Hisense 50-Inch Class R6090G Roku 4K UHD Smart TV with Alexa Compatibility 50R6090G 2020 Model

For the price, it's hard to complain about what you get with this 43" TV. It has a good picture, a small frame bezel and is very lightweight. It's fast. After setup, it powers on and is usable in about 2 seconds. Also, the Roku unit in the 4K TV models has their best, snappiest hardware so the user interface on this TV is incredibly fast too. I occasionally use my TVs as a secondary PC monitor so I also bought this model over others due to the reviews showing it to be a good PC monitor with low input lag. (I have not tested yet) RE: POOR REVIEWS: I've seen people complaining about Roku charging them $. As a 12 year user of Roku devices, I have no clue what these people are talking about. It's free. As for "ads" being shown, just to clarify, it's just ads for more channels/apps to ad, they are occasional tiny little boxes off to the side... it's not like buying a Fire tablet where it has a random ad every time you turn it on. It's just offers to subscribe to Hulu and whatnot. This TV has no bluetooth. People seem to be surprised, so don't be, it isn't there. This is a low price, bare bones 4K tv with a nice interface. Don't expect the moon from it and you should be pleased. Remember, 4K for $250. (!) The remote is just a generic Roku remote. Which means BASIC. Volume is on the side. If you want buttons for picture/sound (etc), you will hate this basic remote. It doesn't feel cheap, but it lacks the 50 buttons you may be used to. I actually like only having a few buttons as I was already running my previous TV from my Roku Stick remote. RE: brand: Hisense is unknown to me until now, but a little research reveals that they bought up Toshiba's TV division and used to be who made what were known as "Sharp" TVs until last year (and a lot more if you look), so not some unknown player at all. NOTE: for variable volume out: This TV only delivers a fixed volume from the audio output (optical), so you have to use the 3.5mm "headphone" jack if you wish to control external speaker volume with the TV remote. I just ran a 3.5mm-to-RCA cord to my bookshelf 2.1 setup. Read more

My wife and I lived in a hotel for a month while we looked for a new home after moving across country. We got used to a 47" TV in bedroom. So when I set up our new 43" Hisense, my wife was a little disappointed (even though the one we used to have in the bedroom at the old house was an ancient 35"). I like it just fine. And I REALLY liked how light it is. Just 18 lbs! For an old guy, this is a big issue. I bought a nice support table/rack for it and hanging it on the top was a breeze. (This is in stark contrast to the trouble I had with my 55" in the living room that I could hardly pick up). The picture looks great to me and I watch from far enough away (about seven feet) not to be distracted by really fine detail. Color is good. And the sound is decent, too. I bought a small sound bar for it and it is superior - no big surprise there. But it isn't by as much as I expected. I could probably have saved that money. I was a little nervous when I realized the only remote in the box was a ROKU remote. And it took me a while to find the volume control on the side of the remote (though it didn't matter once the sound bar was installed). And that's the only reason I've deducted a star. I couldn't figure out how to get the ROKU remote to control the sound bar. I visited every audio setting I could find on the menu system without luck. I would love to not need the sound bar remote. But I have to do it with my big one downstairs, too. In general the menu offers you all the things you would normally look for on the TV remote. The Source button that I missed turns out not to be an issue at all. There are HDMI port selections available right on the screen, so I can switch from ROKU to my cable box with one click. Overall a great experience for a modest investment. Read more

Great value delivered very quickly good quality! So before taxes this 43 inch TV was $228.99 it comes with a Roku in her face and the 4G or 5G technology that is brand new to smart TVs we really don’t have any complaints I think it was an excellent bye great value for money the picture quality on it does have adjusting where you can make it brighter you can tweak how many pixels there are I am and that is the one downfall of the TV! It’s not that the TV itself is difficult to set up but it’s very time-consuming and it’s time consuming to the point that it’s obnoxious just to get it up and running get it online and hooked up to our cable I would say it took about an hour and a half and most of that was going through setting up a Roku account to activate this having to put down a credit card then creating passcodes user accounts and downloading any type of apps or services that you would like to use on the TV it’s been a process and it’s not that it takes long for you to do it although you do have to confirm emails and it has a two step verification process is that the TV itself downloaded information and updated the software to configure with the cable box on its own and that took about 30 minutes I recommend if you get this TV that you truly Use it as a smart TV because with the Roku platform this is definitely made more for streaming versus cable Read more
