My Xfinity doesn't even have many UHD channels. They tested TNF on foxsports one time, but it was flickering. So it's not there yet for cable.
For now, my PS5 is occupying it which works out.

Same issue with brightness on an LG C1 in a semi-bright room. Had to increase the brightness on the tv, which alters the picture too much. Will probably return mine.
