Our verdict

The Sharp GP6765 television has many positive traits that distinguish it in its price range. First of all, the Google TV system provides users with great flexibility and comfort in using a variety of applications and content. The intuitive interface, support for searching in Polish, and the ability to use the Google voice assistant make navigation on the television pleasant and straightforward. Thanks to this platform, users can access a wide range of streaming applications, allowing for easy viewing of movies and series in high quality without the need to connect additional devices. In movies, the picture quality does not disappoint – especially in this price category. In the tested movie scenes, the television handles colour transitions excellently, placing it among the top models in this category. Although this model has some drawbacks, such as not the highest brightness – but not the lowest compared to competing models – the implementation of Dolby Vision significantly enhances picture quality, enabling better detail representation in bright and dark scenes. For gamers, a significant advantage is the low input lag of only 13 ms, allowing for smooth and responsive gaming. The television also demonstrates very good compatibility with computers, offering support for chroma 4:4:4, which translates to excellent text readability and image clarity. It’s worth remembering that the television has a 60hz panel – like all in this price range – so its performance in sports or games may be limited. Additionally, some gamers may be quite disappointed by the absence of certain essential features, despite the presence of HDMI 2.1. The Sharp GP6765 is a solid choice that offers many advantages, such as an excellent Google TV system, remarkable fluidity in tonal transitions, and low input lag. At the same time, this model requires certain compromises, especially regarding brightness and some gaming features. Nevertheless, for those seeking an affordable television, the GP6765 could be an appealing option.

LG NANO81A is essentially a continuation of the NanoCell series, which has hardly changed over the past few years. Aside from a new operating system, a refreshed remote, and a few marketing add-ons, we are dealing with practically the same construction that we have known for years. Thanks to the nano-particle filter, the television can display better, cleaner colours than standard budget televisions, and the IPS panel ensures really decent viewing angles. Unfortunately, for these advantages, we pay the price of very poor blacks and low contrast, which is immediately noticeable during night screenings. Although webOS is still one of the best systems on the market, the biggest problem with the NANO81A is its price, which we simply do not understand. In 2025, this model has huge competition not only from brands like TCL and Hisense but... from LG itself. The model we tested earlier, QNED80A, is equipped with local dimming technology, has a brighter panel, and offers a wider colour palette. Interestingly, at the time of writing this review, the technically superior QNED80A is often much cheaper than the NANO81A. In this situation, the existence of the NanoCell model loses its meaning – unless your priority is solely wide viewing angles, but in our opinion, the price you have to pay for them (at the expense of terrible blacks and a higher cost) is simply too high.

Halo effect and black detail visibility:

Check the visibility of bright lights on a dark background. Mini-LEDs often struggle with this. The photo does not compare black levels – that’s what the video below is for.

The video accurately shows differences in contrast and black levels between TVs, as well as potential issues: halo around bright objects or Mini-LED zone operation visible as brightness jumps.

GP6765 is equipped with a VA panel, which features better contrast compared to IPS panels. VA panels offer deeper blacks and more pronounced differences between bright and dark areas of the image, making them a better choice for viewing in dimly lit rooms. This model uses Direct LED backlighting, which evenly distributes light across the screen, but the lack of local dimming leads to some limitations in black reproduction. As a result, during nighttime viewing, especially in high-contrast scenes like the one from the film "Sicario 2", where there are many dark tones, backlight patches may be noticeable. Instead of perfectly deep blacks, black sections may take on a navy blue hue. This phenomenon can affect the visual experience, particularly for viewers who prefer watching films in darker conditions.

The NanoCell series, including the model NANO81 we tested, is based on an IPS panel. For anyone who's somewhat familiar with screens, this means one thing: huge problems with blacks and contrast. Our measurements here are merciless. A result of 800:1 is, to put it bluntly, a tragic outcome. In practice, this means that what should appear as deep black on the screen looks like a dark grey blob at night. Watching dark films or series in a completely dark room will simply be torture – the image loses all its depth and appears flat. If you do decide to go for this model, we have one key piece of advice for you: don’t watch it in total darkness. To salvage the situation somewhat, it's best to leave a gentle light on in the room, and the ideal solution would be to install LED strips behind the television. Such wall lighting will trick your eye (this is known as simultaneous contrast) and make that grey on the screen seem a bit darker. Nevertheless, the beginning of the test regarding cinematic experiences is looking grim.

