Samsung - 75" Class (74.5" Diag.) - LED - 2160p - Smart - 4K Ultra HD TV

We purchased this TV (Samsung UN75JU6500FXZA) on November 10, 2015 as a Christmas gift... And a 2 year extended warranty... Decided to open it up early on December 23, 2015 for my grandfather while he was out of town until Christmas day, setting it up, using it's own stand... Powered it on, appeared to work fine, then realized that we also bought a wall mount for it when we purchased it... Installed the wall mount, mounted the TV, turned it on, and was surprised by cracks behind the display...! Then, the display went black...Really...?!?! What happened? TV was mounted by 3 men with no problem... It looked as if someone threw a baseball at it... Contacted Best Buy (Geek Squad) and Samsung, and was told by BOTH that this type of damage ("physical" ) was NOT covered under warranty... I don't understand how something could just appear cracked on it's own and be told that it's not covered... So basically, without using the "actual" terms they were all saying that WE broke the screen and nobody is going to replace or repair the TV... THIS IS TOTALLY UNFAIR... Nobody should EVER have to spend more than $3,000 on an obvious faulty product and be told by all those involved (manufacturer & seller) that they are not going to stand by their product... That's just bad business... I was however referred by Samsung to have the TV repaired at their authorized TV repair company Precision Television in Concord, California as an "Out-Of-Warranty Repair" for $2,500...! Wow...! So now, my grandfather's brand new 75" TV just went from over $3,000 to $5,500, with not even an hour worth of usage... No new TV for grandpa... We've previously bought 6 TVs from Sony & LG with no problems at all, but this time, we thought we'd give Samsung a try... Boy was we wrong... Not only are we going to go BACK to LG, we are also going post this review on multiple consumer sites like Yelp, etc... I hope that this experience can be a good warning for all those who will lend an ear to listen... If you want to feel comfortable about your Samsung TV purchase, STAY AWAY... They just may leave you hanging out to dry...

Purchased it a month ago and love the TV, with one exception plus a couple of 'wish it had' items. First, it has flawless, perfectly saturated colors and crisp images. Many displays in market look good, but this one had true bright whites and excellent contrast, which makes images jump out at you. Particularly important given programming now seems to show many images against white backgrounds. It also has a 'sports' button feature that makes everything brighter, significantly bumps up colors and creates true stadium surround sound - - nice option if you feel regular sports broadcasts are often a bit bland. Picture wise, there's no difference between this TV and higher priced models with one caveat: The 120 speed sometimes leaves trails on a moving ball. We watch a lot of sports and have noticed this incidence only handful of times and never consistently. I emphasize that it rarely happens, and we've never seen it with action movies or other fast moving images. To us this is not a big compromise given all other attributes. But if you have zero tolerance and an occasional streak will ruin your day... To date, we've also had little luck locating 4K material that plays properly...but I guess it's coming... Finally, the remote control unit is a bit outdated given new units with actual qwerty keys on board.

My decision was between this Samsung or the Sony of the same size (XBR75X940D). After a month of research, comparing price (the Samsung is $1700 less), ratings (the Samsung (4.8) is a bump above the Sony (4.7)), the pros and cons (the Samsung has more pros and fewer cons than the Sony) and the extras that both TVs provided (they both are LEDs, have 2160p, 4K Ultra HD and Smart Wireless capabilities. The Samsung doesn't have 3D capability, but I could care less. 3D is a fad and wearing glasses to watch tv is asinine). Onto the goods. :) Bought this just before the Superbowl and everyone loved it! My parents could see everything from 15 feet away and no one had to crane their necks to catch a view. I don't know how we watched tv before 4K. The image makes you feel like you are in the movie. Watch movies on Epix (watched Creed and I felt like I was watching a live boxing match), Blu-Ray and Netflix (watch Frontier!) and the experience on all three are outstanding! This isn't a tv. It's a window that makes you feel like the movie is taking place outside on your front lawn! The colors are the truest I have ever seen. Now when I watch a movie at a PDX theater I feel cheated because it doesn't have the depth and dimensions this tv has. The wireless access is fast! I've watched YouTube videos and they load faster than they do on my MacBook. However, I've tried to stream shows from ABCs website and the results are heinous. Don't even bother. I haven't had time to play any games yet, but Uncharted 4 on my old 50" 7 Series Samsung was amazing so the graphics will probably melt my face off on this tv. Don't ask me about the speakers. I have a Bose sound bar for that. This tv is a beast so have a friend (or two) to help you set it up. I bought the CorLiving TV stand (Model: TAL-694-T) to accomodate the weight and width of this monster and the holes in the stand help hide all the wires for everything plugged into it. Buy this tv! You won't regret a moment of it!

