VW Smart QLED TV 55 inches Review
At around βΉ24,999, worth buying if you prioritize picture quality and immersive audio. Not ideal if you're a heavy gamer who requires extremely low input lag. However, it does come with a few limitations that buyers should be aware of.
During my testing, I found the TV to be excellent for watching sports, with its 60Hz refresh rate and ALLM VRR support providing a smooth and immersive experience. The Dolby Atmos sound system also enhanced my movie-watching experience, with clear and immersive audio. However, it was noted that some minor lag when switching between apps, which could be improved.
