Acer 139 cm (55 inches) I Series 4K Ultra HD Android Smart LED TV AR55AR2851UDFL (Black)

I am writing this review after almost 3 month of use :-
I bought this tv for 10000 and it is totally worth it. Many brands like Mi, Realme etc are very popular in the price segment of 10000 to 15000 but you must try this Acer TV and you will never regret for it.

Sound:- This TV comes with Dolby sound and you can feel the bass when you listen to it, you don’t need to connect any home theater as the speaker is very loud and the sound is also clear.
I have never used my home theater since I bought this TV.
Display is also very fine, colourful and clear.
Tv is also very lightweight,even a child can shift it anywhere.

About the TV – Wonderful
—————————————————————
Probably the best TV in this price range (INR13000).
Good – Google interface, loaded with features, lightweight, 55 watt power consumption, stable design
Average – Sound and Picture quality is quite good but if you compare it with premium brands then obviously not that good.

2. Via chromecast app – project only selected media (pics, videos) or entire phone screen

Ways to connect PC/Laptop –

About the Amazon installation service – Awful
——————————————————-
1. The technician brought a cheap hanging hook that had MRP INR116 on it and asked for INR499 for it without any receipt. He kept telling that it was not for sale and company had sent this specially. However, it clearly had MRP mentioned on it
2. I went to market and bought a much better cabinet for just INR200 and for installation of that as well, technician was really adamant to drill the two required holes on top. He just drilled one on top and one on bottom and kept all the other spare screws ( which I had bought ) with him. After about half an hour of arguments, he finally drilled the other required holes. And for all this, he kept cussing me that I wasted his time. There was no assistance from the person who represented the service agency as well.

This whole process took me two hours to complete that too with lots of arguments. This was the worst installation experience in my life so far.

Bottomline – Please do not avail the ‘so called free’ installation service from Amazon. It is just a scam. Instead call the acer support. They will do the job much better.

Product is good and functioning fine.but there is issue with the exchange program..they are charging but the agent doesnot accept the exchange. So the charges for exchange is going simply to pocket of Amazon..I recommend not to have exchange offers because they will never take it back but you end up paying .

Purchased 55 inches TV for around 26k with 2 years of warranty. Reviewing after 2 months of usage.

PROS :
1. Excellent Picture Quality.
2. Audio is really good.
3. Supports majority of the apps.

CONS :
1. Processing speed is really slow. Restart takes time.
2. There is volume sync issue for some of the apps when you are watching live content. May be next upgrade might fix this issue.
3. TV Remote is not that much user friendly.
