We used the following calibration settings to test the 65-inch Hisense U6SF Pro, but they're also valid for the 55-, 75-, 85-, and 100-inch models. Our settings apply to most types of content, except for gaming or use as a PC monitor, which requires a few additional changes, listed below.
These settings are meant to provide a starting point; they're not meant to be copied 1:1. They provide the most accurate image in a moderately lit room, but you should adjust them to match your personal preferences and viewing conditions.
SDR
Below are the settings we used to calibrate the Hisense U6SF Pro in SDR. We chose the Filmmaker Mode picture preset, as it delivers the most accurate image out of the box. All other picture quality settings were left at their defaults.
- Picture Mode: Filmmaker Mode
- Contrast: 50
- Gamma: 0
- Color Temperature: Warm 1
Brightness - Accuracy Preferred
The backlight settings should be adjusted in SDR based on your viewing conditions. These settings deliver the most accurate image in a completely dark room.
- Backlight: 7 (100 nits)
- Backlight: 24 (200 nits)
- Local Dimming: High
Brightness - Brightness Preferred
You should adjust the Backlight setting to match your viewing setup. If you're in a brighter room, simply increase the backlight level to a setting that's comfortable to watch for you.
- Backlight: Max (adjust as needed)
- Local Dimming: High
HDR
HDR is automatically enabled for native apps. Once you start playing HDR content, some of the settings change automatically. All other picture quality settings were left at their defaults.
- Picture Mode: Filmmaker Mode
- Contrast: 50
- Color Temperature: Warm 1
- Gamma: 0
Brightness - Accuracy Preferred
Below are the settings we used for HDR10 in a dark room. These settings deliver the most accurate image.
- Backlight: 100
- Local Dimming: High
Brightness - Brightness Preferred
This TV doesn't offer any brightness boosting processing features like Dynamic Tone Mapping. The above settings are also the brightest the TV can get without switching to a less accurate picture mode.
- Backlight: 100
- Local Dimming: High
HDR White Balance
The following are the results of calibrating the white balance of our unit to 6500K in HDR using the 2-point method. These settings are provided for reference only and shouldn't be copied as the calibration values vary per individual unit. If you want to try them, you'll need to enter all values shown, as all of them are active at the same time. If you have worse picture quality, simply reset them to the default values.
Gaming
When you start gaming, switch to the Game picture mode to get the lowest input lag and enable advanced gaming features. No other changes to picture quality settings are needed. You can toggle ALLM and VRR support from the Game menu within Input Settings. With ALLM enabled, the TV will automatically switch to the Game picture mode when you start playing a game.
Motion & Processing
Below are the settings we used for most of our motion and processing tests. Motion and processing can be subjective, so you should adjust these settings to your personal preferences. You might also need to adjust these settings depending on the source and specific content.
Judder
To remove judder on this TV, set the Motion Processing setting to 'Film'.
Stutter Reduction Via Interpolation
Setting Judder Reduction to '3' outputs a framerate equivalent to 30 fps, which helps to reduce stutter in 24 fps content.
White Balance Settings
The following are the results of the white balance and colorspace calibration in SDR on our unit. They are provided for reference and should not be copied, as the calibration values vary per individual unit, even for the same model and size as the TV we reviewed, due to manufacturing tolerances. If you want to try them, you will need to enter all the values shown, as all of them are active at the same time. If you end up with worse picture quality, simply reset them to the default values.
