DYNAMIC SOUND SETTING fixes every real issue I have read

Just got this tv, hooked it up to my roku premier+ and easily streamed a movie in 4k. AT FIRST the sound was God awful as some other people mentioned. I tried toying with the treb and bass, but nothing worked. Then I found the dynamic sound setting and it was perfect. No idea why it isn’t the default setting. Perfect tv for the price.

Why pay 4x as much!?

Best TV we’ve ever had, at the most economical rate ever - you have to get one!

Awesome 4k experience!!

I’ve played around with TV now for several weeks and it’s time to give my personal review. First question that gets asked about this TV is, is it good enough for 4k? The answer is yes it is. Even though I mainly brought this TV for 4k gaming but found quickly that this TV does rival all major competitors 4k tvs. After I spent a little time adjusting this TV around I found out really quick that right settings to make the picture look like it does when its sitting at a retail store looking pretty and drawing you in like a fly does to a bright light. These are the settings I found perfect for this tv: vivid picture, dynamic contrast on, color set to warm and make sure noise reduction is off. Then I tested these settings while watching Netflix 4k. Trust me when I tell that the picture quality blew my mind while watching crouching tiger hidden Dragon 2 and sense 8 on Netflix 4k. I know Alot people are saying they can’t tell the difference between 4k and 1080p but trust you can tell the difference. What you do is watch something in 4k and then downscale the resolution to 1080p and trust you’ll see the difference. This is the same thing that everyone did with HD over SD when HD first came out. The picture quality is totally bonkers. I’ve invited numerous friends over and they all were blown away from how great the picture quality is. Some of these friends have LG and Samsung 4k tvs that spent $2000 plus on. Did I mention that this TV doesn’t have any motion blurring either and which I found turning on the memc 120hz feature pointless. This TV is extremely awesome if you’re like me and play 4k games on PC then this TV is perfect. This TV actually performes like a monitor rather than a TV. This TV only has 8ms input lag which is beyond outstanding for a TV. Graphics are unreal in 4k on this TV. Call of duty looks like a cgi movie. Those who use keyboard and mouse I found it that this TV has very little lag so that using keyboard and mouse is awesome as well. The only gripes that I have with this TV is that it only has 1 4k 60hz port which sucks cause I use my PC and nvidia shield box to stream Netflix 4k. Amazon does sell a hdmi 2.0 splitter box for $60 but for now just switching out the cables is fine for me. The other issue I have and maybe it’s my set but this TV from time to time will show unsupported mode whenever it doesn’t pick up on the 4k signal right and I have to switch input ports back and forth to fix it. I’m going to contact the manufacturer about this. Other than those issues this TV has blown my mind on the picture quality and PC gaming. If you’re sitting wondering if you should get this TV after seeing the cheap price tag then I say go for it.

Beautiful picture, Great size, Wonderful Price

This works well in my living room and is almost too big! I dont have any issue with the sound but we keep the volume pretty low. Picture quality is great and i would def recommend this to anyone looking for a reasonably priced product.

The TV works great. Like most of the people that have reviewed …

The TV works great. Like most of the people that have reviewed this, the sound is not great. That is the only thing that keeps it from 5 stars for me.

HTPC use

This is being used as a “monitor” on a home theater PC. The reds are weird, but workable. The brightness is good, there’s no troublesome leaks, and the screen isn’t warping. The bezel is a fingerprint magnet, but very easy to clean.

so far so good. Hard to beat the picture for the money

About a month in, so far so good.Hard to beat the picture for the money, but I’ll echo the feedback on the sound quality, a sound bar is pretty much a requirement.

A Beautiful TV

I absolutely love this Television.This was a replacement for a smart tv from a different company and i could have gotten another smart tv but once i laid my eyes on this, there was no going back.The 4k resolution is phenomenal. I do not even have to turn the volume up past 7 like i did with the previous tv. It was very easy to put the base together once i took it out of its box.Setting up was a piece of cake

Perfect for someone in low price for high picture quality

Good for 1080 and very crystal clear. The sound is horrible but knew that upon purchase. For price it is perfect. Bought an abox with it and its perfect!!!

Get what you pay for, no more.

Picture is OK, the sound is horrible. I would have pref no speakers at all. There are consequences for buying a cheap TV, expect them and you will be happy with this unit.
