Not better than Geek Squad in terms of coverage
on May 31, 2023
Posted by: SMAS
Verified Purchase:Yes
Only get this if you're getting a TV installed or appliance installed. For big ticket items like TVs, geek squad is much better in terms of coverage. You can tell customer service to replace your TotalTech with Geek Squad on just the TV because it gives better coverage. TotalTech requires you to pay a deductible if repair or replacement is needed... why do you need to pay a deductible???

Best Mini LED TV out there
on May 31, 2023
Posted by: SMAS
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this TV after returning my LG QNED85. This is a Mini LED TV and the picture quality is amazing! I love the new Google TV layout it is much cleaner than the WebOS LG has. I could be biased but Sony really does beat out LG and Samsung in picture quality. I don't really care about the sound since I have a Soundbar connected. It is a bit pricier than the LG but worth the upgrade in my opinion. Wait for it to come on sale. They always come on sale.

Totally worth it for big ticket items!
on May 31, 2023
Posted by: SMAS
Verified Purchase:Yes
Love the geek squad protection! It offers a full protection package and in my opinion it is better than the TotalTech. If you're buying a big ticket item like a TV or any appliance, ask the customer service to cancel your TotalTech from this item and add the geek squad warranty instead. Your TV installation will still be covered because of your active TotalTech. What I don't like about TotalTech is that you have to pay a deductible on certain things... this is like an insurance now...

We~ll do the heavy lifting and save you time and hassle. Enjoy the convenience of our installers professionally setting up and mounting your TV to the wall and configuring your video components. We~ll make recommendations on placement for the best viewing experience and conceal properly rated cabling within the wall in a single stud bay. We'll also add your TV and connected devices to an existing wireless network, perform any needed software or firmware updates, and configure up to two smart streaming services, like Netflix or Disney+. In addition, we~ll program the remotes that come with your equipment and configure an existing voice-control device for basic TV control commands. Once the setup is finished, we~ll take the time to demo your new technology and make sure you know how to use it. Finally, we~ll ensure that all wires and cables are neatly dressed, and that the workspace is clean when we finish. Best Buy~s TV services are backed by a 90-day limited workmanship warranty.

Why pay a deductible?
on May 31, 2023

I personally like Geek Squad better than TotalTech. TotalTech is like insurance and you are required to pay a deductible on certain things... Geek Squad offers better coverage. If you're purchasing big ticket items like an expensive TV or Appliance, get Geek Squad instead of TotalTech on it.

LG~s latest in TV color technology and MiniLED backlighting for a fully loaded, versatile LG LED TV. Experience lifelike picture with more depth and rich colors thanks to the advanced ~7 Gen5 AI Processor 4K that adjusts picture and sound qualities to give you a fabulous experience no matter what you~re watching. Quantum Dot NanoCell Color Technology is worth a thousand words and more by delivering richer, more accurate colors for a beautiful picture every time. And you can see brighter colors with deeper black from MiniLEDs that are 40x smaller than traditional LEDs. Precision Dimming ups the clarity by minimizing the halo effect. And just add popcorn on movie nights to get in the action the way directors intended with FILMMAKER MODE ~ and enhance every moment with Dolby Vision IQ and Dolby Atmos for the ultimate home theater experience. You~ll see it, hear it and feel it with the AI Sound Pro from the ~7 Gen5 AI Processor that automatically up-mixes 2-channel audio into virtual 5.1.2 channel sound for an immersive audio experience every time.

It is good but not worth full price
on May 31, 2023
Posted by: SMAS
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had purchased this for my living room that is very bright. This is Mini LED technology and I think the picture was really good. However, I did see a lot of blooming around objects on screen with black background. If you are viewing from the front, the picture looks great. The moment you view the TV from side angles, you see a lot of blooming in general. Also I am not a big fan of the WebOS. I think it's too cluttered with a lot going on. I ultimately ended up returning this and bought the Sony X95K Mini LED and I'm really happy with that!
