" ... The TV is more than bright enough for a well lit room however in any dark areas of the screen, the reflections will be quite visible. ... "
" ... max brightness is so bright that i can't even look at it. ... "
" ... In reference to "Special Edition" I think it means the bezel/frame Samsung is using on there Q9F line up which is their top of the line QLED in the series. ... "
" ... Also, being a Smart TV it has various options I didn't get on my old flat panel. ... "
" ... Do not make the mistake thinking you will get the same quality as an OLED display. ... "
" ... We have 2 other flat screens in our home which are admittedly a few years old. ... "
