Hisense on Thursday expanded its range of smart QLED TVs in India by launching its new models that feature full array local dimming backed by Quantum Dot technology. The built-in technology is claimed to help deliver brighter whites, deeper blacks, and an enhanced contrast ratio by controlling the backlight evenly across the screen. The new smart QLED TV series by the Chinese manufacturer features three distinct variants that are called the Hisense 55U6G, Hisense 65U6G, and Hisense 75U80G, with 55-, 65-, and 75-inch sizes, respectively. The new QLED TVs run on Android TV 10 and support Dolby Atmos sound as well as Dolby Vision display technologies.
