Great features and picture quality

Set-up this TV last week in our bedroom. It was easy to unpack. I suggest the user wears gloves to avoid getting fingerprints on the screen when initially unwrapping the TV from the inner packaging. During set-up I had to create a free account on Roku which was easy. It asked me what apps I wanted to add to the TV. Screen prompts on the TV made initial set-up easy once I entered various passwords for my wi-fi and streaming services. Since I was using an antenna and not a cable box it took a few minutes for the TV to scan for channels. It picked up all the same channels I was watching on my previous TV. Once the TV was set-up and I was on the main menu screen, it took me a moment to select my favorite channels via antenna and Roku TV service. I noticed that the remote does not have numbered keys which I was used to from past TVs. But it was not a problem once I figured out how to access the Live TV menu. And the remote is smaller as a result. Easy to scroll through the channels and pick what I wanted to watch. The TV screen is very thin as well as the borders around the viewing portion of the screen. Like it as it provides more viewing area for the size of the TV. The picture is bright and clear on both live and streaming channels. Didn't notice any difference with the picture quality or viewability when the blinds and were open with lots of sunlight or closed. There was no to very little lag time when switching between streaming services, which I like. Only minor glitch I noticed was once when I turned the TV on, it showed the incorrect time. Once I hit the menu button the TV quickly corrected itself to the right time. Hasn't happened again. Overall, I would recommend this TV. The 50" is perfect for our bedroom.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the Roku built in but don't like that if the sound bar is selected you cannot get the TV speakers unless you go back and select them. There is a auto selection but it doesn't switch on its own. I m still trying to programs Cinemate controller to work all TV, sound bar and DVD player.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm pleased with the picture quality, but I'm not happy that the TV always powers up to the home screen. I haven't found a way to power up to the last channel I watched. My other brand TV's do this. Also, the remote is too basic. No numbers, I have to scroll through to change channels instead of entering the #. Not impressed.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It has great color and is crystal clear. Very easy to set up.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great for Gaming and Streaming

This is a great QLED TV for gaming. Playing on my PS5 was crystal clear and kept up with heavy frame rates. Netflix was good as well with a special Dolby mode for movies or shows that support it. Even did a casting comparison with my older Sony LED model, which was much pricey at the time, and quality was equivalent. Roku TV is not my favorite but it gets the job done.

I've been using this tv for about a month and so far it's been a positive experience. Picture quality is amazing, sound is good, and the roku interface is very easy to maneuver around. The tv itself is sleek and and I really like the borderless design. I think this tv is a great value compared to some other ones in it's class.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased this TV about 3 weeks ago. I am happy with my purchase. TV looks good. Clear picture. Good sound.
