Just wanted to let everyone know who may be on the fence, this is a great TV. Now granted, I have only had it a few days, but none of the issues everyone else has mentioned (slow load times, weird filters turned on), have been present for me. Very impressed with the upscaling of lower res HD content (Pluto TV, Roku Live etc.). It makes 720 p content look great. Since most PS3 games are 720p as well, it is the best my old system has ever looked (still play BF3 what can I say). Only minor gripe is there are only so many pre-made choices of what to call your inputs (generic “game console” and so on). Would have loved to type it in like my old Vizio, but I will sacrifice that for the great quality overall. But anyway, buy this tv, you will not be disappointed. Oh and lastly, the feet can be mounted in two different spots, which is great for someone upgrading from a 55 inch. The narrower position allows you to use a much smaller stand and not need to purchase another wider one. Update: Almost a year in and still working great. No issues like many reported (most of those reviews were from 2023 so I am guessing any qc issue was taken care of and the updated software was a fix). I do have to say that I have a Roku express 4K hooked up to the tv. I have found it loads faster and I kind of prefer the User interface for Roku a bit better. If anyone is hesitating buying this tv because of the bad reviews for Fire TV OS, the Roku box is only like $29. Cheap “fix” but it is really a matter of preference. Also, finally bought a PS5. When I hooked it up to the TV it automatically went into “game mode”. I have not noticed any issues with slow refresh or any lagging to speak of(something that was a concern for some when mentioning the U6 models). So I don’t know. Maybe I am extremely lucky to have gotten a “good one” from the factory or the issue lies with the reviewer and not the product. Just sayin’ Read more
I was one of the lucky few to pick up one of these on Prime Day for just $160 which was an amazing price for such a decent TV. Even at it's current price of $337 I wouldn't hesitate to purchase another one if we had the need for one in the near future. This replaced one of the old Seiki 50" 4K TV's that came out a decade ago and were by far the least expensive 4K TV's you could get at the time. The main TV in my house is a 2019 75" Vizio P-Series. Probably the most telling thing I could say about this TV is that I used to avoid watching any movies or anything "pretty" that the visuals were right up there with the story because the old Seiki was not real great of picture quality. I no longer worry about that however as the picture from this TV is very good for it's price. Pros: - Consistent picture across inputs. I had change the picture settings switching from game to show on the Seiki which was horribly annoying. - Good lighting with no major hotspot issues. Not unexpected since it has full array local dimming. - Contrary to some reviews stating otherwise I don't notice any significant motion blur. Perhaps the Google version has this issue? - It plays nice with standard and non-standard external devices: - Works great with the Xbox One - Surprisingly also works great with my Asus PN41 mini PC (no over/underscan issues) - Sound is as expected for a thin LED TV that doesn't have room or depth for great speakers Cons(?): - Have had some issues with the wifi connectivity - Likely a combination of wall mounting it on a wall which is brick on the exterior (the reflection of the wifi signals back towards the TV off the wall can really kill your signal) - Unfortunately placement of the main router and sole satellite of my mesh Wifi system that doesn't allow any better placement than with a large brick fireplace and multiple walls directly between the router and the TV - Not really a con as it's a pretty standard size and it's super cheap to get a longer one, but if you're wall mounting yours and wanting neat cable management you'll likely want to go ahead and order a longer power cable because the one this comes with is only ~6-8 feet long Read more
