this prolly wasnt a bad decision early on... why push something to a population who cant utilize it... but shit changes fast, google.
The weirder thing is Firefox on ARM being detected as a HiSense TV. I did a cursory search to see if HiSense ever used Firefox OS on the TV and it doesn't seem like it. Panasonic seemed to be the only manufacturer using it.
Could be that the developers for the HiSense TV just copy-pasted whatever UA into their browser codebase and called it a day.
