Q: What is the width between legs of this tv

A: Hi Kay, The Samsung - 70" Class 6 Series LED 4K UHD Smart Tizen TV stand width is 49.7 in. Hope this helps! ^Scott

Q: No one on phone or in store knew the answer. What is the main difference between the TU6980 (Sku 6428508) and NU6900 (Sku 6395915)? I understand they are both 6 series and one has a "crystal" processer. Which is better & Why?

A: Hi there! The NU6900 is a carryover 6 Series holiday model from 2018. The TU6980 is a 6 Series holiday model for 2020. The TU6980 features Samsung's Crystal Display for brilliant colors and exceptionally crisp, vivid images. Its Crystal 4K Processor further brings impressive clarity to all your content while upscaling everything you watch to stunning 4K definition, no matter the source. The TU6980 is Bluetooth enabled, whereas the NU6900 is not Bluetooth enabled. ^Gina

Q: It says in the specs the legs are adjustable. Is this truly the case or are they stationery and cannot be adjusted to a smaller size?

A: Hi, Can you please share the TV Stand width. Was thinking to buy TV and TV Table but not sure the width. Thanks

Q: The description says that you can't screen mirror to this tv. On the other hand a rep has said that you can cast your android phones screen onto the tv using an app. Can you 100% cast your android phones screen onto the TV using the app?

A: My Hubby has a Samsung Galaxy S8 and he screen mirrored to this TV. That is the first thing he was super excited about. For Apple phones there is a IOS App. I have an Apple but I haven't tried it on the TV yet. I have a Plus screen on my phone. It's not necessary for me personally to use the feature. Hope this somewhat helps

Q: Does the TV have an HDMI-Arc port for connecting a soundbar? Or would I have to use an optical cable?

A: I just bought one a week ago. i hooked up my stereo through the ARC which is HDMI 1. It also has a eARC capable. In fact when hooking up the ARC, make sure you do not select eARC from the Sound setup unless you do have eARC sound device. I had not notice the "e" in eARC and took me a while to trouble shoot as i was not getting any sound at first :-)

Q: i just got this TV how do i get the 3 months free of apple tv

A: I had to download the app onto the tv and create an account. Make sure to deactivate prior to the free trial ending if you don’t want to keep it

Q: Is this model great for gaming on the X Box Series X? I'm really looking forward to playing on this set!

A: Hello ReggieD1993, In order for you to utilize the full features of the Xbox Series X, it is recommended to have a HDMI 2.1 compatible TV. Please check out the Q70T model for HDMI 2.1 compatibility. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/samsung-65-class-q70t-series-led-4k-uhd-smart-tizen-tv/6402399.p?skuId=6402399 ^Cristian
