What reviewers say

The 55-inch What Hi-Fi? and 65-inch Tom’s Guide reviews praise natural colour, fine detail, motion handling and unusually capable sound. Both find two HDMI 2.1 inputs limiting and pricing high. What Hi-Fi? sees a refined rather than dramatic OLED advance; Tom’s Guide is more enthusiastic overall, but flags slower gaming response than rivals.
