In my last TV review video, I reviewed the Hisense E7K. And today, we are going PRO!
This is the E7K PRO QLED TV from Hisense. It
is a 4K TV with a bit of a boost when it comes to Gaming features.
I am Alex and I do down to earth tech videos.
We will talk about how some of these features actually make this TV great for other things too,
but let’s start with Gaming because I think that’s where this TV really shines.
The on I've got here is the 55 inch but they've also have it in 65 and 75".
Off the bat, I've been using the Playstation 5 a lot with this TV,
but I also hooked up my Gaming PC to it. Because... why not?”
It’s been great for the Playstation as the HDMI
2.1 on the TV takes full advantage of the 120Hz being delivered BY the PS5.
I found it very easy to get it all setup and quickly getting into my favourite games.
The E7K Pro is actually capable of going up to 144Hz,
so lots of frames which is going to be perfect for online gaming.
The TV has a sub 9 millisecond input lag response time which is phenomenal at this price range.
When you couple that with VRR and ALLM, the result
is an extremely responsive display and very… I mean very smooth gaming.
Enabling VRR means you are getting no stutters, or screen tearing or anything like that,
as well as maintaining that really bright and contrasty image, very crisp detail.
Some of these games are incredible on this TV.
You know, Whether I am playing something a bit more chill like a
racing game or a more fast-paced stuff like an FPS game, the E7K PRO really delivers.
It has AMD FreeSync Premium which again,
fantastic for gaming and their Quantum Dot Colour technology… which allows for over
a billion shades of colour to be displayed. Really awesome quality, as you can see here.
In terms of Audio, it has a subwoofer built-in and Dolby Atmos.
Yes, you heard me right! It has a subwoofer at the back, let me show you.
We will talk more about Audio in a bit, and also HDR10+ and Dolby Vision IQ…. Because as
you can imagine, those are great features… and not just for gaming, but for entertainment too!
The Hisense E7K PRO packs a serious punch with its 4K resolution of 3840x2160.
Iam going to try really hard here to do justice on YouTube.
As you can see here on these games are vibrant,
the contrast is spot-on, and the details are very very crisp.
I have tried some of my favourite games
and playing them on this TV has been nothing short of amazing!
And even when Iwas testing this TV here in the studio,
completely the wrong space for it right? As you can tell, thre's windows everywhere,
daylight coming in, lots of light that you know, should cause a problem with the TV,
but actually I've been able to play games as you can see here, and it's been fantastic!
This is where this TV really shines. I was using a top of the range PC,
with the best graphics card that money can buy right now, the RTX 4090.
Tripple A games, really came to life here and I was able to really push that 144Hz on the TV.
Games like Forza Horizon, felt incredible on this TV and I was able to leave the
settings on Extreme which is fantastic. I was actually quite suprised by that.
The same goes for The Last of Us which has a lot of graphic intensive features like Ray Tracing,
and things like that. It made a huge difference when playing on the TV.
Even in darker scenes,right? There's a lot of dark, moody scenes in this game,
I was able to see the right level of detail,
again, despite me being in such a bright room here, with lots of potential for reflections.
The Hisense E7K Pro handled those reflections pretty well.
Playing Hogwarts and seeing this level of detail on the TV was so cool too. I know what this game
looks like on a dedicated gaming monitor, and seeing this on a 55” TV did not disappoint.
If you prefer a little bit more fast paced games, the TV performed amazingly well when I
was playing Call of Duty for example. Extremely responsive with no noticeable lag at all.
Apart from my skill level issues here, the game felt pacey, and the detail was great.
In this new map, they've got on Call of Duty,
they've got lots of water reflections and very contrasty areas, and of course,
you know... teenagers running around everywhere. And I was amazed at how good it looked.
I think the design really helps too, with this extremely narrow bezels,
well, kind of almost no bezels at all. And this beautiful floating glass effect…
One of my favourite features about this TV now, is the gaming bar. It basically
let's you access all the gaming settings that you care about, without leaving the
game. you can adjust whether or not you want to see the frames per second on the screen,
you can adjust the brightness, and you can turn the dark detail on or off.
And you can also change your aspect ratio. For example,
if you prefer a wider field of view (F.O.V.) you can change to 21:9 and not only that,
you can change the position of the screen as well, like this.
This setting is gonna be awesome if you prefer that wider field of view for shooting games,
and things like that, and I just love how you don't need to leave the game to do that.
this part of the design is my favourite one,
these bezes as you can see are really thin, it looks really sleek.
It really gives you that immersion, whether you are watching a movie or playing games.
Even when it’s not on, it still looks great in my
space here. Really enjoying this futuristic look they went for.
Unboxing the E7K Pro was a breeze too, by the way. Very easy to install the feet as well,
and set it all up. It didnt me long at all.
This being a QLED 4K TV… it means we are getting fantastic colour
accuracy and really impressive levels of brightness, going up to 350 nits.
Sure there are brighter TVs out there like the Mini-LED U7KQ or
the U8KQ but those TVs will bring your budget into a different level.
But check this out.. I have a fairly bright space here with
lots of daylight coming in and as you can see, it doesn’t cause a problem at all.
There are some reflections of course, like any display would show right?
But nothing that would disrupt my gaming or watching content during the day.
Which brings me to what I said at the beginning about entertainment…
this TV delivers on more than just gaming.
The E7K PRO has Quantum Dot Colour,
which in practice means we are getting really intense colours.
With Dolby Vision IQ, the content is optimised according to the brightness
of your room. So when you pair this TV with high quality content from
things like Apple TV or Disney+, you get a fantastic experience.
And let me tell you, I could practically count the beads of sweat on Idris Elba’s forehead here,
when I was watching the series hijack on Apple TV. Talk about
being fully immersed, right?! just awesome value!
If you are enjoying this video, pleae give it a thumbs up, and if you like my stuff,
it would be awesome if you subscribed.
I am here at least once a week with a new down-to-earth tech video for you.
And as you can see there's lots of smart features as well,
you can set up Amazon Alex, Google Smart Home and Hisense's own, VIDAA Service.
One feature that I've been really impressed by, not only by the E7K Pro,
but the E7K as well, is the voice search. It will search content across all your apps,
which makes it a breeze when searching for content.
It means you don't have to jump between apps to find your content. This is quite cool now
that you can customise the menu and you can change where you want to put them. So you just hold OK,
and then move the icons where you want them to be. Quite nice
when you start the TV app, and you got your favourites already there.
Sharing content on the TV is really cool as well, you can use AirPlay which is super
convenient for those times when you want to share something with your friends and family.
Whether you are a gaming enthusiast who wants the best value for money… or someone who is
keen to get a great entertainment TV, the E7K PRO really is a fantastic recommendation.
Hisense are always delivering on great deals as well,
I actually got myself two of their TVs last year during their promotion….Igot
one here for the studio which I liked so much that I got a second one for my home as well.
So definitely watch out for Prime Day and Black Friday as well because
Hisense are always doing some great deals. And honestly, any discount at all on the E7K Pro,
is gonna make it an even better value for money than it already is!
See you soon
