Smart tv HiSense A7Gq 55: la prova

In the field of smart tv, the competition has now become very combative and it is difficult, given the average level offered by the market, to choose a TV only based on the technical specifications.

In the case of the new 55-inch HiSense A7Gq, the speech is quite simple, because the specifications are all of a high level: it is a thin and beautiful TV to look at, the screen is in no way bulky despite its large size and its presence when switched off, although inevitably it is done. hearing especially in not particularly large rooms, is not annoying. The screen is Ultra Hd, with a resolution of 3840×2160, 10+ (decoding) / HLG / Dolby Vision and the vision is truly excellent: very thin edges, bright colors, very intense black, images always at maximum resolution.

It is based on the qled technology, ie backlit LCD panels with LEDs or Mini-LEDs, characterized by the fact that between the LCD layer and the backlight there is an additional filter with “nano particles of quantum dots”, capable of reacting to electrical impulses and capable of filter the light producing brighter, saturated colors: beyond the technicalities, the result is decidedly interesting, the brightness earns it and the images are really brilliant.

As you can see the HiSense A7Gq smart tv
The TV looks good from every angle, even the most extreme. The operating system is called Vidaa, the use is simplified by a remote control equipped with buttons for direct access to services such as Netflix, Prime, Rakuten, YouTube and by the integration of Alexa and Google Home voice assistants, to manage the TV without having to use the buttons. It works? Yes, and it is definitely comfortable. There are 3 Hdmi and two USB inputs in order to connect sufficient external devices, satellite receiver, video game consoles, set top boxes, hard drives and so on. The provision of ports, in general, is more than enough to connect the TV to the outside world, but for those who do not want or cannot reach the network with the Ethernet socket there is also wi-fi to allow the TV to be completely smart.

For traditional use, i.e. limited to digital terrestrial only, the device does everything by itself, the tuner does its duty, the channels are in order and in a few moments everything works, with the EPG helping to orientate in the great sea of ​​television offer. Just as simple to connect a satellite dish and enjoy satellite programming or add a Sky receiver. But the fun begins when, once you reach the home network, you download the apps from the HiSense store, which has a wide enough offer of applications to see different programs, Italian and international: the main ones are pre-loaded in the system, but there are many that can be added. The software works very well, the response to commands is very fast, there are no problems in switching from one app to another and the images are fluid and excellent.

Some doubts about the audio performance
The menu to customize the TV is very easy to use, the options are many and in a short time the TV is ready and configured, with many options that are automatic and do not require further interventions over time. The audio may not be exactly what it should be for a television of this level, but considering the presence of Dolby Atmos, you certainly cannot be dissatisfied, even if you do not connect the device to a stereo system or a soundbar.

Ultimately, it is a great TV, which costs 799 euros and therefore has a relationship between price and quality that makes it particularly interesting: it is a product that can give satisfaction to those who want a screen for video games as well as those who watch movies all the time and need a device ready to switch-off.
