Samsung - 75" Class - LED - NU7100 Series - 2160p - Smart - 4K UHD TV with HDR

My wife and I just bought this TV. We've never owned anything larger than a 50' TV. With all the argument's over refresh rates: weather to get a 60hz, 120hz, or 240hz. I started doing a ton of research. I'm a research guy. Come to find out. 1.) Refresh rate is important. 2.) Companies lie about their refresh rate - legally. How do they do it? Here's how they do it. They will say a TV is "240 HZ", but what they aren't telling you is they aren't actually putting 240 still images in front of you in one second. They are adding in a black frame very other frame. So you get a frame of what you are watching, and then a frame that's a pure black screen, and then a frame of what you are watching. This is how they can say "240 HZ". This TV's refresh rate is 120 HZ, and its perfect. No need to pay anymore for the "240 HZ" version. Come to find out, no TV has 240 HZ, they just don't go that high. Now they do make *true* 120HZ tv's. And that's definitely something to buy for so you don't get the so called "Motion blur" you've heard so many complain about. I've used this TV on my Xbox One. It looks beautiful. Absolutely stunning. My wife and I both sat there in shock when we first turned it on to set it up. We were blown away. And the sound quality from the speakers is actually I'd say 4/5. We do have a soundbar, but I haven't hooked it up yet. Also, I used to work at Best Buy. YOU DO NOT NEED TO BUY A $100.00 HDMI CABLE. It's total and utter nonsense. An HDMI cable is an HDMI cable. Do some research, everyone agree's. CNET, MyBusters, all agree, because it's digital tech, it literally either works, or it doesn't. There is no in-between, unlike analog signals. So buy a High Speed HDMI cable on amazon for $6.00, and enjoy the same amazing picture the joker next to you is watching with his $300.00 gold plated cable, and drink a nice expensive bottle of wine that you could afford because you didn't get tooled into buying a worthless cable in the sales process. Point is, do your research, know your product, and it'll save you getting squeezed in a moment of insecurity. Overall, great TV. We love it. Will update as we have this TV longer.

This tv has been nothing but a nightmare. The picture is horrible and there are lines across the screen. I have spent the last 6 months speaking to Samsung and being given the run around. They have been to my house multiple times and have replaced the entire panel. Yet the picture remains bad. I was told by the last guy that came out the tv is not repairable and Samsung needs to send me a new one. Since then I have spent hours in the phone with Samsung and have been given the run around. Every time I call I waste time in the phone explaining the problem yet again because they don’t communicate to each other internally. Despite what their own tech says they insist on making me more appointments and wasting my time. Then when they make appointments to come look at the tv yet again, the entire day is wasted waiting for their tech. Today I wasted the whole day and no one even showed up. I have spent too much time on this tv. I just want a tv that works but Samsung refuses to provide one. I wish I bought a Sony. Don’t buy this tv. Not only does it not work but Samsung customer service is terrible. Buy a Sony.

I use to be a huge Samsung fan, but ever since I upgraded from DLP to LED, they have been nothing but problems. My previous LED was amazing at first, but less than 2 years later the backlight began to die (according to the Geek Squad technical support). This resulted in a shadow border running around the edges and very apparent on the sides. Fortunately, I bought the extended warranty and they sent me a 7 Series as a replacement in the 75" model. Initially, I was blown away by the image quality... Then I watched a dark movie. You can really tell the backlight is bleeding, also known as flashlighting because of the bright areas acting like a flashlight on a dark screen. They suggest some simple fixes online, but how did Samsung let these units out of QC? Currently, I'm playing Red Dead Redemption 2 and you can see it during the menu prompts (see attached image) and during some night time sequences. I wish I could love this TV, but I am definitely a Samsung fan no more. I will likely inquire to see with Best Buy what my options are in replacing this TV. VERY disappointed.

