HISENSE has joined the ranks of LCD TV makers using quantum dots, a technology that enables sets to more closely approach the wider color gamut promised by Ultra HDTV. (Quantum dots generate red and green light when energized by a blue LED, with the sum total providing the backlighting that LCD TVs require.) Along with the 65-inch 65H8G reviewed here, Hisense’s H8G series also includes a 75-inch model, the largest flat-panel TV that the company offers. For larger screen sizes, the company manufactures a range of ultra-short throw laser projectors.
FEATURES
Hisense is based in China, and the 65H8G is assembled in Mexico. The set’s design is conventional, with only a thin black edge of frame barely visible around the screen. For table installations, the 65H8G provides two pair of mounting positions for the attached feet: one at the usual width near the screen’s edges, and the other slightly closer together to accommodate a range of setup options.
The 65H8G is compatible with the Dolby Vision, HDR10, and HLG high dynamic range formats. Hisense also says the set supports HDR10+ via an HDMI input, but not from its built-in Amazon Prime Video app (Amazon is one of the few streaming services to offer programs with HDR10+). When displaying an HDR10 video source, the set employs its own internal Hi-View Engine processor as needed to optimize tone mapping for the display's peak brightness capability.

The Big Clean
Chances are you probably do not think about the state of your electronic devices too often. Oh, you might think about all the upgrades you would like to make; where you would put those new tower speakers, or how a second or third subwoofer would really tame those bass modes in your room, or how much more cinematic a larger screen would be. Sure, you think about that part of your system. But how often do you think about the well-being of your system?

Bridging the Analog-Digital Gap on a Recliner
When I shopped for a motorized recliner, I rejected models with their own Internet Protocol address and built-in speakers. No need. I had already placed a smart speaker on an étagère beside the space where I had planned to put the chair. I'd have a smartphone in my hand and the room would be bathed in Wi-Fi.
