S95b automatic update to firmware 1420 - Page 2

Kunal3 · ‎04-01-2023

I'm sure alot of people have been having the same issue. The automatic updates option was switched off.

I was on firmware 1310 when I purchased the tv. It had automatically changed to 1420 today.

I've noticed a change in the colour scheme and the "pop" on certain highlights on 1310 have disappeared. Also the "3D" look on the screen isnt there anymore.

I've also noticed motion issues in certain scenes ...almost like a juddering.

I was watching Venom and the scene where the red and blue lights from the police car reflect on Michelle William's face looks almost as though a red line was smeared across the screen and the processing was all wrong...this did not occur on the 1310 firmware.

I think it is trying to become similar to the sony a95k with the picture being more accurate but I actually did like the bright highlights on the Samsung.

I'm not sure why they are hesitant to return firmware to 1310 though they do have the capability to do so.

If they wish to compete with accuracy of the Sony then that is fine but change it on the other modes eg filmmaker.

I'm sure samsung have upset alot of people with these changes and I feel like it's not the same tv I bought.

It is such a shame... 😞

Anyone else with similar issues?

Whether your tv's present firmware will allow a downgrade.....well let's see.

Because this is what Samsung does! You pay for the ***** product, then they converti it to a worst product so that you buy the next year TV? It's a scam! That's why I NEVER connected my TV to Internet. I just use nVidia Shield. But now shomehow they use the ***** SmartThings from my S22 Ultra and they try to make me to connect to my TV. They really want to find a way to "upgrade" it!
