Hisense actually runs an old version of ANDROID TV (release 11), which is 5 years out of date and long superseded by ANDROID 13, which itself has been deprecated by Google and replaced by GOOGLE TV. You'll only discover this by digging into the system settings because Google apparently changed the name of Android TV to Google TV! When I spoke with Hisense clueless customer support, they told me that ALL of their TV's still use this old, old OS TV version.
I purchased my 55" U6K on Oct 25, 2023 from Amazon and it had been manufactured just a few weeks before. Yet, when I checked this brand new TV, the OS security patch level was only updated to Feb 5 2023 (8 months out of date).
I hadn't checked in a while but just looked and I see that my "SmartTV" security patch level is now updated all the way to Nov 5 2023 (gee, thanks) and the kernel is now at Feb 5 2024, so security is currently 9 months out of date and the kernel 6 months. This doesn't sound very "smart"!
I sometimes wonder if there are any vectors that hackers can take advantage of through SmartTV's, given that they are an entry point to your network and the only firewall protection is on the router. If so, I am sure that Hisense TV's would be a good candidate to explore, given how far behind they stay in updates.
I wouldn't buy a TV using Google TV OS and I am unlikely to buy another Hisense TV.
