I am thinking about a Samsung TV now

[Deleted member 2457]

Nugget is happy with his Samsung and 4K HDR and when I saw the Samsung is 9000 I was really impressed. I tried to cancel my order of the Samsung K8500 blu Ray player from Sevenoaks but couldn't as it was too late so it has just been delivered, didn't hear the door bell go so they just left it by the door! I have seen the Samsung Ks7000 too at John Lewis and will demo again and go with the Samsung TV and 4K blu Ray player.

Which Samsung would you go for? 49-inches, 55-inches or 65-inches? And which model?

If you can afford it gel go for the 65" KS9000, it would be my choice and comes with seperate tuner.

Review of the KS7500 here.

... or in gel's case, as long as he can afford the return postage!

can't you wait 1-2 months for the ks9500? it will offer blacks closer to that of OLED with a full array local dimming set. and even higher peak brightness (1200 compared to 1000 i believe i have read)

the ks9000 also looks to be a very nice tv also. can't go wrong with either!

if i remember correctly the 65 inch js9500 was £5000 on release, which many complained to be absurdly expensive. 2016 tvs are a lot cheaper this year so i would guess £3500-4000

You do not remember correctly, nugget2014. The Samsung 65JS9500 cost six thousand on release!

oh my God! I forgot about that £6000 price. Just being reading the 65ks9000 review on AV though and was pretty impressed with that.

 

[nugget2014]

samsung can't get away with that price anymore. same price as the g6 oled..maybe they knew they could milk the prices last year as oled's from lg weren't as good as this years.

 

[bigboss]

Samsung will never admit that its TVs are in any way inferior to LG, and will definitely pitch its flagship against LG's, especially considering they have no plans to make OLED TVs yet. So I would expect the launch price to be £6000.

£2899 for the 65" 9000, £3799 for the 65" 9500 (rrp).

Cheers David. That's a good price! Any ideas when it will be released? The flagship that is? Do you think it will get 10 out of 10 for black level too?

No idea how it'll fair in reviews until it appears.

would be a good idea to try the 9500. you can always return it *pardon*

 

[Deleted member 2457]

Would the calibrated settings be the same on the 8000 as the 9000 one? Ta.

 

[nugget2014]

No.

 

[Deleted member 2457]

No.

Cheers!
