The quality and design of B&O has disappointed me so much in the recent years that, after having ONLY B&O TV and audio systems I decided for a Samsung 75" Qled. Since I did not want to also lose my beloved B&O loudspeakers also bought the Almando Multiplay Surround decoder. The Samsung replaced the Beosystem 3. It is very strange after using the same BEO4 remote for more then 20 years I suddenly have use something else.

The Samsung is in many aspects a relieve:

- The Samsung no gap wall-mount, easy installation clear instructions and extremely easy to put the TV on/in the wall mounting

- Wiring, less wires, very thin wire between screen and box

- no more setup box(s) Sat receiver (HD sat integrated) or even Apple TV necessary

- Picture quality perfect

- Alamando: plug and play easy app to precisely adjust speaker volume etc

- After connecting all wires everything just worked no need of B&O technician!

- Price app half of a B&O 65" Eclipse

I second this.

QLED is way less in quality then Oled.

Contrast of OLED way better.

Looking now at the Bild 5 with almando and beolab 18 speakers.

Seems a good combo to replace my bv7 40" tv

But like MM says 'There is a TV - and there is a BV" 😁

If the OP is happier with a big screen rather than a smaller OLED (B&O or Loewe) it is his choice.

We should applaude him for integration of his BeoLabs ! BeoNut since '75

OLED isn’t more expensive than QLED. And it doesn't have to be a Loewe OR a B&O, to be an OLED

At that size (and at this time) it is: An LG OLED 77" (77G7P) is about USD10000.  A Samsung 75" QLED (QN75Q9F) is about USD7000.  And last year's model (QN75Q7F) is about USD3300!

Part of the difference is current popularity, leading to limited availability of the 77" OLED, and discounting of the Samsung.  The reasons why are outlined above... but at that price differential, I might "make the sacrifice" too.

Or you could say: There is expensive, and there is overpriced! 😎

Surely, though how many products come an open invitation to joining the beta software club? Important now there are so few dealers and technicians and you will avoid customer service. Complain straight at the engineers who designed it. Perhaps posting that on B&Os Facebook page would help enrollment at BeoWorld too?

Hello Guys, thanks for your comments😁

Of course I know the difference between QLED and OLED, checked out the LG range aswell. But personally I find the OLED colours to bright. As long term B&O fan (still have a BV10 and BV 7-55, and all other goodies) it was with pain in my hart to make the switch. But after my last B&O purchases (Moment and Beosound1) and having only software issues I have given up. If B&O would have build a nice state of the art Beosystem 5 I would definitely have bought it. Anyhow I now have a TV which works and I can still listen to my beautiful speakers!
