had the tv for 1 year and 4 months, then the screen just went dark. i called samsung support, went through the troubleshooting process. they said i needed a service call and could do nothing more to help. got a repair company to come take a look. they said my display failed and will need a replacement. the most expensive part of a 82" tv. it is cheaper to purchase a new $3500+ tv than get the old one repaired. basically i purchased a new tv and little over 1 year it is now garbage. was hoping samsung products were better quality than that. as well was hoping for samsung to offer something to assist in repair. neither happened.
Too many issues. Subpar smart features.

we bought 2 of these tvs, so any of these issues are not an issue with a specific device. 1. if we watch tv for more than 1 hour and switch off. it will turn on automatically after a min. opened ticket with cust. service. agent agreed to send someone to look into it after spending ~2 hrs of diag but nobody contacted. 2. tv often starts glitching in many apps. this requires hard power cycle. problem is with installed on wall it is not straight-forward. remote based power cycle doesn't help. 3. after every 1 month or so tv starts behaving irregular. working with customer service also required factory reset. this is painful because then we have to re-install all apps and login etc.
Very defective tv!

We had this TV for 10 months before it developed a shadow on the right hand side of the screen. It took several phone calls, being told that my warranty had expired, sending in a copy of my proof of purchase, showing that it was less than a year old, They did eventually agree to send someone out to fix the tv. It took 3 weeks to get repaired! The repair lasted 3 months!!!! We now have a shadow up the middle of the tv but was told by the repair man if I ever happened again our best option, since this was only a one time offer, would be to just buy a whole new TV; as the part was $2500.
Very good but one thing

When consumers look for reviews, they want to know more about the products. Honest opinion about how good/bad the product is before they to commit to buy is important. It also is a good way for the manufactures to look our reviews and try correct their mistakes and to make better future products. Sometimes people simply complain about the shipment or broken item which does not really provide tangible information about the product itself. Now about this TV Q70R 82" size. I have had this TV for a few weeks. I have spent a few hours to calibrate the TV to achieve the desired results that suits my situation. This TV a mid-level from Samsung in terms of pricing, and it is a really bright TV with bright vivid colors. Samsung has always separated itself from other by providing bright colors by default, but you can adjust colors and calibrate the TV to your desired settings. The black levels are on par with what Samsung has advertised. They are not super black like Q90R but really decent enough that you can enjoy your movies or TV shows. Next to LG, the Samsung TVs have one of the most efficient and smooth operating system. Going to Netflix Amazon Prime apps take a bout 2 seconds. Navigating through apps are really buttery smooth. Shadow details are better than Q80R, but Q80R provides better black levels. Simply put the picture quality on this TV is simply fantastic. But there are some issues with motion blur and ghosting on 24fps movies. No matter how you adjust the setting for "Auto Motion Plus" , you will still have motion blur. I called Samsung Support, and they even sent the tech support team to my house and you will still have this issue. I notice this mostly on Netflix or Amazon prime videos. I do not have cable, but I do have Live TV from Youttube and I have not experienced this with any Sports. Bixby works most of the times, but you have to speak at a normal voice (not too fast), but Samsung has some work to do to make Bixby more user friendly, otherwise most people will get annoyed by it. Below are my ratings for this TV: 1. Picture Quality - Excellent/A 2. Operating System Very Good/A- 3. Black Levels - Good/B 4. Motion handling OK /C+ (not sure if Samsung can fix this with firmware update) 5. Brightness Good/B 6. Build Quality Good/B (has plastic bezels, where the Q80R and Q90R are aluminum) 7. Voice Remote OK/C+ (Bixby needs some improvements. Samsung can reach out to me on how to improve ) 8. Sound Quality Good/B 9. Overall TV performance and quality Good/B I believe overall for the price (82" model), this is a really good TV. I chose this TV over the LG 86" Nanocell (though I was very tempted to order the 86" Nanocell because of the technology such as HDMI 2.1, and the support for Dolby Vision). The TV up scales the 720p/1080p cable content as best as it can. But right out of the box, the Picture quality for the average TV consumer is really great, and that is why I recommend this TV, knowing that you might experience soap opera effects and motion blur issues with movies that are filmed at 24 fps. Note: I am a highly skilled technical expert with engineering background. I also have a Website where I review products. I am not affiliated with Samsung, nor have I received this product for a discount price. The review is solely my honest opinion, but I hope Samsung reaches out to me to review their 2020 products.
