SUITABILITY

SKIP IF
Your room is very bright, or the TV shows static news channels 8 hours a day.
11 / DETECTIVE'S TAKE
“Superb panel, two genuine caveats: bright-room performance and static-content habits. If your usage clears those, the picture quality justifies the price. Check last year's model first — it may be €400 less for 95% of the experience.”
