yes.

and take note the bigger the size, the more demanding it is.

esp mediocre-low quality video input.

in contrast, small size like 32-40", anything may come out acceptable.

Sharp uses VA panel, while Sony's is IPS. VA has better "blacks", make it better contrast overall. Just losing out on viewing angles.

if u r on android8, there is PUFFIN browser approved and installed (unless u said no during update).

common browsers like firefox, chrome are not approved in androidtv so u dun see them in playstore... but u can sideload them.

u can also sideload other browsers like brave, dolphin... no restriction, really.

just be mindful some versions of some browsers come with irritating extensions that u may not like, e.g. pop-ups, reminders, etc.

u need to install sideload launcher to ensure all your apk installed apps show at the homescreen...

only apps from tv playstore and some selected ones by sideloading will appear on the launcher.

those not appearing, u access them with another app where they will all be housed.

u can install sideload launcher as already suggested or hal launcher - the 2 most popular ones in playstore.

Astro go works perfectly... Picture quality not bad...

Only thing is the air mouse a bit hard to control and pull the page up/down, left/right.

Any with experience of putting a wireless mouse to control it? So we can scroll up down easier.

tv box = mi box 3 (borrow from fren)
sound bar = sony ct-390

the audio lags like 0.5s, for both online streaming and local playback. same thing happens when i replace the tvbox with a PC

i called to sharp, the technician told me it is becos the signal conversion between analog and digital (which i do not understand what he is saying or he is trying to bs me, as i using all hdmi connection, i assume my signal is all digital)

that, i am surprised.

i use this optical quite a bit, connected to AVR.

whether androidtv apps incl netflix, androidbox, hyppbox, playback or online streams, it is fine, no such lag.

i do not use hdmi arc, mibox or soundbar... don't know enough... maybe u can ask in mibox or soundbar threads.

i am quite sure it is not a TV problem.

while they would like u to spend, they may right about better soundbars.

yr soundbar is a cheap low end one, i think...

personally, i has never used or even played with a soundbar.

never like it, had always used full AVRs... for decades. tongue.gif

Can you set the audio sync or time delay on the sound bar (if they have this option)?

yea, it is a low end soundbar, got it rm7xx last time

it doesnt have any audio sync setting, as it has very basic setting. I bought the soundbar to sony center, they checked and tested, found nothing wrong with the unit.

so i assume the ARC connection got problem, also tried using another hdmi 2.0 cable, doesnt help
