Test Changes

  • Created 8k Box to score upscaling performance of 8k TVs.
  • Calculated Direct Reflections are now shown.
  • Added tests for Freesync and HDMI Forum VRR

Score and Weight Changes

  • Changed reflection scoring to no longer “double count” the Indirect Reflections.
  • TVs with Burn-In Risk now scores a 2 instead of a 1.
  • Motion Interpolation is no longer scored. The previous score was based off which refresh rates it supported, which isn’t a good indicator for how well it interpolates motion. 
  • Category scores are no longer weighted in the usage scores.
  • Minor changes made to the usage scores, to account for motion interpolation and categories no longer being scored.

Review Changes

  • The Remote App box has been removed. Remote app is now in the Remote box.
  • The Temperature box has been removed.
