Samsung UE43KS7500 Curved SUHD HDR 1,000 4K Ultra HD Quantum Dot Smart TV £699 @ John Lewis

1st Jan 2016

Stunning TV no doubt, my only worry is that paying £700 for a TV I would want at least 10 years use.... however most users on TV forums suggest changing every 5 years.... and I still think 4K content is so slow in coming out, that media creators need to get with it....before it becomes another 3d fad!

remember that!

Wow awesome but 43"

4K a fad?...

X)

1st Jan 2016

Quantum Dot is a failed solution to OLED in my opinion lol

1st Jan 2016

Great tv for the price. May not be much 4k content but this tv upscales normal 1080p to near 4k res.

1st Jan 2016

If only it was the 49 inch...

4k is nothing like 3D that was a preference this is going to be the standard it is not like they are still pumping out 1080p sets.

Went for it. Thanks OP.

Sony and Samsung have never had it, The technology was made by LG and only used by themselves and Panasonic.

I have read on display specification.com website that this has 60hz panel as compared to 49inch one
If true then it's better buying the bigger one

Unless anyone knows otherwise

Trusted reviews also state there is clouding and banding on this, … Trusted reviews also state there is clouding and banding on this, something not mentioned on the larger panels, It may be a different panel than the larger sizes.

I was wondering about the same thing
If that's the case then may be buy 49inch

1st Jan 2016

It's excellent price and voted hot but I may get 49 inch one just to be sure about panel and refresh rate

Sony are looking to produce a couple new OLED TVs in 2017 whilst sourcing the panels from LG.

I personally don't see the hype around OLED as the top spec LCDs are still really good

1st Jan 2016

Can you substantiate the panel and refresh issues? I may cancel!

1st Jan 2016

From what I have gathered so far panel is 8+2 bit and refresh rate is 60hz
The rest of the sizes across ks series including ks7500 ks7000, ks8000 all are 10bit with 120jz panel
I need to cancel the order as well

1st Jan 2016

Bring back 46, 47" tv's!

43 is a tad small, and 49 a tad big for my bedroom!

1st Jan 2016

Just to add my thoughts, I have this TV and its very good, It is believed to have a true 10 bit panel like the rest of the KS range as is certified by the premium alliance and that the displaypanel info site is wrong. I can't comment on the Hz but depending on what you are using the TV for it may not be a big issue with content being output at a lower Hz and the extra Hz are being used for motionflow

Agree in same situation I wish there was 46 or 47

I suspected it wouldn't be true 10Bit, but couldn't find anything online.

It's a shame really that they used different panel and lower hz for this tv though it's same series
It's not clear about the panel but I m sure that refresh rate is 60 only

1st Jan 2016

Good deal.

I own a rather aged Sony XEL-1. If my memory serves me correctly, it was the first every OLED TV put into production...

All 4k tvs upscale 1080p to 4k! Otherwise you'd have a little picture in the middle of the screen with black all around...

2nd Jan 2017

I have the 49" version of this TV and think it's great. Use it for films and PS4 pro. I would like to think i know what a good performing television should look like so would recommend this.

it's SUHD TV which all offer Samsung HDR1000 as they call it. that's 1000 Nits brightness from a 10 bit panel. best technology you'll get in a screen this small. So if you don't want a 49 inch screen this is the best you'll get. £100 cheaper than black Friday, heat added.

Hi all.

I can't make my mind up, this tv, or Samsung UE40KU6100 40" for £399 or LG 43UH603V 43" for £399. I would go for this but is it worth paying £300 more than the other two?

P.S anyone own any of these can tell do these go in standby mode when hdmi devices are switched off and back on when they power up? Or do you have to use the tv remote?

Thanks

Still got my 60 Inc LG plasma. Still get good comments about it.

qled i believe

Personally I see no benefit in a curved screen this size. It's got to be at least 55" to fully appreciate the sense of depth and immersion you get with a curved screen. Viewing angles are reduced and to get the best experience you need to be sitting in a fairly straight on position. You can't hang them on the wall easily and any light reflections are emphasised. Go straight people.....get the KS7000 in 49" for £749 if space is limited.

They are completely different levels of TV's. I had a ku6400 (40 inch) but is an 8 bit panel the the upscaling of HD content was disappointing and was terrible for sport.

I picked up this tv as 43 is the biggest I wanted in the living room, it has a 10 bit panel (as confirmed by richer sounds this morning) and the picture and upscaling are incredible. My advice is to go to John Lewis or currys and have a look to compare the picture and see what you prefer.

Thanks for that, like you I also can't go above 43" for now, and am leaning towards this, but shame these didn't drop a little more in price.
