The Hisense H6570F is an entry-level budget TV with decent overall performance. It has a decent picture quality with deep, uniform blacks in a dark room thanks to the high native contrast ratio. It's more suitable for a dim room where it can handle reflections well, but it can't get very bright to fight the glare of a bright room. Unfortunately, HDR performance is hurt by the low HDR peak brightness, the lack of a wide color gamut, and the lack of local dimming. On the upside, the response time is fast, so fast-moving content is displayed with minimal blur. Also, the input lag is very low, which helps the TV deliver a responsive gaming experience. Unfortunately, the amount of dirty screen effect and the poor viewing angles might disappoint sports fans.
Our Verdict
0.0
Mixed Usage
The Hisense H6500 Series is a decent TV for mixed usage. It can display deep blacks in a dark room but lacks a local dimming feature to improve picture quality. It can't get very bright to fight glare and isn't suitable for a room with a wide seating arrangement due to its poor viewing angles. On the upside, it has a great interface that gives you access to the latest apps on the Google Play Store.
The H6500 Series is a mediocre TV to watch movies. It can deliver deep, uniform blacks in a dark room, but the lack of a local dimming feature, the mediocre gray uniformity, and the inability to remove judder don't allow it to perform better. Stutter can be an issue in slow, panning shots and there's no motion interpolation feature for the soap opera effect fans.
The Hisense H6500 Series is a decent TV for watching TV shows; it fails to get bright enough to fight glare, and when displaying cable content the upscaling to 4k isn't that great. The image loses accuracy when viewed from the side, so the TV isn't ideal if you move around while watching. On the upside, the Android TV interface is great, as you get access to the latest apps on the Google Play Store.
This is a decent TV for watching sports. It's more suitable for a dim room, and a few extra lights won't hurt as the TV can handle reflections well. Although fast-moving content is crisp, the flickering backlight is causing duplications which isn't great. Unfortunately, demanding sports fans will be disappointed by the amount of dirty screen effect. Finally, the poor viewing angles make it unsuitable for watching the big game with a group of friends.
This is a great TV for playing video games. It has a low input lag when in 'Game' mode and a fast response time that delivers fast-moving content with minimal blur. Gaming on older 1080p consoles is upscaled well, but there isn't any support for advanced gaming features like FreeSync or an auto low latency mode.
The Hisense H6500 Series is a decent TV for watching HDR movies. It supports the most common HDR formats, but unfortunately can't get bright and doesn't have a wide color gamut. This means that in HDR it fails to deliver the creator's intent, so the image doesn't have the vivid colors or the bright highlights of typical HDR content.

HDR Gaming
This is a good TV for playing HDR games, mainly because of its low input lag with HDR content. It delivers deep blacks in a dark room and has a fast response time that delivers fast motion with minimal blur. On the downside, though, it lacks a wide color gamut and the necessary HDR peak brightness to offer a great HDR gaming experience.
0.0
PC Monitor
This is a decent TV for use as a PC monitor. The input lag is low and the response time is fast, so the TV delivers a responsive experience with little blur behind fast-moving content. It's free from temporary image retention or burn-in risk, but it has poor viewing angles and can't display crisp text due to its lack of support for chroma 4:4:4.
We tested the 55" H6570F (55H6570F), and we expect our results to also be valid for the 43" (43H6570F), the 50" (50H6570F), and the 65" (65H6570F) models.
If someone comes across a different type of panel or if their Hisense H6500 Series doesn't correspond to our review, let us know and we will update the review. Note that some tests such as the gray uniformity may vary between individual units.

Popular TV Comparisons
Top left: LG UM6900 (49UM6900). Bottom left: Sony X800G (XBR55X800G). Middle: Hisense H6570F (55H6570F). Top right: Samsung RU71000 (UN55RU7100). Bottom right: Toshiba Fire TV 2019 (55LF711U20).
The Hisense H6570F is an entry-level budget TV that doesn't offer impressive performance. It is, however, a decent TV for the price. See our recommendations for the best LED TVs, the best budget TVs, and the best TVs under $300.
The Hisense H6570G is only a slight upgrade over its predecessor, the Hisense H6570F. The H6570G upscales 720p and 1080p content much better, it automatically removes judder from 24p sources, and it displays proper chroma 4:4:4 if you want to use it as a PC. However, the H6570F has much better uniformity, but this may vary between units.
The Vizio V Series 2019 is better than the Hisense H6570F. The Vizio can get brighter and performs better in slightly brighter rooms than the Hisense. The Vizio also has better viewing angles despite being a VA panel and is a better choice for watching TV while walking around. Finally, the Vizio can remove judder from movies, but has a little more blur in fast-moving content.
The Toshiba Fire TV 2019 and the Hisense H6570F have very similar overall performance. The Hisense delivers deeper blacks in a dark room but can't get as bright as the Toshiba. The Toshiba is a better choice for a brighter room, while the Hisense is better for dark room viewing. Also, if you're a fan of TV shows, you should consider that the Toshiba has better upscaling of 720p content and also supports motion interpolation. The H6570F offers a more responsive gaming experience thanks to the lower input lag.
The TCL 4 Series 2019 is better than the Hisense H6570F. The TCL displays 720p cable content significantly better than the Hisense, and has a better input lag with HDR content, which is great for games. Also, the TCL can remove judder from movies but has worse black uniformity, which matters in dark scenes when in a dark room.

How We Test TVs
We buy and test dozens of TVs yearly, taking an objective, data-driven approach to deliver results you can trust. Our testing process is complex, with hundreds of individual tests that take over a week to complete. Most of our tests use specially designed test patterns that mimic real content, but we also use the same sources you have at home to ensure our results match the real-world experience. We use two main tools for our testing: a Colorimetry Research CR-100 colorimeter and a CR-250 spectroradiometer.
