Picture Quality
After screen size and resolution, the next most important specification of a display is its Color Reproduction (defined by its color gamut specification).
Speaking of which, this TV comes with 100% DCI P3 color gamut coverage. This is equivalent to 136.36% sRGB. The color accuracy on this TV will be Lifelike!
What Color Gamut means ?
Color gamut specification of a TV is a measure of the range of colors that the display can display.
Meaning, it determines the ability of a display to produce accurate colors. A panel with low color gamut coverage will miss out on some colors (such as deep red), so the image produced will look "washed out" in colors.
Different manufacturers use different units to define color gamut. Such as — sRGB (standard RGB), NTSC, DCI P3 Adobe RGB and rec.2020.
In case of this TV, its color gamut is specified using DCI P3.
But don't worry, below is a chart that will help you choosing a TV with good color accuracy.
After color gamut, next in the list of important specifications that will impact your experience is Static Contrast.
Understanding the static contrast ratio of a TV
The static contrast ratio of a TV corresponds to its Black levels. A TV with low static contrast ratio (less than 1000:1) will not produce deep blacks. Apart from this, such TVs may suffer from backlight bleeds such as this:
The image is an example of another display, it is not this oneObviously this will affect your viewing experience considerably, especially in a dark room.
Also, static contrast ratio and resolution go hand in hand when it comes to details. To put it into perspective, a TV with low contrast ratio will show both dark gray and black as black, so lesser detail overall.
This TV is rated with a static contrast ratio of 8000:1., well enough to produce deep blacks. For the record, it also comes with local dimming technology which is a plus.
HDR is also supported on this TV in form of HDR10, HDR10+, HDR10+ Adaptive, HDR10+ Gaming, HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma) and Quantum HDR 24X.
Coming to brightness, it is capable of producing a maximum luminance of 250 nits. The panel of this TV is powered by Mini LED backlight.
Gaming Performance
If you are planning to use your TV solely for content consumption, you can ignore these specs. But if you are also going to use the TV for playing games or use it as a PC monitor, make sure to take a TV that features the lowest input lag and response time.
The input lag on this TV is 6 ms and its minimum response time is N/A. So its a go-to TV if you are interested in gaming.
Understanding Input lag and response time
This lag is the latency at which inputs changes the content of the screen. For casual Non-FPS games, input lag doesn't matter much.
Although for better experience, look for a TV that features an input lag and response time of less than 20ms.
Ergonomics and Dimensions
Now, coming to ergonomics — VESA mount is supported on this TV with an interface size of 400 x 400 mm. There is no Swivel, Tilt or Pivot feature support on this TV.
Vertically, the TV measures 75 inches and horizontally 65.75 inches.