LG NANO81A / NANO80A

Sharp GP6765

In movie mode, the television Sharp GP6765 reaches a brightness level of 300 nits; unfortunately, this is quite an average result. Such brightness is closer to the standard SDR image than what full HDR experience should offer. As a result, the television is unable to convey the full depth and dynamism of the picture that one might expect from a good HDR mode. Visual effects that in other models are vivid and detailed may appear muted here, and high-contrast scenes won’t look as impressive. However, it's worth noting that when comparing this result with televisions in this budget, it is a decent score. A positive feature is the fact that the television supports a wide colour gamut of DCI-P3 at 92.5% thanks to the implementation of quantum dots (Quantum Dot/QLED). This is quite a respectable result, especially in this price range. As a result, colours are vibrant and more saturated, which certainly impacts the image quality, although it doesn't fully save the HDR experience due to the limited brightness.

If you're hoping that HDR on the NANO81A will bring tears to your eyes, I have to disappoint you. This TV is just too dark to show what this format is really about. With a brightness of only 250 nits, HDR really only exists on paper here. In practice, during viewing, it's very hard to tell whether we're watching material in high dynamic range or regular SDR – it simply lacks that “punch” of light in the bright parts of the image. But, to balance out the criticism, we do have one light at the end of the tunnel – and quite a distinct one at that. It's about colour gamut coverage. Here, the NanoCell filter shows that it's not just marketing nonsense. Our measurements indicated that the coverage of the DCI-P3 space is around 88%. That's a really solid result, placing this model significantly above typical budget models based on regular white LEDs without any filters. Of course, it still lags a bit behind QLED TVs or advanced panels with PFS filters, but for this price range, the colours are surprisingly saturated and vibrant. It’s just a shame that this low brightness doesn't allow them to fully “spread their wings” with the Nano filter.

Factory Mode

After calibration

Sharp GP6765 was launched in movie mode, which is the best setting for colour reproduction. Unfortunately, even so, the quality is still far from ideal. Starting with the white balance, in SDR mode the graph shows significant increases in the red colour. This effect can make the image appear slightly yellowish, leading to distortion of natural skin tones. As a result, viewers may notice that some scenes seem unnatural, and colours lose their authenticity. In HDR mode, the situation changes dramatically – the dominant colour becomes blue. Such a strong shift towards blue also negatively impacts the colour balance of the image, which can lead to a loss of detail in cool tones. Viewers may feel that the image is somewhat cold and out of balance, which is further highlighted by the fact that the television does not achieve optimal colour reproduction. Tests conducted using the Colour Checker tool confirm these shifts in several tested samples.

When it comes to contrast, in HD mode the range shows a significant jump at the beginning of the graph, but then remains close to the reference line at 2.4. This means that in most scenes, the television is able to deliver a satisfactory level of contrast. For the viewer, this means better perception of details in shadows and greater depth of the image, which affects their overall viewing experience of movies and TV shows. In HDR mode, however, the EOTF curve shows large fluctuations both at the beginning and at the end of the graph. Such fluctuations can lead to inconsistencies in detail reproduction in bright and dark areas of the image. For the viewer, this means that in scenes with intense light, such as explosions or dynamic actions, essential details may disappear and the image may appear blurry. Conversely, in darker parts of the image, the lack of clear differences in shades can cause details to blend into a uniform patch, which significantly reduces the viewing quality. Although movie mode offers the best factory settings in the GP6765, both in the context of colour reproduction and contrast, significant problems do exist.

For every film fan, the natural choice in LG televisions is the Filmmaker Mode. It is designed to show the image as the director intended – without unnecessary "enhancements". Unfortunately, in the case of our test unit NANO81A, the factory settings left a bit to be desired. The main issue turned out to be the white balance. Measurements revealed a distinct deficiency of blue, which in practice meant that many scenes had a slightly yellowish, even "yellowed" tint. The white wasn’t perfectly clean, which took away the freshness of the image. Additionally, the brightness management wasn't perfect either – the factory-set gamma was too low. The image often appeared oversaturated, as if it had been pulled too much from the shadows, which detracted from its naturalness and depth. Fortunately, LG, even in this relatively low price range, does not block access to advanced settings. The calibration options for this model are extensive, which is a significant plus for those who enjoy "fiddling" in the menu. We decided to approach the matter our way and see how much we could squeeze out of this panel with professional calibration.

