As a TV for watching movies and playing console games, it's quite fine, but as a PC monitor it's not really suitable, especially because of the aforementioned negatives, which are caused more by the software.
As a PC monitor, the LG C5 is much more suitable, which incidentally uses an identical panel. The software is not so intrusive and basically solves all the mentioned negatives (VRR flicker is not completely but this is more due to how the technology works at unstable FPS, in comparison it is about 80% less noticeable).
Ambilight, but it is only suitable from a longer distance. Rather distracting when working/playing at a distance of about 1m (can be switched off or set to constant colour).
Built-in subwoofer
Android TV
4 x HDMI 2.1
On the whole, a normal controller that retains the button for switching inputs.
Aggressive screensaver that activates after about 1-2 minutes of static image (no settings).
After about 4-6 hours, it forces an automatic display refresh which can be cancelled 2 times but then not anymore.
When used as a PC monitor, subtle brightness adjustments are constantly visible, which are quite distracting.
VRR (Freesync/G-Sync) suffers from quite noticeable, sometimes annoying flickering.
