No other current tv can even match the brightness of this tv. This tv makes explosions look so bright and spectacular you can feel heat on your face via sensory illusion. Its insane that no other tv manufacturer has replicated this brilliant feature. Not even Vizio has released a subsequent tv so bright; its a shame. I gave this tv to my parents and now I want it back so bad because no other tv has come close to the eye melting photons this tv emits.
