I didn’t take a photo for a review, rather to send to a friend and said hey why not write one now.
Box was super easy to disassemble and get the tv out. It was in there very snug so I ended up tilting it up with assistance to get the feet on and get it out a little easier without needing to grip the screen. Not too heavy, it’s lighter than the older, 50 inch that we took out of its place.
Plugged the tv in and it automatically connected to my Amazon account and internet – literally no setup needed. I was even able to download the apps we have on all the bedroom Fire TVs by simply selecting which one to copy! That was a nice feature that made my life easier.
I didn’t take a video, but the picture is perfect from all angles, even from the sides. We watched the Grinch tonight and there was no problem viewing the movie even from the floor – quality is great. Did have to change a few settings but nothing major. There were more settings than I’m even familiar with so I’ll have to read the manual at some point. Seems like the picture is very adjustable to accommodate your viewing needs.
My only con is the sound. I changed the settings and it got a lot better – but after about a half hour I ended up plugging my sound bar back in. It wasn’t as Crystal clear as I’d like – could just be user error.
Highly satisfied with my purchase overall, and glad I finally took a chance on this one!

I got this TV on sale for $279.99 ($299.99 total), and this is, by far, the best TV I have ever purchased in terms of available features, picture quality, and pricing.
Features: Every streaming app is available, and the UI is the least laggy out of any brand I’ve tried. It is literally just like having a Fire TV Stick built into your display. You can plug 4 HDMI cables into it, and you can also use 3.5mm or optical SPDIF audio ports to plug in speakers. The overall build quality feels very sturdy while remaining lightweight.
Quality: The video quality is great on this TV. 4K movies look very sharp, and black levels are surprisingly low. HDR content also looks great on this display. It doesn’t introduce any banding or contrasting issues, in movies or games, as far as I’ve seen. The Auto-HDR feature also makes some SDR content look really good, but I recommend turning it off if things begin to look TOO vibrant. The audio quality is on par with every other normal TV. The speakers aren’t very loud, and they can’t reach very low. I suggest doing what I did and buy yourself a basic 2.1ch speaker setup or soundbar.
Gaming: Gaming is great on this TV. When you are playing on an Xbox, PlayStation, or Nintendo Switch and you launch a game, the TV will automatically switch to a “Game Mode”. This “Game Mode” reduces input lag, making it so that there is a very small delay between your input and when the action occurs on screen. There is a picture setting preset for game content, and it is perfect for almost anything I’ve played so far. I love playing Forza and The Legend of Zelda on this TV.
Setup: If you sign in with your Amazon account, and you link your other accounts with Amazon, signing into things is a breeze. Also, using your phone to set up the TV works very well. There are a TON of options that let you adjust how you want the picture to look or the audio to sound. No other brand lets you tweak that many settings.
In conclusion: This is a great TV at a great price. You are not being scammed, and you do not need that $1000+ Samsung QLED. The only thing those might have over this one is they get much brighter. Anyone will be happy with this display, and most people will be happy they saved a few hundred dollars or more.
My entertainment setup:
1) Fire TV Omni Series 50″
2) Xbox One X
3) Sony 4K UHD BD Player
4) Nintendo Switch
5) Nintendo Wii
(the Wii is plugged in using a component to HDMI adapter, and it looks great)

I bought this TV when it was deeply discounted around Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Out of the box setup was a breeze and the TV is beautiful with excellent picture quality. Almost immediately, we began noticing that the TV was responding to the remote on a considerable (yet unpredictable) delay. Example: My children go to sleep, I go downstairs to turn the TV on and the volume was up from when it was last on, Amazon Prime Video previews begin playing loud enough to wake my children but the TV takes nearly 45 seconds to respond to me attempting to turn down the volume or move the icon to a different silent option. Another example is when watching a movie, you may less pause and the audio continues, then when you try to exit the video, the audio keeps playing while in other menus. The examples go on and on. Eventually, I reached out to customer support for assistance, and we went through dou le checking that the software was up to date (it was) and then attempted a factory reset. The factory reset seemed to help so I let the representative go, and as soon as I began watching the TV it was right back to the same nonsense of not responding to basic input. I should note for any skeptics that the remote batteries are fine. The TV will acknowledge input, it just won’t respond properly or timely. In any case, I finally got fed up and requested a call from a representative. I explained the entire situation, and he asked what I wanted to do. I wasn’t entirely sure, but I know that the one thing I want is to be able to watch my TV without this hassle. He explained that the only option short of exchanging it (which I was not interested in for obvious reasons) was to send it back for a refund. I explained that I had bought this TV during one of the only times of the year when they are deeply discounted, and buying a new one now would be ruinously expensive, but this was of no concern to him. He continued to explain that this was my only option as they could not help with purchasing other TV’s. I asked if they could help me to buy a different Amazon TV and he said he could not. I don’t hold the representative accountable, but this is clearly an inferior product. I was even willing to spend a bit more if needed to try my luck with a different Amazon product, (MORE MONEY YOU FOR AMAZON) but for some reason this is not possible. I have bought Samsung products for years and NEVER had a single issue. Most every product they make has exceeded its intended life cycle by MANY years. I rolled the dice with Amazon, admittedly lured in by the whole home integration with Blink cameras etc. Obviously, I made a terrible choice in product, but the greater indiscretion was trusting that Amazon would stand by both their product, and support their customer. The single star this product earned was for picture quality. Thanks for nothing Amazon.

