Ratings by Category
Bright Room:5.0
PerfectRec’s bright room score is a proprietary score of a television's performance in a bright environment, taking into account the following factors: screen brightness, reflections, and color volume. A higher score indicates better TV performance in bright conditions, minimizing glare and producing a more pleasant viewing experience.
Brightness is crucial in how well the image displays in direct sunlight, and low reflections reduce glare. Color volume contributes to color vibrancy and depth, which are vital in a bright environment.
Cartoons & Animaton:4.7
The Hisense UX (LCD) provides excellent color accuracy straight out of the box, which is crucial for the vivid and varied color palettes often found in cartoons and animations. Additionally, the TV boasts a very good color gamut and best color volume, ensuring a wide range of colors is displayed intensely and accurately, bringing animated content to life.
Overall Picture:4.7
The Hisense UX (LCD) delivers very good picture quality primarily because of its high contrast and exceptional black uniformity, which provide deep blacks and a robust range of shades. Additionally, the TV offers very good color out of the box, an extensive color gamut, and excellent color volume, ensuring vibrant and accurate colors across a wide spectrum.
Movies & TV shows:4.6
The Hisense UX excels in watching movies and cinematic TV because it offers an impressive contrast and effective local dimming that ensure deep blacks and rich shadow details, which are crucial for dark scenes. Moreover, the TV has good colors out of the box and a wide color volume that contribute to vibrant and true-to-life images, enhancing the overall viewing experience.
News, Talk & Reality TV:4.6
The Hisense UX LCD displays a bright picture which is ideal for viewing in well-lit rooms, making it excellent for daytime viewing of news and talk shows. Additionally, its ability to upscale lower resolution content ensures that standard definition broadcasts look clearer and crisper on its screen.
Gaming:4.5
PerfectRec’s gaming score measures a TV's performance when it comes to playing video games. It is based on several factors that can significantly impact the quality of the gaming experience, including screen response time, input lag, and refresh rate. Screen response time is a critical factor that determines how quickly the TV can transition from one color to the next, while input lag measures the delay between the gaming console output and the TV display. Refresh rate refers to the number of times per second that the TV displays a new frame, which can impact the smoothness of the gaming experience. The gaming score also takes into account two other features: local dimming in gaming mode, which can enhance contrast and picture quality, and black frame insertion, which can reduce screen brightness and create a smoother gaming experience.
Sports:3.6
The Hisense UX has fair gray uniformity which means some viewers might notice slight inconsistencies during fast-paced sports scenes. Additionally, its low score in motion processing can lead to motion blur, reducing the clarity of fast-moving objects which is common in sports.
