Know before you buy
The Mini LED backlight uses significantly smaller LEDs packed more densely behind the screen. Combined with the XR Backlight Master Drive, this allows for much more precise local dimming, resulting in deeper blacks, higher peak brightness, and less light bleed around bright objects.
Yes, it is well-equipped for gaming. It supports a 120Hz native refresh rate, Variable Refresh Rate (VRR), Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM), and 4K/120Hz input via HDMI 2.1, ensuring smooth, responsive gameplay with minimal input lag.
No, Google TV is built directly into the television. You can access major streaming apps like Netflix, Disney+, and Prime Video directly from the home screen without needing an extra streaming stick or box.
The system uses integrated speakers positioned to align sound with the action on screen, creating a more immersive experience. It also supports Dolby Atmos and DTS:X for a surround-sound effect, and includes Voice Zoom 3 to help keep dialogue clear and distinct.
This TV uses a 600 x 400mm VESA mounting hole pattern. Given the 97.5-inch screen size, ensure your wall mount is rated to support the weight and dimensions of a display this massive.
