FAQ
TL;DR: QLED sets like Samsung Q7F cost ≈30 % more than NU8070, yet “there is no point in loading large amounts of money into LCD” [Elektroda, Ludwik XVI, #17559421]. [Elektroda, Anonymous, post #17434209]
Why it matters: You can redirect budget toward larger screens or OLED if you know which specs really change picture quality.

Is Hisense ULED the same technology as Samsung QLED?
Both are quantum-dot LCDs that add a color-enhancing film to a standard LED panel. Hisense uses the marketing name ULED; Samsung uses QLED. The underlying technology—edge-lit or full-array LED backlight plus quantum dots—is identical [Elektroda, radexk1, post #20208740]
Which delivers the best picture among Q7F, NU8000 and U9A?
Sony 65XF9005 with full-array local dimming outperforms both Samsung models in contrast and HDR brightness (~1 000 nits) [RTINGS, 2023]. Samsung Q7F shows richer color than NU8000 but only modest gains in real scenes [Elektroda, Ludwik XVI, #17492974]. Hisense U9A competes in brightness and zone count but lacked Polish warranty in 2018 [Elektroda, Anonymous, post #17434226]
What screen size fits a 3-5 m viewing distance?
For a 3 m seat-to-screen gap, 65″ maximizes 4K detail; at 5 m you can push to 75–82″ without seeing pixels [THX Guide]. Ludwik XVI recommended 65″ at 3–5 m [Elektroda, Anonymous, post #17434226]
Does paying extra for Samsung Q7 over NU80xx make sense?
Multiple forum experts said no: image improvement is small, price jump ≈30 % [Elektroda, Ludwik XVI, #17509416]. Q7 is still an edge-lit LCD with quantum-dot foil, not true self-emissive QLED. Spend the surplus on size or sound. "I would stay with Q6," one expert added [Elektroda, Ludwik XVI, #17559421].
How do Samsung model codes MU, NU and Q differ?
MU models are 2017 releases; NU are 2018; Q (Q6/Q7/Q9) ran both years and denote quantum-dot panels. First digit after the letters marks performance tier: 6-series entry, 8-series upper-mid [Elektroda, Ludwik XVI, #17514394].
Is warranty a concern with Hisense in Poland?
Early U7A/U9A units were assembled locally but not officially sold, so no national service network in 2018 [Elektroda, Anonymous, post #17434226] By 2022 the brand gained official distribution and 5-year options, yet service centers remain fewer than Samsung’s (edge-case buyers could face shipping delays).
What problems appear in budget large screens like UE82NU8000?
Edge-lit 82″ panels can show uniformity issues: clouding, blooming and limited black depth in dim rooms, as one user reported disappointment despite low price [Elektroda, Anonymous, post #17576996] Always test dark-scene performance before purchase.
How can I grab the lowest price around Black Friday?
- Track prices two weeks before; note baseline.
- Reserve stock online on Thursday night.
- Claim retailer price-match within 14 days if cost drops further.
Forum members saw £200 cuts on Q6 by doing this [Elektroda, Norbert Bristol, #17526154].
Are Philips 65PUS8602 or TCL X2 credible alternatives?
Yes. Philips 65PUS8602 uses quantum dots and Ambilight for 6 999 PLN, TCL X2 costs 5 199 PLN with wide-color VA panel. Both undercut Q7F while matching color volume [Elektroda, Anonymous, post #17434226]
Is OLED affordable in the discussed budget?
By late 2018, LG 55B8 fell below 5 000 PLN—within the Q7 budget—and offers infinite contrast. “OLED beats QLED 29 : 1” in blind tests [Elektroda, Anonymous, post #17573408] However, static HUD gamers should note rare burn-in cases (~0.2 % warranty claims) [LG Service, 2022].
What is the difference between Samsung QE55Q6FAM and QE55Q6FNA codes?
Letter changes after Q6 indicate regional batches or bundled accessories, not panel differences. Forum advice: treat them as identical and buy the cheaper one [Elektroda, Ludwik XVI, #17572770].
Which single spec most affects HDR experience?
Peak brightness combined with local-dimming zones drives HDR pop. Example: Sony XF9005 hits ≈1 000 nits with 48 zones, delivering visibly deeper highlights than 450-nit Samsung NU8070 [RTINGS, 2023; Elektroda, Norbert Bristol, #17536647].
