Samsung 55" TU8000 HDR Smart 4K TV with Tizen OS Black

Product Information

That said, the 55D8000 hasn’t got rid of crosstalk completely. There are still minor traces of it to be seen here and there – more, still, than we saw on Panasonic’s 2010 plasmas, in fact. But let’s be quite clear, here: the 55D8000 is definitely a true advance for the 3D cause, and sets the bar high for the rest of 2011’s TVs. Samsung UN55TU8000 review What Hi-Fi? Awards 2020 winner.

Samsung TU8000 TV review - TechRadar

But it’s also pre-baked, so you can’t make adjustments in the Expert settings menu, whereas Standard opens up gamma control and colour space adjustments, for those who like to tinker. Please note: Failure to produce the card and relevant ID means we are unable to release goods on collection. This is one of our favorite parts of the review as the design is very important for a television and a beautiful television can also make your room beautiful. Let’s consider the advantages of the Samsung UE55TU8000 design. First, the frame is very thin and when you place the TV on your wall there is no gap between the wall and the TV. Second, there is only one an almost invisible connection cable. Even if you mount your TV on the wall, the room doesn’t get messy. We give 4.5/5 points for the Samsung UE55TU8000 review part of the design. Samsung UE55TU8000 Price There’s certainly a big enough performance gap for another TV to sit between the Hisense and the Samsung, and we’re pleased to report that the TCL 55RP620K fills it perfectly. It works really well, even automatically adding the wi-fi details it digs out from your device so you don’t have to mess around with on-screen keyboards, which is always welcome.

To have top levels of shading and punch in the same TV is beyond the capability of most mid-range TVs – and it’s the kind of performance you’d pay a lot more for with QLED and OLED technology. The only edge-lit LED we’ve seen of late that comes close to that is the Panasonic TX-58HX800 which, at the time of writing, is almost twice the price (and isn't available in the US or Australia). Today we will go through the Samsung UE55TU8000 review. The Samsung UE55TU8000 review is structured in five sections.

Apart from Brightness, Contrast, Sharpness and Color, there aren’t many settings to worry about on this TV, however a couple of them are particularly significant. This has a massively positive impact on the 3D experience, allowing you to watch 3D for longer without feeling tired, and finally making it possible to see without distraction just how detailed and crisp Samsung’s 3D engine can make full HD 3D material (from Blu-ray) look. Furthermore, the huge reduction in crosstalk also makes the 55D8000’s images seem to have a greater depth, without your eyes having to work overtime to resolve everything. The TVs sensor will detect the brightness of a room and adjust the picture accordingly, so it looks more like a picture than a TV that’s just been left on, which in turn saves power. You can set a timer too, to ensure it switches off after a period of time.

Operation

Last year, it’s fair to say that out of all the major manufacturers’ 3DTV efforts, we were most critical of Samsung’s. While none of the LCD-based 3D TVs really enthused us when it came to 3D (due to annoying crosstalk artefacts), Samsung’s offerings had two other issues that rival LCD TV makers managed to avoid. First, the tri-dimensional modes of the company’s 2010 3D-capable displays were obviously 60hz-centric, because any European-style 50hz video input to the TV showed obvious judder in its 3D display mode. Secondly, Samsung’s 2010 3D LCDs and Plasmas featured poor quality scaling with 3D signals. Scaling in 3D is required for any content that doesn’t deliver Full HD 1080p to each eye, meaning that 720p 3D and Side-by-Side 3D sources were affected. These two issues meant that it was difficult to recommend last The result isn’t as precise or dynamic as HDR can be at its very best, but you won’t find many TVs at this level doing much better. Just be aware that, as is the case with all Samsung TVs, there’s no Dolby Vision support here, just HDR10 and the lesser-spotted HDR10+, plus HLG for broadcast. Of course, this all makes for quite the wealth of content. Thankfully Roku’s Search section is brilliant. Type in anything related to TV and film – actors, directors, the name of a film, TV show or streaming service – and the search will return a list of appropriate results where you can open up the relevant third party service to buy, rent or start streaming whatever you like. Live TV is taken care of by a Freeview tuner with a full plate of Freeview Play catch-up services on board. Few would describe the TV as slim because it swells out to the rear from that tiny bezel, but equally it’s not overweight. For what it is, it looks good, and certainly not cheap.
