New hisense 4Serise-40 tv has atrocious input lag and game mode stutters like crazy

The new hisense 4Serise-40 tv I just bought has some of the worst input lag I have ever seen on a tv and when I put game mode on it stutters every 3-5 seconds. 

 

It is version 11.50.5 build 4846

I heard there was a 12.0 update but my tv says it's up to date.

 

Does anyone have a solution to this?

I bought it pretty much just to game with.

I have the same problem on my 65in Hisense, except it was working fine and in the last week when using the Roku app and Bluetooth headphones it stutters allot when on YouTube only, everything else works well.  I get no stuttering when the headphones aren't connected. Let me know if anyone figures this out please.

Hi this did not fix my issue.  Game mode is hard lagging and no game mode has serious input lag

Hi the link you provided took me to a page talking about having wireless audio devices connected. Nothing in my message ever mentioned that and I do not have any connected at all.  Just issues with a brand new TV not working due to input lag and game lag

Re: New hisense 4Serise-40 tv has atrocious input lag and game mode stutters like crazy

About a year has passed and this stupid bug hasn't been fixed!

Enabling game mode introduces a stutter/micro freeze every 10 or 11 seconds.

I did a test, and when audio is not coming from the connected device, the stutter is almost unnoticeable, about an 8th of a second or so, it is still there but is not as annoying.

Here's my tv info:

Model (back of tv): 40H4030F4

About info:

Hisense model: 4Series-40

Hardware ID: K201X

Serial number: X02700U7JFJ7

Software Version: 11.5.0 build 4846-G5

Device ID: S0VAY347JFJ7

Issue ID: J7-397-157
