1. I don't have cable/dish connected, so i cant test that. from YouTube video testing upscaling is excellent from 1080p , 720p also ok, 480p and lower I would say average.
2. Check the attached image below.
3. Not that pronounced, local dimming is ok, not at all distracting. but screen bleed is there on the edges. check image.
4. HDR gaming with console is awesome, with getting HDR to work is kind of finnicky , my short HDMI cables work great but long range ones are problematic, input signal plus does not get activated easily. Also HDR feels dim in PC mode.
5. Motion is great, haven't had any issues till now.
6. tried 2tb works great.
7. UI is fast smooth, there are some stutters here and there, but app collection mediocre , cant touch Android TV. since i am always connected to a PC, I have no qualms.
8. Don't really know how to test this, tried some local dimming tests and felt ok.
