Hello all! I'm kc44135, and I'm new here (this is my first thread in fact). I have been doing a LOT of research into TV's, and come to the conclusion that Samsung is the best for for a gaming oriented set. No need to worry about burn-in like OLEDs, and much better and more advanced gaming features than Sony, like Freesync, and low input latency Motion interpolation. Which brings me to my question of which Samsung TV to get.
So, the Q70R is unquestionably better from all the research I have done, but the question is how much better? I have found a Nu8000 at Sam's Club for $549, which seems like a good deal, and is less than the half the price of the Q70R. How much of a hit to picture quality would that be, considering it isn't QLED and the local dimming supposedly isn't very good? It still has everything I want otherwise.
Also, a matter of some concern is some kind of "auto-dimming" bug. Supposedly, it happens in a variety of content, and makes the screen dim when there are a mix of bright and dark elements are on-screen, such as subtitles appearing during a dark scene, which then makes it dim. From what I understand, this is something specific to the Nu8000 because of it's poor local dimming. some have suggested to me to avoid the TV outright because of this issue. Anybody ever notice this or have any issues with it?
