Do you think they will fix the content smoothing?

I need to know about the 55”. I know a lot of others are in the same boat.

I hope all is well with you too! Unless you know what you’re doing and have the tools to properly calibrate a TV, we don’t recommend just winging it. You can always try our white balance values and if you’re not happy with the image, you can just reset them. You can also get a TV with good pre-calibration accuracy and just leave it as is if you aren’t able to hire a professional to calibrate it for you. Unless you have the tools to test color accuracy, your only real option for determining the accuracy of a TV is with an eye test. Some people can tell if a TV is inaccurate just by looking at the image, but most people aren’t able to see inaccuracies unless colors are very off. The U7N is relatively easy to calibrate, but you need the tools and/or knowledge to be able to do that properly. Unfortunately, there’s no easy solution for fixing a TV’s accuracy without proper calibration. Thanks for reaching out!

Hm. So, is this tv not worth getting if someone isnt going to get it professionally calibrated?

And where is the line when looking at the pre-calibrated score?

It doesn’t make the VRR feature useless, but it does limit its effectiveness. With games that target 60fps on consoles, there aren’t any issues with VRR. With 120fps, it really depends on the game. Most single players games on consoles that target 120fps are essentially just unlocking the frame rate, so you get big fluctuations in frame rates. If the frame rate is regularly going above and dipping below 100fps, you get the distracting response time behavior on the U7N. On the other hand, PVP games that target 120fps are typically staying close to that, so it’s more common for the frame rate to stay between 110-120fps. PC gaming is a bit different since the user can target a specific frame rate depending on their setup. You could get more frame rate fluctuations if the PC can’t handle a steady frame rate, but you could also have very little changes in frame rate if the PC is powerful enough to sustain a frame rate above 100fps. Thanks, and I hope that helps!

Makes sense. Thank you.

Oh, ya..Also, with the VRR going haywhire when a game runs below and above 100hz, and console games normally moving around that point..Would it render the VRR basically useless?

Hi. I hope all is well. Thank you for what you do.

It is stated that “the TV’s pre-calibration SDR accuracy is unremarkable, so you’ll need to get the TV calibrated if you care about accuracy in SDR.” In your page for information about color accuracy and calibration, you speak about how you want to find something with good out of the box accuracy as calibration can be expensive. I realize that professional calibration is for people that want complete accuracy. However, you don’t want your tv to be too far off. In your recommended settings for this tv, it shows that you cant follow your white balance color settings, cause each tv is different. So, what do you do? Just wing it? How do you know when a tv comes too far off out of the box to be able to correct simply on your own in the settings? Is this tv in the spectrum of being able to easily correct it yourself? Thanks for your help.