I have a significant investment in Amazon Fire TV Cubes (3) and Sticks (6) and so I decided to try out the Amazon Fire TV (43 Inch Omni). This is for my master bedroom and is not my main viewing TV. I also own an LG 55 inch C6 (OLED), a 65 inch LG 9000 (IPS panel) and a 55 inch Hisense U8G (VA panel) which are fairly high end TV’s that all have above average picture quality and upscale functionality.
The Omni TV does not compare to my main TV’s in picture quality, however, the 4K picture is actually quite decent for a bedroom TV whose main viewing time is either early morning or late evening (in a darkened room). Also, we don’t have any soundbars, DVD players, or Cable boxes attached to the Omni TV. We use YouTube TV for local channels and have a number of streaming services (Prime Video, Netflix, Hulu, etc.).
What I like about the Omni TV
1. Very lightweight at 15.5 pounds making it easy to mount on the wall.
2. Set up was extremely easy since I am a registered Amazon customer. Plug it in, answer a few questions the TV does a software update, linked to my saved settings for WiFi, automatically downloaded my previous applications from my Fire TV Stick and it was ready to go.
3. The interface is exactly like all my other Fire TV Sticks and Cubes, there was no learning curve. The interface is zippy and functions well. After loading 30+ applications I still had 6 GB of memory unused, which is great. I was also able to jailbreak the TV (like the Fire TV Stick) and download Kodi, Cinema HD, Downloader, IP Vanish, and several other 3rd party utilities, with no problem. All applications work great.
4. Based on the integrated voice and Fire TV capability, you don’t need to spend $50 on a FireTV Max or $100 on a Fire TV Cube and a $30 Echo Dot, making the TV an even greater value.
5. The Bluetooth remote is a nice design and easy to use. A bit of an enhancement over the base Fire TV stick remote with some controls unique to the Omni TV (like settings, channel selector, prior key, live TV key)
6. The integrated voice commands worked for the most part. Actually, this is pretty cool and should only get better over time. I do have one issue where Voice Commands such as “Turn on the TV” work just fine, but “Turn Off the TV” does not work. This is a minor issue and hopefully will get fixed with future software updates. Note: Amazon customer service could not find a resolution to this problem other than resetting my TV and wiping out all my downloaded applications/passwords. I elected to live with the problem. All other commands seem to work well.
7. The 4K picture quality is acceptable in the bedroom.
8. The price is excellent. At $300 for the 43-inch TV, it was priced appropriately for the functionality.
9. Once you get used to how to tweak the picture using the Picture Mode function (Standard, Movie, Dynamic, Custom) settings you can improve the quality of the picture a bit. For me, the Movie mode, with Picture Temp set to Warm 1 worked best for me. Compared to other TV’s the number of adjustments are very limited. However, for ease of use for most users, this is probably acceptable. I do like using voice commands to “Switch Picture Mode to Standard, Movie, Dynamic, etc.”. This saves clicking the remote button multiple times and is easier to execute.
10. Integration to my Ring Doorbell and 4 cameras around my property works great. The Omni TV supports either full screen as well as Picture in Picture and is voice-activated. “Show me the Front Yard Camera” is all that is needed to bring up the picture….very easy to do.