After calibration, in movie mode, the white balance on the Sharp GP6765 TV for SDR content improves significantly. All the lines on the graph come closer to the reference line. Although they are not perfectly straight, the achieved results are satisfying, considering the price range of this model. Such an improvement in white balance translates into a more natural and accurate colour reproduction, positively affecting the overall visual experience and immersion in the films being watched. Regarding the colour gamut, the initial jump on the graph was not removed, however after this error, the rest of the lines represent the expected effect much better, making the image more coherent and pleasant to view.

In the case of HDR content, the white balance performs slightly worse compared to SDR content, but it is still significantly better than before calibration. The improvement in white balance in HDR contributes to greater colour consistency, making watching films more enjoyable, despite some shortcomings that may occur. Speaking of contrast, it is difficult to claim significant improvement. Our specialists noted that the lack of control over dynamic tone mapping settings prevented achieving significant improvement in EOTF, leading to uneven brightness reproduction.

Despite some shortcomings related to the lack of settings options for dynamic tone mapping, the Sharp GP6765 TV has gained a new face after proper calibration. The improved white balance and better colour reproduction in SDR mode have made the image more natural and pleasant to the eye. Although there are still areas that require improvement, especially in HDR content, the TV offers satisfying visual experiences, making it an interesting choice in its price range.

After calibration, the NANO81A is a completely different television. What LG offers in terms of image enhancement tools, even in such an affordable model, deserves major credit. We were able to completely eliminate that annoying yellowing of whites and make the colours natural, vibrant, and simply "real". In SDR content (i.e., regular television, YouTube, or older films), the picture now looks miles better – it’s clean, well-balanced, and no longer strains the eyes with strange hues. It’s clear that this panel has significant potential, which is simply wasted out of the box due to poor presets. However, we have one serious reservation that calibration cannot fully overcome – it's about brightness management in HDR mode. The LG algorithm in this model is very conservative. The TV deliberately dims the HDR image to avoid clipping the already weak blacks of the IPS panel. The developers faced a choice: either provide more light and accept that black would become light grey, or dial down the brightness to maintain any contrast. They chose the latter. Despite this, after our adjustments, watching anything on the NANO81 is considerably better.

Smoothness of tonal transitions

The fluidity of tonal transitions is one of the greatest advantages of the Sharp GP6765 television. This model performs excellently, so there's no question of immersion being disrupted by this negative effect. In the tested film scenes, no significant problems with colour transitions to darker or lighter shades were observed. This effective representation of tones places the television among the top models available on the market, especially in the context of the smoothness of colour gradation. As a result, viewers can enjoy a more immersive experience.

The fluidity of tonal transitions is an element where the NANO81A really shines. LG proves here that it can refine image processing algorithms even in its cheaper models. During testing, we practically did not notice any banding phenomenon, that annoying "stepping" visible where one colour should smoothly transition into another. Everything looks incredibly natural and smooth. This is clearly evident in bright scenes from the film Kingsman, where the backgrounds remain clean and free from digital artefacts. However, what makes an even greater impression is how the television handles extremely difficult, dark, and foggy shots in The Revenant. Where many budget panels falter and produce ugly blotches instead of a smooth mist, the NANO81A holds its ground, offering very velvety transitions. The only downside is the fact that with darker shades, you may notice the weaker black levels of this television rather than any issues with colour blending.

Image scaling SD (576i)

The model photo shows how it handles upscaling of SD material.

On the Sharp GP6765 television, the “10-bit colour reproduction” feature performs well in the tested scene with light bulbs. Setting this option to “medium” yields satisfactory results, as there are no issues with grain smoothing or blurring of key image elements. The “low” setting also delivers positive results, providing a clear image without adversely affecting details. Such smoothing options for tonal transitions contribute to enhanced visual quality, allowing for more natural colour transitions.

In terms of image scaling, the Sharp GP6765 television has its strengths, such as the absence of overscan when displaying test material. This allows viewers to enjoy a full image without losing any details from the edges. However, in the tested scene with the model, some shortcomings arise. The branches or trousers do not look their best. Their outlines appear slightly jagged, suggesting that effective edge smoothing techniques were not applied. This can make some details look somewhat distorted, which may affect the overall visual experience.

