I just bought this tv yesterday to replace my 120 hz Samsung that just died. Anddddd…. I’m doing everything I can to stop myself from bringing it back to the store. I’ve had nothing but issues trying to play my series X on this. Constantly getting the “Check device power” error..
Thankfully my bipolar wife saved me the trip back to the store to return this tv. By the time I got home from work she had already smashed the screen in 4 places. So, I did what any man would do… went to Best Buy and bought a Sony 65 inch 120 hz. Needless to say, the tv gets taken down off the stand and put in a safe room when I leave for work. Mental illness is no joke… an is getting expensive. Lmfao
@@RoykONizE How do you have your settings set? I'm think it looks really dark and horrible quality. I got mine yesterday and I'm just shocked @ how horrible it looks. Even the frame rate feels off watching streaming apps.
@BrownEyeZo3 try changing the settings in color tone or what ever its called mine out of the box was set to warm. cant think of the setting name but its got Dynamic, Standard, Cool Warm and Film Maker mode. I thought the same thing till i changed that setting.
Your reviews really seem spot on. I know a ton of TVs look extremely similar at first glance, but the deep dive is extremely informative. I've been looking for a decent budget TV (but willing to spend a little more if the right one came along) and in all honesty this one doesn't seem to be even as good as some others I've seen. I was on the fence with this, but your review kept me from biting the bullet (thank you). Even if I wasn't in the market for a TV I love the attention to detail and information in the videos. They're really entertaining.
@37gdog I just brought this from best buy for $499... I was torn between tcl and hisense all same price and tech said go with Samsung... hope I made the right choice or is going back.
FYI - I received this instead of the TV I actually ordered for my "20 years of service points" from my company. It seems I may be stuck with it (and now I have a better idea why). I *REALLY* don't like being forced to join a Samsung account platform, and am super bummed by the lack of voice options. Anyway - really appreciate your channel and your expertise. I'll look for you again, when I am actually going to purchase my next one.
I ran across these at WalMart for roughly $250. I have a 65 inch Samsung in my living room, and was looking to add two of these on each side of it (sports fanatic).. that’s pretty much all I’d use them for is to watch sports. Is it a good buy for that?
Samsung DU 8000 is a better buy. I have a Samsung Soundbar with subwoofer that only accepts Fiber Optical. No HDMI Earc or arc. The soundbar is awesome with Dolby and DTS audio.
@@misterlexx2721 i personally prefer the JBL 5.1 bar w/ sub. after owning multiple sony sound systems, JBL is just way cleaner audio with deeper bass reaches, when connected to HDMI (arc)
Okay I went to Sams club to see what we ordered for my kids and gotta say under all the bright lights of warehouse this one had the best picture next to the OLED's so for me and my family that's why we chose it😁👍👏 😊❤ will be using Roku Express+ on it instead of original set up
Steve I was going to purchase a TCL, but I read you cannot opt out the privacy aspect. I have a question. Is this only with Google TV or all smart tv's thanks?
Hey Steve, I have two options for one is TCL 55-Inch Q65 QLED 4K UHD Smart TV with Google TV and SAMSUNG 55” Class DU6900 Crystal UHD 4K Smart TV UN55DU6900FXZA , I am mostly going to use it for my plasytation 5 and for netflix sometimes, Which one should I buy? i can afford both, thank you
I just bought this TV yesterday to replace an old Samsung that was going dim. May old one had A digital optical connection that took a toslink plug, the new one does not. My hearing aid TV connector requires that plug. Can I get some sort of adaptor.. USB A to toslink, and just plug the hearing aid TV connector into the only USB on this TV ?
I just saw a 65 inch at Walmart in Canada. That’s why I searched your review. You said there’s no 65 inch? Do you think it’s a special Walmart model? Wondering what you think. Thanks

Hi Steve. I'm currently using a Samsung tu8000 tv that I purchased in 2020.

Just picked up an Samsung DU6900 UHD 50" for spare room. How do you set it up to 4k, if possible? So far very disappointed on picture quality compared to replaced Sony Bravia just over 10 years old. Pretty pissed, wasted time on tuning, now I want to throw it in garbage...neither people or background is sharp. Can someone let me know suggestion to tune this?
You need to use streaming apps to get the best pictures or 4k cable box. Sony has the best color, but they are very expensive in comparison to this one
I am trying to find a TV for my kids where i can change the resolution to 720p or 1080p, so they don't use so much bandwidth. I can't find a tv anywhere that has resolution options?? Anybody know one that does that is cheap.
Bizarre sizes. Samsung seriously needs to reconsider their tv lineup. They have "Way" too many models. TCL and Hisense seem to keep it more simple. Example, TCL and Hisense both offer a 85 inch direct lit tv at a budget price. Both offer direct lit with 120hrz, VRR, 2.1 HDMI, and most likely better processing. Samsung DU7200, for the same price, does not offer 120hrz, no VRR, no 2.1 Why?! Because Samsung has too many models!!! Frustrating!!!
