Consensus

our Verdict

The Hisense H4F is a great option for those looking for an affordable Smart TV. It’s easy to use and offers a pleasing picture with accurate colors. However, the simple remote and lack of voice command and local dimming options may be a dealbreaker for some. The limited resolution also results in poor contrast and black uniformity. If you’re looking for a bright TV, this may not be the one for you. All in all, it’s a decent budget buy with minimal features.
