Awesome Tv
I love the bright colors that this TV displays. Even when watching movies that display bright scenes, with a wide array of colors, there isn't any grain so I can enjoy my movies or tv shows. I also love the resolution, youre really able to see fine details like skin and hair so realistically so it makes watching movies on it even better. I do wish I could maybe adjust s...

Dud TV
Had 4 issues in 3 months of owning this tv. The IR receiver went out and couldn’t use the remote. Then the tv stopped connecting to SmartThings. TV was serviced and 3 weeks later the IR receiver stopped working again. A week after that, the screen went black and only sound was coming out.

Amazing TV, would recommend
When i bought this TV, I was originally against the idea despite my previous LG TV dying, and let me just say, I was so wrong. The resolution is amazing for UHD and it was extremely simple to connect and set up. The brightness is also phenominal compared to my last TV, and it all blends in really nicely with my room.

Hi Paul,
Thank you for your feedback on the Samsung U8000F TV. If the picture appears unclear, dull, or lacks definition, there are several settings you can adjust to improve clarity and overall image quality. Go to: Settings > All Settings > Picture > Expert Settings, and review these key settings:
Picture Clarity Settings: While originally intended for motion handling, these can also impact overall clarity
• Off: Disables motion enhancements
• Auto: Automatically adjusts based on content
• Custom: Lets you fine-tune:
o Judder Reduction – Helps smooth out uneven motion
o LED Clear Motion – Boosts sharpness in fast-moving content
o Noise Reduction – Reduces distortion and enhances detail in lower-resolution sources
Core Picture Settings
• Brightness – Controls overall screen brightness
• Contrast – Enhances the difference between bright and dark areas
• Sharpness – Adjusts edge definition; closer to 20 increases detail
• Color – Enhances depth and intensity of colors
And don’t forget to check for the latest firmware, which may improve performance: Settings > Support > Software Update > Update Now
These adjustments can make a noticeable difference in overall clarity. If you need further help tailoring the settings to your preferences or environment, please contact Samsung Support at 1-800-SAMSUNG, 8AM – 12AM EST, 7 days a week. LiveChat is also available via the ‘Support’ link on our website.

Great TV but quirky
Quirky remote control - too sensitive. Poor "previous channel" option. Great picture. Irritating interruptions from Samsung. Not as intuitive as it could be.
