Does it get out of the way if you don't use the OS? Or is it constantly asking for things or wanting you to sign up during screen savers and turning on or off (like some samsung OSes).

QM6K adds quantum dot technology for better colors, it also get brighter. Depends if your willing to spend the extra money for the QM6K. QM6K is also Google TV vs Fire TV.

This is a BB only model. It doesn't have quantum dot, and is FireTV (which I prefer on a faster set, and this is fast enough), but it's plenty bright even if it's not AS bright as the QM. Being MLED, 144hz, 2 HDMI 2.1 ports, and Fire TV was enough for me to not worry about the QD especially at this price point.For a sub 500$ 65" EVERYTHING has a compromise. A high end OLED will do a lot more/better, but you're paying more for every feature.For a budget TV this is what I chose.

M8LF vs Hisense U6? Any opinions?

Thanks for your insights! I just got the 55-inch version for $400, including tax, from Best Buy. I'm unsure whether we should keep it:

* Would you say Fire TV is better than Google TV or any other manufacturer's OS? I find it a bit basic.
* On startup, it fails to connect to our 5 GHz Wi-Fi about 50% of the time.
* The picture quality is outstanding, but granted, I'm not the most sophisticated critic in this field.

I have a 60-day return window. Currently, I'm leaning toward returning it if I can find a 50- or 55-inch OLED for around $500.

For the $50 dollar difference, I would def go with the U6. Better color, quantum dot tech. If your a heavy gamer the M8 is a good deal.

Yeah seems like a good tv for gaming. I would honestly get it too if it dropped to like $400, if not then I think I'm going to just wait for the Costco QM6K Pro deal on Black Friday. $500 would seem too good to pass up on especially with the warranty.

Vizio mini led quantum is a bit cheaper and has quantum for better color. It's only 60 Hz though.
According to the Wirecutter and pc mag, the video is brighter than the qm6k.

I have that vizio. It's a solid TV for the lower price. But there is no way it is brighter in real content than the qm6k. I read the same articles, but don't care what they measured or how they came up with that. It's not true in the real world.
