I dunno about 7400F but my brother bought 7100 then he unsatisfied with off angle vewing bcause the screen become whiteish when viewing from side. He came from Plasma TV no wonder about unsatisfaction.

how side are we talking? say at 3 seater also bad viewing angle?

Both are VA panels, so don't expect 178 angle view.
I need more then a month to accomodated my eyes ,after Pana plasma also,but now is OK.

very far side, not 3 seater side but dining table side. Haha

Fair enough. If I wanna eat while watching tv, I would sit at front of tv. I think no issue la for me.

Got myself the 65A7400F. Noticed artifacts during dark scenes. Not sure if it's codec compression issue or input signal issue. Still trying to find out root cause.

Astro, YouTube ,Netflix......4k HDR...?
Any pic...?

Edit:
65" got Motion Enhancement and compensation (MEMC),try to play with.

On YouTube had many good quality clips for testing your screen.

check your "source" (contents)

low bitrate / poorly compressed materials = bad picture quality

Astro is most noticeable, 2nd is Netflix on certain titles.
Sorry no pic atm.

There's no specific setting to on/off MEMC or maybe it's under motion enhancement 'smooth' or 'clear' option?

YouTube 4k HDR looks good maybe because it's 60fps?

FYI, connected to router by cat5e cable on unifi 300mbps.

Yes, I understand. Maybe not good upscaling also...

Astro Ultrabox or older decoder ?

Netflix UHD or normal subscription ?

Wired and Wifi 2.4 is up to 100MBps, only Wifi 5GHz is above 100MBps.

Astro PVR decoder.

Netflix premium

Wired cat5e cable to WiFi 6 router, definitely better than WiFi.

maybe turn off the MEMC will help eliminate the artifact.

You called it artifact?

I think its the black insertion aka memc. I just call it judder since I think that's what seems. Usually involved unpredictable movement like hair being blown, crazy matrix like move... I just tried the same scene with my old 50" plasma and it doesnt suffer as much.

Some review from India 50A71F, very similar with A7400F here....SD content upscaling 4K....

May I know what's your preferred picture settings?
Mine is
Backlight 100
Picture mode standard
Contrast 52
Brightness 47
Colour 50
Tint 0
Sharpness 10
Low blue light off
Colour temperature high
Motion enhancement standard
Noise reduction medium
Digital noise reduction medium
Active contrast medium
Colour space auto

I kept the backlight at stock 50 (some profile set at 55). Reduced brightness to 47. Personally I don't like it too bright. I don't even see any difference between 50 backlight to 100 backlight except when viewing hdr content on YouTube. I had color temp as mid-low. I do bias to Red2 instead.

Today I tried watching 1080p baseball anime and found the artifacts to be very bad. I even tried sport mode. Not sure if the culprit is my 10 years old pc and gpu which isn't doing a good job decoding.

want to ask, those that bought 65", what is your viewing distance?
I know those online recommended viewing distance, but want to know real life scenario how does it pan out.

I'm seated about 10-15ft from my tv

For me..approx 300cm / 10ft (TV screen to Sofa)

Love the immersive / big screen effect. My TV on table top
