Samsung QN75Q70R 75" QLED 4K UHD Smart TV with Bixby Intelligent Voice Assistant

I've been looking and researching for a new tv for years but once i read the specs on this new Qled and read that it had free sync I made the leap and I couldn't be happier. The picture and refresh rate are amazing the tv automatically synced up to all my devices and the soundbar. the settings and menus were very user friendly. In all seriousness I feel like I did when I made the leap from standard to 1080 years ago. With the 4K details i can see the smallest details that I never noticed on the same games I've been playing in 1080 for years. The only thing I would change is the remote randomly picking up my voice while I'm talking to someone online during a game and it will screw me up by changing the input or opening Netflix or something else like go to a settings page but since there is no way to turn off the bixby or better only have it listen when i push the mic button I've just duct taped the mic on the remote and that has seemed to fix the issues.

After unboxing the Samsung Q70 75” the first thing you will notice is how BIG this QLED TV is. This is not a lightweight TV, so you will need two people to get it set up and running. To start off I needed to put the support legs on. They seem to just pop in and stay in place. Easy to remove for wall bracket hanging. After getting it up on the credenza, all I had to do is plug it and follow the on screen and voice directions. The built in wireless networking was a breeze to get online and download any updates. The remote reminds me of the fruity company’s “TV” remote. Very “modern” with limited buttons and a round dial. Nine buttons not including the Netflix, Amazon and Hulu buttons. No key pad #”s. We use TiVo so we will be mainly using the TiVo remote. You will need the Samsung remote for many of the built in features and settings. There is no paper manual, you will find an e-manual in the settings. You can go to the website and download a digital manual if you prefer. Digging into the e-manual (clearly explained descriptions is actually very well done. Home button brings you to settings, connections, streaming channels, downloaded programs and apps of your choice, press again and it is gone. If will appear when- ever you turn the TV on (there is a setting to turn this feature off). Back button seems to be everywhere these days, very important (you will wear this button out!!). To get to initial settings that you missed in set-up or postponed go to the System icon-general-System manager here you can set the time, activate a screen saver. The External device manager, has Game mode and Eco mode. Smart features has auto on/off, smart hub and last app. Enough playing with the features for now. Now let’s watch some shows.
Turning on the Big Fella. WOW the picture explodes onto the screen, practically instant on and big. The built in sound is actually pretty good. But with this baby you are going to want a sound bar, right away. Have not timed the Atmos yet (but I will). The picture is spectacular watching in HD. The blacks are definitely darker and the colors vibrant without any adjustments, (many built in picture settings to choose from). With wireless hook up my children were in the internet in no time (they do not need a manual). There are 4 HDMI hookups in the back. Also the power plug actually melds into the back of the set without adding depth to the TV (will sit flush to the wall.). I have even seen a special Samsung bracket for the set. You get a full picture to view with a tiny Bezel around the screen. Another cool feature is the ambient screen. Not only does the TV adapt to the room lighting it also allows you to personalize your screen. You have the ability to have photos, live information or you can download a picture of your wall and have the TV blend into the wall as if it was invisible. Samsung put a lot of thought into the QLED Smart TV. I will be discovering more features in the weeks ahead, but for the most part I will be re-watching Game of Thrones before the new season starts. Tyrion looks a lot taller on this 75” screen.
