Purchased this TV for my parents' bedroom and it's worked flawlessly ever since. Menu systems are a breeze as are the picture customization controls. In addition, it has stronger wifi link-up than the attached Roku Soundbar my parents use with it. It's my second of these units as I own the 65" in my living room. Definitely great to have HDR10+ and Dolby Vision as we/they watch combinations of services that require each (i.e. Netflix and Amazon Prime Video).

My uncle gave me this TV as a gift. I gave 4 stars because the only thing I do not like about this TV unit is that it turns on by itself in the middle of the night. The TV has done that a few times over the past year.

I love TV, but I wish I can just screen share or (smart view) like before. Now it lame that I am force to use internet (WIFI) to smart view, mirroring, or Chromecast. Like other TV allows this awesome feature. But after some update ago it block this and forces us(me) to use and have Wi-Fi. If anything can we(me) have this back. Not everyone can get or have Wi-Fi.
