Godt spørgsmål.........

Har lige opdateret mit the frame 75" 2020 med håb om Google Assistent mulighed, men nej. Må fortsat slås med Bixby.

Of course no, there is no any info what firmware "improved"!?

There is also on forum group about major issue which we are facing kind of frame drop especially during some sport content with any settings of picture clarity, so we really hope that this long waited firmware will fix, but just another disappointment.

When does the update usually go live for the TV automatically, is it long after its been out on the website for download to usb ?

I tested all issues I have with my Q80T on this firmware but non was resolved so looks like some ghost update.

And for that, we have waited for 3 months! So depressing, that you don't see any progress for 3 months!

@Cal It can take a bit of time for updates to appear over the air in some instances, USB download is often the first port of call.

I do not have a change log at the moment but am hopeful I will find out soon via German community.

Just watched a YouTube video of someone from America who reported that the update 1462.1 fixed the scan line issue for them, after updating to 1497.0 here I can confirm I still have the scan line issue ...

Looking how shitty the 2021 models are I won't expect fix anytime soon from Samsung. Don't know why they want to spoil still good brand name.

Wouldn't mind if they just admitted they know there's an issue with the TV and scan lines but it's the fact they just say it's a problem with the console..

Clearly isn't when some users don't have the problem and it's happening on other consoles like the Xbox and playstation 4.

Cal, they also can't blame consoles because I tried VRR on my monitor and it works absolutely fine. Looks absolutely dier on my q90t to the point where if the tv didn't have or advertise the feature I'd be happier with the tv.

@PawelMerlin The Us site lists the same generic description for all firmware, they do not list specific information.

I have a change log from the German community, though not much detailed information in this one.

Update version 1497.0 - March 2021

A bug in ambient mode has been fixed.
Adjustments to the EU energy regulations in 2021 have been made.

Short YouTube Video here for Q95T after change , one comment was that local dimming better and game mode improved.

Sony i Samsung chyba jasno przyznały, że aktualizacja ps5 rozwiąże problem na tv Samsung. Co ma do tego, że twój monitor działa dobrze? No chyba nic twój monitor to nie TV Samsung.

all these guys are obssesed with " gaming , gaming and gaming " and they complain about bugs in the " game mode " so Samsung has listend and they finnaly f***d up the multimedia experience as i'm using my q95t as pc monitor the standard and dynamic mode are now corrupted , no more pure white colors and no more punchier colors and even sharpness is reduced so the blooming effect can't be so clear , the q95t is becoming a cheap chinese made panel , thanks to you gamers , these are my observations after the 1490 firmware update for the q95t in dynamic and standard mode :
1 the local dimming is reduced because the pure white color was soften too little less white tint than before maybe a pinch to gray
2 the level of sharpness was reduced , it's a little bit blurry
3 the color volume is modified i think
my conclusion YES the bloaming effect is reduced but with sacrificing the pure white color of the pixels

SaMoNe1986 — Wed, 17 Mar 2021 18:57:45 GMT

in this 1490 fw update and as a pc monitor , there is noise in picture quality and the display is a bit darker than before like the FW has decreased the brightness of the tv and did the same with the sharpness so the blooming will be less noticeable than before but now the colors are nomore vivid or punchier like the old FW , so SAMSUNG PLEASE make our q95t brighters and more vivid and crisp as it was in the first launch of this good tv

Re: firmware updaye ver 1497.0

SaMoNe1986 — Thu, 18 Mar 2021 13:14:51 GMT

with the 1497 fw update the q95t looks " Fuzzy " , and this effect was reported by other people , even with brightness at 48 and sharpness at 16 in standard and dynamic modes , browsing the web , watching fullhd or 4k content via pc hardware with asus strix 2080 ti looks " Fuzzy " , like Samsung did put some layer or filter which makes the screen not clear , less bright and fuzzy , did you recognize the same effect after this update
