The HQLED panel excels with high-quality 4K streams and supports Dolby Vision and HDR10+, while AI Picture Quality features like AI HDR Enhancer and AI Noise Reduction help clean up lower-quality content, though motion processing and enhancements are best adjusted manually for natural results.", "body_md": "I’ve been using the 65-inch [Haier](/tech/111112/haier-unveils-p7-pro-smart-tv-lineup-with-premium-sound-and-ai-features) P7 Pro, and the biggest adjustment isn't to the picture quality or the software, it's simply getting used to having a 65-inch screen in the room. Once you do, going back to a smaller television feels noticeably less immersive. The slim bezels help here because there isn't much surrounding the panel to distract from what you're watching. The design itself is fairly straightforward rather than flashy, which I actually prefer for a TV this large. It doesn't try to become the centrepiece of the room when the screen is already doing that job. The 65-inch version costs Rs 67,990, so this isn't a television I'd describe as an impulse purchase, but it is aimed at people who want a genuinely large screen rather than just another smart TV.\n\n## The picture looks best when the source is good\n\nThe HQLED panel is at its best with good-quality streaming content. Colours have plenty of depth, particularly in movies and shows with elaborate production design, and the panel covers up to 93% of the DCI-P3 colour gamut. Dolby Vision and HDR10+ support are useful when the content actually supports them, with HDR scenes benefiting from better-looking highlights and shadow detail.\n\nBut, as is usually the case with modern TVs, the logo-heavy feature list doesn't tell the whole story. Feed it a good 4K stream and the picture can look excellent; feed it poor-quality or heavily compressed content and you can still see the limitations of the source. Haier's AI Picture Quality features, including AI HDR Enhancer, AI Colour Boost and AI Noise Reduction, try to compensate for that. They can make lower-quality content look cleaner, but I wouldn't consider them a substitute for a good source. In fact, I'd spend some time adjusting the picture settings rather than simply leaving every enhancement switched on. Too much processing can make the image look less natural.\n\n## Sports are where the motion features make more sense\n\nIf you watch a lot of cricket or football, the P7 Pro's motion capabilities are more relevant than they might initially sound. The TV supports AI Motion and MEMC, and these are intended to reduce blur and judder when things start moving quickly across the screen. On a 65-inch display, motion problems are also easier to notice simply because you're looking at a much larger image.\n\nThe processing helps keep fast action reasonably clean, although I wouldn't expect miracles from any television's motion interpolation. There are situations where aggressive smoothing can make footage look slightly artificial, so this is another area where the right settings matter. For normal films and shows, I generally prefer a more restrained approach. The TV also has TÜV Rheinland-certified Low Blue Light technology, which is a nice addition if you tend to watch late at night, although it isn't something you'll necessarily notice during a casual viewing session.\n\n## You probably won't need a soundbar immediately\n\nThe built-in speakers are one of the more convincing parts of the P7 Pro. The 65-inch model gets a 50W 2.1-channel setup with an integrated subwoofer, and that makes a noticeable difference compared with the thin, somewhat flat audio you often get from televisions this slim. There's enough bass to give action scenes some weight, while dialogue doesn't disappear completely into background music. Dolby Atmos adds some width to compatible content as well. But this isn't a replacement for a proper soundbar or surround setup. You still don't get the kind of separation or low-end impact that dedicated speakers can provide. The important thing is that the TV doesn't immediately make you feel like you need to spend another Rs 10,000–Rs 20,000 on audio just to make movies enjoyable. For everyday viewing, the built-in system is perfectly usable.\n\n## Google TV keeps things familiar\n\nThe software doesn't require much of a learning curve. The P7 Pro runs Google TV, so the interface and app selection will feel familiar if you've used a recent Android TV or Google TV device. I found this more useful in everyday use than some of the television's AI branding. Being able to search across services rather than opening each streaming app individually is convenient, and hands-free voice control is useful when you're too lazy to type something using the remote. The TV also comes with Google TV with Gemini, which brings Google's newer AI capabilities into the experience. Whether you'll use those features regularly is another question, for most people, the more important thing is that the basic interface remains straightforward. With 2GB of RAM and 32GB of storage, there is also enough room for installing the usual collection of streaming apps and other services.\n\n## Gaming is a nice bonus, rather than the main attraction\n\nThe P7 Pro is also more gaming-friendly than you'd expect from a TV primarily aimed at general entertainment. It supports Gaming 120Hz through DLG, VRR and ALLM, along with MEMC, and there's a Gaming Bar that gives you access to relevant settings while playing. For console gaming, VRR and ALLM are the features I'd pay more attention to because they have a more practical impact on responsiveness and smoothness. The 120Hz mode can also make compatible games feel noticeably smoother. I wouldn't buy this television solely because of the gaming specifications, though. Dedicated gaming monitors and higher-end gaming TVs still offer a more focused experience. Here, the appeal is that gaming is something the P7 Pro can handle well without compromising its role as an everyday living-room television.\n\n## The P7 Pro is more about balance than one killer feature\n\nAfter using the 65-inch P7 Pro, I don't think its strongest argument is any one feature. It's the fact that the TV covers most of the things you'd want from a large living-room screen without requiring immediate upgrades. The picture is good with quality content, the built-in 50W audio is genuinely useful, Google TV is familiar, and the gaming features give it some flexibility beyond streaming.\n\nAt Rs 67,990, there is plenty of competition in the 65-inch segment, so this isn't a television I'd recommend simply because it has a long specifications sheet. But if you're looking for a big-screen TV that you can set up and live with without immediately adding a soundbar, streaming device or gaming accessories, the P7 Pro makes a fairly sensible case for itself.\n\n**ALSO SEE: Noise ALT Buds Open Review: A Practical Open-Ear Package**", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/haier-p7-pro-tv-review-good-picture-surprisingly-strong-sound", "canonical_source": "https://in.mashable.com/tech/113021/haier-p7-pro-tv-review-good-picture-surprisingly-strong-sound", "published_at": "2026-08-19 12:54:13+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-08-19 13:14:36.030616+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-products"], "entities": ["Haier", "P7 Pro", "Google TV", "Dolby Vision", "HDR10+", "TÜV Rheinland", "Dolby Atmos"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/haier-p7-pro-tv-review-good-picture-surprisingly-strong-sound", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/haier-p7-pro-tv-review-good-picture-surprisingly-strong-sound.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/haier-p7-pro-tv-review-good-picture-surprisingly-strong-sound.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/haier-p7-pro-tv-review-good-picture-surprisingly-strong-sound.jsonld"}}
