A:AnswerHi Heath! Because HDMI 2.1 is a complicated spec, we hope that focusing on TV features will be more helpful to you when deciding on the best model for your usage scenario. The 70” TU6985 has 2 HDMI ports, both of which support Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) and Dynamic Metadata (HDR10+). If you are looking for a TV capable of 4K@120fps (FRL), please consider the Q70A Series, which supports “FRL on HDMI In 4”. ^Tim
A:AnswerHi Jess! The TU6985 does not include built in voice assistant support. This feature is available starting with the AU8000 allowing you to select Bixby, Google Assistant, or Amazon Alexa and control the TV with your voice. ^Tim
A:AnswerHi Jess! You can utilize AirPlay technology to mirror the content from your Airplay compatible devices to the TV. The TV does not feature Chromecast built in, however select applications will allow you to cast direct to the TV without the need for a Chromecast device. ^Tim
