Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great picture quality The TV has great picture quality and upscales really well. Sound quality is equally good. Works great with my PS5 and makes the gaming experience much better. For the price it’s and excellent all rounder. Only thing I would say is the bar across the front on the stand is plastic and feels a bit cheap. You only really notice when fitting the stand together though.