It often happens that cheap 4K panels ruthlessly expose all the "dirty laundry" and imperfections in lower resolution materials. However, with the LG NANO81A, the situation is completely different. It's a really solid performer when it comes to handling content that's far from ideal. The built-in processor does a great job with upscaling. Even older recordings look quite decent on this screen – the image is coherent, cleaned of digital noise, and simply pleasant to the eye. A big plus is the gradation reduction feature, which you can find in the settings. It is exceptionally effective in combating colour banding, which is a godsend when watching low bitrate materials, such as from some streaming services or older files from the web. However, it is worth maintaining a certain vigilance. Since we are dealing with a less powerful chip than in LG's top models, too aggressive a setting for this option can sometimes result in minor artifacts or slight blurring of details. Despite this risk, I definitely encourage experimentation with this feature – in many cases, it can save the viewing experience and make low-quality material fully watchable.

Blur (native resolution, maximum refresh rate):

When it comes to blur and motion fluidity, the Sharp GP6765 television performs quite averagely. It is equipped with a 60 Hz panel, which works well for films. The TV features a motion smoothing function called "Motion Enhancement". With this feature, we can control the fluidity of the motion, allowing us to choose whether the image should appear in a cinematic frame or be more fluid - theatrical. This smoothening function should satisfy most users who focus on film content. However, in the case of sports or games, the Sharp does not perform at its best. In the tested scene with the UFO alien, there is noticeable blurriness, suggesting that the low response time of the panel negatively affects the sharpness of moving objects. Such effects can be particularly frustrating during dynamic sequences where fast movements are common. For those who prefer watching sports or intense video games, the limitations in motion fluidity may be discouraging, making the Sharp GP6765 not necessarily the ideal choice in this category.

In terms of motion fluidity, the NANO81A unfortunately has a bit of a hurdle. The television is based on a panel with a refresh rate of 60Hz. If you're looking for perfect sharpness in dynamic football matches or fast-paced action games, you might feel somewhat dissatisfied. With such a low native refresh rate, fast objects on the screen will always be a bit blurry.

The functionality of Sharp's GP6765 for gamers leaves a lot to be desired. Although this model is equipped with HDMI 2.1 ports, which theoretically should offer a range of modern conveniences, in practice the situation is much worse. The only feature that truly utilises the capabilities of this standard is Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM). Unfortunately, the lack of support for key features such as Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) or HDR Gaming Interest Group (HGIG) makes this TV a less appealing choice for gamers. VRR is essential for eliminating issues with tearing and stuttering, which is particularly important in dynamic games where smoothness of image is crucial. Meanwhile, HGIG allows for optimal HDR reproduction, increasing immersion and visual quality. Although it might seem that the implementation of Dolby Vision will bring significant benefits, for gamers it is completely useless due to the very high input lag in this mode.

One could say that the presence of HDMI 2.1 ports in Sharp GP6765 is a marketing trap that can mislead users into thinking that the HDMI standard automatically entails all its conveniences. Expecting full functionality that should accompany HDMI 2.1 may lead to disappointment.

NANO81A is unfortunately not a device designed with esports in mind. The lack of 120 Hz signal support is a fact that users planning to purchase this model simply have to accept. Nevertheless, LG’s engineers have worked hard to squeeze the maximum potential from this 60 Hz panel, offering a set of features that genuinely improve gaming comfort. First and foremost, the television supports VRR technology (in the range of 48–60 Hz) and ALLM. This ensures that the image remains stable and does not "tear," and the device automatically switches to low latency mode as soon as it detects a signal from a console. Managing these settings is extremely simple thanks to a dedicated system overlay that allows for a quick preview of parameters without leaving the game. A very significant advantage is support for the HGiG format. This solution is crucial for owners of modern consoles, as it allows the television to correctly "understand" the intentions of game developers regarding HDR tone mapping. In practice, this helps avoid the effect of "blown-out" bright spots, such as clouds or light sources, which is unfortunately a common issue in budget LCD televisions.

When it comes to input lag, the Sharp GP6765 TV stands out with very good results. Both in SDR and HDR mode, the input lag is only 13 ms, making it an excellent choice for gamers who expect quick response and precise control. Such a low level of input lag allows for smooth and seamless gaming experiences, which is crucial in dynamic situations. However, it is disappointing that the Dolby Vision mode proves to be useless for gamers, as its input lag is as high as 120 ms. This result is significantly higher than in the other modes and can cause delays in response, which can be frustrating in action or racing games.

