Pros

Supports four HDMI 2.1 ports, allowing multiple high-bandwidth devices to be connected simultaneously
144Hz refresh rate combined with AMD FreeSync Premium makes for smooth, tear-free motion in fast content
HDR10, HDR10+, and HLG coverage provides broad compatibility with high dynamic range content
Dolby Atmos support alongside four speakers totaling 40W of output delivers a more immersive audio experience without an external system
Voice command support works with both Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa, offering flexible hands-free control
Wide 178-degree viewing angles both horizontally and vertically ensure consistent image quality from most seating positions

Cons

Dolby Vision is not supported, limiting compatibility with a portion of HDR-mastered streaming content
No external memory slot restricts local storage options beyond USB recording
The remote control is not rechargeable, requiring regular battery replacement
Wi-Fi is limited to Wi-Fi 5, with no support for the faster Wi-Fi 6 standard
No built-in subwoofer, which may limit low-frequency audio depth at higher volumes
EU energy label of F indicates relatively high power consumption during normal use

Who is this for?

This TV is well-suited to users who want a large-screen home cinema setup with broad HDR compatibility, as it supports HDR10, HDR10+, and HLG across an 85″ QLED Mini-LED panel capable of rendering over a billion colors. The 144Hz refresh rate paired with AMD FreeSync Premium also makes it a strong fit for console and PC gamers who benefit from smooth, adaptive motion handling via the four HDMI 2.1 ports. Additionally, households that rely on smart home ecosystems built around Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa will find the integrated voice control and smartphone remote support a natural fit for their existing setup.

Who is this NOT for?

Users who prioritize Dolby Vision compatibility for their streaming or disc-based content will find this TV limiting, as that HDR format is not supported. Those looking to keep a tidy, minimal living space may also find the 96mm depth and overall footprint of an 85″ panel impractical in smaller rooms. Apple ecosystem users expecting seamless integration through Siri or Apple HomeKit will need to look elsewhere, as neither is supported, and anyone wanting cable-free local storage beyond USB will be restricted by the absence of an external memory slot.
