What Customers Say

The U8Q series is celebrated for its dazzling brightness and deep blacks from its mini‑LED backlight, and reviewers note that the 55‑inch model produces vibrant, lifelike colours. Gamers benefit from the 165 Hz refresh rate and low input lag, and the Freely platform supplies a wealth of apps. However, the viewing angle is narrow and direct reflections can be distracting, and some colours appear oversaturated in HDR modes. There are minor VRR artefacts and a hint of dirty‑screen effect on uniform backgrounds.
