The Best Tv of 2021?

This television is definitely a top contender of best TV of the year especially if your looking for a tv for movies. The most colour accurate Tv out of the box I’ve seen next to the Panasonic JZ2000. The reason why I pick it over the Panasonic is because of the Google TV user interface which is milessss better than the the one Panasonic uses. The sound quality with the acoustic surface that Sony uses with two actuators built into their screens to allow all the sound to come at you and then they deliver in the low ends of bass as they have 2 subwoofers behind the tv for people that live in flats and don’t want soundbars this tv is definitely one to go for, and completely beats the lg G1 in terms of that. Colour accuracy, Higher Brightness, better upscaling and motion handling are main reasons that Sony are 1 up compared LGs top model the G1. In terms for gaming if your not a heavy gamer, for example you have one new gen console eg. PS5 this tv will be completely fine for you with 120HZ panel, VRR and ALLM. But if you game on Xbox, PS5 and PC you will probably be better off with the LG C1 or G1
