These are 50 Hz models.

And a very large competitor are:
- Philips 49PUS6561 with ambilight for 2950 PLN - 100Hz
- TCL 50S7906 for 2250 from - 100Hz
- 50S7806 for PLN 2499 - PLN 100

50 Hz models
- TCL 49C70 - for PLN 2799 with a remote control for free voice service.

The KU6400 series is in my opinion better than this year's MU6100.
49KU6400 was on sVA, in the MU61 series Samsung slowly returns to weaker PLS matrixes. I do not know how it will be in full size, but you have to watch out for the MU61xx series.

The 2017 series MU64xx also does not look rosy:
40 inches VA
49 inches PLS
55 inches PLS
65 inches VA

All TCLa modules are on VA matrices with the highest contrast on the market!

Ludwik XVI · Answer

This sentence is not true and introduces misleading readers. Native contrast in TCL models (P60 or C70 - available in Poland) is not the highest. The TCL P60 has an ANSI 3500: 1 contrast. The Samsung KU 6400 has an ANSI 4500: 1 contrast. ANSI measurement methodology: ANSI Contrast - this is a contrast measured using a chessboard made of 16 white and black rectangles. Field brightness is measured simultaneously, then the average brightness of the white fields is divided by the average brightness of the black boxes.

Ludwik XVI · Answer

I do not see the method of measuring the contrast in this test - he writes in quotes because the lack of methodology means that it is not a test, but a sensation of use. It's a bit useless. Please write what the contrast measurement methodology was. I see in the comments that many people ask about it but the author of the test does not want to answer - disqualification for me. Is this contrast a typical / assorted ANSI measurement?

The methodology is the only one designated by the world's only manufacturer of Calman 5 equipment. On this basis all testers in the world are based:

Undermining this is like undermining the Copernican theory, but what will always be someone who knows better.

Ludwik XVI · Answer

I think we've agreed before that we're serious. I am not asking you what equipment was used for measurement, only what test methodology was used. So I'll cut it down and ask again: Is the native contrast in the 55C70 model measured on the ANSI board?

Anonymous · Answer

According to the most important methodology given!

Ludwik XVI · Answer

Give this methodology. The word most important does not tell me anything. Was this the ANSI board? (I wrote to you above what this methodology looks like) I also know different ones, that's why I ask you (did your tester) used / used?

Answer the question straight. It will be easier. Unless you can not?

Ludwik XVI · Answer

Buddy, this is the instructions for using the device. It can be measured in many ways. I will ask you once again: Was the native contrast in the 55C70 model measured on the ANSI board?

Anonymous · Answer

It is measured exactly as given by the producer on the film !!!

Ludwik XVI · Answer

The manufacturer does not specify on which board to measure - it's the user's choice of the device. Write what you chose - what was your choice? or a standard ANSI board that is used to measure contrast in televisions? So the question is again: Was the native contrast in the 55C70 model measured on the ANSI board?

lycone · Answer

We will probably not get any answers. In any event, everything will come out in the wash like some reliable portal will do the tests. I am waiting especially for HDTVPolska.

TVas · Answer

I am going to buy samsung 49 KU6400, but I heard that you can hit the IPS matrix (PLS) Is that true? How can you check which matrix a given copy has? Can you read which type of sensor was mounted on the TV's rating plate? I would like to add that I do not have the physical ability to watch this TV, and I would like to buy this model in a 49 inch version with a VA matrix (SVA). Please help.
