All four HDMI ports support modern high-bandwidth gaming, avoiding the two-port limitation found on many rivals.
Pros: panel type, display technology
Cons: account requirements, DTS support
All four HDMI inputs support the full gaming feature set, a major advantage for households with multiple consoles and a soundbar.
Pros: resolution, contrast ratio
Cons: HDR10+ support, account requirements
Four HDMI 2.1 ports are a major advantage, matching more expensive models and supporting advanced gaming features on every input.
Pros: display technology, response time
Cons: setup ease, account requirements
Having four full-bandwidth HDMI 2.1 inputs removes the usual need to choose which devices receive premium gaming features.
Pros: overall image accuracy, resolution
Cons: motion clarity, response time
Most configurations are described as having two full-bandwidth gaming ports plus separate eARC, which is sufficient for many setups. Conflicting port descriptions make the exact high-bandwidth count worth confirming.
Pros: resolution, HDR format support
Cons: software updates, account requirements
Only one HDMI 2.1 port is a repeated criticism, especially because it also handles eARC. That leaves little flexibility for multiple modern consoles and a soundbar.
Pros: local dimming performance, HDR format support
Cons: gradient handling, banding control
