Rank #3 in Best 65 Inch TV 2026: 10 Ranked, and Two Contradict Their Own Specs
Hisense 65E78QTUK QLED Smart TV
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Hisense 65E78QTUK is a 65-inch QLED set listed at £499.00, and it sits third in this guide of ten 65-inch TVs. Its listing carries a rating of 4.4 from 522 ratings. On the point where other listings in this guide trip over themselves, this one holds: the title says Dolby Vision and the HDR Format Supported field also says Dolby Vision. Title and spec table agree.
Where the listing goes quiet is contrast. The Contrast Ratio field reads 'High' — a word, not a figure, so there is no number here to set against anything else. The same table gives the backlight simply as LED, while the first bullet describes the set as 'direct lit full array', which is not the same claim. Everything on this page is taken from the Amazon listing as it stands; we have not measured this television.
How those 522 ratings break down

Questions people ask
Does the Hisense 65E78QTUK support Dolby Vision?
Yes. Dolby Vision appears in the title, in the HDR Format Supported field and in the fifth bullet, so this listing does not contradict itself on that point.
What is the refresh rate?
The listing states 60 Hz. It gives the figure twice, as 'Refresh Rate: 60 Hz' and as 'Display Refresh Rate in Hertz: 60'.
How many HDMI ports does it have?
The spec table lists 3 total HDMI ports, with HDMI and USB given as the hardware interface and audio input.
What does the listing say about contrast?
It says 'High'. No numeric contrast ratio is given, so there is nothing here to compare with the brightness figures quoted elsewhere in this guide.
Which apps are named?
The Internet Applications field lists Disney+, YouTube and Netflix. The title also mentions Freely, which the applications field does not list.
What are the dimensions and weight?
Item Weight is 22.5 kg and Item Dimensions D x W x H are 7.6D x 145.3W x 83.8H centimetres.
