Pros:

Excellent OLED picture quality
Deeper Blacks
Sleek HDTV design
Sound quality is awsome
Easy to use interface

Cons:

Android operating system sometimes lags
It is on the expensive side
It has some apps compatibility
Remote is oddly designed

Verdict:

The highlight of this HDTV is the OLED panel screen the main advantages of having a OLED screen is that it has the deepest blacks that you can get resulting into a excellent picture quality that no LED tv can replicate. But there are some disadvantages too, OLED can cause "burn in" if it is displaying the image over and over again on longer period of time. I also hope the android operating system can be improved on future firmware updates (if available in the future) cause the HDTV have some app compatibility issues.
