What 75 inch TV would you recommend to buy with good brightness contrast for around £800? Love your videos

Nice, na B8 series sam iz 2022, sve manje-više isto... Zanima me preko čega igraš ovaj fliper, tv boxa? Thanks

[@TVguyDarko]

Hvala Endi! Fliper je preko PS5, Pinball FX.

Wow, thanks so much! Happy to be of help.

Hi Darko, I would like to ask you something, I got brand new 85 inch of the series, I can see in completely dark environment some cloudy patches around the corners, and is quite a lot sometimes, as far as I know is backlight bleed but is it repairable or is it eligible for return? Thank you in advance.

[@TVguyDarko]

Hi! Generally if the backlighr bleed you find distracting, check options to get a replacement TV, especially if you still have an option to return it. In Croatia we have the option to return the item in the store, usually 15 days since the purchase. Just be aware that this condition varies from unit to unit and you might get even a worse uniformity on the next one. Also, if your model has local dimming in Picture settings, enable it or set it to high to reduce the clouding effect.

Hi can you recommend settings for the 2023 line up especially the qn90c with va panel

[@TVguyDarko]

Hi - if I manage to test one I'll publish settings, but I think that I'll only get 2024 models from this point onwards. Have you applied tips from this video?

[@marsos-cw4dj]

May i ask a question and if somebody know please tell me, If we in streaming platfrorm like youtube,netflix,etc we can't change the tv picture size setting ?

[@youngangelito22]

Do you sell hdr game setting calibration specifically for Xbox series x? If so can you link so I may buy

[@TVguyDarko]

Hi - I have gaming HDR settings which are fully applicable to Xbox as well. You can find them for your model here: payhip.com/tvcalibrationwithdarko/collection/samsung-tvs

[@youngangelito22]

@@TVguyDarko I purchased yesterday looks amazing thank you 🙏🏼 but do you know how to enable 4:4:4 chroma I did it once by switching my Xbox series x to pc output but then I switched it back and haven’t been able to get it to go back since it was hdr + I even did a full reset and still can’t get it to go back

[@javierblasco3968]

Hello, Darko. I'm from Spain. I have a Samsung TU50CU7105. Can you tell me the best settings? Thanks.

[@TVguyDarko]

Hello Javier! You can use the same settings as presented in this video.

[@dpsonne]

Just got the DU7175 (TU55DU7175UXXC). I guess it´s just the 2024 model ("D") in the 7100 series. So would you use the same adjustments for this? Thanks very much!

[@TVguyDarko]

Yes, I expect DU series to perform the same as the CU series, so you can use the settings from this video. Anyway, I'll probably but DU8000 or DU7000 during Autumn to confirm this.

[@dpsonne]

Sounds Great - thanks for the answer!

[@toonh4337]

Hey Drako Been watching your reviews a lot! I would like your opinion (or one of the viewers) 🙃. TCL 55C745 or Hisense 55U79KQ. Its mainly to watch Netflix (no gaming). Both are the same price atm on sale. Hope you can help because im a little lost. Thanks a lot! Keep it up!

[@toonh4337]

+ is it worth going for 65 inch or is 55 inch the sweet spot?

[@TVguyDarko]

Hi! Definitely I recommend TCL 55C745 mainly because it has more stable picture controls and has quite good local dimming. If you want mini LED model, then check TCL C805.

Mine works I turned my xbox series x on first when I set tv up an game mode was highlighted

[@MunKeeButt67]

I've had a 7 series and 2 8 series au and cu, and the 7 series has better black levels than the 8. I've noticed HDR does not show on film maker mode only. Does this mean HDR is not supported in this mode only, as it's what I have my Blu-ray player set to. Also there is a lot of white bleed in the top blackbar in letterbox on wide-screen content, so I keep my settings on standard with 20 brightness 45 contrast 30 colour, warm 1 🙃

[@dustyfarm5r577]

How do u turn 4k on of on the samsung cu8000 4k uhd

[@TVguyDarko]

Your TV automatically upscales all content to its native 4K resolution - sure, for the best image quality, you need to playback 4K content, but even Full HD will look really good.

[@VitusStensgaard-su1wt]

How do i enable 4k

[@TVguyDarko]

Your TV automatically upscales all content to the panel's native resolution. Therefore, to get the best resolution, play native UHD 4K content via streaming apps or Ultra HD Blu-ray discs.

[@finn_germee]

this is bullshit

What exactly? What is the issue?