So I just purchased this TV, while it's great for movies it is not so great for gaming. I bought it and knew it was Motion Rate 120, I didn't even think about getting the Motion Rate 240 (due to this TV being $1000 less than the 240). It's a great TV for it's price but if you are looking for a gaming TV look for a Motion Rate 240. Another thing that upset me, is I got the TV unboxed and ready to mount only to find out it needs 45mm bolts for the wall mount bracket. So if you are looking to mount the TV you will need M8 45mm bolts. No where does it state that your wall mount bracket will need 45mm bolts on the box, unless you look through the manual. I was not even given the heads up either. My existing bracket did not come with long enough bolts, so I had to make a trip to Home Depot to pick up some. Also it comes with spacers for the TV (seeing the back of the TV is curved), as you will need them when mounting it. The brightness doesn't have a wide range to adjust either. All in all it's a great TV, just needing a new set of bolts and it's not perfect for gaming is it's downfall. I will be keeping it because I don't feel like paying an extra grand for a motion rate of 240.

Yes, the picture is gorgeous and if you limit yourself to watching live-action content the Samsung UHD TVs are fine. However, if you're a fan of animations like Rick & Morty or Family Guy or The Simpsons these models are just plain awful and suffer from a phenomenon similar to the effect of persistent phosphors in old-school tube TVs. In short, black objects moving against a white background (think eyes of cartoon characters) will leave persistent and annoying motion trails -- an 'after-image' that can sometimes look like smoke trails -- and once you see it you can't "unsee" it. As an aside, the UHD TVs from Sony don't suffer from this so it is definitely a flaw in the Samsung design. The guys from Geek Squad said they'd never seen anything like this either and tried replacing both my LCD panel and my main board but it did not resolve the issue. How this flaw made it past the initial design stage is a mystery but as I said, if you're a Rick & Morty fan consider a Sony XBR. You have been warned

Absolutely terrible!!! This TV is not even 3 months old. We have intermittent, vertical green lines flashing on the screen. I called Samsung only to find out that we need a software update, which can't be done from the TV. We have to download this system update to a jump drive and install it ourselves. No jump drive? Samsung will mail one out for delivery in 5-10 business days. This system update will happen twice a year and the same process will need to be repeated. This jump drive should come with the television that we can't watch, at less than 3 months old. If I had known we would have such issues, I would've gotten another brand. Picture is mediocre at best and with the issues we are having, it was not worth even the sale price we paid. Are green lines really do to a system update? Guess we will find out after we get the system update jump drive from Samsung in 5-10 business days. I fear we will be back at square one after waiting for this update. Do yourself a favor and try LG. I wish we would have!

I ordered this tv online to be delivered to my house. Delivery took 2 days. Plugged it in and evrrything was working great-- until night time. I noticed the bottom sides, corners, and upwards on the sides of the screen were lit up. Called bestbuy customer service which directed me to samsung. They scheduled another tv to be shipped to me since it was within my 14 day warranty. They didnt deliver on said delivery date, so i called back. I was told by samsung that the employee didnt press the confirm button for the delivery. Was scheduled another delivery date in which geek squad came out, removed the tv and packaged box, and delivered new tv. This tv is great. Spent about $1400 after taxes. We upgraded with this tv because we had a 2015 Vizio 65" smart tv. Love samsung products. The only complaint is that it does disconnect to my wifi 1 out of the 20 times i turn it on. I havent hardwired my wifi cuz its in another room, but you'd think you shouldnt have to because you paid a good price for one of their newer tvs.

I like the TV, especially because it was $700 cheaper than the next level up. I'm sure there are better out there, but not at this price ($1499). I finally got the picture dialed in to how I like it. It took me several days to figure out the right settings for the best picture. I almost took it back, but then I reset to default, bumped up the color and sharpness and that was it... Close enough to perfect, so I kept it and the $700 it would have cost to get the next level up. I'll put that $700 towards my next TV when this one is obsolete in 2 years. The sound is not great, but at least I can understand people's voices without background music blowing me away during action scenes.
