Can anyone confirm if the range of Hisense U7 TVs you can buy right now are Freely enabled? They seem to imply that they are but I haven't seen a spec that specifically lists it. Also seen a lot of references to 'Freely will be available on new TVs coming out this year' so that doesn't clarify if any existing ones cover it.

According to the Freely website:-

"so everyone with a 2024 4K Hisense TV can enjoy a totally new way to do free TV."

Note that it probably means a 2024 model so buying last years model cheap may not have the App. Of course a throwaway line may not mean all 2024 models will have it either and even the ones that do may not be able to run any subsequent new versions of the App. That unfortunately is just the nature of an evolving tech.
