What reviewers say

Both reviews praise bright, detailed HDR images, improved motion and extensive gaming support. What Hi-Fi? finds the sound thin and sibilant and the raised stand wobbly. Trusted Reviews welcomes stronger dialogue and bass but finds a recurring green tint in HDR10 content. Both recommend a separate sound system.