11. All my TP-Link KASA smart plugs can be activated via voice through the Omni TV, i.e. “Turn on the bedroom lights”., “Turn off my backyard landscape lights”, etc.
12. Drop-in works across other Echo Dots.
13. The Omni TV can participate in standard “Speaker Groups”. i.e. “Play music Upstairs” works.
14. You can control attached Sound Bars, DVD players, and Cable boxes with this TV (like the Fire TV Cube). With 4HDMI ports, you have a lot of expansion capabilities. It comes with an IR blaster that can be used for non-bluetooth devices.
15. You can attach up to two Echo Dots to this TV to improve the sound quality. In my opinion, the sound quality on this set is ok for a bedroom. Not great, but not bad either. After all, it is a bedroom!!
16. The 43 inch size is perfect for a bedroom TV. Bumping up to a 50 or 55 inch TV would have been too big for my space. Not all TV manufacturers offer this size.
What I don’t like about the Fire TV
1. The lack of Dolby Vision and HDR 10+ limits the 4K picture quality. Dolby Vision should have been included in all the TV’s and not just the 65 and 75 inch models.
2. The backlighting is very basic with direct-lit. I would have paid more to get Full Array backlighting to enhance picture quality.
3. Good HDR requires much higher NITs – I.e. brightness (like 500 to 600) to be truly effective. The Omni TV seems to top out around 325, which is not enough to make HDR details pop in a dark scene.
4. The VA Panel has poor side viewing angles (most all vendors have this problem) but in my bedroom, this was not a problem.
All in all, I would recommend this TV if you want a decent 4K picture for a bedroom, want to save some bucks, and are invested in the Amazon echo system. The price is great for what you get and you don’t need to purchase a Fire TV and Echo Dot to gain voice control with another TV brand.
For the main viewing area, I would pay more for a larger higher quality TV that supports Dolby Vision, Full Array backlighting, better-upscaling processor, and higher HDR peak brightness.
UPDATE 5/2/22 FIX for TV not shutting down by voice command
I was able to solve the voice problem of why the Omni TV’s Alexa would “Turn on the TV” but fail to “Turn off the TV” (it would always go back to the home screen and never shut down). The solution was to go into the Alexa App on my Phone – Select Devices, then – Select All Devices – Find my Omni TV in the device list – Select the Omni TV then TURN OFF Two items 1) Adaptive Listening and 2) Follow up Mode. The minute I made these two changes the TV will now turn off using my voice. Many of my Echo Dots have these features turned on so I made the assumption that the Omni TV would work the same way since these features are available. That was a wrong assumption. My guess is when you have the Follow Up mode turned on, during the shut down process, Alexa gets confused and is waiting for a follow up command (so it does not shut down). In my opinion this is a software bug. I am surprised that Amazon support does not have this easy fix in their knowledge base. If you have this problem, try my fix.

I recently invested in the 43″ Amazon Fire Omni Series Smart TV with 4K Display, and the value for money it offers is truly unbeatable. The stunning 4K visuals elevate my viewing experience, providing a level of clarity and vibrancy that usually comes with a much higher price tag.
What truly seals the deal is the inclusion of Alexa assistance. This smart TV doesn’t just provide entertainment; it introduces a new level of convenience. With Alexa, I effortlessly control every aspect of the TV and the surroundings (lights etc.) using simple voice commands – from changing channels to launching apps – making it a standout in terms of usability.
The seamless integration of Alexa is not just a luxury; it’s a necessity for anyone seeking a smarter and more efficient way to interact with their television. The fact that this feature comes at such an affordable price point makes the Amazon Fire Omni Series Smart TV a true gem in the world of home entertainment.
Setting up the TV was a breeze, and the value-packed remote control ensures that I have both traditional and voice-controlled options at my disposal. In terms of functionality, ease of use, and the added bonus of Alexa, this TV represents unparalleled value for money.
If you’re looking for a 4K Smart TV that not only delivers on visual quality but also includes the brilliance of Alexa assistance without breaking the bank, the Amazon Fire Omni Series Smart TV is the clear winner. It’s a smart investment that redefines what value for money truly means .

I purchased one of these for my girlfriend for an early Christmas present. I was pretty happy she had spoken about purchasing a bit larger TV for her home and I was just the guy to make that happen. It’s always nice when you’re buying a present for yourself as well as your person. It’s pretty hard watching your team on a 40 inch Insignia when you have a beautiful 65 inch Samsung and an awesome sound system at home. I couldn’t let her do this on her own…Lol!
