    I purchased the 55" 8k TV thinking it would have the same anti-glare screen as the 82" 8k TV I have..It does not.. The glare is impossible to ignore, has there been an upgrade because it's not what I was expecting and is far from being anti-glare

    Great as a PC monitor

    I bought this TV to use it a PC monitor. Buying an 8K TV to use a TV at present time is questionable at best because little to no 8K content is available, subjectively 4K content looks better on high-end 4K TVs, and at this point of tech development 4K->8K upscaling is IMHO just marketing gimmick. This is actually my third Samsung 8K TV. Prior to it I owned (still own) Samsung QN55Q900R [2019 model] and Samsung QN65QN800B [2022 model] all of which were used as monitors. This one, QN55QN700B, is probably the best for this purpose. Let me be clear – it is far from being perfect. It was designed as a TV, not as a monitor and it shows, you just have to accept it and live with some inconveniences. Also, I would not use it for professional graphics design. However, as a monitor that can simultaneously display a lot of information in multiple windows it does the job very well. Prior to this one I used a 65” QN65QN800B. It was just too big. 55” is much better and gives a finer pixel pinch (48” would be even better but there is nothing of that size on the market). Also, it fit better into a regular size desk. Some of the pros: 1) Runs relatively cool. The two other 8K TVs I owned generated excessive amount of heat, even the 2022 QN65QN800B. When you sit in a poorly ventilated room at a relatively close distance from the TV it may create discomfort and become an issue. In this regard, QN55QN700B performs rather well. No parts of the TV get hot to the touch after a prolonged use. 2) Good price, especially if you get it on sale. Currently, you can hardly get anything cheaper that has 8K resolution. For reference, Dell 32” UP3218K monitor has a list price of $5,000. 3) True 4:4:4 chroma subsampling. 4) Good image quality. If you are used to high-end or professional monitors, the image quality may not impress you. But having true 8K resolution IMHO beats any advantage in “per pixel” quality you get from hi-end monitors. 5) Some people reported dithering effect. I was able to get rid of it by playing with settings in game mode. 6) Great simple and slim design. It can be hanged on a wall with little or no gap if you wish so. 7) The sound will not win any awards, but it is passable for casual use (for fine sound quality you would probably use headphones anyway). Some of the cons: 1) Halo effect (blooming) typical for many LED or QLED TVs is there. 2) Auto adjustment of brightness and local dimming can be a bit annoying. Not much can be done about it. Hence, I would not recommend it for professional graphics work even if you calibrate it. 3) 60 Hz and HDMI 2.1 only inputs (no DisplayPort 2.0). Also, as I understand it, there is no support for Display Stream Compression (DSC). It is not that critical for me personally and I do not use it for gaming, but it would be nice to have it future-proof and capable of displaying 120 Hz video signal at 8K. Oh boy, things would look so much smoother then. I guess we need to wait a couple of more years for that to become a reality.

    I have been looking out for an 8k display that is smaller than the 65 inch ones that are readily available. When I saw this pop up, I immediately bought it and was excited to use it. However, when I hooked it up to my computer, there are horrible dithering artifacts. I have not found any way to get rid of the artifacts. This is a terrible shame as otherwise this makes for a huge canvas to work with. The PPI of 160 is reasonably high and the lowest that I find acceptable. This is a glossy display which I prefer although I get some glare. Some might not like it, but I can deal with it. My search for a big 8k display continues…

      DisplayEnthusiast,

      I'm sorry to hear of the issues you're experiencing when connecting Samsung's QN700B TV with your PC. The artifacting may be due to the connection type or potentially mismatched or unsupported resolutions between both devices.

      Please give us the opportunity to investigate this for you so we can provide you with further assistance specific to your usage scenario. You can reach Samsung Support at 1-800-SAMSUNG, 8AM - 12AM EST, 7 days a week. Our LiveChat agents are also available by clicking on the ‘Support’ link on our website.

