Delightful ULED Back-Light
A ULED (Ultra LED) screen delivers a wealth of additional TV tech that goes beyond the 4K UHD package. Local Dimming dims specific areas of the panel to deliver better blacks and unbelievable picture depth.

4K Ultra High Definition
To respond to screens getting bigger, brands have packed their screens with more pixels. This 50-inch screen has four times the number of pixels than 1080p HD TVs, delivering stunning realism, natural motion and incredible detail. Experience this high-spec picture across a range of broadcasts, movies, sports and more thanks to 4K upscaling. As it converts lower resolution content to near-4K quality, anything you watch on the big screen will be truly extraordinary.

High Dynamic Range
Forays into colour-boosting High Dynamic Range (HDR) have begun, and Hisense are no exception. With its 10-bit panel, this set can show over a billion individual colours to deepen your view and shows shades you’ve never seen in home entertainment before. Colour, contrast, and brightness are all expanded for a richer, deeper picture that's closer to real life. Play beautiful HDR content on your N6800, experiencing the next era of television, and future-proof your home entertainment set-up as HDR becomes standard.

Wide Colour Gamut
Bringing your content to stunningly vivid life is Hisense's Wide Colour Gamut (WCG) technology. It expands the range of possible colours beyond the standard grade so blues are richer, reds more striking and greens much lusher. The result is a beautifully vibrant picture that does accurate justice to real-world colours, and every shade in between.

Sensational Smart Platform
This set’s Hisense Smart platform is run by a rapid quad-core processor, so you’ll browse seamlessly. Do anything from streaming 4K shows on Netflix and Amazon, keep up with the weather on Accuweather or play clips on YouTube. Other available apps include Wuaki.tv, Plex, Facebook and Twitter.*

Freeview Play

This will give effortless scroll back so you never miss a second of your favourite shows.

Perfect partners
With TVs getting slimmer and built-in speakers getting smaller, choosing the right sound system is more important than ever. Soundbars enhance your TV’s sound quality and add that extra audio punch to all your movies, games and TV programmes. More affordable and easier to set up than a full size speaker system, they don’t compromise on quality either.
