This 98 inch Hisense QD5 stands out as a huge screen for around $1,000, with solid value for casual viewing and decent specs for the price. The picture gets credit for strong color and very low black level, which suggests good contrast for the class. The main drawback is Google TV performance, which is described as slow on some setups and sometimes helped by resets, cache clearing, or using a separate streaming box. It reads as a big, budget friendly option if you can live with the smart TV software.

  • The 98-inch size can make the set feel like strong value when paired with the right setup.

  • The TV can deliver decent casual viewing performance alongside its QLED 4K specs.

  • A full reset of Google TV devices can improve responsiveness after Android version updates.

  • Manual cache clearing for Google Play Store and YouTube can reduce Google TV lag without using the memory optimizer app.

  • The operating system experience can be poor enough that using an external set-top box may be preferable.

  • The TV's black level can be extremely low, which can limit contrast for home theatre use.

  • Google TV can feel slow and may require Wi‑Fi toggling in settings after updates.

  • The hardware may struggle to run the operating system smoothly, leading to performance complaints.

I've had my Google TV for about 1.5 years and honestly I do not like the OS. Maybe it is my TV brand/make specifically (TCL 75-Inch Q65 QLED) but the OS is slow, takes what seems like a long time when I turn the TV on, and for some reason, since an update 2 months ago, the wifi isn't recognized when I turn the tv on and I have to go to settings and turn wifi off and on to get it to work (it is not a signal issue).
Not the os issue...

TV brand issue, they supply hardware that can barely run the os.

You got to use a separate a andorid box or Onn box or fire stick , the memory gets jammed up with spyware and other junk to know what your habits are , that's why you can't find dumb tvs anymore
