QLED and The Frame TVs

Recently got a Q80D, the picture quality is amazing - I've owned a few Samsung TVs and they've all had good picture quality - but this one is unreal. It feels like you're actually onscreen with the characters. Movies feel like you're at the theatre and are cinematic.

I've only had this tv installed two days so I haven't had a ton of time with it but there's only a couple real downsides.

One negative is with the new layout of the smart hub when the tv the tv turns on (see image at top of this post). On my older Samsung TV - see below - the most recent app you had open and TV recommendations weren't at the very top. The first thing you saw at the top was your apps that you installed and put their. I do, however, like the full screen layout of the smart hub though being the first thing you see when you turn on.

Now, instead you see the most recent app and Samsung TV plus recommendations at the top. Also, the TV automatically loads the most recent app after a minute or two if you donā€™t click on anything and it would be nice if it just waited for me to click on something.

It's not a deal breaker, but ascetically I just liked the way it looked before where the apps you installed were the first thing you could click on.

I don't mind Samsung TV Plus - it can be nice sometimes but I don't like it being prominently displayed right on the Home Screen.
