Edit: Dead in 30 days. Was: Incredible value, works great as a monitor too
Edit:
Today the Hisense TV wouldn't turn on. I get sounds when clicking the remote, the backlight is on, but no audio via the HDMI. Tried the other inputs via the remote (e.g., Netflix), same.
I unplugged the TV for a minute, and after plugging it back in, same. I unplugged and held the power button for 30 seconds (behind the red LED on the bottom), then plugged back in. Same.
I pushed the reset button on the back on the TV, but it came back up to the same state. Tried holding the reset for 30 seconds; same.
Removed the batteries from the remote, held the power button on the remote for 30 seconds, put the batteries back in. No change.
From what I've read online, the symptoms are a main board failure, just after the device can't be returned to Amazon. It's paperweight now.
Original review:
I use the 43-inch as a monitor for my Chromebook, attached via a USB-C hub. Because it supports chroma 4:4:4 and has low latency (even without gaming mode), it works great. Text is clear and crisp. Sound is good, with solid bass; not sure what some people were complaining about. It's also much brighter than my old monitor, even though I have it set to "dark". I setup Netflix, Prime, and Plex, and everything just works. Absolutely awesome.
