I picked up my TV this morning and I have some advice based on my experience:

First - DO NOT UPDATE THE TV IF IT COMES WITH FIRMWARE 1098 OR 1211 INSTALLED. I would highly recommend avoiding the Wi-Fi setup all together to ensure this. If you do setup Wi-Fi (which you shouldn't because Tizen is an awful operating system in the first place), make sure to go into the setting immediately and ensure auto updates are off. YouTube has a lot of info on the firmware situation.

Second - You absolutely need a second (or third person) to help. Make sure you follow the unboxing instructions to the letter of the word. There are a lot of horror stories about people bending their units because of how thin the panel is, and the hoops you have to jump through to install the foot base. You absolutely need a flat and padded surface to lay the TV on. We used an inflatable mattress and a microfiber blanket.

Third - As an add-on comment, I highly recommend picking up an Apple TV, Nvidia Shield, or 4K Chromecast. Tizen UI is horrendous, slow, and has ads. Other than that, this TV is incredible for the price.

Your comment cannot be blank.

Aren't we already in a recession according to objective measures?
I think companies are unloading inventory across the board, in case there is a recession next year.
Nice! I'm still going to wait more since every month is dropping price little by little

Quote from IndigoStew3130 :
Hello,
Can anyone recommend which might be better? I'm not familiar with tech specs 🥲
I have been looking at the LG 48"-55" CX, C1, & C2 and now this has caught my attention. Which would be ideal? Costco seems to have decent pricing on the LGs and a 90day return policy.
Thanks in advance!
Going by Consumer Reports, Rtings, and other tech reviews, if you want a top rated Oled then you'll want a LG G1, G2, C1, C2, Samsung S95B, Sony A90J, A90K, or the A95K. I read that the blacks aren't so black anymore in the Samsung and the Sony A95K once ambient light hits the screen so they're best for a darker room. The G1 and G2 come with a 5 year warranty when bought new. I have a G1 and like that remote controls basically anything connected to the tv. Samsung is the same. The LG remote is better than the Samsungs, in my opinion. The Sony's only controls cable boxes as far as I know. I know Microcenter sells refurbished 55 C1's for $800. Anything under 55 inches the C2, C1, or A90K are your only choices from the list. Bestbuy sells the 55 G1 for $1300 currently. You can play XBOX games directly on the Samsung through the Gamepass app, so no Xbox needed. The LG does have the Geforce Now app. Not sure about the Sony's gaming apps.

I've had the S95B for about a week now and just got a 75" U8H to compare side by side. The S95B is way too dim for my liking and I'm coming from a 65" C8, which I recall being brighter. Maybe it's the ABL being too aggressive. The only way to amp up the brightness is turning on the Intelligent mode, which looks okay. The U8H is better than I expected, but Dolby Vision definitely has lifted lifted blacks and you can see lots of halos. Hopefully it's fixable. Will probably be returning the S95B.

I've come to the conclusion after reading/watching reviews and looking at these TVs in person, that the difference between deciding which is better in the $1k-2400k range of TVs are pretty subjective.... Depending on scene to scene and even use case.

You have some who want the color signature to be "as intended" or realistic and than others from the sight test that just want something that "pops".

I find it similar to the still camera arguments between purists who want in camera jpgs from dedicated still cameras to look realistic out of camera to those who want raw images and than apply their color science that is no where near realistic but is pleasing to the eye on social media. Most consumers hate the in camera images from dedicated still cameras and prefer the inferior clarity, better color science pictures coming from their smartphone

It's amazing to me how much we are manipulated in the store demo displays for TVs like best buy where only the flagships and 70+ inch models get eye candy demos being displayed while everything else gets "best buy adware" content. Most buyers don't get to truly evaluate since I'm guessing that most of it would all look too similar and consumers would probably ask themselves.... "Why would I pay more?"

I think TVs manufactures have a problem on their hands similar to still camera makers where they cant push an image quality narrative to get people to spend more or upgrade more frequently.... They can only push the narrative on paper with brightness, gamut and other technical numbers, but with the naked eye... The TV clarity, color and brightness argument is becoming a commodity(they are very subtle) .

I mean besides the black scenes.. which were wonderful on oleds... There were quite a few vibrant scenes that looked much better in non-oled screens costing hundreds less.

If I had my choice, I'd want the brightness of the u8h, the processing of the Sony, the Samsung s95a panel capabilities, non oled resistance to burn in with the price of the u8h.

all the TV's have flaws and I can't say the 200-1000 premiums are worth the flaws of another.

$1499 for U8H, not including $100 off for the current hisense 100 day promotion and I think I can price match for 120 days with my Mastercard up to $250. Side by side the shadow detail and blacks are obviously better on the S95B, but once I return it I wont know any better. The U8H is great. Slight blooming here and there, but much improved over the last FALD tv I tried a few years ago. The brightness is staggering. Upscaling is okay, I can't speak much to it. I just bought the Spears and Munsil disc and hope to calibrate it soon.

Anyone know the merchandise code (MCC) for Samsung.com purchases? I was wondering if a purchase here would code as 5% cash back on the Chase Ink Cash card, which currently offers 5% at office supply stores...

I still see the deal. The Military and EDU programs are different to the EPP, so the prices will sometimes be different.

I've had this for around a week now. People had me nervous about the brightness, , but it's been fine for my needs. Mainly using Intelligent mode so far, but I'm in a bright room and it goes to max, and looks fine.

Also: The remote is solar powered! I was not expecting that. You charge it via USB but there's a solar panel on the back that charges in the light.
