When they have your money they do not care if ther
||Posted .Owned for 2 months when reviewed.TV was fine. Service from Geek Squad was terrible. I do not know if anyone will listen or react to this posting but the Spot for the TV was marked with a template made of the TV dimensions. tV was installed way higher. It is like sitting on the front seat of a movie theater. I was told the team had more appts and to see if I could live with it. I said I knew I did not like it and asked why they did not stick with installing where the template was on the wall. Best Buy did not help in this situation. Geek Squad never answered an email or my going to the store. Last thing I will ever purchase from Best Buy

Q: QuestionDoes it have hdmi 2.1?
Asked by MFrecklez.
- A:Answer Hi MFrecklez, Thank you for the inquiry. Unfortunately, the KD50X80J does not features specified in the HDMI 2.1 standard. However, this TV supports eARC/ARC. If you are looking for a TV that supports HDMI 2.1 features like 4K/120, ALLM, and VRR(available via future update) we recommend checking out the X900H, A90J series, or X90J, A80J series. I hope this helps! Jay

Q: QuestionCan this fit on a 27 inch table?
Asked by British.
- A:Answer I’m sorry, it will not. The stand legs are 29 13/16. You might want to look into purchasing a universal stand with a middle base that will support a 50 inch flat. I purchased one from Amazon for another 50 inch tv in our home and it works beautifully. Good luck.
