This thing is huge, and looks terrific. Amzn shipped it fast and w/o any dmg. For the price, it's a heck of a bargain. I'd been struggling btwn the u6 vs u7, and 65" vs larger, but went w the *much* cheaper 65u6 to test out using it in my situation before (years later, I hope) splurging on a later, better, larger one. I really am stunned by how big it is, and the picture looks much better than my (comparably priced) 4k 32" pc monitor from LG.
Settings are mostly straightforward. The docs are just hilariously inadequate; fortunately it's simple enough you can figure it out. Eventually. I liked the ability to disable things via turbo mode, as I'm just using it as a pc monitor and don't need all that nonsense running.
The sound quality on the built in speakers is surprisingly good! I have a high end stereo as my main output, but when I forget to turn it on I'm always surprised at how good the sound from this is! The bass is a little one note but that's to be expected simply from the volume needed to do low bass well; the huge area of the monitor already helps here a lot.
End result; excellent "proof of concept" of using a modern large-ish tv to replace my monitor (eyestrain from focusing close up all day was just killing me).
I'm just using it as a pc monitor currently and really didn't want all the telemetry, advertising, etc crap. So I simply never set up networking, never connected it to the router or wifi. It works fine (as a monitor) w/o any of that. Game mode looks terrific and cuts the latency a fair bit. There's a "turbo mode" (which you can configure) that turns off a lot of bloatware, which is a really nice feature.
Glare/reflection problema are moderate; that's one of the strongest arguments for the u7 series (for my use case), but I wanted an affordable and usable test mule. This is excellent for my use (browsing/gaming at a reasonable focal length in a bright room, but I can appreciate the better reflection mitigation of the higher tier versions.
Overall, I'm super happy with it.
