Our take on the Hisense TV 58R63G

The Hisense R63G is a 4K LED smart TV that runs the Roku TV platform, so its home screen, search and app store are Roku's rather than Hisense's own. It supports HDR playback and covers the basics well: three HDMI inputs, a tuner and the full set of major streaming apps. It suits budget-minded buyers who want a big-screen 4K set with a simple, familiar interface. Against rivals at the same tier, it trades the brighter panels and wider color of pricier sets for Roku's ease of use and a low entry point.

Questions and answers

Is the Hisense R63G a Roku TV or a Google TV?

It runs the Roku TV platform, so you get Roku's home screen, search and app store rather than Google TV or Hisense's own system.

Does it support HDR?

Yes, it accepts HDR content, but the LED panel's limited brightness means the effect is subtle compared with brighter sets.

How many HDMI ports does it have?

It has three HDMI inputs, enough for a console, a streaming stick and a soundbar or player.

Is it good for gaming?

It handles casual console play, but it lacks the high refresh rate and low-latency gaming features found on dedicated gaming TVs.

Do I need a soundbar?

Many owners add one. The built-in speakers are considered the weakest part of the set for movies and music.

Who is this TV best for?

Buyers who want a large 4K screen with a simple interface for a bedroom, den or casual living-room setup.
