Looking at this TV.

I think it's the cheapest I've seen the 65"

It's the 2022 fifa world cup version so not the 2023 spec but very good price for size and features like 120Hz VRR. What do you guys think?

Nope reports of color banding
 
I ordered a 55U7H via an eBucks Black Friday deal for R6300. I'm coming from a 10 year old 720p 51" Samsung plasma which I had no complaints about but admittedly I don't use it that much, so it's still in damn good nick (no faded colours).

With the new 4K TV I suppose I will watch movies more on it. Any major drawbacks to the U7H? I realise it's still a budget TV, and don't expect perfection so I suppose it should be satisfactory for my purposes?

There is a few people that had colour banding issues, so just take a look for that.

Better to get the Toshiba Z770 for a few hundred more.

U8H is mini-led, Thosiba isn't but otherwise they do look very similar

Makro has both 55 and 65 770 available online for me. I agree, if the 770 was available at the current 10k (think was 14.5k or something) price when I bought my U8H i would have gone for it and saved myself 6k for sure

The feast your eyes are about to experience! The biggest factor in how one experiences their new TV is the specs of their old TV.

Oh so is that a defect that is luck of the draw as to whether one gets it? Is it impossible to miss or does it look like this image below (taken from a YouTube vid)

No it's not that bad and it seems to be luck of the draw, some people get it and some dont, what it looks like is separate colours literally banded, in some cases it's really extreme and in others it's not. Normally colour banding happens from the sources side, but on rare occassions the TV can't decode fast enough.
