I just bought a HiSense 4K "smart" TV. Regardless of whether the TV is connected to the internet over WiFi or ethernet cable, the built-in apps tend not to get a full 4K signal. It's odd because I have a "Google Chromecast with Google TV" plugged into my AVR two feet from the TV, getting internet over WiFi, and it has no trouble playing 2160p from its apps. A family member who bought the same TV has the same situation.

HiSense never responded to my email about this.
