Now that all that's out of the way, I still give it 5-stars. Why? Cause it's freaking amazing. First off the picture is 4k which was an upgrade for the TV this replaced, and the picture looks great. I am also just using the stock TV speakers for now, and they're surprisingly decent for built-in speakers. But what I love most about it, is how gosh darn quick and responsive the interface is. When I power it on, it powers up near instantly, and when I open an app it acts like it's just alt-tab switching to it like it was already open, and when I navigate the apps, they move so quick. I primarily use Plex, and on my old TV I had to wait for Roku to boot up, took forever, then I had to launch the plex app, which also took forever, then Plex was slow to navigate and would sometimes crash. All those issues are gone with Fire TV built-into this TV. Plex just opens instantly and navigates flawlessly, so quick, I love it, and since I primarily just use that one app where this TV is, this is perfect for me.
Also, I didn't expect to care at all about the alexa-enabled feature, as I already have a bunch of echo dots and a lot of home automation... however, I actually love the alexa remote. I often ask alexa to do something, like set an alarm, or adjust lighting, ect... and when the TV is on this can make alexa not hear me well. However, with the alexa remote it automatically pauses the video while I press-to-talk to alexa, and automatically unpauses when I let go, and this surprisingly works out really well for me.
This TV was seriously cheap, I got the 50" for under $300. That was a huge plus. Also the whole reason I got it was it was one of the only 4K TV's on the market with Fire TV built-in. That was important to me because I had having several remotes just to use the TV, I want to just always use the native TV remote, so buying a 4k TV and then adding an external Fire TV box wasn't an ideal solution for me. Plus being alexa-enabled I can turn it on by voice with the other echos in the house, not a huge deal, but it is nice to be able to turn it on by voice as I'm walking towards the room it's in so it's ready to go when I get there, even though it does turn on extremely fast anyway.
Overall, I just love how fast the menu is. That's something you never really know until you get your hands on it, and it's such a stark contrast to the TV it replaced, that I want to replace more TVs with this for their 4k Upgrade, however, the thickness bothers me for a main living room. I'd pay three times as much if they'd make a thin 65" version of this and I'd buy it for the main living room.
Picture = 7/10 It's better than most units in the price point but it's not a 480 Hz Samsung.
Sound (internal) = 4/10 I found the internal speaker to be bright and tinny. (more later)
Price = 9/10 If you add up a 50in 4K, FireTV stick, Ethernet adapter, and Sideclick remote for volume, it would be very close.
Remote = 9/10
Ok, sound... Ugh.. The internal speakers by themselves we not so great, so idea #1 was to add on a sub. There are two outputs (3.5mm headphone jack and optical out) so sure why wouldn't it work? Turns out, when something is connected to either outputs the internal speakers turn off. I tried connecting a sub to the optical out but that would require more gear with an extra remote. My final solution was to run headphone jack to RCA into a BOSE Cinemate Series 1. Problem solved.
Now on to the stuff I really, really like about the TV.
1) It is a complete FireTV interface not a Toshiba TV and an add-on app. All the TV functions are run through FireTV menu items for a super clean integration. I just hope the engineers thoroughly test against the TVs because that could be a bad day.
2) The price ('nuff said)
3) The OTA tuner has a channel guide built-in. I don't watch a lot of terrestrial content but it's nice to see the schedule of upcoming shows. Gone are the days of blind channel surfing. Hurrah! There is also a built-in buffer so you can pause and rewind live TV.
4) The TV automatically turns off. Now I'm not talking about a sleep timer that you have to set. Oh no.. This is so much better. If you are watching a video and it ends, first it goes to the screen saver, waits, and then turns itself off. Great for watching movies at bedtime.
5) There is now only ONE, easy to use remote sitting on my table. Change channels, switch inputs, adjust volume, power on/off all from a single remote at no extra charge? But you say... "Al, all TVs do that." Not in my world. There were 4 remotes to keep track of, checklists how to watch different media, training classes for the family, tech support calls when I'm on the road, but best of all I didn't have to spend hours programming a $150 universal remote that needed to be kept in sync.
Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase and my fingers are crossed that I didn't get a dud.
