Conclusion
| Product | PROS AND CONS |
|---|---|
Westinghouse Edgeless QLED Roku TV | Pros: • Amazing picture quality after proper settings adjustments • Easy to set up and unpack • Good sound quality that fills the room • Remote functionality is strong, allowing control from a distance • Affordable price for the features offered • Works as advertised for basic usage Cons: • Apps are slow and rarely load • Significant bezel around the display, contrary to product images • No physical buttons on the TV, relying solely on the remote • Limited picture quality adjustments available in the menu • Not as sharp of a picture as some might expect Overall Impression: This TV offers impressive picture quality and functionality at an affordable price, making it a good option for casual viewers. However, its slow app performance, lack of physical controls, and limited picture adjustments may frustrate more demanding users. Overall, it’s a solid choice for those willing to invest time in setup and adjustments. |
Roku Smart TV | Pros: • Amazing picture quality for standard content • Smooth processing and functionality • Accurate and fast voice function on the remote • Affordable upgrade option Cons: • Inability to support HDR10+, leading to poor viewing experiences • Limited picture settings with no option to reduce resolution • Picture modes for HDR10+ result in unsatisfactory visuals • No ability to deactivate HDR, making certain content unwatchable • Ongoing issues with Roku TV settings not being addressed Overall Impression: While the 55” QLED TV offers excellent picture quality and smooth performance for standard viewing, it falls short significantly for HDR10+ content, rendering it nearly unwatchable. The lack of flexibility in picture settings and the inability to deactivate HDR make it a less viable option for consumers who wish to enjoy newer shows that utilize this technology. Overall, it may be a good choice for those who primarily watch non-HDR content, but it is not recommended for avid streamers looking to experience the latest in visual fidelity. |
