That's backlight bleeding and something I think should be covered by warranty

Backlight bleeding is unfortunately not uncommon on all LCD screens. Only way to completely avoid it is OLED
Anyone familiar with this sort of blue blotching issue? Attached photos are from Gears 5 and Little Nightmares on the Series X and an episode of The Expanse on the TV's Amazon app.
I did a factory reset yesterday which fixed it for about an hour before it started to appear again.
The TV is a Samsung Q80T 75 inch. I already had to replace it once due to horrible vertical banding, now I'm getting this on the replacement unit.

Good luck for the battle ahead with Samsung.
If you can snag a refund go get the Sony.

Just wanted to check in on this thread, and find out if much has changed in terms of what I should be getting.
I’am happy to spend between $1,500-2k I mainly want this for sports and playing my ps5.
LG OLEDs are about to reach end of current cycle, could find a bargain on a CXJust wanted to check in on this thread, and find out if much has changed in terms of what I should be getting.

That sucks dude, I would be so pissed off too.This is the crappy "Dirty Screen Effect" I am dealing with now. There is a prominent dark spot on the bottom right. There are also some lighter spots similar to the previous poster (but not visible in this image)

Tomorrow I have Samsung techs coming out to replace the entire panel, after already replacing both circuit boards a previous time...
An absolute lemon of a TV. Apparently after two completed tickets they'll completely replace the TV. I asked them to do this already since that'd surely be cheaper than replacing the panel (they agreed) but it's policy...

I've been always a Samsung person but when I was researching new TVs it felt they have completely dropped the ball and rely on their name now from previous good quality. Like landcruisers sell well from previous generation models.
Owning a sony x900h now, I'm really happy with it. I have no issues that people are reporting. Supposedly their is a blur at 4k/120hz but I haven't played a game for those specs.
Screen quality is really good, very faint DSE in the corners which are barely noticeable in normal viewing.

Oh boy, looks like you're having the exact runaround I did.
Once Samsung focused on the QLED lines the original series really went to sh*t (I think the line is called Crystal now?). We have a new lounge arriving next month and are getting all new furniture for the loungeroom including a TV. I'll probably still get a TU8000 65" for there as it won't be for gaming, just for general watching. No way I'd get one for gaming. I got an NU8000 a few years back for my consoles and I really wasn't happy with it so moved that to my loungeroom and is our current TV while I moved the LG C7 back to my consoles. Will likely get an LG 2021 OLED again for my PS5 this year.
So today they came out to replace the entire panel (which is stupid since that's basically the entire cost of the TV + labor but okay...)

.... lovely job Samsung
So they then had to waste more of everyone's time by re-assembling the existing panel (that at least works better than above).
Anyone have any recommendations on a 40" or 43" TV they would recommend that will be mainly used for gaming via a PS5?
My 4K Hisense TV I have had since 2016 has randomly started turning itself off. Tried a few different things but haven't been able to fix it. Good excuse to upgrade.
Any point to waiting for the new 2021 TV's? Looks like there won't be much around the 40" size range so maybe I should be looking to pick-up a good deal on a 2020 TV?
Might be okay.Would the LG CX 48" be too big?
Might be okay.
You would recommend it?
Nailed it. Lol
