Samsung UE49KU6400 vs UE50MU6172: Comparing Matrix, Refresh Rate, Tizen 3.0, and Alternatives

suprajs 11313 17
Best answers

Is the Samsung UE50MU6172 a better choice than the UE49KU6400 in terms of panel type and refresh rate, and what are good alternatives in the same price range?

The UE49KU6400 is generally the better choice, while the cheaper MU61xx/MU6172 series is a step down because the 49" KU6400 used a VA (SVA) panel and the MU61 series can return to weaker PLS panels; both models are 50 Hz. [#16564791] [#16546869] If you want noticeably better motion handling, look for 100 Hz sets instead of these Samsung 50 Hz models. [#16546869] Suggested alternatives in the same budget were Philips 49PUS6561 (100 Hz), TCL 50S7906 (100 Hz), TCL 50S7806 (100 Hz), TCL 49C70, Thomson 49UC64, TCL 49P60, and Philips 49PUS7101.

    Hello,
    Samsung has prepared for this year model series MU UE50MU6172 (50 "), which is priced in the same range as the previous very good model UE49KU6400.The newer version differs primarily from the predecessor by remote control, voice control (currently only English) and newer system Tizen (3.0). But the most important question for me is the matrix and refreshing or is the new model (one of the cheapest in this series) better or similar to the older one? Are there any significant differences between the two models? There is some alternative in the range of 49- 50 "for those TVs for the price of 3k?

    Thank you for replying,
    greetings

    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

    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.

    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?

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


    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?

    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?

    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?

    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?

    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.

    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.

Topic summary

✨ The discussion compares the Samsung UE49KU6400 and UE50MU6172 models, focusing on matrix types, refresh rates, and the Tizen 3.0 operating system. The UE49KU6400 is noted for its superior sVA matrix, while the newer UE50MU6172 is said to utilize a weaker PLS matrix. Users express concerns about the refresh rates, with both models operating at 50 Hz. Alternatives in the 49-50 inch range include TCL and Philips models, which offer better refresh rates (100 Hz) and competitive pricing. The conversation also touches on contrast measurements, with the KU6400 having a higher ANSI contrast ratio compared to some TCL models. Users seek clarity on matrix types and measurement methodologies, indicating a preference for VA matrices for better performance.
