A:AnswerYes, get the google home mini and the google chromecast if you want the full google smart experience
pseudo 120 HZ & pseudo HDR ..... but great 4k picture for the price if you ask me

Picture: The TV is huge, and the Picture is bright and clear. I have seen my friends 50" LG 4K tv and this is much better than that. I would recommend turning off the motion smoothing (pseudo 120hz refresh rate) I felt the picture was much better at the usual 60hz. (I leave the motion smoothing ON for the Xbox, but for chromecast and other inputs I switch it off, you can find this in the picture settings (*) and goto advanced picture settings)
Sound: again considering my frame of reference which is my parents 50" sony 4K & my friend's 50" LG this is on par with the heavy weights.
Assembly: Super easy, just follow the steps
Remote: simple and easy nothing fancy. I recommend the Roku app, I use the Tv at night and just plug my headphones into the phone and the Roku app streams audio through the app instead of TV which is useful.

1. The first couple weeks the heated plastic smell which comes for all the new TV's is strong with this one. But it subsided within 2.5 weeks.
A:AnswerHi Carrie Roku is a smart service interface that gets you to Amazon video, Netflix, Hulu, and many more channels. The TV hooks to you internet though WiFi or Ethernet cable and you get access to many channels over the internet. Look up “Roku” in a general search or on Best Buy to learn more. Normally Roku is sold as a separate little box or stick that hooks to a TVs HDMI port.
A:AnswerThe sound bar is not needed but it can enhance the audio as TV speakers typically don't produce enough sound. The usage of HDMI cables will depend on what devices there is to connect to the TV. Xfinity cable can be connected using HDMI. Geeks can give you an idea but for very specific information, the device manufacturer would be an authoritative choice.
A:AnswerThe box says it is 300x200 for the VESA. It weigh 34.2 pounds and is 28.5" High and 49" long. the with from front to back is 3.2" add the base and it is just over 12in.
Hope this helps
A:Answer3--Number of HDMI HDCP 2.2 Inputs
High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection version 2.2 (HDCP 2.2) enabled HDMI inputs and outputs act as a check between 4K devices. They provide a secure connection between a source and a display, to protect data so it can’t be copied.
