See what you can do with Alexa on your Smart TV
My old TV bit the dust, and I thought I had been preparing for this eventuality by buying one of the big box stores gift cards and accumulating them. When I was finally forced into buying a new TV, I started learning more about higher Def functions and what they all meant.
The picture quality on this set is incredible. It is amazing to revisit some computer generated scenes from yesteryear (Star Trek:TNG) and the animation of alien cities is just that: animation. The blow up of cities and people walking appear as hollow stick figures and almost disappointing. Details that have been invisible are now apparent.
I read where the black contrast of some tvs will make these tvs appear even more sharp and brilliant, but only when viewed in a light subdued room. The quality of this Q TV allows great viewing both in daylight and night time. Another feature that influenced my decision of this set is with the continuity while gaming.
The set does come with leg stands so it can sit on top of an entertainment center. I, however, purchased an additional wall mount so the TV is off any furniture and can't be knocked over by any pets (cats). Installation for this is not difficult, but it is a two person job.
I was pleasantly pleased with the smart functions available. You have the ability to choose from various subscription based programs (Amazon Prime, Netflix, and others) as well as various internet based services, such as YouTube. It is possible to listen to various radio stations on the TV if they are broadcast on the net. A person could possibly shop online with this set. I haven't tried that, but I don't see any reason why it would be a problem.
My only complaint would be in the design in the remote control. It's very sensitive and you will lose what you are watching if it is dropped on the floor, or if that cats walk on them. Also, it's almost too simplistic to function with the cable service. It's much easier to use their remote in changing the channel or watching shows off the DVR than trying to figure out how to get the TV remote working.
One final note that I was pleased about was delivery. Amazon treated this as the i.portant item that it was, and required a signature by someone present upon delivery. It's just as well; who wants to leave a 72" long parcel out by their front door?
Again, I'm very pleased with this, and the quality and sharpness still amaze me at times.
