Hisense: celebrating 55 years ahead of the game

Hisense.

The world has undergone exponential changes since Hisense began its journey in 1969. Yet, one constant remains: Hisense's dedication to developing the most innovative and forward-thinking consumer products. Over its 55-year history, Hisense has revolutionised our interaction with personal devices, from televisions to smart refrigerators.

Hisense has not only significantly expanded its global footprint but also achieved breakthroughs in technological foundation. The company's development of AI picture quality chips were catalysts for growth, enabling Hisense to enter new markets and enhance its technological capabilities. As a result, Hisense's overseas revenue has more than doubled since 2019, while in 2023 Hisense Group's revenue surpassed $28.7 billion USD.

This significant achievement was revealed at the Group's 55th-anniversary celebrations, at which the company also unveiled its ambitious future goals. With a focus on innovation, Hisense has dedicated approximately 5 per cent of its annual revenue to R&D, with 30 per cent of that investment directed towards pre-research. By prioritising user needs and customer satisfaction, Hisense ensures that its products and technologies serve users and create value.

And it’s only just getting started. Its latest devices have a focus on user-centric technology and ultimate quality to create unforgettable experiences day in, day out. We’re excited to see what the next 55 years have in store…

Hisense has committed to elevating the home entertainment viewing experience to the next level with the development of its 100-inch big-screen TVs. Film lovers will be in cinema paradise, while gamers will reach new levels of immersion in virtual worlds.

As the official global partner of the AAA title Black Myth: Wukong, Hisense has taken gaming engagement to new levels. Gamers have never experienced a game world quite like this, with vibrant colors and stunning 4K resolution at immense scale. The Hisense U7 and E7 PRO are the officially-recommended TVs for the game – features like the 144Hz Game Mode PRO and Quantum Dot Color bring the game world to life in new and previously unimaginable ways.

There’s even an exclusive Black Myth: Wukong picture mode designed specifically for the game. With 100 inches of screen presence optimised especially for this title, gamers will enjoy enhanced HDR, precise color calibration and improved dark detail, alongside cavernous bass and immersive Dolby audio technology via the built-in subwoofer. It’s the full package, both visually and sonically.

But Hisense’s big-screen TVs aren’t just ideal for gaming and movies – they elevate the sports viewing experience, too. This is illustrated by Hisense’s collaboration with Real Madrid to launch a limited edition 100-inch TV and more. Hisense is also the Official Partner of NBA in North America. Earlier in October, the 110UX Championship Edition, an ultra-premium addition to Hisense’s innovative ULED X lineup, was launched to coincide with the start of NBA season.

With unparalleled picture quality and immersive sound technology to heighten excitement, this will transport the stadium experience into families’ front rooms all over the world.