She had some specific criteria about what she wanted even though she didn’t know I was going to do this for HER. 55 inch was as large as she would go and she doesn’t like “clutter”. We obviously need better sound than an old, crappy, no name soundbar as well so we’ll go for the whole show with the Echo Studio speakers and I had an Echo Sub still in the box I didn’t really use. She already had an Echo Show that she loves, so this should be a no brainer, right?
The speakers had already been here for a week when the TV arrived Thursday I put them all under her tree before she got home from work. I wasn’t waiting until Christmas, the next game was on Sunday. The speakers were first that evening and they worked mostly as expected. My initial impressions were good, much better than my old Echo’s although speakers that size aren’t really in the same class as my four old Kef 104/2’s that I have loved since new back in ‘87. Much less “clutter” though and they really do sound pretty good.
On Friday it was time for the initial setup of the TV and of course you have to un-pair the speakers in order to set up a “Home Theater”. That seems a bit over the top, these things are supposed to work together, right? Ok, step by step I guess. I get it set up and the sound is coming out of the speakers. We sit down with a beer and listen to some music and all is good.
On Saturday morning, it’s time to get serious and down comes the old Insignia and the rest of the “clutter” and up goes the new TV. When I turn it on, there is no sound coming from the speakers. Hmm! I tried lots of commands to Alexa and nothing worked. Couldn’t find anything in the app or online to help. Between Friday night and Saturday morning I did one factory reset on the TV and many multiple un-pairing and re-pairing of the TV and the speakers. The only thing I found that would work for me was to go into settings and do a restart. The factory reset requires you to start over from the beginning but the restart at least keeps your settings. Cycling power alone doesn’t help. The biggest problem with the restart is it has to re-calibrate the Home Theater settings which takes about five minutes and part of that time will be without sound as well. This can’t be that hard. This should be one of the easiest TV’s ever made to set up and use. I have to be missing something but every time I ask Alexa to play music, the speakers won’t switch back to playing sound from the TV no matter what I tried.
After I killed the whole morning messing with it, I had to leave so I got it back to the point it was usable with her Apple TV and I told her not to use the A word or it might quit working. Just leave the remote alone also. Saturday evening, I had the same results, couldn’t find any way to fix it. Watched A Star is Born on HBO Max on her Apple TV through this system. Very enjoyable…great movie.
Sunday morning, I decided to search the internet for people who might have been having a similar problem but couldn’t find anything. It’s getting close to game time and I need it working. I probably should have just left it alone but I’m determined. I managed to break it one last time just before the game started so I un-paired everything and turned on the TV speaker because I didn’t have time to set it back up again. The TV speaker option isn’t available if you have it paired with the Home Theater, thanks Amazon. The TV speaker isn’t bad for a TV speaker but it’s not exactly what I paid for.
Sunday evening, I decided I am probably going to have to send the TV back. I hate returning things but on top of the other problems, the menu is glitchy. At times it will slow down and get to the point of freezing completely. Cycling power at least fixes that temporarily. The TV updated to the latest software as soon as it connected to the internet so you wouldn’t think that would be a problem. It’s not like this tv hasn’t been out long enough to fix most of the bugs. Maybe I just got a bad one. Overall, I would say the picture is fine and when working the sound was great but I’ve never had this many problems with a TV out of the box. When you plug them in, they work. They might need some adjustments but they generally work as advertised. I’ve given it enough of my time this weekend to even think about more hours spent with tech support or waiting on software updates.
Monday I purchased a Fire TV Cube and a different TV. Guess what…it worked correctly out of the box. The Apple TV will turn the whole system on when you hit the menu button on the apple remote and the sound plays on the Echo Studios. The Fire TV remote will control the Apple TV. If you hook your HDMI cable to ARC input on the TV, the sound from the TV will play from the Echo Studios also. The concept actually works really well when you pair a Fire TV with Echo Studio’s in a Home Theater setup. Too bad I ended up adding to the clutter. At least it’s pretty small. The Fire TV experience is good and I could probably eliminate the Apple TV but we have already downloaded all the apps she wants and have all the sign in information on it. Besides, we’re both used to and like the interface.
