Currently running a Hisense H49N5500UK (49” from around 2020) in the living room. It’s been solid and still works fine, but I know it’s pretty basic by today’s standards (edge-lit LED, 60Hz, no real HDR etc).

My setup:

PS5

Sky Q 2TB (UHD)

BT TV box

Firestick 4K

Usage is mainly:

Football / sports

Streaming (Netflix, Prime etc.)

Casual PS5 gaming

I’m not a hardcore gamer, but I do want things to look smooth and decent.

Budget is roughly £400 to £600 (maybe a little more if it’s really worth it). I don’t want to spend big money unless the upgrade is actually noticeable.

I’m also looking to stay around 49” to 55”, not planning to go much bigger than that.

Things I’ve been looking at:

Hisense E7Q Pro (55”)

Hisense U7 / U7 Pro (Mini-LED)

Samsung QLED / Neo QLED options

A few LG NanoCell / standard LED models

From what I can tell:

Cheap TVs (£200–£300) don’t seem worth it

Mid-range looks a bit “meh” upgrade-wise

Mini-LED seems like the proper jump

Questions:

Would something like the Hisense E7 Pro actually feel like a big upgrade from what I’ve got?

Is it worth stretching to Mini-LED (like U7 Pro), or is that overkill for my usage?

Would you upgrade in my position or just keep the current TV for now?

Appreciate any advice ]]> Central https://www.cableforum.uk/board/showthread.php?t=33713819
