Great TV with Flaws
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So we were out shopping for a new TV. At the time we had a 52" Samsung Plasma TV from like the 1st Gen Smart TV World. Anyways, ran across this in an Open Box sale. Checked some reviews and didn't see anything too bad about it. Picked it up for $300 with taxes and I walked away with a QLED 4K Google TV. First impression, styling looks clean and not overdone. The adjustable feet are an awesome feature but I use a rotating stand mount. Picture quality is great from any angles, I've found nothing wrong with angle viewing. When you get 4k stream, its phenomenal. You can count hairs in a beard or see shimmering sparkles of sweat on a forehead. It may not be OLED but is it really that important to have other than gloating to people. Now the flaws, speakers themselves sound like POOP. Luckily I run everything through a 7.2 surround sound system and have no need for built-in speakers. The other let down is only 1 arcE HDMI point. Other than those 2 things, I've found nothing else (so far) to complain about. This is after 2 months of ownership.

Great for the price!
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Picked this up as an always on tv, used to watch sports all day, and use as a digital fishtank. It gets pretty bright snd the sound is average. My only gripe is the interface is a bit slow. For $200, can't complain.

Great for the price.
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing for the price. This is a QLED VA panel, which means you will get amazing brightness with great contrast. It has Dolby Vision which supports two modes, Dolby vision bright and Dolby vision Dark. I recommend Dolby vision bright which takes movies to a while other level of clarity and brightness. The sound is standard for a flat screen TV, you will be better off with a Soundbar that is connected through the TV's ARC hdmi port. I only have two issues with this TV. One is that the Google UI can lag and feel a bit unresponsive or not fluid. The second is switching inputs to a game console. For some reason when you switch it the first time it automatically switches back to your last input or app. So you gots to switch the input again back to the console. So each time you wanna game, you have to switch inputs twice. For gaming it'll toggle Game Mode, which is only good for first person shooters or fighting games as this reduces input lag at the cost of a reduced image quality, meaning lesser brightness and color vibrancy. I recommend vivid then tweaking the picture settings to your liking to preserve some color and contrast.

1st time Google TV Owner
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great picture on TV but is slow on slow switching from cable to streaming. Sound could be better. Also didn't recognize my password for Google nest and I'm still working on casting to TV using Chromecast. Didn't have these issues with my Roku. But only had 3 weeks. I like Google so hopefully when I learn everything I'll be more impressed.
