Many people may want to indulge in rewards such as electronic devices at the end of the year, whether for Christmas or post-Christmas.
We have selected a few tips for enriching personal equipment. Of course, it all depends on the possibility of investing a particular amount of funds.
A Premium Pick
Hisense has launched the industry-leading Hisense UXKQ Min-LED TV series (also called ULED X). The 85-inch screen uses innovative Mini-LED X technology, in which miniature “LEDs” create small illuminated squares, which are dimming zones. Controlling them achieves a higher contrast ratio and exact details. The number of zones is 5000, and the brightness is over 2000 nits. Based on the analysis of the incoming scene, the backlight intensity is then regulated to achieve a perfect image. All this is controlled by a new 16-bit artificial intelligence chipset (Hi-View Engine X) that works with images in real-time. CineStage X Surround technology for multidimensional acoustics is also unique. Of course, there are many other technological gadgets.
Great Value Great Quality
