Speaking of the stand, the stand is made from solid plastic and has the legs distance about 48″ to the widest part.

Mounting Samsung 70 NU6900

Mounting your TV is optional, including this one, it’s wall mountable. If you don’t want to mount the tv, the pedestal is also shipped within the box. There are two stands that are very easy to setup.

For mounting, the depth-wise, this Samsung 70 NU6900 model is only a little deeper than the RU7100 series. Therefore it is going to look fine if you consider mounting it on your wall.

The Samsung 70 inch TV dimensions are (with the stand) H 38.2″ x W 62″ x Depth 13.4.

For the standard VESA mounts, it will mount, but you will want to check the length once you have it. This mount (shown below) is the most purchased mount with the tv.

 

The bold is M8 x 1.255 mm pitch, the dimension of the depth is about 23mm, but we recommend a longer bolt.

The backside

On the back of the Samsung UN70NU6900FXZA Flat 70-Inch television, there will be all of the inputs located. There are 2x HDMI inputs, one of which has ARC or Audio Return Channel feature. ARC enables you to “upstream” as well as “downstream” of signals on this HDMI outcome of the TV and just about any ARC-powered A/V units.

There are also a USB 2.0 and an ethernet port, and an antenna input. This is not 2k televisions, but with these inputs, you will be able to enjoy almost everything available on your TV.

Then there is the power button on the same line with these inputs on the back. The input power rating is 110 volts.

Furthermore, if you need more than 2 of HDMIs, you can always add an extra soundbar or HDMI switcher that has additional built-in HDMIs.

Smart TV applications

Samsung adds a smart Operating System to this TV and includes some apps, for instance, Disney+, YouTube, Amazon Prime, Hulu, and Netflix, and many more.

There are some pre-installed apps, and there are apps that you can install yourself. Should you want to download ESPN or other channels, you can easily do so from the Samsung apps store on your TV screen, right on the bottom of the screen.

Sound & Picture Quality

For the audio, not different than most of the TVs, this Samsung 70 NU6900 model features a 20 Watt built-in system. The sound is more than adequate to enjoy most apps, you can try to put the sound on the “amplify” option in the audio settings. But if you plan to watch movies a lot with this television, we suggest you look for a soundbar that will enhance the audio quality of your films.

The featured HDMI 2 that has ARC feature will enable you to use a wireless soundbar or surround sound. Or you can also hood a soundbar by connecting a digital optical cable that is mostly included when you purchase a soundbar.

 

Why this Samsung 70 NU6900 television model? The picture quality. For this price, this Samsung UN70NU6900FXZA has an impressive picture, true HDR and it’s a 4K. The refresh rate is 60 Hz. Although it does not have picture in picture, the vibrant color quality is on the same line with the much more expensive QLED or OLED, and it also costs you third the price.

The remote control that is packed with this TV is the basic remote control. It does not feature Bluetooth but it is a full remote. The 42 buttons with numbers on them are on the top, together with the hotkeys, and menu options. At the bottom of the remote, you will have the play, pause buttons, etc.
