Fantastic
A fantastic tv I’ve attached it to a Sonos sound bar which gives me an almost cinema experience ( no pop corn ) the screen is crystal clear and the colours are amazing. It is easy enough to adjust and fine tune to each persons specific tastes depending on what you are doing either movies, gaming etc or just go with the automatic settings. It made my gaming experience so much more so well worth the money. This tv is amazingly flat so for its screen size it is not too heavy. My only criticism if I had to find one is that with it being attached to a sound bar I start out with no volume so have to turn it up every single time ( unless it’s just me missing something)

Excellent value for money
Great picture for movies but I find that although the picture is crisp for gaming it's a little dark but It might be that I need to take the time to understand how to adjust the picture to suit excellent value for money

Rubbish
I bought this less than 2 weeks ago and the picture is amazing don’t get me wrong especially from going from a normal uhd tv. However, from the outset there was issues with the sound, the sound kept cutting off, there was a delay, would not connect with my Sonos soundbar. We took it back to Argos to get a refund due to these faults however, the customer service at the Spalding store is disappointing. The manager didn’t want to deal with it and instead sent me on a wild goose chase for a reference number that I later learned was never needed. If you state one thing in your returns policy then you should stick to it, even the manufacturer and Argos online stated that no reference number was needed. I took it back a second time after the first refusal and she’s tried refusing again until I told her that she is more than welcome to ring the manufacturer for the reference number. In the end she refunded it with a sour attitude.

No real progress made.
Bought this tv to replace LG nanocell tv-I like the that it connects to my LG soundbar/pvr easily with more than enough types of connector hdmi etc I like the the fact that the layout/controls/settings are nearly identical to the nanocell model and it fitted my existing wall mount-setup was very easy and even with no real manual not that hard.The picture quality is good but if I am truthful not the big difference I was expecting though it is much easier to watch from different angles unlike the nanocell which lost picture quality once you moved from the "straight on "position the sound is also good on tv speakers though I use a soundbar for music programmes. What is frustrating is that just like the nanocell the startup is slow and often fails to connect with soundbar etc and the epg is completely non existent unless you fire up the tv 2-3 times in quick succession also the tv is often requesting channel retune which in fairness maybe freeview and not the tvs fault and finally the magic remote can be very laggy and not very responsive ( I thought with evolution of the product this may improve), buttons I think would be better than a cursor on screen. As an upgrade for what i had it has been a bit of a disappointment but from past experience with LG tvs it should last and hopefully with software updates some of the frustrations may go away regarding value for money I think as an entry level Oled tv it is ok if bought on offer - but I am glad I bought at a offer price otherwise my disappointment would be greater.

yes is does, it works with consoles great. As for pc it has amd freesync. For Nvidia graphics cards it's G-Sync Compatible which isn't as good as native G-Sync which requires added hardware inside the tv and so is more expensive but still work great. You just have to do some setting up in the Nvidea settings.
