Nothing beats a Sony, remotes all the same, simple hackable android based os.

Recently I made the mistake of getting a lg... nothing but problems with hdmi cec, stupid remote, lame os; wish I would’ve stuck with the Sony…

I agree, but still find it weird — Sony use LG (or Samsung, depending on the model) panels in their TVs, so you'd assume that "going to the source" would be better.

Sony uses Samsung panel for their top-end OLED. What gives them the edge over samsung is that their image processing is the best in the industry.
