Nice info so VA panel is overall better. So no significant difference between 2016-2017 models then for uhd?

It's highly subjective though haha.

Some ppl just like IPS more, which is why they stick to brands like Sony/LG TV.

I touched the screen with my fingers... Did you tried? That y i m curious whether it is IPS...

As quoted in Rtings comments for MU6300 (equivalent model of MU6100 in US)

"I recently bought the Samsung UE55MU6179 TV after reading the review of the MU6300 on your website, as I thought it also featured a VA panel from Samsung, Innolux, Sharp, AUO or whichever the manufacturer.

To my surprise I found out that Samsung provided my size with a PLS panel from BOE. Here is a picture from the secret service menu. It looks like Samsung does ship the MU6170 series with a VA panel for all the sizes but the 55".

Just wanted to point that out. I am not sure whether I will take the smaller 50" panel as I found out that the 55" PLS still fulfills my needs.

Very confusing and disappointing strategy by Samsung UE.

Have a nice day and thanks for the reviews."

A majority of MU6300 should be VA panel with some exceptions.

And it's probably not IPS but PLS since PLS is samsung panel (they probably not buying LG IPS panel for their entry level TV)

the unit on display for case also 55inch.. but he say 49 inch also IPS panel, i tried viewing angle that time also, really better than other Samsung model.. dunnoe what is PLS..

PLS is basically Samsung proprietary IPS panel tech.

IPS - In-Plane Switching
PLS - Plane to Line Switching

Anyways basically it is almost the same.

If you watch TV in the dark room, everything is just too bright. Maybe it's nice for a short while, but it will quickly become too taxing on the eyes.

I adjust my TV to the mildest settings when watching TV in my room.

Maybe that's just me.

Sorry, last month still hv stock.
This model is very popular.

Hi, anyone know to how to use the universal remote come with ks7000 to samsung soundbar hwk360. Im able to pass the power test when testing the remote to the soundbar. But after that how am i to switch my remote if i want to use tv instead of soundbar and vice versa? There is no button for it.

can post the picture?

Totally different!
KS7000 is much closer to QLED standard.

Tho there are looks like MU7000 to KS7000 but in reality. It seems like QLED are successor to KS7000.

Yup. Memang no more...
Those claimed they have, better double checks.

Does our samsung tv example ks7000 has same chassis with korean samsung tv? Tq. Their firmware update already 1203.

I believe you can only change it through setting, Sound, Sound Output, switching between HDMI(Receiver)/Optical VS TV Speakers to make the remote work. Samsung universal remote is not really universal, it is basically working as per running it concurrent with the TV, you can't switch it. Like when you map your universal remote to like Astro/HyypTV box, it will only work when you switch over the TV to that input source.


Nope

There is 3 general Firmware of KS7000/KS8000/KS7500/KS8500

ABC = Asia Pacific, Australia, Middle East, etc (Malaysia is here)
AKU = South Korea, USA, etc.
EUC = Euro, UK, etc.

Sadly 1201+ firmware is out for both AKU and EUC, but ABC still stuck at 1180.5 haha. Damn Samsung.

EDIT : Fun Fact, 1201 is out in UK in the beginning of Aug, 1203 in Korea in the beginning of Sept, so maybe AKU have to wait for god knows how long haha. (Prev firmware of all the region is the 1180.5)

Latest 55” Class Q8C Curved QLED someone want to sell for RM5,500 nearby my area. Worth it? It's not from shop. The guy won from lucky draw...

Are you sure there is a Q8C 55 inch? Last I recall officially launching that time Samsung only have the flat panel Q7 55 inch, while the Q8 was going at 65 inch minimum.

Anyways 5.5k MYR for QLED 55 inch is quite reasonable.

For clearer picture this unit is SG set. Not MY set. Seller claim retail is RM12k but when I google online MY don't have this model

SG set meant no warranty in Malaysia or Samsung give international warranty? Or u bring back to Spore to claim?

Likely I will have to bring to SG to claim. Hence the apprehension. For those flagship product how likely the product will fail?

How likely also depend on ur luck. U Ong to buy anything? Lol...

If it currently has no defect and not a lemon unit, then it's very unlikely to develop any issues. Samsung builds solid flagship products. Of course, if you as the user does something to it and it breaks...?... Oh well.
