Best picture on OLED TVs

received 77 inches. It's been hanging on the wall for a week now and so far we like it the best. I'm using an Apple TV so I haven't used any of the streaming features. Also, I'm still using the first generation gamepad, so I'm planning on switching to Arc in the future. Had to buy an upgraded HDMI cable to make Atmos work. The panel has five 3-inch concave curvature points on either side. They're not exactly consistent, so I don't think it's on purpose. They are only visible when switched off and are difficult to see up close. During the day, they're pretty obvious at 10 feet away with the TV off. The internet seems to think this is common and ignored, calling it either a by-product of the anti-glare coating or a panel voltage issue. In view of the high price, this is hardly noticeable. I've also read that this is called a "panel lottery" where my chances of getting the best panel are slim. Since a return is still possible, I was in limbo on whether to return it or not. It's huge and was delivered on purpose so I don't want to delve into that. Mounting on the wall is a project best left to a professional. It does not come with a stand. My setup is temporary so it's also in limbo. It seemed safer to hang it on the wall ASAP than wait for a professional installation. It comes with an ultra-thin mount that connects at the top with recessed connectors. You are expected to fit in with the things behind it. It accepts a standard wall mount which I currently use. It sits on Amazon's existing large swivel mount and holds up well. It takes two people to set it on a flat surface, remove the packaging, and lift it off a horizontal surface, both of which are a test of nerves.
