important mount note! read this, you need to do math!
I really love this tv! The size, quality and smart features is just amazing, especially after waiting a long time to upgrade. I hung this tv on a tv console, and that was the most frustrating part for me, so I knocked a star off because it really should have better instructions. I had to do alot of online researching! This tv has vesa mounts which is good - the instructions say 20-22mm size m8. I tried a 20mm m8 screw and it did not work. It turns out that is the length that you need to aim for INSIDE the tv, not the actual screw length. Do actual measurements, or take your best guess at it like I did. For the tv bracket that came with the console stand, I had to use a 25mm screw to accomodate the width of the bracket. The most frustrating part is that the tv has an irregular shape back and it is not mentioned anywhere, the bottom two vesa screws will need to be LONGER than the top two screws! I had to use an even longer screw coupled with a spacer under the bracket against the tv (as per the tv console instructions) to get the bottom screws to hold - the screw for that one was 45 mm and the math was 45 mm screw - 22 mm spacer = 23 mm then take that distance: 23 mm - you need minimum of 20mm inside of tv = gives 3mm space for bracket and washer. Also note that this tv does not come with ANY mounting screws or spacers, you should buy a mounting screw kit with various size screws, washers and spacers in addition to your tv bracket/console. I wasted a few hours on a weekend on figuring this out so hopefully my review helps at least one person. Also, if you plan to mount on a tv console, make sure that it can support your tv! After I bought this tv, I realized that my current console only supported up to 55 and I bought a 65! I had to wait an additional 2 weeks with my tv on the floor while the new tv stand was being shipped, and then I had to build it! Sigh, this was a project and that was an unexpected expense for me. It was worth it at the end though.I also purchased the 43 inch, and that one DOES have a flat and not curved irregular back - I really love this tv too! Another note - for amazon video, on occasion I would see a "something went wrong" message. To fix this issue, I had to do a hard reboot by holding the power button for 10 seconds. If you have any issues with apps such as amazon, hulu, netflix, etc - in the settings, there is also an option to "reinstall" each app if needed.
