The ATSC 3.0 tuner and separate antenna guide make local channels convenient to browse alongside streaming content.
Pros: overall image accuracy, resolution
Cons: motion clarity, response time
Traditional TV functions include useful recording and time-shifting, but the US tuner remains ATSC 1.0 rather than the newer ATSC 3.0 standard.
Pros: panel type, display technology
Cons: account requirements, DTS support
Broadcast setup works, but US models lack ATSC 3.0, which limits access to newer over-the-air standards.
Pros: resolution, contrast ratio
Cons: HDR10+ support, account requirements
The lack of ATSC 3.0 is a notable drawback for antenna users who want NextGen TV broadcasts.
Pros: resolution, HDR format support
Cons: software updates, account requirements
One expert specifically criticizes the lack of ATSC 3.0/NextGen TV support. The TV still handles conventional antenna use, but the tuner is not future-facing.
Pros: local dimming performance, HDR format support
Cons: gradient handling, banding control
