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

Well fail or not it is highly dependent on luck. It doesnt matter if you buying a flagship or even the RM90k 80 inch TV. When it want to fail it will fail.

Don't forget Samsung Malaysia warranty is on site service (means they come to your hose to do replacement panel and etc) and it's 2 years warranty.

55 inch QLED series will be going around 5k price range (albeit it will be the flat version Q7) roughly between Feb to June 2018. If you're not in a hurry, and you're not a big fan of curved screen, might as well just don't get the SG unit. (let Singaporean buy it instead, since they lose the risk of warranty trouble)

Is there a reason why 43 inch though. I believe for sub 1.5k to 2k you can actually get last year model 49 inch Full HD TV (55 inch KU series is even going at 2.something k if you willing to go further and able to find some bargain, you need to hunt hard though, cause the price is random between 2.x k to 3.x k lol).

Anyways both is similar spec on paper, so just go eyeball the showroom unit and see which panel you like better in terms of color.

Do take note that both of the TV you list is 50hz panel, so for PS4, if you play those 60fps games, the panel could not process the additional frames cause hardware limited to 50 hz. (well granted most PS4 games are capped to 30fps, but if FPS games and action games usually there is a 60fps mode)

So if you got some extra money and space, go hunt for last year Samsung KU 6xxx model. 5 series model are all 50 hz panel

hey thanks for sharing. Indeed I am limited to the 43" size as the most optimum viewing size for my room
And 50hz is fine for me for these specs.
Those 2 are quite balanced but I'm leaning more towards the Samsung now as it has the built in Bluetooth which can comes in handy.
Anyone knows if I can pair it with my normal Bluetooth earphone or it needs to connect to a Samsung Mobile device (as per the description) in order for it to work.

Hey guys,

Kinda stuck between two 65" models:
KS7500
MU7000

I gather the former is better than the latter. Ideally I'd prefer flat rather than curved, but given these two choice, which out do you think I should go for (and why).
Thanks!


p.s. I dont think I can get any of the 65" KS7000 models anywhere right?

65 inch KS7000 is never even released in Malaysia. (Only US and UK)

I would go for KS7500 (purely because KS7xxx panel is more superior in terms of peak brightness and contrast as compared to the MU7000), but if curved is a real deal breaker (I forgo 65 inch KS7500 in favor of 55 inch flat KS7000 half a year ago due to the fact it is curved even though I kinda need t bigger TV LOL, ended up I just move my seating position nearer to the 55 inch lol), then your next best choice would be the MU7 series. I'm pretty sure Q7F is still very overpriced (is it around 8k for a 55 inch now?)

Also the price at that time was RM4900 for KS7000 55 inch vs the RM8k+ near to 9k for 65 inch KS7500, I can almost buy 2 TV with a 65 inch price LOL.

Anyways back to the topic at hand, as mentioned, the KS 7 series panel is better than the MU series as it boost a much higher contrast, much higher peak brightness, which will translate to better HDR capability. I also believe KS series is branded as SUHD, while MU series is branded UHD only (that's just branding naming though). However in rtings, they did note that the true successor for KS8000 (KS7000 here) is actually the Q7F, MU series is not really close to the specification of the panel in KS series.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts guys..
I'm concerned about HDR10+ compatibility. I gather Samsung doesn't support Dolby Vision, so that's out. But given that KS7500 is a 2016 TV, does it lose out to MU7000 in terms of HDR10? (both are 65" tvs btw)?

HDR10+ is in a very weird situation now.

It is assumed 2016 SUHD TV will get HDR10+ capability via Firmware update, *however* where the HDR10+ is limited to in app support or also via HDMI inputs is subject to much debate and heated discussion.

There is no confirmation in regards to HDR10+ via HDMI hardware support update for 2016 SUHD, and even the 2017 QLED/Premium UHD range.

All that is confirmed that in-app will get HDR10+ update in an unspecified time frame due to Amazon Prime and Samsung partnership in pushing for HDR10+ support.

And yes there will be no Dolby Vision, Samsung don't want to pay Dolby royalty tongue.gif

Oh, I just googled and read the reddit stuff.Seems like there isn't a certainty on anything. If we look purely at making $, unlikely Samsung will wanna support the HDR10+ on the older 2016 SUHD models. 2017 QLED models, probably la, given its exorbitant prices.

Most Samsung Smart TV has bluetooth (maybe some variants don't but usually have)

Anyways for Bluetooth

"Only one pair of Bluetooth headphones can be used at once.

To use headphones and the TV speakers simultaneously, navigate to the Main Menu > System > Accessibility > Multi-output Audio."

You probably need to set your remax to "pairing mode" (usually involve some button combination press or something)

Then you go to Menu, Sound, Speaker Setting, and look for Bluetooth (for older TV). For 2016 TV i think it is Menu, Sound, Sound Output, and look for Bluetooth Audio.

Also you probably need to ensure your phone is no longer paired to it (or bluetooth off) cause sometimes your headset is still paired to something else rendering the TV unable to see it.

Yeah only 7 series above have BT at that time.

MU6 series start to have BT already though.

What do you guys thnk about Samsung's KS7500 vs LG SJ850t?

Seems like the latter is bout RM 700 pricier & supports HDR10 and Dolby Vision vs KS7500. However, the LG has a 10 bit panel, which means Dolby Vision won't work 100% right ,
since it needs a 12 bit panel? People seem to speak highly of KS7500's capabilities/performance as well.

I can't seem to find a good comparison between these two models wrt to HDR support, nits performance, gaming capabilities etc. Seems like rtings skipped this Samsung model.

Any thoughts?
Thanks!
