The forthcoming series of 4K Ultra HD smart TVs will empower consumers to See the Incredible as Hisense delivers premium viewing experiences that outperform industry expectations.
Hisense was the fastest growing brand year over year in TV dollar sales for the six months ending Nov. 2018 among the top six brands, with growth of +52 per cent according to recent Canadian data from the NPD Group.

The recently released Hisense Dual Colour Laser TV (L10E) impressed followers of the ultra-premium TV market with a red and blue laser light source that combine to unlock a Wide Colour Gamut with an expanded and more accurate palette. Building on that award-winning pedigree and the evolution of Hisense’s exclusive ULED technology, Hisense has announced a collection of televisions that will defy expectations in 2019.
“Laser TV has proven to be the ultimate way to watch TV at home, and that has inspired us to push even harder across our full range of products debuting this year,” said James Harbec, VP Sales at Hisense Canada. “We’ve redefined the luxury TV market with Laser TV, and our 2019 products with ULED will reshape every other TV category with stunning picture quality and incredible design that’s premium inside and out.”