Purchased a Sharp 70 inch Aquos to replace a Samsung 61 inch DLP. An hour after the Sharp was installed I realized that I made a huge mistake not sticking with Samsung. I returned to BestBuy the next day and paid the additional $1200 + $100 for the difference in the warranty and arranged delivery ASAP. The Samsung arrived and I immediately saw the difference in picture quality. The picture is great for action movies and I am a huge sports fan and have not noticed any lag or motion blur. I have DirecTV which does not have much 4K content but if you venture on to YouTube you will find plenty of 4K quality videos which will make you very excited about what you have to look forward to with this Great TV! I started to purchase a Bose soundbar but after spending the additional money on the TV, I purchased a less expensive JBL SB400 which is a perfect companion for the sound which you expect when experiencing this TV. The BestBuy free installation for the 4K was professional and looks great!

It's been approx 1 month since I purchased this TV. The initial problem I had with the TV came with trying to find a setting that didn't cause a motion blur and/or soap opera effect. I went back to Best Buy after a couple of days after purchase to get assistance with finding a setting that worked 95% of the time i.e., provides a good picture regardless of whether I'm watching regular TV, blu-ray, roku, or chromecast. We were told to try the sports setting and/or talk to geek squad. My husband and I went over to the geek squad and the recommendation was to do a replace/exchange. We exchanged the TV and the problem still occurred. I tried the sports setting and it was just as bad. In the end, I ended up using the "Natural" color and modifying the sharpness (increased it to 65) in addition to a few other tweaks. So, it's about 90% OK for most viewing. Occasionally, I will get a soap opera effect with a blur however it seems more to do with the source of the broadcast (analog vs digital, etc). I did consider getting it calibrated however I read many negative reviews that it wasn't worth the money. People still had a bad picture. I do not know what the 4K is like since I have yet to watch anything with that filmed in 4K. I guess I need to search Netflix for a show that I haven't seen yet.

Delivered on Dec 19. Replaced an earlier top of the line 2007 50 inch Panasonic plasma. Difference is night and day. The picture rocks. I will say with 1080 p broadcast content, if you get close up, the plasma still appears slightly more clear but I have not tweaked anything yet. From a few feet back, the improvement is night and day in favor of the New Samsung. The picture is so clear and the depth is so significant that it's almost like watching 3 D. Everything jumps out at you. Sound is really good without an extra sound system but I added Sonos anyway. My room is around 15 by 15 attached to the kitchen with a high peaked ceiling. Viewing is around 12 feet from the screen. The set only sound was still excellent. Controls are intuitive and a million times better that the old Panasonic. Saw some slight ghosting on hockey but as mentioned have not tweaked anything yet and doesn't really annoy me anyway. There was a minor difference between the Sonos sound and the action on the TV and this has a really simple tool to fix that. Encountered none of the issues that the other poster mentioned around drop downs and this set has none of the issues around smart functionality and internet connectivity and upgrade feedback loop mentioned by posters on some of the other less expensive Samsung models. Can't wait to watch some 4 k content.

Our 6 yr old Samsung 63" plasma died like many other Samsung owners': screen went black and TV emitted an annoying, constant clicking sound. Coincidentally, the same thing happened to my brother-in-law's Samsung about a month before. Been wanting a larger TV (at the time, 63" was largest available for purchase), so not terribly disappointed. I considered 2 logical options: Samsung 75" 4K or Samsung 75" 1080p. I continue to think Samsung has the best picture of all the larger TVs (esp. compared to Sharp, which incidentally is getting out of the business) so key criterion was Samsung. Also wanted larger than what I had so looked at 75" and 90". 90" was $15-20K: too much for a TV. Unfortunately, I thought the 4K meant 4 thousand lines of resolution, not 4 thousand dollars! Despite being double the price of the 1080p, I reasoned the $4K 4K was worth it because it will hopefully last a while and programming (esp NFL games) will be in 4K soon enough. The 1080p would be already outdated from inception. Sort of like buying an older model iPhone - need the latest features if you're gonna keep it a while. Hope this helps!

We were looking for something larger than our 6 year old 73" Mitsu DLP HDTV -- the new Sony 79" 4K model was beautiful but was $6,995; Samsung's 75" gave up no picture quality, a bit of size but was $3,995. Professional reviews were strong and we have no interest in 3D -- we looked at both the HD and this UHD version -- and, despite the virtual lack of UHD programming in June 2015, we know it is coming. This seemed the obvious choice, even though it was only 2" bigger than the outgoing Mitsu. The picture, once calibrated, is fantastic. It can be watched in a brightly lit room, if you want, too. Current BluRay discs and Amazon 1080P movies and shows pop right off the screen. There were no better looking TV's on the BestBuy showroom floor -- but there were more expensive ones. It needs to be calibrated, is the only thing you should know, other than that small item, you will love watching this Samsung UHD TV.
