Well packaged, easily set up
Got this TV delivered by common carrier. The packaging was robust and well thought-out. Two non-metallic bands ran around the box. This doesn‘t sound like a big deal, until you know that I live in Oregon. It rains here. The box itself is a glossy print. If it got wet, the trucker might have tried to put a couple of hand holes in the box to carry it. The straps gave him a way to carry it. All the seams around the box were sealed with cellophane tape. Again, the contents were weather-proof. Opening the box was easy. The true creative engineering became available. Closed-cell foam surrounded the TV. An extra, double thick, cardboard slab was packaged on the screen-side of the TV. The packaging attention to detail was obvious. I had every confidence that the TV would perform well, because the manufacturer cares that much to get it to me as it left the factory. After assembly and hook-up, I was not disappointed. This is a great performing product. The sound is a little thin, but I can cure that with a couple speakers plugged into the "Audio Out" port. The color saturation is perfect, and the discreet HDMI ports offer a lot of flexibility. I love it already.
