TV naming is especially crazy. They have variants for everything from geopraphical location to specific sales events.

My TV lacks the ability to transmit audio via Bluetooth (no, I can't enable it, I think it actually lacks the module). Nobody could have told me that before I bought it, the marketing material and manuals all claim that it has it. There is precisely NO documentation for my specific model.

I'm starting to think that they're actively counting on people not completely testing their devices after getting them.

I bought a TV from Fry's. There's no mention in the English manual, but according to the internet, this model has a DVR built-in, but it only activates if you tell it you're in Brazil when you first set it up.
