Yes, I believe it is the new vesa x mount standard. I tried to use older mount and the tilt was obstructed by the mount bars. Overkill for tv, but I wanted good movement. A shallow mount with brackets is probably best option if movement is not needed. Yes, I wall mounted on a mount previously used on a 60 inches Sharp tv. Yes, it does. Yes it can.
Yes it can be wall mounted. I don't think there is an alternate remote from Samsung. I wasn't a big fan of the remote but I've figured out how to use it still not great but serviceable. I was in the same situation. The does have a better picture and deeper colors. I kept the and sent back the I really appreciate Crutchfield and their Advisors. They helped me a lot. Samsung is top notch. Very happy with the purchase! I can only say, you won't regret the It's the finest picture you can find for the money.

SpeakerCompare tailors your listening experience to the exact headphones you have, so that what you hear is comparable to auditioning speakers side-by-side in person.
Two different listening modes. In an actual listening room, you'd find that some speakers play louder than others when fed the same amount of power. In equal power mode, you'll hear these differences in loudness as they naturally occur between speakers. In equal volume mode, we've made the loudness of each speaker about the same. This gives you a more direct comparison of subtle voicing differences between speakers.
Nothing beats listening to speakers in your space. SpeakerCompare gives you a sense of the sonic differences. But performance in the real world is affected by the acoustics of your car or home, your choice of amplification, and your source material. We're here to help.

Picture Quality Black Levels and Contrast Ratios Overall the Samsung KS delivered an extremely impressive picture but lets break it down into the important elements, starting with the black levels, contrast ratios and dynamic range.
Naturally if you turn on the Smart LED local dimming to its low setting that immediately falls to 0. Samsung say that this was necessary to deliver the increased brightness needed for HDR at 1, nits but it might also be to accommodate the incredibly thin chassis.
Whatever the reason, Samsung have certainly done an excellent job of distributing that light behind the panel. The KS had a very uniform backlight and largely managed to avoid the bright edges or corners and light pooling that often plagues edge-lit LED TVs.
In general, despite the location of the LEDs, we were rarely if ever aware of the columns of light from which similar TVs from LG and Sony have suffered. We also didn't notice any banding on horizontal pans across football pitches or any dirty screen effect either. We should point out that tested a brand new sealed unit, so there was no question of Samsung cherry-picking the review sample for the best backlight performance. Although backlight uniformity of edge-lit TVs is often something of a lottery, we do feel that our review sample should be representative of what you can expect when you buy one from a store.
Just how noticeable the location of the LEDs will be, largely depends on the viewing environment, the content you're watching and how bright you have the backlight set. Obviously the brighter the backlight, the more likely you are to see bright edges due to the physical location of the LEDs but with Full HD content, using a calibrated night time setting and some bias lighting in the room, we rarely experienced any such issues.
If you're going to see the LEDs at all, it is most likely with dark scenes with letterboxed films and especially when watching HDR content, where the backlight and contrast are at their maximum settings but even in a completely darkened room it was rarely an issue. Local Dimming and Viewing Angles One of the main reasons the KS managed to keep any backlight issues to a minimum is thanks to its highly effective local dimming system.
This has been an area where Samsung have excelled over the last few years and the local dimming on the KS was just as impressive. We used the Low setting for the majority of our viewing and overall the local dimming enhanced our viewing experience, ensuring that blacks appeared suitably dark and that the backlight was nice and even.
There were almost no halos obvious in the Low setting, no doubt thanks to the excellent native black levels, and aside from some minor crush in dark shadows, which has never been a strong point for LCD panels, the image delivered a suitably dynamic experience. Thanks to improvements in Samsung's Quantum Dot technology, the viewing angles of the KS were certainly better than previous generations.
Last year's models had a decidedly narrow viewing angle, which was fine if you watched TV sat central to the screen. However as soon as you started to move off-axis the colour accuracy and contrast performance word begin to deteriorate. This year the optimal viewing angles are wider, although given that the KS uses a VA panel, it will always struggle to retain image accuracy once you move outside a 90 degree arc.
In fact it was mainly when viewing off-axis that issues such as halos and bright edges became more visible, although they were rarely apparent when viewing from the centre. Motion Handling We already mentioned the greyscale and colour accuracy when it comes to Rec. There was none of the stuttering or frame dropping that we have seen on Samsung TVs in the past and the KS handled all of our motion tests very well.
We measured the motion resolution round with Auto Motion Plus off and the full lines with it on, which is what we'd expect. However using the Auto Motion Plus features does introduce smoothing that can rob images of their film-like quality, so we generally left it off.
