Im at fault for initially ignoring these emails.
Then, I began to respond, even though my answers might have been brief.
I hope they helped someone.
Samsung CU7000
However, many of my articles were written thanks to exciting ideas from these emails.
One of the latest was: Hello, Anatoly.
I recently moved to a new house and have always dreamed of a big TV for a great experience.
What do you think about a 70-inch TV?
Is it worth buying?
Or should I choose a 65-inch one?
Samsung CU7000
And recommend a model.
Well, lets figure it out.
A large TV will be a poor choice if the room is small.
Samsung Q60C
You will sit too close, making it hard for your eyes to focus on the whole picture.
So be prepared for your eyes to tire; you wont enjoy it, even with a 70-inch TV.
Second, always consider your budget.
LG UQ75
The peculiarity of TVs is that the larger the diagonal, the steeper the price increase.
Third, you better consider the actual size of the TV.
If we talk about 65-inch TVs, they are very, VERY popular.
Insignia F30
Almost every model has a 65-inch option.
But this isnt the case with 70-inch TVs.
Usually, after 65 inches, it jumps directly to 75 or 77 inches.
you’re free to still find TVs with a 70-inch display, usually budget or mid-range.
Or the 70-inch Samsung CU7000 with a Crystal UHD display.
you’re free to also find some models from LG, Insignia, or Hisense.
So there isnt much to choose from.
But okay, lets add some numbers and pictures to make it more visual.
70-inch TV dimensions
For TVs, the dimensions are characterized by height, width, and thickness.
The viewing distance
Another thing to take into account is the viewing distance from the TV.
The Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers recommends a distance with a viewing angle of approximately 30 degrees.
Do you need a precisely 70-inch TV?
This is the central question from which one should start when deciding.
When we talk about a 70-inch TV, do we mean precisely 70 inches?
Or are we talking about 70+ inches?
So, choosing an exactly 70-inch TV limits you to the mid-range and budget segment.
Do you see what I mean?
By choosing such a TV, be prepared for it to be a relatively mediocre model.
So what, do you need a 70-inch TV?
Of course, I dont know your budget.
However, if youre looking for a more expensive TV, you cannot buy a 70-inch model.
Its an entry-level model, so dont expect features like local dimming or high brightness.
The color gamut also leaves something to be desired, although its sufficient for a model of this class.
The refresh rate is 60 Hz, and theres no VRR, which is bad for gaming.
But again, for its price.
If youre choosing a budget model, the CU7000 could be a decent choice.
It also lacks local dimming features.
Overall, its also a decent mid-range model.
LG UQ75
Im currently testing this TV.
Other issues, like the low contrast or the limited color gamut, are inexplicable.
This is my opinion so that I wouldnt recommend this LED TV.
It isnt awe-inspiring, especially when compared to Samsung.
Remember that Samsung and LG do not update their OS to new versions after new models are released.
This 2022 model is still good.
For about $450, its one of the best models you might buy overall.
