Hisense Laser TV L9 Review: Big Screen Aesthetics & TriChroma Laser Tested

For homeowners dreaming of a 100-inch or 120-inch display in their main living room, traditional LED televisions are heavy, wall-mounting nightmares that dominate the decor as massive black rectangles when off. The Hisense Laser TV L9 Series solves this by using an Ultra Short Throw (UST) laser console paired with a lightweight, ambient-light-rejecting screen.

In this detailed hands-on review, we evaluate the Hisense Laser TV, testing its 3,000 lumens TriChroma triple laser engine, 107% BT.2020 color space, ALR screen performance in bright rooms, and smart home integration with Google TV, Alexa, and Apple AirPlay 2.

What Is the Hisense Laser TV L9 Series?

The Hisense Laser TV is an all-in-one ultra-short throw laser projection ecosystem. Consisting of a compact floor console and a thin, wall-mounted Ambient Light Rejecting (ALR) screen, the system projects a massive 100-inch or 120-inch 4K UHD picture from just inches away from your media furniture.

Powered by Hisense's TriChroma triple-laser light engine (using separate red, green, and blue lasers), the Hisense Laser TV L9 reproduces over 107% of the ultra-wide BT.2020 color gamut—a color range that traditional LED and OLED TVs cannot match.

Visual Performance & TriChroma Color Testing

In laboratory testing, the Hisense Laser TV delivered extraordinary color fidelity. The TriChroma triple-laser optical engine reproduces vivid reds and lush greens that appear striking on the included ALR screen. Peak brightness of 3,000 lumens ensures daylight viewing in rooms with open windows and ambient light.

Because laser light reflects off the ALR screen surface rather than beaming directly into the viewer's eyes (like a traditional LED TV), eye strain is significantly reduced during extended movie marathons or gaming sessions.

Smart Home Ecosystem & Aesthetic Integration

From an interior design standpoint, the Hisense Laser TV excels. When turned off, the thin ALR screen resembles a neutral gray acoustic wall panel rather than a giant black void. Cable management is effortless: all power cords, streaming boxes, and gaming consoles connect directly inside the media cabinet below the console, keeping wires hidden.

• Cable Management: Excellent — All connections housed neatly inside the media cabinet.
• Visual Impact When Off: High — Lightweight ALR screen mounts flush against the wall like art.
• Smart Home Integration: Built-in Google TV, Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, Apple AirPlay 2 & HomeKit.
• Eye Comfort: Reflected light technology reduces eye fatigue during extended viewing.

Installation & Calibration Guide

Setting up the Hisense Laser TV is a straightforward multi-step process:

1. Screen Mounting: Assemble the lightweight aluminum ALR screen frame and stretch the optical fabric for a wrinkle-free surface. Mount flush to wall studs.
2. Console Alignment: Position the UST laser console centered directly beneath the screen. Ensure your media cabinet is sturdy and level.
3. Cable Routing: Connect your power, eARC HDMI, and source cables through the back of the media console into the rear of the unit.
4. Auto-Calibration: Use the Hisense smartphone app to run geometric auto-calibration and align picture borders perfectly to the frame.
