- Hisense takes another leap in Mini-LED innovation with greater brightness and clarity
- Meeting the ever-increasing demand for bigger screens, range of sizes available across entire range with 43-inches all the way up to an incredible 110-inches
- VIDAA U7, Hisense’s latest proprietary TV operating system featured across full UHD and ULED TV range
At CES 2024®, Hisense Australia has unveiled its significantly enhanced Mini-LED TV range for 2024, alongside an all-new soundbar range. With a commitment to innovation and quality, Hisense continues to redefine the future of home entertainment with its latest line-up.
ULED redefined: Raising the benchmark
Hisense’s 2024 TV line-up continues to reshape home entertainment standards, once again levelling up the technologies which define the ULED benchmark for 2024. Boasting Mini-LED visuals at its core, this collection of premium technologies represents the most innovative TV benchmark for Hisense to-date, including the flagship UXAU as well as the U8 and U7 Series.
With Hisense’s leading-three models now controlled with an all-new solar remote for 2024, customers will also delight at the inclusion of QLED Quantum Dot, Dolby Vision IQ and 144Hz native as standard for the ULED range. The addition of IMAX Enhanced Certification to this collection – previously only available for the U8 Series and above – will ensure visuals from content on apps such as Disney+ are spectacular.
For gaming enthusiasts, the new range just makes sense. This year, Hisense’s Game Mode Pro will feature across the U7 Series (U7NAU) and above1, ensuring it’s as simple as plugging in a next-gen gaming console to activate the essential features needed for the ultimate gaming experience. Better yet, the new Hisense Game Bar conveniently pops up in place of the usual on-screen settings when gaming consoles or PCs are in-use, allowing gamers to see, at-a-glance, which features are active and even track the current frames per second (FPS).
“Each year, we commit to delivering greater value to our customers through our advanced, premium technologies. With our elevated ULED benchmark, this year’s range gives customers confidence that they are buying technology that is at the height of innovation in home entertainment,” said Gideon Lui, Head of Marketing, Hisense ANZ.
“The 2024 Hisense Mini-LED TV range delivers a vivid viewing experience, even in the sunlit and airy living spaces of Australian homes. With impressive brightness and clarity, along with an expansive suite of features, owners of our new and premium range will enjoy Hisense’s best Mini-LED TV viewing experience yet,” continued Lui.
More Mini-LED: Australian living rooms to benefit from premium tech in even more sizes
Spearheading Hisense’s TV offering in 2024, the UXAU – which features Mini-LED X technology and boasts exceptional brightness and clarity thanks to the sheer number of backlights and dimming zones – will now be available in two additional screen sizes.
With big screen popularity continuing strongly for Hisense, a flagship and range-topping 110-inch UXAU will be introduced for those who want the most premium TV viewing experience Hisense has to offer at a ground-breaking size. Equally, following demand from customers with smaller living spaces, a 65-inch model is also being introduced.
On from the flagship UX, the popular U8 Series – boasting Mini-LED Pro technology – will be available in a larger size of 85-inches too, joining options ranging from 55-inches and up. Additionally, the U8 Series also now features a new, streamlined aesthetic for 2024, with the model’s audio capabilities located towards the rear of the unit, utilising up-firing speakers and a built-in subwoofer for an immersive audio experience.
Under-the-hood, the technologies underpinning the U8NAU have significantly evolved too. Now boasting 1,000+ dimming zones and up to 2,000 nits of brightness – formerly 500+ and 1,300 respectively in 2023 – customers will benefit from an impressive uplift in contrast, clarity, and control from the U8 Series.
Closing out the premium ULED range, the U7 Series will continue to be offered in screen sizes from 55-inches, up to an impressive 100-inches. Throughout the range, Hisense has tripled the model’s number of dimming zones over the outgoing model, with the 300+ built into the U7NAU bringing enhanced levels of contrast overall.
Beyond the ULED line up, Hisense’s new U6 Series will offer highly competitive and attainable entry into Mini-LED, providing an affordable option still packed with premium features. Combined with Hisense’s wider range of UHD TVs, the breadth of options further delivers on the brand’s commitment to offer innovation and choice for everyone.
Notably, 2024 will see Hisense continue to deliver an exceptional range of big screen TVs, with several premium models now featuring options for 100-inch and 110-inch screen sizes, following increasing demand from both retailers and customers. In line with this, Hisense is introducing a new, highly attainable 100-inch model, the 100Q7NAU, which features 144hz QLED quantum-dot and full array backlit screen. A perfect option for price conscious buyers seeking a super-sized big screen with outstanding image quality.
“Our commitment to innovation drives us to continually redefine industry standards. The 2024 range demonstrates our dedication to delivering unmatched home entertainment experiences. With advancements in Mini-LED technology and offering the opportunity for our customers to go even bigger, we’re thrilled to bring a new level of immersive entertainment to Australian homes at attainable prices,” Lui said.

Introducing Hisense’s new enveloping audio
To match the visual excellence of the 2024 TV range, the new soundbar range is designed to elevate the viewing experience with immersive sound that captivates, adapting to and enhancing a range of content – from sport and blockbusters, through to news programs and music.
Boasting two new soundbars for the 2024 line up, the hero AX5120 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos Soundbar features seven speakers and improved sound direction with dedicated up-firing speakers for spatial audio, with a centre speaker designated for dialogue to ensure crisp and clear dictation.
Beyond dialogue, the soundbar delivers greater overall audio clarity, with Hisense’s own Pure Surround sound technology, Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity and the convenience of EzPlay. This final feature enables the use of one remote for a Hisense TV and soundbar pairing, when two products are combined2. Conveniently, the soundbar can also fit aesthetically within the adjustable height of select Hisense 2024 TVs which feature adjustable legs and centre stand.
Offering seven tailored sound modes to make quality audio as accessible and seamless as possible, customers can benefit from customised audio profiles based on content – optimising the sound source from different media for the perfect listening experience.

“Combining the strength of our ULED line-up and an improved user experience with VIDAA U7, alongside an impressive soundbar offering – we could not be more proud of the Hisense offering for Australian customers in 2024. We continue to listen to our customers and respond accordingly – this year’s range makes premium features available to more customers at a time when hip pocket pressure is at an all-time high. We’re focusing on what matters most – making those premium features relevant to our customers and easy to use,” Lui concluded.
