I’ve only got it set up (plugged in) rather than set up (tweaked), so I have yet to really see what it can do, but it’s such a step up, it’s ridiculous. Huge thanks to H. Bizzle for urging me to go large. I can already tell that it’s not excessively sized for the distance I’m sitting, so I think it was the right decision. Although it very slightly overhangs the stand, it also sits further back than my old set, so it’s really not going to get snagged on anything.
Tomorrow, I will explore settings. I couldn’t even find HDR on my quick look.
Nice one. If you’ve got them, Horizon Zero Dawn and God of War are incredible HDR showcases. I also really like this:

Also, does it affect the wirless signal between the console and controllers?
Not really - the point of it is so in the room with the TV, there’s no visible wires or consoles. Just a wall mounted TV. I switch the Xbox on and off with the controller, so I don’t have to go to the cupboard unless I need to change a disc or something, which is a pretty rare occurrence.
And it’s just a stud wall, so basically two bits of plasterboard between the console and the controller - no issues for PS4 and Xbox, which use RF signals for their controllers. Probably an issue for the Switch joycon, which struggle with a bit of loo roll between them and the console.
