Oh man the first episode of Ozark really puts a TV's HDR capabilities to the test... and my TV barely passes. Sort of wishing I had been able to buy a full panel lit TV like the Samsung QLED or Sony X900F... Unfortunately TV's are so damn expensive here, the 55" models were out of my price range. And I am already pushing the size limit at 55" and didn't want to go down to 49"

Still really happy with it, but extremely dark scenes just drive its local dimming function nuts. And you can't turn it off, only set it to low.

Samsung 55" Q6F in US: $1100 regular price at bestbuy. $1634 USD best price I could find

Sony X900F in US: $1300. $2151 best price! More than 65% price increase! Extra for that Sony tag I guess

I paid $1200 for my TV, which basically means I could have bought one of those instead. It's like $900 at BestBuy

K I'm done. Going to bed to cry myself to sleep now