I probably just got a bad TV. There are plenty of good reviews here. This one would have been fine hooked up to my system at home. I liked the menus and they were pretty fast when I wasn’t switching apps and inputs every 5 seconds trying to get the speakers to respond correctly. The cube makes me believe I probably just got a bad TV for some reason. I’ll give it a 3.
David McCrimmon –
I picked up the 50” TV on sale for about $350.
I am blown away by the quality of the picture and the excellent frame rate. Voice activation was not a part of my consideration when choosing this TV but I am pleasantly surprised at how well it works. Voice commands are very fast, accurate and it picks my voice up from across the house without having to scream at it.
All in all I would choose this TV over a more expensive one without any second thoughts. You are getting the same features and picture quality at half the price of name brand competitors. The processing speed while scrolling is also very good, better than more expensive TVs I have tested.

Received my 75inches Amazon fire omini TV today and my first impression is absolutely fantastic. Amazon has not shared much technical information like panel type is IPS or VA but since it supports enhanced dolby vision I assume hardware is high end and supports 12 bit depth at panel and graphics/processor level. I have watched so far SDR and HDR 4k contents and performance is absolutely amazing out of box settings. YouTube, Netflix, Amazon prime videos, Pluto tv, Peacock are my frequently used apps and all worked flawlessly. I will return to my updates after spending some more time with various types of contents, specially enhanced dolby vision.
Update Oct 30th- watched squid games on Netflix in Dolby vision. When source contents are in DV mode this Tv senses the format automatically and DV logo appears on playback. I watched at night time keeping lights off in room and paid attention to all kinds of scenes that were being presented like day light, night times, indoor, outdoor etc. It scored absolutely 100% movie theater level presentation which I thought was never possible on LCD Tv. Color clarity to the extent no detail missed.
Issues- yes I noticed 1 issue too in case Amazon technical team wants to know.
1. Video playback turned absolutely black occasionally with just audio sound going on. This happened while watching episodes of LOST season 2, episodes 16 to 20. It happened consistently when commercials that interrupt automatically in between and absolutely after last commercial is complete, episodes playback resumes with only audio and no video. Exiting episode and returning back to resume play manually always resolved this issue. I assume it to be a software glitch either of IMDB TV or Amazon prime.
Dec 5th update: Installed Ring door bell, Amazon thermostat, Myq garage door opener and camera. All added as a device on Alexa application. Found that Tv gets integrated to Ring door bell and thermostat automatically. Nothing impressed my wife so far but the ease of announcing to Fire Tv straight from bed even when TV is powered off “Alexa set thermostat to xx temperature “ . Just this one smart feature turned out to be biggest winner. Tv continues to perform fantastic so far!
Update Feb 16th,2022 – purchased Amazon studio to enhance dolby atmos sound experience and it made amazing difference. I placed it in center below my bed, found this to be best for room full of sound. Connecting to TV was a piece of cake through Alexa application.
Tv continues to perform well till date and seems like Amazon is pushing automated software updates too.
Happy customer!

The TV is replacing my 15 year old 52″ that still works but just doesn’t have that good of a picture anymore. I read ALL of the reviews on here and was a little sketched out by how many issues some people were having. I decided to pull the trigger, especially for the $700 price point, and thought if it is junk then I’ll return it and go with something else. Although I have only had this thing for a couple days now, I am extremely impressed by the picture and the OS! I used an Amazon Fire TV Stick before with my old TV and as soon as I turned on the new TV, it loaded updates and then asked me if I wanted to transfer the files from my old Firestick to the new Fire TV. It then proceeded to bring all the apps over and saved me a lot of time dealing with this manually. I also paired it with an Echo Studio… this went seamlessly. I can’t speak for the audio of the TV alone, but when paired with the Echo Studio it is outstanding! I am hoping to add a second Echo Studio and a sub very soon! I also subscribe to YouTube TV and after getting the TV set up and running I upgraded to the YouTube TV 4k trial and that is where you really see what this TV is capable of as far as picture quality! I was not really impressed with how some older shows looked… my wife used the term “soap opera looking” and I think that is pretty spot on. I messed with the settings some but didn’t really find a good “fix”. I will continue to adjust and will update if I get that ironed out. One other thing is I noticed in some of the reviews people were complaining about losing the remote and not having a way to turn on the TV other than via Alexa. This TV actually does come with a power button next to the Alexa mic on/off switch.
