Several members have already reported MLL rise with Samsung PNxxF5300 and PNxxF5350 and I am sure that if these sets were more popular then even more people with colorimeters/spectrometers would report the same issue. I am making this thread so that we can find out whether it affects all or only some sets and which sets they are. Some members reported that the issue started after updating to the latest firmware, but I think not - my set's MLL rose without applying any updates. The issue seems to be very similar to Panasonic X1/S10/G10/V10/Z1 models MLL rise, which received a fix after the issue was brought to attention. With these sets - MLL rise seems to happen much faster, but I am hoping that a similar fix can be done for them if enough people have and report the issue.
