Very clean back
 
With a screen panel up to 98-inches, it utilizes an upgraded Ultra Viewing Angle technology which allows the backlight to pass through it. This results the view experience without any glare or reflection from any viewing angle in daytime or bright lit rooms (sweet). To further improve the viewing experience, it even has a automatic light sensor like your smartphone, which can adjust the brightness level when watching late at night or when the sunlight shines in. 
 
Another upgrade is the Direct Full Array technology that puts the backlight LED behind the display with precise brightness control and to deliver deeper black reproduction. Of course, HDR10+ is inside to enhance the contrast for each scene and can support HDMI 2.1 (8K 60P) transmission.
