Not really , unless you can find them way cheaper than the current NU8000 .
Thanks for the information , this will be handy for people who want to grab these models in the future.

So means NU8000 >> Q7F ?

Without going into too much details , Samsung's 2017 QLED models are overpriced and underperforming TVs ( As much as I like their designs and screen coating a lot )
It performs worse than the 2016 's KS series in most category , which is absurd .


The QLED isn't exactly a new type of display technology like OLED .
Samsung's PR team decides to coin the term with their LED LCD TVs which has quantum dots , quite typical for the TV marketing campaigns thesedays.

And to understand what exactly does the QLED TV do better than other TVs , it is the color volumes .
This means Q7F can show more colors across different brightness levels , saturated colors even in very bright scenes , which many others struggle with .
However this is severely hindered by Q7F's poor brightness ratings and poor local dimming system.

Here is the thing , for many of mid-range HDR TVs brightness remain the most consistent factor contributing to HDR performance .
Primarily because the TV in these range doesn't has very good control of their backlights . They need that extra brightness on the screen in order to delivery a more punchy HDR effects. Q7f and NU8000 both fall into this category but since the NU8000 is cheaper , brighter in both HDR / SDR , lower Input Latency, picking the NU8000 just seems like a no brainer .


Since NU8000 is a Samsung model , it has some of the new features such as VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) which can be nice for gamers.

thanks for the detailed explanation, won't be going for the Q7F then, since most of it are display units with dunno how many hours burned into it already doh.gif
Will start looking at other brands, but most likely will still stick with Samsung, it seems they still are the most gamer friendly among the other brands

According to someone who purchased 7103 from last page , it is pretty much a repackaged MU6100 with a new shell .

I think we have established that last year's MU6100 actually perform a bit better than this year's NU7100 with a bit more features ( such as the support of 5Ghz WIFI , TV mirroring etc )

Not that it matters very much for entry level models , you still get the same 4k true RGB screen with good contrast levels .
But it is something to be noted if you are planning grab one of these .

Any good deals on NU7400 50inch? Went to bestdenki and saw some good deals but they don't have 50 inch NU7400.
Funny thing is the salesman said there is no 50 inch but only has 49 inch for 7400.

That's a good price, thanks for sharing. However I ordered from SenQ, RM3199-RM50-RM500(old TV trade in)=RM2649 with 5% credit into my membership(around RM150) for next purchase and add one year extra warranty. Citibank gets 2 years extra warranty.

only TV size 55" above have trade-in offers, max value is RM1000, depending on the size & price of TV you wanna buy

your old TV need to be at least 32", complete with stand & remote, and in working order for minimum of RM500 trade-in value

I'm planning to trade in my 8 years old 42" plasma TV as well, SenQ valued it at RM500 trade-in value for purchasing 55NU7400, IMO that's way better than 2nd hand price, which is near to nothing tongue.gif

It can be done thru remote check from samsung. Pls check with them, via live chat from official website is the easiest way
