If you want to step out of the regular watching style and enjoy streaming and listening with Hisense TVs of the utmost quality, then you should opt for 4K resolution. With a subscription to a cable or streaming service offering 4K content/channels or a 4K-supported streaming device, you are one step away from entering the world of realistic and exceptional watching experiences. That is, you have to enable the 4K mode on your Hisense TV.
The method for selecting the 4K resolution varies for each OS version of Hisense TVs, and certain important pre-requisite processes are involved. I have compiled them and presented them in this article for your reference.
Essential Preparations Before Turning On 4K Mode on Hisense TV
- Refer to the user manual or Hisense’s official website by searching your Hisense TV’s model number and make sure it really offers 4K support.
- Purchase a 4K HDMI cable from the Amazon website and connect it to the 4K supported HDMI port of your Hisense TV.

4K Content Not Playing on Hisense TV – Ways to Fix Up the Issue
- Check the internet speed if you cannot play 4K content on Hisense Smart TVs. If it is below 25 Mbps, the video will switch to a lower resolution or start buffering.
- In case a video is playing in 4K quality, verify whether it has 4K calibrations first.
- Check the HDMI signal format and change it to Standard if it is fixed as Enhanced. You can also try the vice versa and check if it works.
- Next, ensure your Hisense TV is 4K compatible and you are using the actual 4K HDMI cable.
- If all the required conditions are satisfied, restart your Hisense TV to fix any temporary issues and regain 4K streaming authority.
- The most important thing among all these factors in streaming 4K content is keeping Hisense TV’s firmware up-to-date.
