Bought a New 4K TV...Samsung KU6290!

[Blu Myers]

Didn't see a dedicated thread for this model, so I created one. Yesterday I bought my first 4K TV, the Samsung KU6290. Picked it up at Best Buy on sale for $629, along with the Samsung 8500 4K UHD player.

At first I didn't like the picture settings at all, so be warned you might not be satisfied out the box. BUT...thankfully after hours of fine tuning I got the settings to my liking. I test these out on the 4K editions of Logan and Underworld Blood Wars in a lighted room in the middle of the day.

- First off, I switched my UHD player (Samsung) to HDMI 1
- Standard Mode
- Special Viewing Mode - None
- Backlight - 14
- Brightness - 55
- Contrast - 95
- Sharpness - 0
- Color - 55
- Tint - G50/R50
- Digital Clean View - Off
- Auto Motion Plus - OFF!
- HDMI UHD Color - On for HDMI 1
- Dynamic Contrast - High
- Gamma - 3
- Color Tone - Cool
- White Balance - I didn't see the need to adjust this.