When it comes to response speed, the LG NANO81A performs exceptionally well. The input lag we measured is around 12 ms. This is a very low level, which for a gamer means one thing – the delay between moving the stick on the controller and the reaction on the screen is practically unnoticeable. The television excels in dynamic titles where every millisecond counts, and in this respect, it does not fall short of significantly more expensive models.

When it comes to computer work, the Sharp GP6765 TV performs excellently. Thanks to support for chroma 4:4:4, it offers great text clarity, and browsing websites, office work, or watching media is no trouble at all. It's worth noting that the TV has no problems with the visibility of dark shapes, which further enhances work comfort in various lighting conditions. Users can enjoy a clear and detailed image. This is especially important for longer usage. Another advantage is the low input lag of just 13 ms in PC mode. However, the TV is equipped with a 60 Hz panel and does not support G-Sync, which may be a downside for PC gamers. As a result, its rating in this category is lower – it works well for everyday computer work, but in games, especially fast-paced ones, there is a lack of smoothness, which is crucial for seamless gameplay.

Nano81A is a really solid monitor for text work. Thanks to the IPS panel and proper implementation of Chroma 4:4:4, the fonts are very clear and sharp – practically everyone will be satisfied with how this screen performs as a monitor. We only noticed one small detail that we picked up during our laboratory scrutiny: the vertical lines of dark text are slightly darker than the horizontal ones. However, this is such a minimal phenomenon that we did not decide to deduct points for it. The scores only went down with features typically for PC gamers – there was a lack of G-Sync support and high refresh rates above 60 Hz, which will be a significant downside for those looking for a screen for dynamic gaming on the computer.

The viewing angles on the Sharp GP6765 television are one of its weaker points, which is typical for VA panels. Although these panels offer good contrast performance and deep blacks, their performance in terms of viewing angle is significantly limited. When watching from the side, the image loses brightness and colour saturation, leading to noticeable distortions. This can be problematic, especially in situations where the television is being viewed by a larger group of people from different positions. In such cases, those sitting to the side may notice that colours become more faded and contrast decreases, negatively impacting the overall visual experience.

For those who plan to use the television mainly alone or in a small group, this may not be a major issue. However, for larger gatherings or family movie nights, the limited viewing angles can be frustrating.

This is the moment when the LG NANO81A can finally "breathe" and make up for the points lost in the black and contrast categories. Due to the use of an IPS panel, the viewing angles here are simply very good. It is in this section that the tested model gains the most and clearly shows its advantage over competing televisions equipped with VA panels. In practice, this means that the image does not lose quality even when viewed at a large angle. This makes the NANO81A a great choice for people who have a wide furniture layout in their living room or often watch matches and movies with a larger group.

LG NANO81A / NANO80A : 247 cd/m2

Sharp GP6765: 265 cd/m2

In the context of daytime viewing, the television Sharp GP6765 performs averagely. Despite the use of a satin panel, the television struggles with reflections of bright objects, which can be problematic in well-lit rooms. Additionally, the maximum brightness of only 265 nits significantly limits the viewing comfort in bright conditions. At such a brightness level, images can appear washed out and hard to perceive, leading to a loss of contrast and detail in a more illuminated environment. Those planning to use the television in bright rooms or during the day may be disappointed with its performance. If you intend to watch movies or TV shows in such conditions, it may be worth considering alternative models that offer higher brightness and better resistance to light reflections.

NANO81A is a relatively dark television, so it works best in rooms where you have control over the lighting. With a brightness of around 250 nits, it's hard to recommend it with a clear conscience for very bright, heavily sunlit lounges – in such conditions, the picture will simply lack punch. Nonetheless, LG deserves a small plus for the screen finish. The satin matrix used here quite effectively suppresses reflections. As a result, even if there is a bit of light in the room, you won't see reflections of every detail from your surroundings on the screen. So, if you can slightly close the blinds, a daytime viewing experience will definitely be possible, but this model simply wasn’t designed to "fight" full sunlight.

The TV Sharp GP6765 offers a range of modern features that enhance its usability and user comfort. The central element of the model is the Google TV system, which provides easy access to favourite apps, streaming services, and video content. The interface is intuitive and supports searching in Polish, allowing for quick discovery of interesting content. Users can take advantage of Google Assistant, which enables voice control of the TV. This makes interaction with the device more natural, and issuing commands related to playback or changing settings is extremely simple. The TV also supports connecting various devices, such as mice or headphones, which increases its functionality. With a mouse, navigation through the Google TV interface becomes more comfortable, while headphones allow for discreet viewing of favourite content without disturbing the surroundings.

