On the display side, the panel covers a wide color range with 1.07 billion colors at 10-bit depth, a typical brightness of 450 nits, and an 8 ms response time, alongside a 178-degree viewing angle both horizontally and vertically.

Connectivity includes four HDMI 2.1 ports, four USB ports, one RJ45 port, Bluetooth 5.0, Wi-Fi 5, and a 3.5 mm audio jack, complemented by DVB-T/T2/C/S/S2 tuner support. Audio features cover Dolby Atmos, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS-HD High Resolution, stereo speakers, a subwoofer, and both HDMI ARC and eARC outputs. The set measures 975 x 589 x 66 mm, weighs 15,100 g, supports VESA mounting, and carries an EU energy label of G with a French Repairability Index of 6.5.

Pros
  • Supports all four major HDR formats — HDR10, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and HLG — covering a wide range of HDR content sources
  • Four HDMI 2.1 ports provide ample connections for multiple high-bandwidth devices simultaneously
  • Comprehensive broadcast tuner support across DVB-T, DVB-T2, DVB-C, DVB-S, and DVB-S2 covers both terrestrial and satellite reception without an external tuner
  • Built-in subwoofer alongside stereo speakers and Dolby Atmos support delivers a more complete audio experience without requiring an external soundbar
  • Standby power consumption of just 0.3W keeps idle energy draw very low
  • Anti-reflection coating and 178-degree viewing angles in both directions make the screen usable across a wide range of room layouts and lighting conditions
Cons
  • 60Hz refresh rate and no adaptive synchronization support limit the display's suitability for fast-motion content and gaming use cases
  • EU energy label of G indicates relatively high power consumption for the screen size during normal operation
  • Wi-Fi is limited to Wi-Fi 5 with no Wi-Fi 6 support, which may be a bottleneck in faster home network environments
  • No external memory slot restricts local storage expansion options
  • The remote control is not rechargeable, requiring regular battery replacement
  • Siri and Apple HomeKit are not supported, limiting integration for users within the Apple ecosystem
Who is this for?

This TV is a solid fit for living room setups where a variety of content sources are in use, thanks to its support for HDR10, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and HLG alongside four HDMI 2.1 ports that accommodate multiple devices without compromising signal quality. Users who rely on over-the-air or satellite broadcasts will appreciate the built-in DVB-T/T2/C/S/S2 tuner, eliminating the need for an external receiver. The inclusion of Dolby Atmos, a subwoofer, and stereo speakers also makes it a reasonable choice for viewers who want an integrated audio experience without a dedicated sound system, while smart features like AirPlay, Alexa support, voice commands, and USB recording suit users looking for a versatile, self-contained entertainment hub.

Who is this NOT for?

Users who prioritize smooth motion in fast-paced content will find the 60Hz refresh rate and absence of adaptive synchronization a notable limitation, making this set poorly suited for console or PC gaming where higher frame rates and variable refresh rate support matter. The EU energy label of G signals above-average power draw during operation, which is a drawback for those with energy efficiency as a priority. Additionally, households deeply integrated into the Apple ecosystem will be hindered by the lack of Siri and Apple HomeKit support, and users who need expandable local storage will find the absence of an external memory slot restrictive for larger recording needs.
