Enjoy a compelling picture quality with colour-boosting HDR on the Hisense 55M5500. Backed by four-times the resolution of Full HD, this 10-bit has the ability to play programmes and movies in a beautiful High Dynamic Range. Furthermore, with the brand’s state-of-the-art Smart platform, you’ll be entertained with apps such as Netflix, Youtube and Wuaki.tv. And if you have an Android smart device, you can beam content directly onto the big-screen using AnyView Cast.
Super-Sharp 4K
To respond to screens getting bigger, brands have packed their screens with more pixels. This 50-inch screen has four times the number of pixels than 1080p HD TVs, delivering stunning realism, natural motion and incredible detail.
Experience this high-spec picture across a range of broadcasts, movies, sports and more thanks to 4K upscaling. As it converts lower resolution content to near-4K quality, anything you watch on the big screen will be truly extraordinary. This set’s smooth 1000 Hz refresh rate makes it perfect for watching sport, too.
HDR support
With its 10-bit panel, the 55M5500 can show over a billion individual colours to deepen your view and shows shades you’ve never seen in home entertainment before. The source content needs to be HDR for you to fully appreciate the picture, but here lies an element of future-proofing a new era of television.
Quad-Core smart platform
This set’s Hisense Smart platform is ran by a rapid quad-core processor, so you’ll browse seamlessly. Do anything from stream shows on Netflix and Amazon, keep up with the weather on Accuweather or play clips on YouTube. Other apps included Wuaki.tv, Plex, Facebook and Twitter.*
AnyView Cast
With AnyView Cast, you can mirror content on your Android smart device onto the TV. You could show holiday snaps to guests, play games on the big screen or continue watching movies from a commute – the possibilities are endless. Please note that this feature doesn’t work on iOS devices.

OP is incorrect, it's NOT a 10bit panel. It can process 10bit but it's not going to show you all those colours. Don't be fooled.

I read this is an 8bit panel that can process a 10bit signal so not a true 10bit panel ?
Seems far too cheap to be a true 10 bit screen? I guess it's not one of the big brands, but this still seems really too cheap for a 10bit HDR screen.

Very tempted by this but I feel the same way. Trying to find reviews/additional information about this model but haven't been able to find much.

Would like to know if this is true? Can anyone confirm this?

I remember reading about it when I was looking for a TV but cannot find any hard evidence. the rather low brightness rating and no mention on Richer Sounds about a 10 bit panel seems to say it's not....

I was told today it was a 8 bit panel via one online store.
