Would the Samsung UE50RU7400 be a good tv to get? Had a look on rtings.com hut doesn’t seem to come up

the Q6 is essentially the NU8000 but more expensive. for £1K though the XF90 if still available would have been a lot better due to FALD vs edge lit.

£900 on richer sounds and John Lewis. Hoping this TV is still around for another 6 months so I can get one.

just have to ready to pounce when jl/rs make the 55xf90 <£800, which given the q6 at £660 and 55lg oleds at sub £1000, would be its right price...
I guess the 2018 uk models have a limited supply now and prices are sustained by the new models themselves being impacted by negative exchange rates.

Do you have a link for the Q6 at that price, it’s ok no longer available