Although for sport-based content, which is shot on video, there is certainly room to experiment and choose a setting that suits you. Samsung also include a custom setting, where you can experiment further with blur and judder reduction. Its is here that you'll find the LED Clear Motion feature that uses black frame insertion and although it reduces the brightness and can cause flicker with some people, it can give images a better sense of motion.
Standard and High Definition When it came to watching standard definition content the KS did an excellent job of deinterlacing and upscaling the image. No doubt thanks to the accurate greyscale and colour space, the results were quite watchable despite the obvious drop in resolution. We watched both Gotham and Agents of Shield in standard definition and we found that the KS was capable of delivering a very watchable picture.
Once we moved to Full HD things picked up a gear and shows such as Indian Summers and Daredevil looked fantastic on the Samsung, with the accuracy, local dimming and video processing all combining to deliver lovely images. Naturally once we moved to Blu-ray we saw another pick-up in performance with our usual test discs all looking wonderful on the KS As we have mentioned the local dimming did an excellent job of delivering great blacks and dynamic range, without introducing halos or overtly crushing shadow detail.
Gravity looked marvellous and despite the frequent sight of bright objects against black backgrounds, the LEDs were hardly ever visible unless we plunged the room into total darkness and even then they weren't that obvious. Thanks to a winning combination of factors, whether you're watching standard or high definition content, the KS was capable of delivering a great looking picture.
We have already discussed our approach to testing HDR at length but test patterns and graphs can only tell you so much and ultimately you need to actually watch some content to fully appreciate the experience. Until now we have found this difficult due to the limited amount of content available but with Amazon already offering series in HDR, Netflix to follow suit and Ultra HD Blu-ray about to launch, all that has changed.
We have seen a number of HDR demos before but actually being able to sit down and watch an entire film was a revelation. Films such as Mad Max: Fury Road just burst into life with the image revealing a fantastic dynamic range from the darkest scenes to the brightest.
There was greater detail in the darker parts of the image, which was especially apparent during the early scenes where Max is running around in a series of caves and tunnels.
It was also this scene that revealed the limitations of using edge-lit technology, and we did see some bright edges here as a result. However the way that sunlight streamed down in the scene and interacted with the darkness of the tunnels was impressive and the KS managed to retain detail at both ends of the dynamic range.
Once we moved to one of the chase scenes, the KS really began to strut its stuff, with vibrant images of scorched desert landscapes and plenty of detail retained in the sky. The flames, explosions and lightning all had a reality to them that was missing from the normal Blu-ray and the HDR experience was certainly preferable.
We also watched the film Wild , a simple tale of a woman walking up the west coast of America in an effort to rediscover herself. This film is free of effects and action, instead relying on natural lighting and beautiful scenery, all of which the HDR helped to make more realistic.
The wide open vistas looked wonderful, whilst the sun appeared more like it would in real life and the way it reflected off water and snow gave the scenes far greater impact than they did on normal Blu-ray.
The use of bit video depth also helped, with lovely gradations in colour and no banding appearing in uniform areas of colour or dissolves. In general the colours appeared more realistic and certainly more vibrant on the HDR discs, which makes sense as they use a wider colour space.
When comparing other UHD discs against the Blu-ray version the differences in colours were more subtle but with The Martian it was quite pronounced. We've never been to Mars, so it's hard to say which was representative of the filmmaker's intentions but we found ourselves preferring the look of the Blu-ray.
Having said that, the colours in Wild appeared very natural and realistic and since we do know what fields and trees are supposed to look like, perhaps that was more representative of the KS's colour performance in Ultra HD. Sound Quality When you consider that the speakers for the KS are housed in a chassis that is only 2cm deep, it is amazing that the TV sounds as good as it does.
Firmware errors and main board failures are not covered by Samsung warranty policy. By upgrading your TV firmware version, you will benefit from improved image quality, fixed various noise issues, enhanced Internet connectivity if available , boosted stability and usability level, as well as from several other changes.
However, you should first check that this release is compatible with your TV model and that it specifically resolves a problem that you have been encountering or makes changes that you deem useful.
In addition to that, since there are numerous TV models and manufacturers, as well as several methods for updating the software version, we recommend that you refer to the product guide, familiarize yourself with the procedure, and initiate the upgrade only when you have completely understood the steps.
Bear in mind that, in the event of an update failure encountered by trying to apply an improper firmware or if you don't successfully succeed to install the new software, the TV can suffer serious malfunctions.
