Dynamic Crystal ColourWhether you're bingeing on a boxset or feasting on a blockbuster, you’ll see everything in crystal clear and lifelike colour. Dynamic Crystal Colour delivers rich and vibrant images in over one billion shades – 64 times more than conventional UHD TVs.
Object Tracking Sound Lite
Object Tracking Sound Lite chooses which of the TVs front speakers the sound comes through depending on where the action is happening on screen. So you can hear a car fly along your screen or the crowd cheering all around you.
AirSlim with Centre Stand
You don’t just want your TV to look good when it's on - you want it to blend into your room when it's off too. This TV has a slim design with a clean cable solution, so it will look stunning from any angle. It even has the flexibility to work with a wide range of furniture thanks to the centre stand’s small footprint.

Crystal Processor 4K
Think of the processor as the brain of the TV. It works in the background to improve the picture and sound of what you're watching. Simply relax and enjoy the content you love whilst the TV boosts the quality to 4K detail and adjusts the sound depending on what's playing.

HDR powered by HDR10+
HDR - or High Dynamic Range – opens up previously hidden depth and detail in the lightest and darkest scenes. HDR is the range from the lightest to the darkest areas of the picture, and the wider the range the more lifelike the image.
