I used this opportunity to replace a 46" tv above my bar and moving to 65" definately had an impact. After reading reviews elsewhere about cracked screens during shipping, I was a little nervous, but the packing seems to be plenty sufficient to protect the TV. Weighing about 55 lbs, it wasn't hard to hang on my flush mount, but you had better hook up the HDMI cables beforehand because it's nearly impossible when mounted.
Setting up was really easy with Netflix, Prime, Spotify, and a few of the other apps. As far as settings go, there are audio and video settings as well as an auto setting for both and they make a noticeable difference. The UI is mostly intuitive and there weren't any frustrations with settings or rearranging and installing apps.
The picture quality is great, but when using the input from my Cox cable box, you will notice some lag in the refresh. That is not the TV's fault though, so I'm getting a 4k box when I have a chance instead of the 1080 box I have now.
Sound quality is above average with the downfiring speakers and the audio setting adjustments are nice depending on what you are watching. When I watched a movie on Netflix, both the audio and video quality were great. I'll probably still add a soundbar to the ARC HDMI, but especially in the space it's in, I wouldn't really need to.
The remote is pretty intuitive. One thing I would change is to make the most used buttons more prominent. i.e. Volume, channel, arrows, select. I haven't tried to use it in the dark, but I suspect that finding the right buttons will be harder than it needs to be.
The only reason that I didn't give five stars is because the glass is a bit reflective compared to other higher end TVs I have in the house. That's mostly a function of my lighting, but this isn't the highest end TV from LG and you can see it in the glass. The other minor complaint is that the bezel is a little wider than other TVs, but for the price point, I am really happy with this TV.
