“I am choosing between a UN65RU8000 (65 inch Premium UHD LED) and a QN55Q70R (55 inch QLED), both from Samsung. My previous TV was an 11 year old 42 inch Toshiba LCD. Both TVs same price. Recommendations?”

Go for the RU8000 - I just bought the 65" and it's a amazing. And it displays bright HDR colors just fine, and general HDR color looks amazing on it. The pros of the Q70R are primarily the full array backlight which allows for local dimming and brightening, and of course the "Q color" they all have now. The color on the RU8000 looks 99.9% as good as the Q70R. The Q70R and others also seem to be slightly less sharp, almost like upscaled content vs native 4k content but not as noticable. I only notice because I'm a huge nerd when it comes to image quality. I went to Best Buy 5 different times to compare all of these TV's before I made my choice. Also, the 65" is so massive that it feels like a theater while a 55" is still very big, but not as immersive.
