TV Turning on by itself: It seems to be an issue with the power mode. You have to change it so it's not on eco mode, and CEC to Off or ARC only.
Backlight Issues / Glow with subtitles: Unfortunately, this is one of those things i had to start living without. This can be turned off under "Active Full Array". RTings did their test turning this off, and noted it in their review. I don't really think about wanting my display to be any darker because the tradeoff is that it's vivid and bright. You just don't really think about it. I'm not sure if the DSE (Dirty screen effect) is the result of people having Active Full Array on by default. But with it off, it looks like an incredibly responsive TV to me.
ARC Issues: I'm not sure exactly if this is a problem with my Yamaha receiver, or the TV's ARC. But, it seemed to send a signal to the receiver to change the inputs of it. Again, i'm not certain.
Viewing Angle: Yea it's pretty bad on the sides. You'll notice the Active Full Array/backlight glow big time while on the sides, too. But when you do end up in the sweetspot, the contrast is fantastic.
I haven't personally noticed anything with the remote, but the interface does feel a little laggy.
Overall, i've grown to like this TV for the price i paid for the last time it was on SD a month ago.
Rtings gave a pretty good overall score of 8.4/10 with a viewing angle score of 5.2/10. FYI

So $900 for this is still a pretty good deal, but in line with prices from previous years (just not so quickly in the sales cycle).

Here's the comparison, the Q80 out performs it but cost at least 50% more.
