FAQs
What is OLED technology and what are its benefits?
OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) is a display technology where each individual pixel emits its own light. This allows for perfect blacks (by turning off pixels completely), infinite contrast, and vibrant colors, providing an incredibly detailed and lifelike picture.
Which smart platform does this TV use?
This Hisense TV uses the VIDAA smart platform, offering quick and easy access to a variety of popular streaming services and apps.
Is this TV good for gaming?
Yes, with its Game Mode PRO feature, the TV is optimized for gaming. It minimizes input lag, providing a smoother and more responsive experience crucial for fast-paced games.
Can I adjust the viewing angle of the TV?
Yes, the TV comes with a convenient swivel stand that allows you to easily adjust the screen's angle to achieve the best viewing position from different parts of your room.
Are all streaming apps available universally?
No, some apps and services, including certain tuner functionalities, are exclusive to the UK. Availability may vary by region and is subject to change or discontinuation by third-party providers.
How do I update the TV's firmware?
Firmware updates are typically managed through the TV's settings menu, under a section like 'System' or 'About TV'. Ensure your TV is connected to the internet, and follow the on-screen instructions for checking and installing updates.
How should I clean the TV screen?
To clean the screen, use a soft, dry microfiber cloth. For fingerprints or smudges, lightly dampen the cloth with distilled water or a specialized screen cleaning solution. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
What does Dynamic Tone Mapping PRO do?
Dynamic Tone Mapping PRO enhances HDR content by optimizing the tone curve on a frame-by-frame basis. This ensures that dark and bright areas of the picture are displayed with greater accuracy and detail, making HDR content look more lifelike.
Troubleshooting
TV won't turn on
Check if the power cord is securely plugged into both the TV and a working power outlet. Try a different outlet or press the power button on the TV itself, not just the remote.
No picture or sound from connected device (e.g., game console)
Ensure the device is powered on. Verify that the correct HDMI input is selected on the TV. Check the HDMI cable connections at both the TV and the device.
Smart apps (Netflix, Disney+) are not loading or buffering
Check your internet connection by navigating to the TV's network settings. Restart your Wi-Fi router and the TV. Ensure the app is updated to its latest version via the VIDAA platform settings.
Poor picture quality or blurry images
Ensure the content source is high quality (e.g., 4K content for 4K TV). Check the picture settings on your TV (brightness, contrast, sharpness). For lower resolution content, AI Super Resolution 2.0 should enhance it, but original source quality is key.
Game Mode PRO isn't activating or games feel laggy
Ensure your game console is connected via an HDMI port. Game Mode PRO should activate automatically. Check if there are any specific game mode settings within the TV's menu that need to be enabled. Make sure your console's video output settings are optimized for the TV.
Swivel stand is stiff or not moving smoothly
Info needed: [Specific maintenance for swivel stand]. Generally, ensure the stand is properly seated and free of obstructions. Do not force movement if resistance is felt.