    Just like others have pointed out this is a great display for PCs! I mean it's not an OLED but it doesn't have OLED burn in issues either. I got it in an Open Box deal too under $800 which was really solid for what this is. Previously was considering getting 3 4K 32" monitors or 2 LG Dual Ups, but honestly this is cheaper than those! Has the same arrangement as 4 x 4K in a 2 x 2 Grid of 27" monitors. So if you like a 27" 4K you'll probably like 4 of them haha. Some notes: Remember to turn on Game Mode for PC users. This is like 80% of people's complaints, is resolved when you turn game mode on. It turns off all the samsung processing and let's your PCs GPU do it instead. Also turn on VRR for your GPU too. Also check to see if you have 4:4:4 on the Chroma Sampling in the GPU menu as well. And tune the settings on Microsoft ClearType. Those settings, specifically Game Mode and Intelligent Signal Plus which are on the Samsung TV Menu, will fix 99% of people's complaints with using this as a monitor. Oh yeah sometimes this TV can have Judder or like sections of the screen can twitch and shake which is annoying. I haven't seen it after turning on Intelligent Signal Plus but before that the way to get around it is in WIndows Display Settings just change the refresh rate from 60Hz to 59.99994 Hz and it should go away. This TV can do 8K at 60Hz or 4K at 120 Hz. I use it with a PC and my PS5 which also has VRR and ALLM for this display which is pretty great, along with 120Hz support. But yeah just turn on Game Mode and Intelligent Signal Plus on whatever you're running and you should be good to go! I haven't used it with a Blu Ray player so I can't tell you if you can keep the default non Game Mode settings on those.

    Ordered this TV as a present to myself due to me surviving a recent health scare, and I'M SO GLAD I DID. It was on sale for a really low price for an 8k set so I got it.. And I'm a Samsung fan. I will say that the cable or satellite provider makes a BIG difference. I had Spectrum and some of the channels looked like you were right there on the set or location of the movie or show you're watching on this television. I was in the process of switching to Direct TV when I bought it, and I guess due to being satellite the channels are not as vivid as cable. As for the TV and my PS5 it's UNREAL. Very vivid colors and brightness watching movies which is good for my 93 year old mother, and when hooked up to a sound bar it's like you're in a theater with clear and crisp sound. Even when I turn the sound up for music channels there's no rattle of distortion of sound. This TV is phenomenal and it replaces my ten year old Samsung set that STILL WORKS FINE. If you catch this TV on sale get it! You won't be sorry. Best Buy service was clear and precise, delivered on time and when they said it would.

    Great for use an 8K PC monitor for productivity

    Bought this to use as an 8k PC monitor for productivity, which gives the equivalent screen real estate as 4 27" 4K monitors (and actually is good value when looked at in that context). As noted by others, the dithering effect in Windows that some have complained about at 8K goes away if you set the TV to game mode and turn on G-Sync (or VRR equivalent) in the graphics driver settings, so you end up with a bright, clean, and razor sharp image. Image is gorgeous with some blooming in certain high contrast content but overall is not too bad. For gaming it supports 4K 120Hz which also looks fantastic. Not as good as OLED but still great in its own right, with the one advantage of brighter HDR highlights which you really notice. Biggest downside (and why I'm deducting one star) is the not so great viewing angles. Basically anything closer than 3 feet viewing distance and you'll see a noticable shift (looks like a slight white haze) in the image that can be bothersome, especially vertically. At 3 feet the shift is slight but still there, and at 4 feet (which is what I would game at) it's a non-issue. I try to work mainly at 3 feet but I notice the shift when naturally leaning in to get a closer look at some content. Overall would recommend if your primary use is productivity and you are worried about OLED burn-in, which would have been a risk in my case since I have many windows statically pinned for hours on end for work. And the epic desktop real estate and text sharpness cannot be beat, even by OLED.

    About a month in and it's been awesome as my main monitor. Tons of screen space for productivity, watching software tutorials and having the program open right next to it, viewing 8k youtube content was mind blowing and reviewing my own footage shot at 8k is awesome as well. Had headaches the first few days from sitting too close, but after moving my sitting position back about 10 inches has made it much more comfortable. Keys to getting this work for me was getting it into "game mode" for 8k 60fps at 200%, and then downloading PowerToys and using FancyZones. The OneConnect box is much bigger but slimmer than the Frame TV I'm using in the living room, the interface isn't as laggy as the Frame tho. Thanks to those who couldn't get it to work and their 1 star reviews, got the price of this to come down so much! I might get a 2nd one since no one seem to be making 8k TVs at 55 inches anymore.
