Don’t buy oled for gaming . The burn rate is higher and picture quality is not that great for games .instead buy qled type of tv .samsung model has 120 hz also I think .
Edit : if you are just looking for a 1080p tv ,buy Sony one but make sure you buy e version and not the r version .

Anyone here got the Samsung NU8000? Its price has dropped significantly and is now relatively affordable (135k).

How is it for gaming and movies?

you should make a review and cover all details about picture quality goods and bads etc as for now no one has reviewed c6 properly and on pakgamers no one has shared any pic or video of tcl c6
kindly share your experience with pictures and videos of tcl c6

Got 65NU8000 about a month back and so far I'm quite impressed with the TV. I did find HDR a bit dim initially but after changing picture settings to my liking, it's quite good now actually. Upscaling is very good. Don't see any input lag issues while gaming.
However, Recently it started making clicking sounds when I turn on the TV. Like a plastic clicking with thermal expansion. Other electronics make it too but not this much. It clicks fairly regularly for about 30 minutes, After that the volume and frequency of clicking reduces. I can only hear it when there is no audio playing. Upon doing a Google search it turns out it's a rather common problem with this TV. RTINGS review also mentions it under 'Build Quality'. For me this clicking sound is a turn off but I'll have to get used to it otherwise its a great TV for the price.

Thanks. I'll check it out in person.

Do 10bit H265 movies work well from network? How is the UI? Casting support? How's Bixby?

135k? From where?

Shophive. They've increased the price now (143k). It was 135k a couple of days ago.

I mainly use Netflix for Movies and TV but I'll download a sample and play it over Plex and let you know how it goes.
UI is pretty smooth most of the time. There aren't that many apps available on the Samsung Smart TV platform but the useful ones are there.
Casting through apps like YouTube and Netflix works, Android screen mirroring works too.
Most of the useful command are accepted by Bixby like change the channel/volume, Open a certain app and stuff like that.

I also looked for 55" variant first at different stores including Shophive. On their website it said 'Ín Stock' but they didn't have it. If you're interested in getting it from Shophive I suggest you call them first and confirm availability before placing order.

Thanks, much appreciated.

Bixby is a bit slow compared to Google Assistant on the phone. I'm curious how it performs on the TV.

Also, do you have any idea where I'd be able to find these in Pakistan?

With local warranty? 140k seems like a steal deal for it.

Asking about the 55" btw, the 65" won't fit in the TV cabinet we have.

Exactly, When I first heard NU8000 series is available now in Pakistan with 55" variant priced at 140k. I visited 4 or 5 different stores here in Lahore. No one had the 55" one in stock. They all confirmed it did sell for 140k in warranty but they were very limited in stock. One even said only 100 to 200 units came to Pakistan. 65" was available at every store though.
@ASKnASK Sorry mate, no idea about those speakers. One thing about Bixby though, TV Bixby dosen't do much like I asked to open settings and it did a web search instead. Does not have a verbal response to your commands either like Google Assistant does. Maybe Samsung hasn't enabled full Bixby functionality in our region or something.
EDIT: Played this 10 bit sample over my 2.4ghz wireless network and it buffered in between.

Hi has anyone seen Hisense 50U7A. How does its picture quality fare with TCL or Samsung.

Haven't seen it personally but did a ton of research. It is better than TCL C6, and is cheaper. It is also better because of its 120hz @ 1080p support. Great for gaming.

Buffering is understandable over wifi. As long as it is able to play the video and audio in sync, it should be fine.

The bixby part sucks. I was hoping for a decent assistant. Can it do stuff like 'Search xyz on Netflix'? Thanks in advance bdw. You've been very helpful.

I'll be buying a TV in about a couple of months for my own room. Let's hope availability is better around that time.
