Discover presents personalized recommendations using your viewing history from Prime Video, Disney+, Apple TV, Rakuten Viki, ZEE5 and Discovery+ to suggest titles.

Some tones, especially greens, can look over the top with the TV’s Natural or Vivid picture presets, yet if you switch to the gentler Movie mode the whole picture looks rather washed out and biased towards yellow. It might have been interesting to see if a Filmmaker Mode preset could have improved things, but no such mode is available on this aggressively priced set.The 65U8HQ’s connectivity is strong.
