I bought this to replace my old computer monitor and to fully utilize the 4k resolution of my graphics card. I couldn't be happier.
Works very well as a monitor for my chromebook. I am super impressed.
Used as computer monitor. Resolution matches remote servers well.
Picture is great. I use it fory computer monitor and I can watch tv on it too
Great purchae with it being on sale! Nice size for my kiddos dorm room & works as a decent gaming monitor and excellent as a computer monitor!
I've done some scrounging around online, and, even high level competitive players circa ~2017ish were doing great with worse input lag times than modern stuff gets. I had my calculations completely wrong. I thought there were 100 miliseconds in 1 second for some reason when there are 1000 lol. So a few thousandths of a second truly isn't something to worry about. You can try and hunt around online and youtube for more budget set specs/reviews/input lag, it's a bit harder if something hasn't just been reviewed by rtings which is easily looked up. In a youtube input lag test, these Xumo Pioneer got about ~14ms, the cheapo r6 hisense got about ~12ms, Roku Select in the rtings review got ~13.1ms, and the hisense a7 got the lowest at ~10.8ms, although it apparently has an annoying glitch with gaming mode not working requiring multiple restarts which may end up killing my motivation to get it, per rtings "There is a weird bug where the input lag is much higher than expected. Rebooting the TV multiple times fixes it, and the input lag numbers subsequently fall within expectations."
be wary though, unless there's been some nitty gritty review to let people know ahead of time, some tv's use a "BGR" pixel layout instead of a traditional one. There are apparently workarounds though, per the rtings roku select review "The TV uses a BGR (blue-green-red) subpixel layout. For multimedia usage, this doesn't cause any issues, but it causes text clarity issues when you use this TV as a PC monitor. There are easy workarounds for these issues, however, and you can read about them here". Per the hisense a6 hisense review "This TV uses a BGR subpixel layout, which doesn't impact the image quality, but it makes text look blurry in some applications that don't support the BGR layout, which is important if you want to use it as a PC monitor. You can read more about it here."
Hope that helps anyone also eyeing a cheap but still decent tv. Been doing my homework... I consider myself a techie compared to the average joe but am very much a "buy a cheap but decent enough tv once every ~10 years" type of person

There are few 43" 4k monitors out there except very expensvie ones. Common 32" monitors are a bit too small for 4k resolution. 43" is just the right size for the eye at 4k resolution.
Another bonus is having a decent speaker. Some monitors have spekers but usually on the weak side.
When you buy from Best Buy like this and you need to return, can you return to store?
Having to pay for return shipping on this seems to be very risky.
I bought this TV directly from my local Best Buy back in Aug to use as a backup for my 43" TCL but returned it almost immediately. Text wasn't sharp enough and I couldn't adjust the brightness and contrast to make it work as an all-day monitor.
Last week I bought a Hisense 43" A6 from Best Buy and it's even better than the TCL as a monitor - so that's what I would recommend.
I bought the Hisense for $150, now it shows up as $170. Maybe get an open box.
The Pioneer is fine if you just want a cheap TV though
