Guys i finally got time to open the box and install the TV. I ordered direct from MI site. The box was packed like a tank and it took me more time to remove the packing than installation. The TV looks huge in person my viewing distance is 11-12 ft and i find it borderline distance. My current TV is 5 year old 60 inch Samsung 7 series UHD.
Initial impression is very good and TV looks better than i expected. Few points:
- This is definitely not 1000 nits may be 600-800.Will know more about brightness performance during daytime.
- UI resolution is not good.
- UI is not very slow. I found no issues. It is not as fast as Firestick 4k but not bad.
- One big problem i found was missing menu/settings button on remote.
- Very happy with the purchase.
- Slight yellow tint all across.
- Remote needs to be synched once before it works. The very first time, the TV needs to be turned on using the button only.
- Size does matter
I followed the instructions on the box and lifted the box vertically. Found it quite easy.
Here are some pics. Apologies for bad quality.
Cheers,
AJ
