than this 2018 model. Thou would still recommend as a great TV Show details
Hisense – The tv quality is very good including 4K. I never had an issue with the tv. Its quite reliable. The remote control is good as well. The tv frame is not the best look One in the market. Price is affordable. Show details
Great tv.... but – This tv has a great picture and is easy to use it has built in Netflix and YouTube as well and it looks good. The only problem is it is not android and only a few apps are available so if you want prime or Google you will have to cast from your phone or computer. Still a great tv just wish it was more adaptable Show details
Great product – Audio feature of the TV is so great. And less hassle as well, since youtube and netflix buttons are already on the remote. Before, we need to use our PS4 for us to sign in on netflix and youtube. So, I guess we are saving energy here. Show details
One of the worst TV brands – TV died after 9 months of very infrequent use, claimed warranty and received the worst customer experience that you can get: https://twitter.com/GNgajic/status/1174478416621395968?s=09 Stay away from Hisense and their products, they are definitely not worthy Show details

Love it – I love my Hisense 43 p6. Wish I knew how to put more apps onto the television. Can't fault the sound or screen. Best television I have ever had. Hisense seems not to be rated as good as a Samsung but I disagree December 6th 2019 Update: The best television i have ever had. People seem to whinge about anything. For the price this tv is 5 stars… Read more
from me
5 star television. Connected sound bar with optical lead. Has Netflix, Stan and you tube built in. The only downer is you can't seem to install more apps. My first smart tv and the colour is so good compared with friends tv's.
Freezing and No Power – When Streaming the TV would sometimes freeze. The TV also stopped turning on after 6 weeks. I must say the picture quality and sound were excellent while it was working. We are waiting for a repair man to come out with a new component. First TV to fail on us ever. Hopefully it won't fail after the repair. Dealing with Hisense on the return/warranty was ok Show details
Great product for Sport – Purchased a second tv for watching Foxtel sport, excellent quality and perfect picture especially the football And cricket. Menu easy to navigate no use. Sound quality is clear and sharpe Show details
Smart TV good quality – Smart TV is very practical unit eazy to operate. Love EPG graphics with good font size. Netflix and YouTube buttons fast to navigate.this is my 3rd Hisense TV and this brand is very reliable with excellent picture and colors. Show details
Low cost and it does the job – I've had the TV for a few months now and I'm pretty happy with that. I bought for quite a low price from the shop (much lower than all the other big brands) and it works well. The OS could be better as you can't install apps, but I rarely feel the need to add apps to the pre-installed ones. The quality of the image is pretty good but sometimes… Read more
(specially with Netflix) you get an annoying traling halo to moving images. The image gets better with content played from a hard drive. You have plenty of ports for any kind of input. In conclusion, if you want the best of the best, this isn't probably for you, but if you care about price-quality ration, this is definitely a good option
Beautiful colours and simple to operate – A lovely TV Beutiful bug picture and sensibly simple remote .A delightful clever combination of value and practicality together with excellent features .I dont use the smart TV cause theres nothing on TV or the internet to watch using data Show details
Great cheap UHD tv – I've had this TV for 4 months now, the picture quality is great. But the sound quality is MUCH better than I thought it would be for a cheap TV. I planned on having a sound bar to go with it for movies but the quality is fantastic as is. Great TV that wont break the bank. I've always bought cheap TV's because they go out of date so quickly, but… Read more
this is the best yet.
Problems you may have: Out of the box, the TV is set to Shop/Store mode. Which will only run app's or TV for 1 minutes before it reverts to a store display (4k pictures, screen saver type of mode) You will have to turn off Store Mode.
When app's start becoming slow or you are having problems streaming video content, you need to clear the App Cache. By pressing the House icon button and going to settings, system, application settings, clear cache & cookies. I've had no other app issues that others speak of
Excellent picture quality – It is mid range in price but has top of range exceptional picture quality. I like the stainless steel edging to go with my decor. Hisense for the win. Definitely recommend this TV. Show details
