Hisense 50" 50E78QTUK PRO 144Hz QLED Smart AI TV (Dolby Atmos, FreeSync Premium PRO)

The essentials

If you’re shopping for a 50" QLED smart TV with proper gaming-minded features, the Hisense 50" 50E78QTUK PRO is built around that idea. On paper, it leans into fast motion performance (144Hz), reduced lag and smoother gameplay through VRR, plus an AI upscaler meant to improve what you watch day to day.

The display approach is also worth noting: it’s a direct lit full array design, with a grid of individual LEDs positioned directly behind the screen. That combination is aimed at cleaner contrast and punchier colours rather than just brightness alone. It’s not a spec sheet fantasy—this model is clearly trying to cover both entertainment and gaming without forcing you into separate setups.

Still, it’s worth tempering expectations: “best possible” depends quite a lot on your room lighting and the sort of content you watch (especially if you mainly stream darker scenes).
