Televisions are not something we buy every day, or even every year. Many of us can go on a decade or more without upgrading the TV. If that sounds like you, I confess, it’s also me, your friendly YouTube tech blogger. It's been about 12 years since I bought a television set, and a lot has changed.
Primarily televisions have become much more versatile, much higher quality, and with much improved resolution. 4KTV is the chief advancement in TV technology and it'a already a few years old. I recently had a chance to install a brand-new 4K Hisense Roku TV in my living room. I'll tell you all about the 2019 Hisense Roku 4K television, Model: 43-R6-109, which I’ll just call the R6 from here on in. I’ll talk about the set up process, the special features, what the video quality looks like, and whether it's been a worthy upgrade for me.
The Hisense Roku 4K TV comes with a remote control, which will be familiar to any of you with a Roku Streaming stick or similar. While some models do come with a voice control remote, this one did not. But that's okay, because I can add voice control with the Roku remote app. More on that in a sec.
Using the Roku Remote app on Hisense R6 4K UHD Smart Roku TV
The Roku mobile app is an alternative remote for your Roku TV. You can use all the same remote controls as you’d typically find on a handheld remote, like switching the channel, play/pause, or to navigate around the screen. You can also access a keyboard for when it comes time to type in your passwords and lengthy email addresses.
Now let’s talk video quality.
One of the first things you’ll need to do to begin enjoying 4K content is to enable the higher resolution stream on Netflix. Netflix has a tonne of 4K TV shows and movies, but you can’t get it without paying for more bandwidth. It costs about $3/month more.
The video quality on this TV is really good. It’s hard to find any fault with any 4K TV right now, particularly when coming up from an old HD TV; everything looks new and amazingly clear, crisp and detailed.
After a couple weeks of use I can say the video picture is top quality; I haven’t noticed any problems with it and I find it to be sharp and detailed, text looks crisp and the colours seem phenomenal. It even handles glare pretty well. The R6 is in a bright room and most of the time, though the room was bright, the glare didn’t affect the picture. Overall I’m quite happy with it so far,
Screen Mirroring on Hisense Roku 4K TV
It’s possible to mirror your phone or tablet’s screen on your new 2019 4K Hisense Roku R6 TV.
To do it you need to begin in the Roku Remote app.
From the bottom menu, choose Photos+ then choose Videos. The app will load all the videos from your phone. Choose the video you want to play and tap Play. The video will begin streaming on your TV. This worked like a charm on both my Apple iPhone and the Google Pixel 3.
Adding Google Home & Amazon Alexa to Hisense Roku 4K TV
It’s supposed to be possible to add Google Home and Google Assistant — and Amazon Alexa functionality to your TV. If you’ve read about it, it’s important to note it seems the digital assistant features aren’t enabled in Canada yet.
Upscaling on 2019 Hisense Roku R6 4K TV
The 2019 Hisense Roku R6 TV has upscaling technology built in. This essentially means the TV will increase the look and quality of non-4K content to 4K-like video. Thankfully, the upscaling on the TV is automatic; there is nothing to adjust and nothing for you to do; if the R6 can improve the video quality it does. You win.
After watching a bunch of HD video on the 4K Hisense Roku TV I can definitely say it looked to my eye like it was in 4K. The upscaling seems to do a great job at making lower resolution video look better.
Overall review of 2019 Hisense Roku R6 TV
Overall, I'm pretty happy with this TV. It's a huge improvement on my old TV.
I like the slim design, tiny bezels, easy to use Roku interface and the overall video quality is great. Plus, the ability to customize the screen and interface is nice. Any cons? Not being able to get Google to work is a bit disappointing, but I'm sure that will change, and I can update the channel with a review and how-to about that function down the road. For now, if you're looking for a good quality, affordable 4K TV, I can recommend the Hisense R6 4K UHD Smart Roku TV. It sells for about $369.99 (under 400) at Costco Canada.
