Fathers day and I've been ok'd to upgrade my 40" 1080p Samsung which has been a great reliable TV maybe since maybe 2011? So many choices it would be great to get a recommendation from a GZ'er here.

Needs to have:

• Great Sound
• Prefer Connectors on LHS (when looking from front)
• Google TV rather than Android TV (haven't used either but seems like Google TV is a better experience from what I've read)
• Not sure about OLED HDR etc etc
• VESA Mount Compatible
• Optical Out (I have an Onkyo Sound bar that I could use if needed)

I have an Apple TV HD, but think a TV with built-in Chromecast/Apple TV would also be useful.

I guess I like the style of the Sony's and Samsung's (think bezel etc) but am open to anything else.
