Q: Is it True this tv has no audio output , so you can not hook up a sound bar

A: This tv does have a audio output! So yes you can hook up a sound bar. On bestbuys website it says that it does not, and so did the Best Buy employee, but if you look on samsungs website it says that it does. We were skeptical when buying it because of this, but when we got it home it had one!

Q: I have this tv for less than a week and it has a big issue. The screen goes black for 1 second rendomly no matter what source i use: antenna, hdmi from my macbook, screen mirroring ... Anyone experienced this issue ? I have reset the tv twice already .

A: Just picked up this TV today, and having the same issue. Turned off all the eco settings, which didn't fix the random screen blink. Have now also turned off the 'auto motion plus' [under settings, picture, expert settings] setting which has eliminated the problem for over an hour now. Will update if problem pops up again.

Q: I just got this TV and installed it. Every app (Netflix, HBOGo, MLB) works except for YouTube. When I click on the YouTube app, it is nothing but a black screen. Anyone else have this problem and know how to solve it? Thanks.

A: I'm the same person who asked the question. I ended up doing a live chat with Samsung directly and they remotely accessed my TV and the country code was incorrect. They set it to USA and now everything is fine. Thanks to all who answered.

Q: It appears that the motion rate says 120 but the real motion rate is 60 why the BS. It is the same with all the manufactures why dont they all give us the real motion rate

A: Motion rate 120 is a 60hz refresh rate. the way samsungs motion rate works is that it has a processer that can add a black frame in between every frame shown on the tv.

Q: The general description of the product does not say that it has HDR, but when you click on the "DEMO" link, under the "At A Glance" as well as the "Docs" tab, the specifications do state that this model (UN55KU6290) has HDR. So, does it have HDR?

A: Well it is a bit complicated :) It actually does have HDR according to Samsung, but than again it doesn't. Bare with me here...so this is an 8bit panel and as such it just cant reproduce full range of HDR colors--real HDR planes are 10bit. Samsung has their own technology that boost colors little bit on this model, but it's but a gimmick compared to the real HDR. Than again, this is a great all around TV with more than decent color reproduction and picture looks almost perfect for everyday viewing. If you are after HDR on a budget this is what you get, if the budget is not a problem look at higher end Samsungs with 10bit planes.

Q: What is the screen refresh rate (not to be confused with Clear Motion Rate) for this TV (Model: UN55KU6290FXZA)? 60 Hz or 120 Hz? Thanks!

A: This set has a native refresh rate of 60hz. Don't let anyone tell you different. The 120 "Motion Rate" is just a little interpolation trickery that all manufactures are using to confuse buyers. Look up some good professional reviews and you see the truth about many 120, 240, etc "rates."

Q: What year is this model?

A: The first letter of the item number tells the year K-2016 J-2015
