Smart TV with Multiple Software Bugs
on July 8, 2016
Posted by: HTPCuser
Video freezes about every 3 hours when watching Amazon Prime - google "Amazon Prime freezes on Samsung TV" for details. I have a wired internet connection. No similar problems on Netflix or TED.
Picture was washed out and drab. Setting Picture Mode to Dynamic results in nice picture.
Factory setting for contrast is 100%. Reducing the value results in drab picture.
With my PC connected via HDMI, the picture had black bars on all sides and a distorted image with fuzzy text (Videos are recorded and played with Windows Media Center). Same setup worked perfectly on an older Samsung TV for over 3 years. Discovered that changing the Screen Refresh Rate on my PC from the default of 60 to 59 (or any other value) "fixed" the problem. Seems like a Samsung bug to me, but not to Samsung Support.
Dealing with Samsung Support is an unpleasant experience. The support personnel have poor English language skills.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Image on this 4k tv must be seen better than on normal led 1080 tv even when broadcast is not in 4k yet?

Text is slightly crisper, if there is a difference in the video images, it is very hard to see.

There is a small amount of 4k video on YouTube that you may view with the browser.
