Finally better than my old plasma

So I been with my old 2011 Samsung 7000 plasma for over 6 years now only because all of today's LED LCD TV's just did not look better than it. I believe this TV finally looks better than my old one. I did check out the OLED TV's but picture brightness just wasn't there. To be honest with you the OLED's was on par with my plasma. I mainly got this TV because of HDR, getting ready for the Xbox One X but even my current Xbox One looks better on the Q7F. I'm very happy with my purchase.

Pretty good but some issues
on April 13, 2016
Posted by: VinnieB
Verified Purchase:Yes
The set up was easy, I bought two of these but you can only set up one at a time. These work as described, somewhat.... The 2 way talk only really works good when you have your app set to "local". When you're not home and you have your app set to "remote", there's issues. I think the mic is too sensitive because when I talk to the camera from my phone, it just makes weird sounds and keeps repeating. Also, you hear a lot of background noise when viewing the camera/cameras. In advanced settings there's only two levels of gain to change the audio input (mic) and for the speaker there's 10, default is set to 7. I have Android and my girlfriend has iPhone, on Android you can have 2 way conversations. Not on Apple, when you turn the mic on from the iPhone it turns the speaker off. Android keeps the speaker and mic on. I may contact Dlink about these issues and see what they recommend.

For centuries before man, dinosaurs ruled the world. When an asteroid wiped them from existence, it seemed they would remain fossils, never to return. Until John Hammond and his scientists found a way to return the prehistoric creatures to their former glory. Unfortunately, his dream of a dinosaur-themed amusement park experienced a bit of hiccup before it could be opened to the public. Now, his vision is a reality, and you have the opportunity to travel to Isla Nublar to enjoy an adventure millions of years in the making. Featuring the full LEGO treatment, LEGO Jurassic World brings you the dinosaurs like you've always imagined.Get ready to experience the thrills, excitement and action of Jurassic Park, The Lost World: Jurassic Park, Jurassic Park III and Jurassic World in full LEGO form with LEGO Jurassic World. Re-live and experience the storylines and key moments of the four films on an all-new LEGO adventure that's 65 million years in the making. Explore the expansive — and dangerous — grounds of Isla Nublar and Isla Sorna, and choose from 20 dinosaurs, including Raptors, Triceratops, Compy and a T. Rex, to wreak havoc. Collect amber and experiment with DNA, just like John Hammond's scientists, to create your own original dinosaurs. Welcome to Jurassic Park.

Good idea but....

I like how they try to make it like a TV series, but the acting/screen play is horrible. It feels like they just took a FPS game and threw in GTA style without the open world freedom. I find myself playing an episode at a time and getting bored with it. Have yet to tried the multiplayer.

We do not have cable, only Direct TV via satellite. Is this TV the best one for our situation? Internet is through Hughesnet, also a satellite, with limited download so we cannot view Netflix, etc without spending a fortune for excess usage.

You can use this TV, the question if it's right for your situation? That's something only you can answer. I would recommend turning on Film mode in picture options due to your cable provider. Film mode will enhance low quality video.

Overall how is the motion-blur on these new QLED sets? I remember back in the day when LCD, and even the earlier LED televisions came out they all had motion blur issues, I could easily detect the "soap opera/ghosting" effect except on plasma sets.

You can fine tune the motion blur on this TV, called Motion Plus in settings. Best setting for me is Auto Motion Plus: Custom: Blur reduction 10, Judder reduction 3, Clear motion off. The higher the Judder reduction, the more soap opera effect.

I have an extremely bright family room. I looked at the Oled but they just seem darker to me even on the brightest settings. The Samsung Qled seemed much brighter. Can you compare the Oled to the qled? Is Samsung the brightest of the companies?

By far, yes. This TV is very bright. My living room is well lit and I have the back lighting set to 12 (it goes to 20). With all lights off it's a little too bright at 12. Between 7-10 is pretty good with blacked out rooms.
