What reviewers say

The 43-inch Tom’s Guide and 50-inch What Hi-Fi? reviews praise bright, colourful pictures and responsive gaming, but dislike Tizen and miss Dolby Vision. What Hi-Fi? finds occasional distracting dimming and thin, recessed sound. Tom’s Guide finds clear sound with weak bass and narrower viewing angles. These judgements concern the smaller versions.
