Is there something wrong with this tv?

From the quick reviews I've found, the are a few negatives (depending on if you call them negatives):

* Viewing angles are poor. Great if sitting directly in front of the TV
* It's not any of the newer LED technologies (not QLED or OLED)


Basically, if you are going to sit in front of it directly and are going for screen size over quality, then it's a good TV. If you want quality instead, you can get a smaller TV that is either QLED or OLED for the same price.
 
Rtings reports on the NU7100U:

-Native 60hz panel
-No actual zone dimming
-300 cd/m2 peak HDR brightness
-24ms panel response time
-PWM backlight

For a 7100 series, Samsung really screwed up cause those are garbage specs. It's only redeeming quality is it's 5400:1 native contrast ratio, but without any real local dimming, it will never come close to modern FALD displays, and will be absolutely crushed by an OLED.
 
Can't really expect a large cheap TV to have all the bells and whistles the more expensive TV's do.. ;)
 
I finally got to see a TCL on demo tho its only a 400 series. It was pretty nice. I can only imagine how good the 600 series with local dimming is. Heres hoping they have a 75" ver of that next year...
 
getting a LED panel in this day and age is full of wrong. Go loom at Vizio XLED. Local dimming, reasonably priced. I got my M65-E0 last christmas and only paid $1000.

The 2018 M-Series uses last years P-Series panel. Local dimming zones, all the belles and whistles and the 75" is around 1700.

the sony model seems to be across the board a bit better the vizio plus it can do 120hz @ 1080p which is nice for some games. $500 more than the vizio tho
