What do you have on yours?

 

[borygo77]

Android11 which makes things complicated as ****. My one came with 11 as it's european version 120hz panel. Yours 825K have 60hz panel. This would suit me better Where are you from ? We might swap them if you have 65"

Hi Stasiof, can you fix the Netflix UI with blurry text and subtitles? Netflix app is more blurry than other brand Google TV/Android TV, thank you so much!
