UA50HU7000
Seems like a cheap way for those wanting to get into the 4K TV game. Cheapest for this model I could find online.
100 Hz
"i work in browngoods" this thing looks like 50hz its jumpy as hell and flicker alot, really suggest against it, go a ua48h6300 or if you must the discontinued ua48hu8500
This is the sign that 50"+ 4k tv made by big brands will be less than $1k next year.
I want a 576i TV so that I can watch The Simpsons on Channel 11 in best possible quality.
I don't see a point of 4k TV if we don't even do prime channels on FHD.
I see what you mean, but I'm more concerned about the Blu-Rays/Games not being in 4K.
I've got a 55" Samsung 4K…the upscaling is sensational!
For blu-rays and games only, right?
Wonder if it can do 100hz at 4k res?
Does anyone know when we will get prime channels in FHD?
I would think it would be based on when it can be compressed to FTA bandwidth requirements?
They became HD on October 1, 2001. I used to watch Becker on Ten and Enterprise on Nine in HD back in 2002. Incredible picture. Channel 7 never offered full HD, though.
Whoops, I mean January 1, 2001 :) The only way to watch HD in the early days was with a CRT TV. Plasmas were all limited to 480p resolution only. The first HD TV in Australia was the Sony 86cm WEGA which came out in late 2001. I still own mine - it can display up to 720p (though not at full resolution). Alternatively, you could get a PCI card and watch on a computer monitor, but HD cards were very rare.
Yeah they have FHD when first came out.
I hope they have speeded up the smart features I have a samsung smart tv and its painfully slow to use.
Thats why last year they introduced Dual Core CPU TVs. much quicker
I have a quad core CPU in my F8500.. it's still slow at times though. Although the only smart feature I use of the TV is Netflix.
You can get a very powerful Google TV box for about $120.
Then you can upgrade that anytime it gets dated.
You can do 4K@60Hz with this and GTX 980, over HDMI 2.0.
so should that make it useable as a computer screen ?
"…the GTX 980 from nVidia can still only net you a 4:2:0 signal into Samsung's H6950 TVs even though those cards have true HDMI 2.0 ports capable of 4:4:4 chroma signaling @ 60 Hz. This is why nearly every review of the Samsung H6950 series is negative when coming from somebody using it as a computer display."
I found the answer I was looking for:
If you are intending to get a 4K TV to use as a computer monitor, be aware that you will most likely need to wait until they start putting DisplayPort 1.2 connections onto their sets as that is the only way to guarantee a proper connection and color reproduction.
Anyway, bottom line is this: If you need motion smoothing for only 24 FPS (Blu-Ray) and 30 FPS (DVD/OTA Broadcast), or 60 FPS Interlaced (DTV) material, a 120 Hz TV will suffice. If you intend to use 60 FPS (progressive scan) material with motion smoothing, you will need a 240 Hz TV to avoid de-sync issues. For PAL regions, substitute 100 Hz/200 Hz TVs for the 120 Hz and 240 Hz specified for NTSC respectively.
Looks like they bumped the price up to $1399 now.
