Wastes electricity. Does not turn itself off after use, which increases power consumption. Shows videos in 4k resolution. Very versatile, offers a lot of great video services. Good picture quality. Mediocre wifi reception performance. Somewhat confusing operating concept. Has problems playing movies from the home network. Has a LAN connection and memory card slot.
