The Eyes of an Eagle
I casually viewed the 65″ model with the Samsung City buildings 4K demo. The picture quality was a new experience, different than any other flat panel.
First there was an extremely high S/N ratio from the camera source but also in not seeing the LCD pixels changing state. The first impression is more enthusiastic than the Sony’s 4K effort, due at least partially to the source material.
The level of detail breaks new ground as expected with 4K resolution. The Samsung image processing is very natural but you do see more detail than you would in real-life. It like having the eyes of an eagle. Hyper-detail? This image processing allows for viewing at a greater distance, which is the exact opposite of what experts recommend, based upon the 4K resolution smaller pixel size as compared to 2K/1080p panels.
Curiously the Samsung is still using active 3D glasses even with 4K resolution. The Sony 4K uses passive glasses and its 3D performance set a new standard according to Home Theater Magazine.
The display comes with a separate Evolution box which should allow for an upgrade to HDMI 2 when it becomes available. I’d figure about $400.
If you want the best be prepared to pay for it. The biggest regret is the lack of 75″ screen as found even in the new impressive $3K Samsung Electronics UN75F6300 75-Inch 1080p 120Hz Smart LED TV. I’d expect that shortcoming to be announced at the January 2014 CES. Just wait six months something better!
Congratulations go to Samsung’s superb engineering team for releasing such an impressive statement product.
Sensational picture especially 4k
Just bought this 🙂
Astounded by the depth and the black levels on this tv
Feeding a 4k signal from a capable graphics card and gaming or watching bluray is phenomenal.
Avatar never looked so good. Actually this size and 4k – thats what the 3d gimmick was made for. 3d will blow u away.
Onky niggky is hdmi 1.4 currentky allows only 30hz at 4k resolutions. So wikk hv to wait for the aforementiined upgrade frm samsung before one can enjiy hdmi 2.0 60 fps gaming!
I saw biugh the sony aand this samsung and you distinctky tell the samsung has a slight edge in oicture quality.
highky recommend this tv – and with samsungs promise of a upgrade to hdmi 2.0 coming soon this tv is futureproof 🙂
The Critic
A quick reply to the reviewer Tyrone Stacey. Why would you buy a 540hp Mercedes E class sedan…because you can afford it and most of all because its fun to drive. So why lend a negative review of a television if you don’t have it.
I had the pleasure of owning the Sony 65″ 4K television until this Samsung came out. The Samsung blows the Sony away. Both of these television sets have amazing resolution and very impressive up scaling capability.Blue Ray, NetFlix and HD TV look noticeably better. I had the salesman demo a Batman Blu Ray to compare 1080P to 4K and the upscaling was obvious. This is very important if you are considering a 4K TV purchase.
Where the Sony and Samsung differ the most is in color reproduction. There always seemed to be a washed look on the Sony. The Samsung is brighter the blacks are about the same. The screen on the Samsung is more forgiving in bright rooms.
I did prefer the UI on the Sony but the Samsung is by no means lacking.
