I assume the panel was sourced from LG? So, this is comparable to B4 or C4?

I have this TV, bought it in early February when it was $1,100. I really like it. Excellent colors, smooth, natural is the way I'd describe it. The brightness is good in my moderately bright living room.

Sound is great for a tv, I stopped using my lower end Samsung 2.1 sound bar, the tv's sound is almost as good. Has a built-in subwoofer. However, sound at default config lacks bass, bass enhancement or bass levels needs to be adjusted to make it sound miles better than stock config.
Fire TV is ok, it works, it's not annoying but all my other devices are Roku and those (my newer ones at least) are better IMHO. But again, Fire tv is absolutely not a dealbreaker in my opinion, usable, and yes, the option to use something else is open.
I think it's a great deal at $1K

Run em till they die IMO unless you really need a bigger size. They are great TVs. Glad to see them making a comeback in the states.

This OLED is not terribly bright but otherwise seems solid and I'd expect picture processing to be good with Panny.

I'm in the same boat. I'm worried this thing is going to die any minute yet it keeps working.

I'm on my LCD 55" Panny from 2012 I got from Sears, still working like a dream, before I had a Panny plasma from Circuit City that worked forever until the protective glass got dust behind it and sound was goin out from time to time.Panny use to make great TVs.
