I hope you guys understand what i mean we made a rod for our own backs. depends your budget! LG OLDED are much higher than QLED Samsung.   LG OLED can be bought almost same price as Samsung QLED..for example 55" B7 OLED is almost same as 55" Q7. ... View more

@andreascy wrote: Guys   This is shame! The issue is coming from wrong design and is not electronic fault in my honest opinion. This hapens to all latest Samsung models q6 , 7, 9. I also found forum topics in USA regarding this issue which means is general issue for samsung tvs and not for secific regional models. In my case the issue start after 5-10minutes I turned on the TV and plastic/metal parts start heating.  My TV retailer suggest me a third tv replacement and in house insection with samsung technician or pay the difference for better model in that case q7 or switch to LG OLD with 900 euro extra.  I will give a try for 3rd TV replace first. Again this is unaceptable situation for a prenium TVs!  Samsung knows about this and they issue official statement regarding this but they promote it as a non issue situation to avoid mass TV replacements!  ( like apple : they call a bug as a feature ) read this article here : https://www.samsung.com/us/support/troubleshooting/TSG01108743/ The fraud in that case they don't label this situation on the TV case to let people decide if they want to buy the product including the clicking noise! Samsung hides this issue from customer unless they come accross and do some research to find this official statement.       why 900 Euro extra for LG OLED?? thats way too much..where I live certain models of LG OLED (B7 for example) can be bought for same price as Samsung QLED Q8 or Q7. ...

I hope you guys understand what i mean we made a rod for our own backs.   if the clicking is very frequent and loud (like the video someone posted) I'd return it and buy LG OLED.(the only TV worth considering against Samsung QLED imo) the price difference is very little,infact when I was buying the Samsung 55Q7 I could have bought LG 55" B7 OLED for same price. in my case the noise is very infrequent now and not loud.so I kept the QLED cause I really like the TV. ...

I don't know if I said this before or not (I'm the original topic starter). on my 55Q7F that I bought last January,I noticed the clicking a few weeks after buying and setting up the TV. but after a while it became less frequent.much less. now it's exactly 1 year that I own this TV,and the clicking is very occasional,to the point that for some time I thought it's resolved completely. but it still happens,but very occasionaly and doesn't bother me anymore.   it is still a strange issue and I don't really know why such premium and expensive TV should have this isse? and why even the newer models have the same issue?   I don't buy the "cheap plastic" etc reason some people said,others like Sony and LG use same/ lower quality plastic in their recent LCD TVs too.   people saying retrun it and buy some other brand must realize there really aren't many alternatives,LG doesn't have any LCD LED TV that is even close to quality and performance of QLED range,the only option is OLED TV,but I think people who bought payed this much and bought Samsung QLED already decided they don't want OLED because of it's disadvantages. the only other brand is Sony,it has some premium LCD TVs that do compete with Samsung QLED but I still think QLED is superior with much better design/brightness/anti reflective coating and more vibrant colors,and ofcourse so much better smart features and operating system.       ...

interesting but I don't think I've seen this thing in the box content and now I got rid of the box. I cannot see any slot in the back of the TV,is the slot inside the area that is covered by that plastic sheet? ... View more

I’m the original starter of this topic.. the clicking problem seems to be resolved by itself. it’s now almost 8 months since I bought the TV and during the past 6 months,I heared the clicking maybe 2-3 times in total. so the issue might be related to electronics in the TV being new and somehow adjusting to the produced heat maybe? it’s no longer sn issue for me and hopefully and most likely it will stop on yours too. don’t change it,it’s really a great TV.     ...
