Vertical Banding is this bad?

Just got a nice TV after my other broke after a year. It's the Samsung 48H6200. I see vertical banding and I want to know if you think I should just deal with it or send it back. I can notice it sometimes when I play games and on panning shots.

It's not the best photo. Found it difficult capturing one on my phone camera. Do you think it's bad

Only had it for a day but noticed on panning shots. Girlfriend thought I was over reacting but I can see.

I get that is quite a low end TV but I still think it's unacceptable to sell TV's like this but hey.. QC sucks because most people wouldn't pick up on these problems. I'm going to give it 2 weeks and if it still annoys me its going back and exchanging for same model as I really like it.

If it annoys you now then you are still going to notice it in two weeks. I would send it back.

My partner thinks I'm over reacting so I told her if it still annoys me then I will take it back. But she drives so yeh haha

If it bothers you then return it, I hate buying new LCD TV's because its so difficult to get one without flaws.

Yes!

When my Sony died I was gutted because I knew I was going to have to go through the pain of finding a TV that wasn't flawed. Even my Sony was slightly flawed but not as bad as this.

Love the TV though so hopefully, they aren't all this bad
