    I bought this as an upgrade to a Vizio 50 inch 60hz 4k. If you have at least a RTX 3080 then you need a 4k 120hz tv

    The display is excellent, the sound is great. It’s a Sony. The one thing I hate about the tv os the fact that everything os integrated with google which I am not a fan of. It’s just want TMI to watch television.

    Great black levels for a non-OLED TV. Very poor viewing angle. Good for viewing from the front. Makes a good bedroom TV not for a larger wider room.
