Generic LED LCD wording elsewhere describes the wider LCD category and does not establish a different panel or Mini-LED backlight.","native_refresh_rate_hz":"Exact leaflet explicitly states native 60 Hz. This matches regulatory default image frequency and the manual explicit accepted maximum.

This global maximum, plus each resolution support, establishes maxima rather than relying on preset entries alone.

External Google Home is not a built-in Google Assistant.","smart_home":"Printed page 43 explicitly has Connects with Control4 and instructions to enable integration with a configured Control4 environment. Control4 is implemented per the manual but the schema has no Control4 option, so it is not nearest-mapped to another platform. The Google Assistant section requires an external Google Home device. Alexa client setup is described separately. The current exact leaflet claims Matter compatibility, but no Matter setup or delivered implementation was found in the original guide, so Matter is omitted. HomeKit and AirPlay generation are not established.","bluetooth_audio_out":"Original Bluetooth section explicitly describes TV sound output to a wireless speaker or headphones.
