it’s fine. I bought it as a 2nd TV for the playroom. It has bad viewing angles but if viewed straight on it has a decent picture for the price.

The TV has been working correctly so far. The HDR content is very nice. I wish they would add a sleep timer that you could set the tv to turn off at a certain time every day.

The only real problem with this TV is the on screen guide when you are using the Antenna TV input. It is a very bare bones guide that could use a LOT of improvement. I use a Roku device to watch one of the streaming services, so is no big problem for me. But if you use mainly the Antenna TV input, you best look into this first before you buy. The picture quality is excellent, and seems to be a great value for the money it costs.

Big Mistake, should have bought major brand

Unfortunately I believed the reviews. Purchased in July to replace a perfectly functional 19 year old Panasonic Plasma (sorry climate fans) connected to Brand New Roku Ultra and a Samsung Surround sound system and Harmony remote. Streaming TV only. Glitchy at first, would not always turn on together, random shut downs. Reprogrammed everything multiple times and firmware updates everywhere per customer support...Nope. Gradually started getting harder to restart, unplug everything 10 minutes and restart. Rebooting the TV system is incredibly slow 10+ min, it would come on, then about 10 min in Black screen with sound still working. About a month ago (now Sept and past return window) TV was off more than on, very difficult to find the right combination to get it actually to come on and stay on. Football and soccer season live is a joke.
No customer support online, chat rooms all seeing same problem. Beautiful screen, too bad it seldom is on long enough to watch.

Fantastic TV for the price, got it on sale and couldn't be happier. Really deep contrast and vibrant colors gets bright enough for all kinds of movies / shows.
Only issue I see is with the built in android tv implementation not being the best, it's cluttered and slow most of the times. Honestly just used to using my Nvidia shield on another TV

Quality Product for its Price Point

This TV is what it is. Solid price point, solid value. Image quality is good. The HDR and color gamut is surprisingly good even with the limited nits. The greens and blues can get a little washed out.
The Smart TV UI is pretty lame. Sluggish and the layout is confusing. Also, the settings and color scheme out of the box is terrible. Make sure to tune the picture settings to whatever you’re using (PC, Game, Movie). Also, VRR is not turned on, out-of-box so make sure to tick that off.
If you’re a gamer, one thing to note. The TV is designed to pair well with the PlayStation. It does not pair as well with the Xbox. I adjusted the color and graphical settings to my preference on my XSX and after a couple days, the screen started to flicker uncontrollably. Only fix was to turn off VRR. I ended up resetting the TV and not messing with the color settings when tuned to XBox. This issue never occurred for PS5.
Overall, pleased with this purchase. Recommend for low-mid level tv purchasers.

I have been spoiled by the newest OLED tv such as the LG CX and C1 and this tv is BY NO MEANS competition for those behemoths but YOU’D BE SURPRISED how great this low budget screen looks! For both gaming and movies! Very decent blacks and good brightness! Only caveat being the extremely SUB PAR VIEWING ANGLES! So if you cant sit smack dab in front of this screen prepare for the “washed out” look on the screen. Otherwise STEAL OF A DEAL!
