Yeah 8 bit panels are not as good as 10 bit and TVs with them are not certified as ultra HD premium.
I doubt the average joe could even tell the difference. Also there is very little HDR content around

To be honest, I doubt I personally will notice a difference; I am currently still using a 10 year old Samsung Plasma!

Bought thanks :smiley: although the reading the comments now in getting buyers remorse, 8bit instead of 10bit and upscaling to HDR? Have I bought a decent bit of kit or is this not as good as it should be?

Needs to be marked hdr ultra premium I think for true hdr support. For which I think you need a 10 bit panel.

It does but it's the 7000 series that's full HDR. I was told premium tv . Also Argos website says it's a 10 bit panel and that's wrong also. Using this tv with Netflix HDR my tv is very blurry . Hope that helps

I have the 55 inch version of this and was told by Samsung tech they are not HDR. Can't understand why they can get away with it

Seems like there are a lot of good to deals at the moment! I'm holding on to my old chunky Toshiba 40 inch until I actually have devices/internet speed that will output at 4K...

Anybody know how this compares to the KU6400 49" Version. Why do they make the model numbers so complicated. I guess the 6400 is better as it is a higher (number wise) model? Does the 6400 have a 10bit panel? Thanks in advance

Think the 6400 has Bluetooth and higher pqi, there's is probably other features but I got bored researching so think I'm going for the 6400, for £569. It'll be an improvement
on my 10 yr old 32" acer no matter what

Decided to pay £590 from John Lewis; thought that their customer service and complimentary 5 year guarantee was more than worth the extra £50 it costs.
Although OOS now, it might be worth holding off until it comes back into stock, if you're like me and value it too.

8 bit colour panel at this price I assume?
Edward_Nigma to adam0812
28 Sep 16#7
I think so yes. Samsung model code is UE50KU6000KXXU and most searches show '10-bit panel support - n/a', so guess its a 8-bit panel
Vegeta to adam0812
28 Sep 16#14
Yep, it's 8-bit.

I got this TV a few months ago and paid slightly more. I'm happy with it. Now TV app should be coming later this year.
