4K TV for PS4 Pro?

[cr!spy]

Any recommendations on which new tv I should get? Would ideally like to stay with Samsung and have a max budget of about £800. Done a quick forum search and the latest post to ask this question was recommended the KS7000, but doesn't look too easy to get them now.

Is the mu6000 series any good.. can get the mu6100 for £520?

Dropping below £1,000 and 49 inches, choices are limited for a decent HDR experience. The likes of the Samsung MU6400 is simply mediocre when displaying HDR due to the lack of proper dimming, while the Panasonic EX700 lacks a high enough peak brightness to give specular highlights the impact they need. Edge-lit dimming and a wider colour gamut still provides a reasonable experience, but it's still a massive step down from the UHD Premium sets that dominate above the £1000 mark. However, in terms of 4K gaming in standard dynamic range, both these displays offer excellent performance for the price.

So basically no one is using a 4k tv under £1000 because the hdr is not up to it? I'm pretty sure you could still get a decent experience for under £1000, it's still going to be a massive improvement over my 5 year old 1080p tv.

I have a curved ks7500. 43”. And it’s the best tv I’ve ever purchased. Amazing set.

That was last year. So I assume it’s succesor is out or about to come out.

Edit. Cost me 800 ish. Perhaps even less. I think it may have even been in the mid 700’s

Last years KS7000 was really good, 1000 nits of peak brightness.

But like you say, very hard to find now.

Can't you push to £849 and get a 49" MU7000? Or wait until Black Friday?

Edit - It doesn't have a 10bit panel, would avoid myself.

I got a 55 inch Ks8000 last year for my Ps4 Pro. Very happy with it. Can get them anymore tho.

I know you said you would prefer to stay with Samsung, but Sony Bravia is also worth a look. I have last years model an XD80 and the picture quality, screen response times are very good. The peek brightness for HDR might not be as high as it should but the quality for a mid-range TV is still very good for the price range.

It's looking like I'll have to wait till black Friday then...

I have the Samsung KU6400 and it works well with my Xbox One S. Think I payed about £430.
