Samsung UN55KU6290 vs Sony X90J

day 2. The set up with the rinky dinky remote was tedious. Finally got it working and looked pretty good but I thought the picture looking dim sometimes.

Okay, normally the google tv home screen will be populated, but because i skipped it, then clearly it isn't even connected to the internet. Yet so wha...

Regarding the SmartTV functions, I resent requests to share my location and other personal information, and to consent to agreements that are too long and technical for anyone to actually read. I encourage everyone who has purchased this TV to change your factory default password to something more secure. Samsung could be doing more to educate consumers about security risks, and to protect our privacy.

You will get superior tone mapping. You will get deeper black levels, you will get smoother gradation. You will also get you know, sharper upscaling. ...

especially the remote control. It is not backlit, it does not fit well in my hand, impossible to use in the dark or dim light, only a sparse number of buttons, no tactical feedback sensation to differentiate one function from the other, the system menu is extremely difficult to navigate because the remote is so ackward it times out before I can select what I want to do, the volume control up/down is slow, often unresponsive, as slow to actually change the sound level, after putting the batteries in it is impossible to completely close the case, and it keeps coming open, the scroll up/down/left/right button is barely useable, too many steps to get to any function because there is not enough buttons on the remote, the Apps Bar is useless, and the web browser if the biggest joke ever. I could go on but my fingers are tired.

It takes a total of 18 (yes, EIGHTEEN) button presses on the remote to successfully make a connection, and get me back to the input I was watching. (I'm not even including the button press on my headphones). In comparison, my Blu-ray player takes exactly ONE press of a button, but I like to use my Xbox for a superior picture, as well as 4K support (Xbox lacks Bluetooth). This seems like a software fix needed on Sony's end

Netflix is slow to load. It's easy to navigate and use, just slow. Netflix has really fine tuned their UI over the last few years, across ALL platforms, and it is no different on this TV. I just wish the TV was a little faster

As the title says, I just recently bought a new Sony X90J and as I am not happy with the motion performance while gaming. Panning and moving the camera around causes stutter and blurriness that was not as noticable on my old 2009 LG Tv. Maybe imperfections are now more visible because of the better resolution as this is my first 4K tV.

After getting this TV, I found that it does not have auxiliary audio outputs. I and many of my friends have hearing problems due to old age. Many of us use auxiliary RF or IR headsets to listen to TV without disturbing others nearby. This TV does not have auxiliary audio output RCA jacks that will allow me to use headsets

I will keep the TV, but would go for cheaper model next time for my particular needs in that specific room. Unless you sit close to the screen, lots of the advantages of this screen quality get lost. Sound wise, it's actually usable after some equalizer adjustments, but here too I'm using HomePods that deliver fuller sound and don't sound like a TV speaker. (the TV allows connections to Amazon and Google wireless speakers as well)

These things are somewhat minor (depending on what you're looking for) and could be overlooked were it not for the image quality. I'm not saying that the image quality is bad, it is by no means bad. The resolution is there are colors do seem to bright and vivid. The issue comes with its claim to being HDR capable

In fact, with the previous (deemed defective model) I had tried with another soundbar and had problem, so I have asked them to re-open case. Not happy..

Now, Samsung needs to put a high quality 65" to 70" on sale so I can justify replacing my 12 year old 50" Toshiba giant clunker in the basement. Please offer free removal, because I am now too old to even help my sons carry it out.

And you have a clear winner in a bright room: i'm not sure we can assign an exact dollar amount to the brightness, because it's not really an easy thi...
