u mean it is in portrait?

to get landscape, u need to install/activate adaptive/rotation lock app.

how do u plan to do this?

lan cable or wifi?
enough speed?
what type of 4k... heavy rips or full 4k hdr?

stream direct from pc to tv?
your pc has good 4k player?

or stream to box->tv?
what box u hv?

if yr pc and AVR can handle 4k HDR, the TV will deliver.

ua6800x is basically the same as ue630x other than the HDR function.

so, what worked on ue630x will work on ua6800x.

as for distance... 7-8ft... coming from 50", u will take a few weeks to get used to 60"... like me.

brightnesswise, it's fine.

when the 6800x detects HDR, it will auto turn off OPC and kick in some other settings to bring it to the right brightness.

630x does not do that. so, u gotta turn off manually or use some other setting to get the brightness.

not sure if it is due to 60" vs 50", i do somehow find the picture clarity of 6800x marginally inferior to 630x overall.

one thing to take note about this HDR thingy... the blacks are very black, the bright gets very bright.

e.g... a bright light in the darkness... the lighted part can be glaring while all else is pitch black.

need time to get used to it.... but can play around with the main and sub settings to get what u like best.

the colors are deeper and more vivid in HDR, of course.

have tried that before.

use app to set to landscape, it is good.

the black levels in ua6800x is definitely quite good.

no complaints there.

it gets tricky if u r used to 50", then go 60 or 65"!

also, it depends on the quality of the video u r playing... a 20gb 4k HDR rip won't give the same as a 80gb one or a 4k HDR bluray disc.

then, it's not like u r watching 4k hdr content all the time.

more likely 1080p 8bit SDR stuff - common rips, online streams, tv shows - that, the tv does very well.

at that distance, i do not think u should go beyond 55".

unless u r watching highest quality 1080p/2160p 100% of the time.


i moved my 50" to a room, watching at 7-8ft - this is good, better than previous 42".

the diff between UHD and FullHD tv's is the upscaler in UHD tv's.

for 50", 480p, 720p, even 1080p will come out better in a TV with upscaling.

consider also that as the demand for UHD tv's grow, the quality of hardware used and other features is also better.

but if must save the price diff, nothing wrong too.

soundbar... can't help... never used one.

it's fine, been doing it for decades.

if u unplug the power, it takes longer to reboot the android everytime u power it up.

just use the normal standby mode.

there is another mode u can try - quick start - check settings.

this standby setting supposedly will get the tv into operation even faster but will consume more standby power.

To get a meaningful response to such a question, u gotta tell what kind of 1080p.

Astro, unifitv, online stream or playback, what app, what player device, what file type, file size, etc.??

If u mean small low grade files played with tv usb, i m sure it is poor, no surprise.

If u play big files like 10 or 80gb with good separate box player, that's worth investigating further.

Avi 2gb is very low grade, sure u can understand.

Find n try the same title but mkv 5-10gb, u see the diff.

And be awed if u play same title 40-80gb via separate better player.

The TV is just a slave for display... the tg player also not very good.

Garbage in, garbage out. More so for a large screen tv.

This tv can display excellent stuff... u need better source, better player.

these are 1080p TVs.

traffic here is all for 4k HDR tv's.

quick look, the best one of the lot is the first one sa5200x... highest price, i wud think.

just from the specs, the SA5100M will be a better choice:
.. x2 engine vs ?
.. 2 hdmi vs 1
.. 7.5w x2 speakers vs 5w x2

sa5200x is more costly due to DVBT2 receiver, dolby digital audio.
if u dun need these, sa5100M will be OK.

Its a tuner for digital broadcast thats coming... rtm1, 2, tv3... now under test.

Saves u a separate box, but u still need to get an antenna.

Well.. many incl me.... dun care about that.

good... now u know the diff between big and small files, diff between players.

get bigger files, better player, the tv will deliver its best picture.

i dun think u can disable it.

time int'l connection not so good?

u should check at time broadband thread with other users.

previous model comes with 2 remotes, incl a touchpad.
this model u bot, just one.
the one u got is correct.

no, the tv usb wil detect 1, 2 TB hdd.

it will detect/work with 5ghz. is your router dual band?

go to settings, and do a restart, reboot the android.

dns 8888 or 8844 works good.

can try netflix, should work smoothly even for UHD pack.

cat5e is good for <1gbps speed.

the wifi module of the tv is quite good.

if signal strong enough, 5ghz will trigger; if too far like 50ft, it auto falls back to 2.4ghz.

50 or 60"?

if u hv spent enough time checking all the TV's in the shops and found it bad, u should move on and buy something else.
