Motion is decent on the U7K with no obvious issues encountered playing 24fps material which is displayed with the correct pulldown applied, and 50Hz broadcast is also decent with no obvious frame skipping or micro stutters seen. Adding in motion interpolation and the U7K does look smooth, but there are also visible artefacts seen around fast-moving objects. Soap Opera Effect is also seen when using any of the modes that add interpolation. The most recent in AI processing technology is used by the Hisense quad core Hi-View Engine. Frame by frame, automatically fine-tuning each frame's resolution, brightness, contrast, colour, motion, depth, and detail results in an image that is vivid and lifelike. This is done in real-time. The Hi-View Engine's AI processing capacity also allows it to upsample information to a 4k quality image with clarity, sharpness, and lifelike detail. There are plenty of Mini LED solutions that mainly have the same features, but slightly different brightness and HDR tone mapping on offer. We really haven’t reviewed many TVs that compete directly with the Hisense U7K but we do have the TCL C845 in for review at the same time and it is perfect for a comparison. And this brings us to the contrast performance of the Hisense U7K and in HDR picture modes we measured on/off contrast at 5249:1 with local dimming set to high and 4102:1 with it set to off. This is good for such a TV at this level of the market, but the dynamic range is not huge and the tone mapping employed does clip detail in the brightest reaches of the image.ARRAffinity cookie is set by Azure app service, and allows the service to choose the right instance established by a user to deliver subsequent requests made by that user.
