Amazingly slim oled tv

Totally amazed at how slim the tv is especially being installed on the wall flat, it has freed up a lot of space in my living room, thankfully I can now get rid of my tv stand console as I ran the cables through the wall into the back spare room making the install look so much cleaner almost like the marketed images. Do note that legs are not part of this model, this didn’t affect me as my intention was to mount it on the wall.
Fantastic wall art mode, the colours are truly life like, the brightness when in a well lit room can be noticed but to the ordinary eye this won’t really be as noticeable.
The Dolby atmos in the built in sound is fairly good talking in to account the size of the screen and the innovation, though I would recommend having an additional sound output like a sound bar/ system. The user interface on the tv is very easy to use and navigate the handy remote even provides shortcuts to the most common apps that I used on my previous tv which was a little longer to start up as a lot of navigation menus had to be clicked.
Pros:
-Very slim (great for smaller rooms provides a lot more space, especially if you get rid of the tv console)
- great refresh rate for all rounder watching, especially gaming. Sports and movies are also clear but of course the clarity of the screen does depend on the source resolution and quality.
- voice assistant works a treat
- cable recess provides 23mm space to place cabling great for on wall mounting
Cons:
- pretty pricey compared to others on the market (but you are paying for the slim feature and high end tech spec)
- power cable is fixed so pre placement is vital in planning the install
- Energy rating is pretty low, but saying that majority of TVs fall under lower energy banding
- slight reflection on screen from external lighting mainly due to the glossy screen finish ( but still not a major drawback)
Overall a great innovation and tech combined in to such a small body that it truely does blow you away. Only had it up for a week/two and received many compliments from friends and family when the have popped over. I love mostly the simplicity of the design and how amazingly slim it is.
