What reviewers say

Reviews of the US 65-inch model praise bright HDR, broad viewing angles and responsive gaming, while noting missing Dolby Vision and some blooming. TechRadar finds the stand sturdy and sound spacious but bass-light; Tom’s Guide finds the stand less stable. Both consider the picture strong, though cheaper Mini-LED rivals weaken its value.
