LOL took them 2 months to reply. Wonder where they dig those stock out haha.

I'm one of the person that sort of grown into Samsung more saturated color palette (using the AMOLED Phone Note 2 all the way to S7 Edge now, as well as for the past 10 to 15 odd years living room keep getting Samsung TV). Hence why LG looks washed out to me HAHA.

2 years warranty covered by Samsung officially, means they will come to your house to fix any problem with your TV (and change the whole panel if required) The remaining + years (2 or 3) will be covered by the company who sell you the TV. Depends on how the company handle their warranty claim, some will charge for service fee, and usually they won't have on site service (usually). And in some rare cases they'll just replace the whole TV with an equivalent newer model if the repair fee is much higher than just giving you a new one.

I think you're misunderstanding something lol.

Note: Current TVs max out at 10-bit color, but sending a 12-bit signal helps to allow processing (like white balance adjustments) to be enabled without adding banding. - (Source : Rtings)

So since Dolby Vision support 12-bit signals, it allow additional processing even when all TV Panels now are maxed out at 10-bit

12-bit panel will come, X years later

The biggest difference in HDR10 VS DV would actually be the dynamic meta data which actually data encoded in the video signal to tell the TV for this scene, what kind of color/brightness/etc the TV should display, while HDR 10 is static. HDR 10 will give instruction to the TV at the beginning of the video, and the data would carry out throughout the whole video.

Take note that Samsung and Amazon Prime is pushing for the next HDR10+, which is essentially HDR10 with dynamic meta data (yeah the things they do to avoid paying extra royalty to Dolby )

When is HDR10+ Coming? What TV will support? God knows yet haha.

I ended up ignoring LG offering in favor of KS7000 primary due to the reason HDR is so damn messy now, and Dolby Vision content is very very less (I believe only a handful of Netflix videos has DV)

Amazon Prime definitely pushing for the next HDR10+, while Youtube only support in general HDR10 (which hopefully will be upgraded to HDR10+ in the future)

Ultra HD BluRay? Too expensive to purchase now hahaha.

PS4 Pro/X Box One X? HDR10 only.

Well most Samsung remote will work (I have a Samsung TV from 8 years ago and still work with KS7000). So you just have to procure it somehow haha.

Other remote that might work will be Samsung BluRay players that has a TV button on it. (my samsung HT remote also works with KS7000)

IINM if your phone has an IR Blaster, you can also access the service menu through it.

You can also mirror your phone to the TV, and run those LCD tester software, usually cycling between Gradient, White, Black, Red, Blue, Green full screen image to check for any weird or huge ass pixel death.

Never have problem with disconnection. Perhaps you're router is located too far away from the TV?

If you're router is located in another room, and it's a dual band 5ghz/2.4ghz router (AC Router), perhaps you need to switch over to 2.4GHz for better stability (5ghz is damn unstable going through walls LOL)

About the black bars for cinematic movies, there is not much choices but get used to it hahaha since cinematic aspect ratio is like 2.35 : 1 instead of the regular 16 : 9.

Phone turnover rate is much higher than TV so the percentage of burn mark on display is frankly speaking quite low.

Only 1 of my mobile OLED hit burn out issue (orange tint at the bottom middle of the panel) which is my PS Vita 1000 from 5 years+ ago, and i suspected the burn out happen due to the charger (i think i left it charging too long once and it sort of burn the panel near the ports)

I had AMOLED since Note 2, then Note 3, then S7 Edge, and phone usually by the 3rd year you already itchy want to change hahaha.

I think the average of smart phone upgrade is around 2-3 years, barely any will make it to the 5th year mark (there are exception of course)

LOL S7 Edge has dead pixels (more like dead edge points) that probably was there since day 1 but I didn't notice it until a couple of months later.

They just change the whole screen for me including the glass since it is one single unit under warranty within an hour ish.

Fingers crossed I don't need to call them for any of my other Samsung products warranty (Fridge, Washing Machine, TV)

Never install so not very sure.

But on Android Box Astro On The Go require the box to be on WiFi to connect (LAN unable to connect cause it is treated as Mobile Data or something)

Maybe something similar?

Either that or there is no update rendering that app useless LOL.

MU7000 = Year 2017 Model, UHD Premium.
KS7000 = Year 2016 Model, SUHD.

On paper spec, KS7000 is far superior (winning even the newer QLED Q7F in some aspect)

In terms of Design, same; build quality, MU slightly better.

Problem is, KS7000 has been discontinued for a year ish, so good luck finding stocks for it.

Samsung is notorious when pairing Arc especially with older device.

I given up on mine as well and unhooked the HDMI and just use Optical.

Samsung LED TV series are all Edge Back Light so white like leakage is quite normal when playing movies.

On total black screen then you see "some" light pollution creeping from the edge is also quite normal I guess. Unless it is a severe like pollution, like half an inch of constant light bleed then probably your back panel is loose and light is entering or the panel is getting defective.

Black color not uniform is also a LCD inherent problem. If you lucky you get lesser, if you unlucky you get more.

You can always snap a real life picture of your screen and post it here and Samsung support and see if they willing to do anything about it.

Usually unless it is on the extreme side, you have to live with it.

Good luck. If the back light bleeding is severe enough Samsung probably change LCD Panel for you at home.

If it's not display set then it should be roughly between 4.9k to 5.4k.

So yeah a decent price tag. Provided no flaws

500 is enough for you to drive down, check out the set, pack into your car, and drive back up to KL with spare change to spend XD

No problem on my side as well (KS7000)

I'm using 50mbps Unifi WiFi (Wireless AC connection) 5ghz.

EDIT also take note 4k content is pretty much limited in Youtube, Try to search for 4K channel (those that uploaded most of the TV Demo video), and open up Stats for Nerds.

It should be at full 3840 resolution (4k)

Might be a bug with the app.

Try using WiFi 5GHz band. Apparently someone use it as a workaround to get 4k.

Doesnt seem to like only affect KS7000, since owner of Q7, LG and etc also reporting such issue.

For display set the best method is personally check the unit out (you can arm yourself with an older Samsung TV remote to access the service menu to check the total panel on time as well)

Check the back panel whether it is glued to the display without issue (KS7000 is notorious to have back panel separation, and display unit usually will be more than home unit as they on it for prolonged period so heat speeds up the separation)

Pair your smart phone to the TV, run LCD test (all color, find dead pixels) and check for color banding

Run it on total black/gray screen, check for Uniformity, make sure not too much light clouding.

Check the Backlight as well.

I'm beginning to think the back light bleed is due to Panel Glue problem (got gap i.e. light entering elsewhere)

Hope a brand new set will not have this problem.

Lemon unit always exist (in any brands/models)

Just unlucky to get the lemon unit.

At least the after sales service seems good then

LOL I think you mistook him for another person.

jai one with backlight bleeding problem if i remember correctly it is a MU6100.

Pretty new model, plenty of stocks.

Yeah connection too slow. Audio can stream easier than video due to bandwidth.

Upgrade your line XD
