On the main page of the website I purchased from, all reviews had 4+ stars which I now believe to be fake. I bought this tv on Black Friday thinking to get a cheap deal. I bought this 4K HDR TV specifically for gaming which I’ve just tried doing for 30 minutes+ on my Xbox one X. Was extremely excited until I found out it didn’t work and now have wasted $500 for nothing. This is false advertising at its finest. This is a 1080p TV.
I will continue to try 4K with other applications.

Read moreechnical assistance couldn't tell me that after 4 emails and videos of what's going on,anyway hopefully I can adjust the picture to a better quality than that of the programmed factory settingsI wasn't expecting much when i bought this.
Firstly i bought this mainly to use with my computer setup, at 1080p thru hdmi i could not turn off the overscan which meant i could only see half of my taskbar on Microsoft Windows which made navigation fairly difficult but the image scaled properly in 4k (3840×2160).
When connected to my pc the colors were pretty good but watching tv thru the inbuilt tuner the color felt very bland.
When it came to gaming thru a pc make sure you go into the tv settings and change the hdmi settings from 2k to ...
Read more4k to unlock the 4k 60hz otherwise it will be stuck on 30hz which would only give 30fps, the input lag wasn't too bad as I've seen some TVs make games very difficult to play, this was in acceptable limits. The 9ms response time on led pixels could be a bit better as fast motion images can tend to look a bit blurry. Now when it comes to HDR this feature is 100% useless, once turned on the image becomes absolutely disgusting. It looks like the image is almost polarized, the whites become a dark grey and the dark areas become bright grey, it just becomes a grey mess with some faded colors thrown in. Audio quality was a little better than expected, not as tinny as i thought it would be so I'd say it's acceptable for the price.- Date Purchased

Pretty underwhelmed. First 4K tv and the colours are very washed out. Spent all day trying to get the contrast, brightness, colour sorted and still looks below average. Even on 100% colour still very dull.
The speakers sound tinny and are actually annoying to listen to.
The smart tv option was sold as being able to watch on demand tv. The only on demand that works is abc and sbs. 7, 9 and 10 don't work.
I own other older Kogan tv's which were great. Unfortunately not happy with this one.

Questions & Answers
Ive lost my remote. Is there anyway I can change my tv's input without the remote control?KALED55MU8010SZA
Kogan sent me a link to open a file, not able to open. The reason I cannot view the programs when pressing the Red, Green, Yellow and blue buttons. This FREEVIEW is live streaming and TV catch-up service build directly into the TV's DTV service. Unable to do!
The link I was sent is: https://www.kogan.com/media/files/support_files/KALED49MU8010SZA/MstarUpgrade.bin.
I presume this is the current/updated file. This is the second time it is not downloading. I will appreciate your help. Need my TV during these Covid-19 times.
I have been trying to run the OAD Scan on my TV message comes up "OAD is not available " How can I get my TV firmware updated. The buttons on my remote doesn't interface eg. I VIEW on ABC.