Unfortunately, the TV also has some limitations. It lacks the Picture-in-Picture (PiP) feature, which may be problematic for those who want to watch two sources simultaneously, such as a movie and a sports broadcast. Additionally, the inability to record limits the use of on-demand TV, and the absence of AirPlay can be frustrating for Apple device users who want to easily stream content to the TV screen. Sharp GP6765 is a TV with a solid set of features that will certainly meet the expectations of many users, but it may be less suitable for those who are looking for more advanced multimedia options.

Smart Features: WebOS

One of the greatest advantages of the NANO81A model is its “brain,” that is, the operating system. LG has implemented a full-fledged WebOS version for 2025, which in terms of fluidity and usability is on par with the more expensive models from this brand. Applications launch smoothly, and navigating the menu is a pure pleasure - there’s no sign of the annoying stutters often found in budget competitors. This is all thanks to the unique remote with a pointer (cursor) function, which has undergone a visual overhaul this year. The manufacturer has opted for minimalism - the new Magic remote is significantly smaller and more ergonomic than its predecessors. It fits perfectly in the hand, but this change has a downside as well. The physical number section has completely disappeared from the casing. For younger users, accustomed to streaming and selecting tiles, this will be no problem. However, older household members, who are used to entering channel numbers from memory, will have to change their long-standing habits.

Everyday Use

In terms of features that we would call “classic,” the NANO81A relies on tried-and-true standards. It is not a multimedia powerhouse that will surprise you with exotic additions, but in everyday television use, it performs flawlessly. The operation of traditional terrestrial or cable television, including even the old good Teletext, is correct and intuitive. Wireless communication also deserves praise. The Bluetooth module works very reliably, allowing for quick and stable connections to a game console controller or wireless headphones and speakers. It’s simply a television that “works” – it is stable, predictable, and does not cause unnecessary complications in daily use.

Thanks to the Google TV system, the Sharp GP6765 television provides users with great flexibility in playing files from USB. The ability to install various media playback applications, such as VLC or MX Player, ensures that the device easily supports most popular file formats. Whether it’s movies, music, or photos, support for multiple formats offers convenient and smooth access to content stored on external drives.

Many users still rely on their own USB drives to display movies or photos on a large screen. In this respect, the NANO81A performs quite decently – the built-in player supports a wide range of video and audio codecs, so most movie libraries will fire up "straight away". However, it's important to remember the specifics of the WebOS system. Since it is a closed environment, we are stuck with what the manufacturer has provided for us. There is no option to install alternative players (like the popular VLC), so if the system player can't handle something, there isn't much that can be done about it. During testing, we encountered a few specific limitations. Firstly, there is a lack of support for HEIC files. If you take photos with an iPhone and want to view them directly from a USB drive, the TV simply won't see them – it's worth changing the save format to JPG on the phone right away. We also noticed that the player struggles with processing very large graphic files. Photos with a resolution of around 20–28 Mpix may not load or may cause system errors. Aside from these exceptions, everyday multimedia handling is hassle-free.

When it comes to sound, the Sharp GP6765 TV has a few significant shortcomings. Firstly, it lacks bass, which can be disappointing for those who prefer deeper audio. Nevertheless, the sound is loud and relatively clear, which can be beneficial for people with hearing issues. However, it’s worth noting that to have the high frequencies sound decent, it is necessary to turn off the “Dolby sound processing” option. Otherwise, the sound becomes very "shrill," negatively impacting the overall listening experience. It should be kept in mind that this assessment is subjective and may vary depending on individual listening preferences.

In terms of audio, the LG NANO81A is surprisingly good compared to its higher-end brother, the QNED80A model. Interestingly, the NanoCell performs slightly better, likely due to its somewhat thicker casing. The increased volume allows for the extraction of any low-frequency nuances – while the bass may not be powerful, it is more clearly defined than in thinner constructions. However, one shouldn’t expect miracles. It’s still a standard 2.0 speaker setup with a total power of 20 W, so the overall sound characteristic remains similar to other models in this price range. The mid and high tones are decent, making dialogues in films and news programs clear. While this slight improvement in the lower registers is appreciated, for true home theatre or listening to music, it’s still worth considering the addition of even a simple soundbar.
