PRO: The picture is very good. The Black Friday price and the delivery were great. Roku is the number one streaming device for good reason. It has all the cool stuff I loved about my Roku stick. The purchase of a TV integrated with Roku seemed like a good idea at the time, however… CONS: 1. Slow starts: if youre used to instant-on TVs, this might bother you. 2. Annoying Remote (its not the one depicted on the box): If you buy this, use the remote control app. The Roku remote (exactly the same as the Roku stick) can be very annoying because of the protruding buttons on the bottom. Just picking up the remote can kick you out of your program and start up one of the channels that occupy those four buttons at the bottom (Netflix, Amazon, CBS News, Sling). Imagine how annoying that can be late at night when all you wanted to do was lower the volume. 3. The remote has no numbers, so using it to view regular TV can be tricky. Dont put it in a guest room because guests would never figure it out. There is a learning curve. 4. This TV replaced a Samsung I used in my home office/bdrm as both a TV and a second monitor for my laptop. This TV will not get the resolution right when I plug in my laptop. It looks so awful it unusable as a monitor. 5. Documentation is scant. BOTTOM LINE: Im replacing this at the next opportunity. Having a hard time trying to figure out whom I might give it to because of the issues with the remote. Till then, Ill try using a universal remote to see if it resolves any issue with the Roku remote.
