The Hisense 32A4HNR is a no-frills 32-inch Roku TV that hits the right price for a bedroom or guest-room setup. At $99.99 it covers the basics well, though 720p resolution is a real limit if you sit close.

2,400 owner reviews, more than most models here
The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other LED, QLED and OLED TVs plus TV mounts, streaming media players, antennas, cables and satellite gear we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
The 32A4HNR uses a 31.5-inch LED panel at 720p HD and a 60 Hz refresh rate. At that screen size the resolution gap between 720p and 1080p is modest from a normal viewing distance, so it works fine for streaming, casual TV watching, and simple gaming on older consoles. The built-in Roku platform is one of the cleaner smart TV interfaces available, with fast channel switching and a broad app library.
At 8.2 pounds the TV is easy to hang or move around. The chassis measures 28.6 by 16.9 inches at 3.3 inches deep, making it genuinely compact. Connectivity includes HDMI, USB, and Wi-Fi. Specific HDMI port count is not listed in the spec sheet, so confirm that detail on the product page if port count matters for your setup.
For $99.99 this is one of the more straightforward budget buys in the 32-inch class. There is no HDR support listed, and the 720p ceiling will disappoint anyone who wants crisp text or detailed sports. But for a TV meant to run Netflix or cable in a smaller room, the 32A4HNR does exactly what it needs to do.
Pros
- Very low $99.99 price for a smart TV with built-in Roku
- Roku platform is intuitive with a wide app selection
- Compact and lightweight at 8.2 lb, easy to wall-mount or move
- 60 Hz refresh rate is appropriate for casual streaming and TV use
- Strong owner rating of 4.5 stars across 2,400 reviews
Cons
- 720p resolution is noticeably soft on anything above a small viewing distance
- No HDR support listed
- HDMI port count not confirmed in available specs
Performance notes
Panel is 31.5 inches diagonal, 720p HD, 60 Hz LED. No HDR is listed. Connectivity covers HDMI, USB, and Wi-Fi. Weight is 8.2 lb. Dimensions are 28.6 by 16.9 by 3.3 inches. At 720p on a sub-32-inch screen, pixel density is enough for viewing from 6 feet or more, but 1080p content will be downscaled.
What buyers say
With 2,400 reviews and a 4.5-star rating, this is one of the better-reviewed TVs at this price point. That volume of feedback at this rating level suggests consistent satisfaction in the use cases it is designed for, primarily secondary-room streaming.

Frequently asked questions
Is 720p good enough for a 32-inch TV?
At 32 inches and a typical viewing distance of 6 to 8 feet, 720p is adequate for streaming and standard TV content. The difference between 720p and 1080p is hard to see at that distance on a screen this size. If you sit very close, 1080p will look sharper.
Does the Hisense 32A4HNR have built-in streaming apps?
Yes. The TV runs the Roku platform, which gives you access to Netflix, Hulu, Disney Plus, Amazon Prime Video, and thousands of other channels without needing an external streaming stick. Roku also supports voice search and a clean, easy-to-navigate interface.
Can I use this TV without Wi-Fi?
Yes. While the Roku smart features require Wi-Fi, you can still connect a cable box, antenna, or game console via HDMI and use the TV as a regular display. The USB port may support media playback from a flash drive as well.
