Excellent!

This is a great TV. Let me first say that I am a Roku user so I was familiar with Roku before buying this tv and it is one of the reasons I decided to buy it. As a cord cutter, there is nothing better than Roku. I did a lot of research and went back and forth on whether to buy this TV. I have always been a samsung guy and for me to buy an insignia tv was huge step out of my comfort zone. I can say that so far I am loving the decision to buy this tv. I got it for 499 on the Memorial Day sales so I could not have asked for better timing on the price.
Picture quality is amazing on netflix, hulu, and amazon prime. I watch a lot of sports so I was concerned about motion blur but I have not noticed any issues. The upscaler does an amazing job on MLB games. I have never seen baseball games look at sharp and vivid as on this tv. The one issue I have noticed is with my over the air channels. At times some of them look grainy or blurry, its hard to describe. However, at other times channels such as NBC in the evening will look absolutely perfect. It could be because our local Fox channel broadcasts in 720 and NBC in 1080 but I am not sure.
The Roku interface does not disappoint. Fast and easy to navigate the menu. Yes, you do have to point the remote at the TV but get over yourself, it will be okay.
Overall, I think this tv is a great value. It may not have the best 4k picture on the market but for the price it is excellent and you can't go wrong buying this tv.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Your comment is false. You can use the 4K spotlight channel to access all of the content available in 4K.

Terrible 4K TV!
By NDIrishfan71
Purchased this set after seeing good reviews on here and hearing from friends. 1st thing I noticed was a bad odor coming from the set which I had never smelled before on any previous set I have purchased. Made me literally nauseated!
Now let me get to the details. I was told the set had a componant input which I needed for a device that uses it. Got it home and all this set has is an analog input, 1 ARC/HDMI and 3 HDMI ports. The remote control is just a regular Roku remote control which is terrible. Had to stand up and move within 5 ft. to get it to work.
Grabbed my TV calibration set and proceeded to calibrate this set to the best possible picture only to find it has only one setting! All it has is Bright,brighter, and brightest setting! There is no contrast, backlight, Color,Hue/Tint,Gamma settings! Nothing! Went into Advanced settings and all it had were 3 settings one being factory reset. I have never seen a set without basic setting controls to be adjusted to a users preference like this.
The upscaler is Garbage! I have seen 1080p sets produce better pictur quality than this set did with upscaling. Set has a low grade 4k picture while streaming 4k content bare minimum. Looks better than 1080P but very low options for 4k sources. I hoped to see a difference with upscaling of Blu-Ray and DVD. It was NO better than 1080P. I took it back later today and went and got a Sony 1080P set.
The Sony was $50 cheaper and a 48", but blew this above set away picture quality wise. Do yourself a favor and pass on this one. If you do not have the money to pay $200 more for a name brand buy a name brand 1080P set instead.

First of all, my set does not have a bad odor so I don't know what that is all about. I have had no issue with the remote. Yes, you do have to point it at the TV like its 1990 but it works fine for me from far away.
I think upscaler does great. Baseball games on mlb.tv look better than I have ever seen them on my Samsung 1080 tv.

Are you able to download apps on this TV? I'm particularly interested in the sling tv app.

Yes the Roku interface lets you add the Sling channel. My remote even has a sling button as one of the short cut buttons.