Overall I am very pleased with the TV. The 4 stars were due to the shipping fiasco. Look, I understand this time of year (between Thanksgiving and Christmas) is a hectic time for shipping items. When I ordered the TV it said the shipping would be in like 2-3 weeks… I was ok with that. But, the 3rd party that Amazon used was terrible. When I would check the tracking update, their website didn’t recognize the tracking number. Then I get an notification that the delivery must be scheduled so that an adult is there to sign for it upon arrival. That’s fine, but they didn’t call and schedule this until the day before delivery to my house. Since the tracking was so jacked up, I had very little time to arrange someone to be at my house between the 4 hour window they gave me! I was able to get someone there for the first couple of hours before I was able to take time off from work to relieve them. I sat there waiting through the entire delivery window and beyond. Finally, 2 hours after the end of the scheduled time they arrive in a smaller box truck. I lost a 1/2 day of work for nothing.
The TV itself is great so far and I will update as I get more use from it, but if you are looking for a less expensive 75″ tv… this one is good choice.
UPDATE 12/12/2022: After playing around with the settings I have been able to get rid of the “soap opera look”. Using the preset video settings, I was using the “Standard” movie setting. After changing that to “Natural” setting, it now looks more like a movie theater vs soap opera. I have also noticed that the dark/black scenes are not showing grit or grainy video like many mentioned in the reviews. In fact, it is a very solid black that I see and perhaps the grainy complaints are due to the source rather than the tv?
The longer I’ve had this tv the more I am VERY pleased with it! It would be nice it if it were a 120Hz vs 60Hz since I do love to watch football and it does pixelate some… but the overall experience has been completely positive for me. I would absolutely recommend this tv to anyone!
One last thing, I mounted the tv on my wall using a wall mount that was rated for 110lbs. The tv is said to be approximately 65lbs. The mount I used is an articulating mount for putting the tv in the corner of a room and having ability to pull it out and position it left/right. Although I had plenty of “room” left in the weight column, it does not let me sleep well at night worrying about waking to see my tv on the floor! I would suggest getting a mount rated for at least 150lbs if using the articulating type.
UPDATE 12/19/2022: As I mentioned above, I have paired my fire tv with an Echo Studio speaker and it sounds outstanding! However, I had an issue with this pairing that I wanted to mention here in case anyone else has had this problem. When I turned on my tv the other morning it would not load up saying that there was no internet connection. After some quick troubleshooting I verified that the internet was working fine on another tv with a firestick in my house. So I tried to do a “restart” of the fire tv application but that didn’t help. I then decided to try to do a hard reboot by disconnecting the power to the tv and speaker. This didn’t work either. In fact, at this point my tv and the speaker were no longer paired (although it said they were in the alexa app on my phone). The speaker attempted to complete its “setup” after the power was turned back on, but couldn’t complete it. It actually got into a loop of “Attempting to connect to internet… preparing device… etc.” So I unplugged the speaker from power and tried to get my tv to work. After doing another reboot on the tv, it came up and was working fine. Once I applied power again to my speaker… my tv started dropping out again and finally lost internet connection. Bottom line is, the speaker was somehow interfering with the tv so I performed a factory reset on the speaker and went and cleared the pairing out of the alexa app on my phone and let everything do it setup again and I re-paired the tv and the speaker and it all is working happy again. I’ve seen some reviews mention the speaker and tv would lose their pairing so I hope this might help someone else. Still happy with both, but if this gets to be a regular occurrence… I will likely change my mind.
UPDATE 21DEC2022: The TV will not work with the Echo Studio via Dolby ATMOS… at least mine don’t. After over an hour on the phone with tech support, the person on the other end told me this after we had tried to factory reset the ECHO Studio and the Fire TV. Hopefully a future OS update will make this work. I suppose it will still work using the fiber optic connection.
FINAL UPDATE 06JAN2022: I actually found out what was causing the Echo Studio speakers to stop working with the Fire TV. After no real help through customer support and actually had a refund scheduled, I dug into the forums and finally found the answer. The Alexa app does not play nice with a VPN. I disabled the VPN and the system has been working flawlessly for 2 weeks. I hope they are able to sort this out with future software updates because I do want to use a VPN if possible. I’m very happy, NOW, with this TV and speaker system!
