The catch: No USB-C, and HDR brightness falls short of the rated peak.

Early score: only 4 professional reviews so far. Expect it to move as more reviews come in.

3 of these 4 outlets print no score. We estimated theirs from the review text, then adjusted the estimates against the ratings outlets actually print (ours ran slightly low). An estimate is never higher than 92.
