The top Tech items are shown in our TV Guides for the main Shopping TV channels and QVC features Hisense as the most popular brand. The latest demo was a 58″ Hisense with advanced features such as automatic setup for sports shows. The price this time was about £500 and features 2 tiny support legs below the TV screen. This is the most basic support for TVs and for extremely large TVs, too. I don’t prefer this style at all. I prefer the crescent moon shape below the Hisense TV I ordered from the Richer Sounds website and got an extended 6-year warranty coverage at that time. The other option would be from John Lewis.
While QVC explains features in detail, we can only assess if we view on our TVs at home which have been subject to our customised settings hoping to get rid of extremely black backgrounds seen in various films and TV shows. I’ve tried repeatedly to improve things for different TV and Internet devices as well as whatever SCART and HDMI access I get at home. The QVC TV demo showed the same dark night view that I get now and then. So maybe YouTube videos offer better advice about various settings being too high or low or automatically set instead. Audio and Video changes for the TV channels as well as for Sky or Virgin Media set-top boxes with their own settings. Then there are other set-top or Internet devices that may need to be customised.
I learned that TV showrooms have a TV showroom setup as well but these are usually for daytime viewing anyway. So we may use a DVD Recorder with the HDMI setting out to the 4K TVs to learn what’s working if we play a dark section in a recording on the recorder or from Sky as we can rewind and repeat to test again.
The alternative workaround is a switch off TV and disconnect the electric plug for a few minutes to help the processing power to work better. Hisense offers a quad processor or multi-task way of getting better results and especially so for thousands of colours to be view and for the processors not to lag behind the action sequences.
Home trials are great if we are willing to invest a morning or an afternoon testing the ways to customise but nobody likes that when trying to watch evening films or TV shows. Be aware of different setting to switch the screen format such as Settings, Pictures, Screen Format 4:3, 16:9 and zoom options for the older TV shows and films as well. However, YouTube is not that easy to switch to full screen widths.
By the way, some Smart TVs have the user-guides in the TVs rather than providing us with the paper versions. So use YouTube if that helps, too. Video Record or save downloads when you can.
